Got three 7-win runs with @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com Selesnya Kona. Deck's great for Bo1; I think I wanna clean up the mana a bit - you need two white mana early. Also no reason for only 3 Evendo. Might cut 1 Seriema for something too.

Finally got 7 wins in @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com! (in Bronze LUL). I've never built drafting as a skill and wanna get better. I draft green + another color (and rare draft lmao).

Might take it more seriously at some point and go back to in-person when I have free time.

5-0 with my version of Kampo's @magic.wizards.com Dimir Midrange. I think I'm taking out the last Sunset Saboteur for a 4th bat or 3rd Tidebinder and then the deck's probably perfect. Also 26 lands vs. 25 feels SO GOOD.

Sideboarding is just 'put better cards in.'

We can neither confirm nor deny the existence of duck building mechanics in Smithy By Day at this time🦆

Another year 100 achieved, this time with Stone Man. Mob is such a fun troop and I think they bugfixed Steel Coat.

New 9 Kings patch is awesome. I may have missed it, but I think they buffed/ bugfixed Greed's base. Having a lot of fun with it!

When you have a 124/124 and still lose next turn. Feels bad for the opponent.

Since Steam is hosting its Racing Fest, Smithy By Day will now be a racing game! Next month, it'll be a rhythm game and who knows what's next!!!

Been having a lot of fun and success with @magic.wizards.com mono white tokens. Just messing around until the @mtgarena.com set rotation.

A closeup of one of the weapon tables, with some very bright lighting hahaha. We've gone back and forth on designing arrows; should we do it 👀👀👀

The lighting and shading stuff you can do in Unreal is so cool. Can't wait to see how the game looks in a few months.

First try @mtgarena.com play-in with my version of @magic.wizards.com Izzet Cauldron. Gecko, Inti and Monument break the deck. Don't react, just be aggressive, trust!!!

We've come so far from the chibi concept art... but I still really like the art style; maybe it can still be somewhere in SBD🤔
