Every year people ask me if I am going to Twitchcon.

Every year I am happy I stay home. It is run by incompetent dipshits

Combining individual strengths to create a dream team is a core part of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Each Partner card in the #MTGxTMNT Commander Deck highlights those strengths and adds a different flair to your path to victory.

This image depicts the Leonardo, The Balance card. Three mana, one white. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle. Mythic Rarity.

Card art: This art depitcts a humanoid turtle warrior standing in a crouched defensive postion with two twin katana held in each hand, his arms crossed to protect his torso.

Rules text: Whenever a token you control enters, you may put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control. Do this only once each turn.
White mana, blue mana, black mana, red mana, green mana: Creature you control gain menace, trample and lifelinkt until end of turn.
Partner - Character select (You can have two Commanders if both have this ability) Power 3/Toughness 3

This image depicts the card "Donatello, the Brains". Two mana, one blue. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle. Mythic Rarity.

Card Art: This is an illustration of a humanoid turtle sitting at an L shaped desk. He has one hand hovering over a keyboard while he turns his body away from the computer and towards a small tube filled with ooze. On another part of the table, a piece of pizza sits on a plate as a rat nibbles at the toppings.

Rules text: I one or more tokens would be created under your control, those tokens plus a Mutagen token are created instead.

Flavor text: "I always thought there 'd be more to the ooze."

This image depicts the card of "Raphael, the Muscle". Four mana, red mana. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle. Mythic Rarity.

Rules text: Double all damage that creature you control with counters on them would deal.
When Raphael enters, create a Mutagen token.
Partners -- Character Select (You can have two commanders if both have this ability.) Power four, toughness four.

This image depicts the card "Michelangelo, the Heart". One mana, one green. Legendary Creature - Mutant Ninja Turtle.

Gonna be nice. I have absolutely nothing I want to buy at Magic Con.

I get to sit and relax and play magic while there. No FF stuff, Spiderman sucks, and I have no new decks being built so I need no cards.

Potentially last Magic Con as well. I am slowly tapering off to disappear from the internet.

Wolverine looks cool. However, don't care, want part 3 of FF7 Remake.

Everything else is irrelevant to me

Erik @thepoolshark.bsky.social · Sep 21

Man... what a game by the @philadelphiaeagles.bsky.social

Erik @thepoolshark.bsky.social · Sep 17

HeavyPlay @heavyplayllc.bsky.social · Sep 17

Life in plastic, it's fantastic! 🩷

We will be debuting early at #MagicConAtlanta! 👀

Erik @thepoolshark.bsky.social · Sep 16

However, they added 400 different spider manses, so maybe they stopped caring? lol

Erik @thepoolshark.bsky.social · Sep 16

I know they are talking about 2026 MTG releases at Magic Con. Is it weird that I wanna see phyrexian stuff again? I got back into it after that set and I missed it.

I also don't give a shit about lore, so I don't know if it is possible to do if they wanted to.
