Three Blind Mice is a forgotten card, but this fun Bant deck for Standard plays it alongside a bunch of other enchantments as the way to win on the MTG Arena ladder.

Only gripe was the women's CJ match could've been about 5 minutes longer. But, I imagine with the Cena match and men's CJ match going as long as they did, it was a time constraint.

Oh trust me, even when we've joked about doing it, there were tons of folks riled up to be part of the conversations, so there's be nothing wrong with it being content in that regard.

If people are happy watching us be geeks, that would be the easiest money. 😉

You could fill 30 minutes just talking about the Cena match by itself.

He probably did. And likely believed it until they found a path to rig it. Now you won't hear about again I bet.

So a Felon47 supporter bought Dominion Voting and rebranded it to Liberty Voting.

Y'all know it's rigged now, right?

Dominion Voting Systems, which was at the center of false fraud allegations in 2020, has been sold

The election machine company is being rebranded as Liberty Votes.

Bet you forgot how crazy Manifest is. This Standard Simic build plays stupidly large creatures for basically FREE starting turn 2. And Turn three happens a LOT on MTG Arena games.

Should I bring planes from the Unknown Planechase event to CommandFest Vegas? I think I have set from each of the past couple of events.

Also, you can come play against me all weekend. Get tickets here:

I don't know about all that. I do know they are missing some of the nicer simpler things in life though.

Selesnya Rabbits was still playable, but these additions were surprisingly good and led to a 9-4 record on the MTG Arena ladder.

You and me both.

I agree. I was truly stunned at how many people were overly worried about sanitation and such from those carts. It's hot, fresh, and hardly handled in most cases. I'll take the gamble.

PowrDragn @powrdragn.bsky.social · 3d

Oh I bet. That's probably one of those carts that's sold out in 3 hours too.

I just saw a thread on another site, where people were upset that folks have food for sale from random carts outside of events.

That's some of the best food I've eaten. Carts, street vendors, bicycle trolleys, tailgaters...if it's good, I'm grubbin'. 😁

InfiniTokens are the best version of this product produced by someone that has supported and continued to support the MTG community.

Make sure you aren't buying imitations. Make sure your friends know to buy form the correct source.

This Gruul aggro deck feel more old school, and it doesn't play any mice. You can have some fun with this on the MTG Arena Standard ladder.

This Selesnya midrange deck makes use of landfall, counters, ramp, AND tokens. It's a super fun deck for Standard and is competitive on the MTG Arena ladder.
