He, him. A transplanted Canadian, Bruce used to write about Magic and podcast about Magic. Nowadays, he looks forward to dropping dice from the sky in his next game of EDH
How many games per year do you play each of your Commander decks?
I get in roughly 9 games per year with each of my decks.

Just used to bathroom on the train. I think the woman who forced open the crappy locked door was more scarred than I was!

Unfortunately stopped at a draw bridge stuck open. Luckily I have no connection to make. I also have this beautiful view to gaze upon.

I opted to bring Grenzo, Muzzio, and Brudiclad to Unplugged. Between those and @andrewmagrini.bsky.social new Cube, I should be good for all things Magic this weekend!

I discovered my duffle has a tear in it. If anyone going to Unplugged has some duct tape I’d appreciate it!

On my way to Unplugged! Part 1 is a quick train to South Station. No idea that the train would be packed on a Thursday!

Played our semifinal floor hockey game tonight in 35 degree weather against the #1 team in the league. I scored 3, including one with 3 seconds left to tie the game, 3-3. Overtime settled nothing so off to a shootout. Our goalie was invincible, stopping all 6 shooters. Our 6th player scores to win!

Running my biggest program of the year at work today. 111 people here and another 200+ online. So far, everything is going smoothly! And with last night’s Magic game going late, I’m running on 3 hours of sleep!

Magic at my house tonight! Yolanda is making homemade sourdough pizza for the gang, so I guess I can call this the official reopening of my Thursday Night Magic at my house!

Early morning 1v1 Commander. Nissa was taken down by a much faster Trelasarra, Moon Dancer. Trampling commander damage wins games!

Played 8 games of Zombie Dice with a very hyper 9 year old niece. I believe I’m 2-6. Apparently I don’t shake the dice hard enough (according to her).

Got in a great Commander game last night! Ragost did great things but ran out of steam at the end. My friend played my Gale deck and just would not be killed. The deck showed more resilience that it ever did when I played it! He was eventually taken out but fought valiantly to the end.

Building a new deck. Have added everything I think should go in. I’m at 157 cards. Who makes the cut?
Step 1: Do I own the card. That goes a long way to getting into the deck.
Looks like a nice afternoon hanging out in front of the card catalog!

The real issue from the announcement isn’t hybrid mana but separating Bracket 2 from precons. Make all future precons at Bracket 2 so new players can learn how to make decks better.
Current precons are like giving folks a Lego set that is already built.
