I'm pretty interested in finding out more, since Blake said it was always designed to be 190, as opposed to Spider-Man, which went from 100 to 188 throughout Design and Development and gained the Draftable keyword at some point.

It could be The Hobbit! The main reason I think it's going to be Trek is because it's coming out only a month after Reality Fracture, but if they release the actual dates, I might change my mind on that.

So long as they find a way to mechanically represent the fact that Guybrush Threepwood can hold his breath for 10 minutes, I'm all in on this.

I posted about this last night, but I want to post about it again today because I genuinely think it's an excellent documentary about a subject we don't really explore very often. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3crd...

For anyone interested, this is happening at 1pm ET tomorrow, and each player is streaming their side of their games. I don't believe there's a main account doing coverage. At least not that I can find.

It also does not replace the Secrets of Strixhaven story, which will have its own web fiction!

With the way the economics of publishing currently works, pre-orders matter in a big way! PRH's website has a bunch of places you can go for that!

On Wednesday at 7PM ET, @jimdavismtg.bsky.social is going to be premiering his Pro Tour documentary. It follows Jim and Reid Duke from the testing house all the way through their weekend of Pro Tour: Aetherdrift. I'm very excited for this one. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3crd...

The max points you can get at Worlds is 27, but the minimum is 1, so anyone within 26 points of 1st place heading into Worlds has a shot.
Simon Nielsen had such a lead last year that nearly everyone was shut out. This year looks to be quite the rollercoaster.

Mike Provencher @mtgscribe.bsky.social · 15d

Going into Worlds 2024, we had 8 players competing for the Kai Budde Award. In 2025? We've got 37.

Time to play a beautiful game.

I'll post details in the morning, because I want to triple-check my data, but last year, there were a total of 8 players going into Worlds that had a shot at the Kai Budde award. This year there looks to be almost 5 times that.
