magic the gathering edh player, confused adult, and writer
things i ponder late at night: what if final fantasy got one set but they divided atla and lok into two sets to gauge audience tolerance of a given universe beyond
surely nick cant just hate lok enough to not bother right? right???

I'm not cut out to be a magic the gathering content creator because my thoughts on the spider-man universes beyond set are "it would be pretty premature to judge the set based on a bunch of commons in the welcome decks" and that's the most boring position to be in rn

I simply think that if we had a system for Secret Lairs where this didn't happen, we should consider returning to it since we clearly cannot figure out a better way. But idk, maybe I'm not taking the feelings of the shareholders into account.

Magiccon means previews... Excited for edge of eternities, which is almost certainly the near-exclusive focus, but my pipe dream that will never happen is final fantasy jumpstart product for the end of the year. If spider-man gets the set box treatment, why can't ff get that holiday money too?

The thing about the impending stream of Marvel Comics Universes Beyond sets is that my Marvel experience has always been incredibly minor characters no one cares about so I'm ready to be Disappointed, but fortunately it's marvel comics so ive been training to be disappointed my whole life.

Well I guess I'm building Fang and Vanille for my lgs's pride commander event now!!

actually i dont miss most magiccons because i "cant afford them" i miss most magiccons because of a cool secret different reason

"I probably won't make any new commander decks for the new Tarkir set" is maybe officially the biggest lie that I've ever told myself

I wonder if I'm the first person on earth both purposefully watching Ken Burns's Country Music and building Magic the Gathering decks while I do.

Taking a moment to announce that I will not be at MagicCon Las Vegas. I know many were hoping to see me there, but it just cannot be. You see, I haven't created any actual content yet, therefore I have no money. Sorry to my fans, which would have been very useful in Las Vegas, and also my followers.

Today's @moxfield.com deck project: Duskana but with no bears! Just convergent evolution giving us a bunch of other 2/2s! Many picks for this deck definitely aren't "thing I had lying around"!

and if you can believe it, it's a bear once again! - Commander (Duskana, the Rage Mother)
A deck created using Moxfield.

Reading today's magic story and man I don't know if this is how I'm supposed to feel but poor fucking elspeth being an angel sounds like it sucks

me: well im disappointed in the specifics but overall i think universes beyond is suboptimal but not the worst thing in the world, surely there are some good discussions about it happening

Not to get into a habit of non-mtg posting but looking at the Pokemon Legends Z-A rivals being opposite-genderlocked like "oh i smell an epilogue child"

Second magiccon over! Let's see if I can write cursed enough mtg journalism to pay my way to Georgia.

It looks like my magiccon experience is gonna wrap up without running into either of them again, but such as it even slightly might interest @kathleen.loadingreadyrun.com or @graham.loadingreadyrun.com I did in fact put out that video game I mentioned! I am below Rob Liefeld no more!

Magiccon Chicago is going to be so funny for me this year no disposable income no buying cards no ticketed events just vibes

Excited to play some magic this weekend aaaaaaaaa

Didn't finish my essay on queer identity in magic the gathering in time for MagicCon but it's FINE it's not like I'm one of the famous folx
February 21, 2025 at 2:13 AM
I have like 1-2 cards still coming in for three or four different decks I've been putting together for #MCChicago and every day the mail doesn't include them I panic a little more!

It's going to be cold in Chicago next week for MagicCon, and lots of people will be visiting from warmer climates who aren't used to the cold. Malort is a drink designed to keep you cold when the wind comes roaring in off the lake. Drink it early, and drink it often and you'll be just fine.

I have written 1200 words of a very stupid magic article and im starting to wonder if I should actually post it somewhere when I finish.

Writing an essay for fun on lgbt rep in magic and wild to see Ravi Sengir listed on the lgbt rep but with no indication why in her article. is it because she's left-handed????
