I picked up the Dragons Secret Lair at #MCAtlanta so I HAD to use them in a deck. Just ignore the Door to Nothingness and the clone spells. Yup just dragons...

This week's episode was a wild one. We all picked 5 cards that had to be in all 4 decks. So 20% of all of our decks are the same. What did we all do with the other 80%? Who knows.

Just got an odd compliment from a customer. He said I was "soothing to talk to." I mean at least its a positive interaction.

With the theater show being over, I find myself with a bunch of time on my hands. If you need a guest or just an extra #EDH player, hit me up. I'd really like to play with you.

I'd like to hear some of your thoughts on my list so far.

Uncle Russ @uncleruss.bsky.social · 1d

Next is Control. This one is Dorothy.

Prim and proper on the surface, not allowing anyone to have fun, but under the hood requires some sophisticaton and passion to really get going.

First up, we have the Aggro archetype. I put alot of thought into this one, since I was leaning towards Blanche.

In the end, I decided Aggro is Sophia: Spicy and Mean out of the gate, but with a hidden warmth that can make you happy.

There are a few #MTG deck archetypes across all formats. My sleep-deprived brain has decided to sort a few of them into #GoldenGirls characters. 🧵

@jollysaintclick.bsky.social @jarvismoonbeam.bsky.social @genericcommander.bsky.social @hamhocks42.bsky.social There is a non-zero chance this will include Dauthi Voidwalker, Mesmeric Orb, and maybe, JUUUUSSSST maybe a Syr Konrad. Ya know, the #GenericCommander staples.

Yeah, I was looking at something else when I was typing. I'm leaving my jackassery for the world to see. You can even see the set code in the pic LMAO

I chose MKM. While I initially didn't like the set very much, there are some cards that have really grown on me. I can't imagine building anything in Red without Screaming Nemesis.

Uncle Russ @uncleruss.bsky.social · 2d

Someone at work asked me if I could choose only one set to build a standard deck in, what would I choose? I think this is a great question to the community as well. So #MTG friends, what set would you choose, and why?

Uncle Russ @uncleruss.bsky.social · 5d

I’m getting more and more sold on this set. Maybe it’s nostalgia but I don’t care.

The Eastman/Laird art on Doubling Season is just chef’s kiss. This 89’s kid is sold. #mtg #tmnt
