My complete thoughts on a phenomenon I've dubbed "Never played through a standard rotation before hysteria." It seems to affect Pokemon players at a much higher rate than Magic players.

You love to see it: card draw, card draw, and more card draw. Luckily, Kara's brewed a deck that really lets you fill your hand. By @karamelapple.bsky.social #Commander #MTGxFinalFantasy edhrec.com/articles/ult...

With a Yawgmoth's Will in the command zone, we can easily turn Emet-Selch, Unsundered into a Bracket 4 Storm deck. #Commander #MTGxFinalFantasy @karamelapple.bsky.social

Can we take the Legacy Lands deck and convert it into a Commander powerhouse? Let's give it a try in this edition of 60 to 100. #Commander #Legacy

Happy mother’s day!

Osha absolutely HATED being a mom, so she’s wishing an unhappy mothers’ day to all the shitty moms out there.

If your mom is/was a shitty mom, I’m your mom now. Go drink some water and take your meds!

Commander as the Standard format intended. (On my new gorgeous playmat by @senordoom.bsky.social)

This particular gambit always makes me happy as hell when Ephraim pulls it off. Because the point is, both aspects of it are true.

And these people keep walking into it.

men think when women say "it is all men" we mean to eradicate the entire gender. because when they blame any group for something, immigrants, women, etc. they do mean to eradicate them all

I wasn't a fan of Alchemy in the beginning, but recent Alchemy design has done a good job winning me over. My only gripe is that this could definitely be a paper card and it should be because I want to put to Rhinos into play soooo bad.

New article is up! This was the first deck that I wanted to cover when the possibility of writing this series came up and I'm very happy with how it turned out!
(Maybe one day I'll get to write about my Oathbreaker version of this deck, too 👀)

On this 60 to 100, Kara takes the Collected Company deck from Shadows Over Innistrad and turns it into a blink-heavy Commander deck.

Everything makes sense if your entire worldview is that when bad things happen to others it’s their fault and when something bad happens to me it’s part of a global conspiracy.

Correllary: if you know you hate playing against something, speak up. Dont clam up in rule 0, then moralize about the cards you dont like during/after the game. No one is a bad person for playing a deck you dont like.

Newer players dont always know what cards are considered miserable to face.
You included those cards because you like them, own it! Its OKAY to enjoy "evil" cards! But if you're knowingly including effects that people consider miserable to play against, you gotta be able to take the heat that comes with it. Either stand behind the cards you choose, or don't play em.

Another day another successful draft of TDM. Double Jeskai Shrinekeeper was nuts. I took Cutter P3P1 without many cheap spells to reliably trigger it and I got a ton of value out of it regardless.

Another day, another P1P1 Ureni

I liked alot of big IP at their peak. Sonic, Pokemon, Power Rangers, etc.

But "they're a part of who I am"? Nah. If the creator of Pokemon was basically like "Lol, Black people don't deserve equality", you best believe I'd stop giving money to Pikachu immediately.

Yall gotta be stronger than this.
