Qualified for the Manatraders Swiss with Greasefang! Got to scoop my last round opponent, which feels great. This deck rocks, but please stop playing Stitcher's Supplier, that card is extra, extra cheeks.

I WON THE $1K!!!!!! Ran super hot, got lucky in places, my skills carried me in others. I will be posting my list and sideboard guide later tonight!!! 2-1 against hammer, won against 5c zoo, dredge, uw control, and yawgmoth

Yeah that makes him money though. By having trans people on his show, more trans people watch his show, which means more money for him. The voices he chooses to amplify when money is not involved is indicative of character and ethos
@OriginalOestrus
“I can only be anti-racist because I was a horrible racist, directly to people, in my day” is such a terrible thing to say, you should truly feel ashamed of yourself and the damage you’ve caused. You do not deserve the following you have.
Scored a 4-1 with Mono Green Painter in a

league! I beat 4c beans x2, delver, and red prison, lost to ub scam. Honestly, this felt pretty solid. I felt that not getting game winning cards w/ saga in sphere lands felt weak. Will replace veil with Legolas's reflex soon
I just really love Amulet, it's my match made in heaven. Every sideboard card pulled weight, but I'm a little less interested in trackers and spouts going forward in paper events. If I were to run it back, I would go -2 Tracker, -2 Spout, +2 EE, +1 Cavern, + 1 Boseiju
@ecocd
Probably more than you think because he’s trying to assimilate other content creators’ audiences into his own, and a large portion of the magic player base is trans. Even if the amount is small, if it’s above 0 it makes biz sense, right? Posting Joe blowgan is a personal choice
You fired your content creators, removed coverage from magic events, and now you have very little regard for protecting human life? I was going to attend some of your events this year, but that’s no longer my intent. The industry standard is safety, at least try to keep up

Yes, because you’re still diluting the espresso with water, then flavoring with milk. A latte cuts the water out entirely

Indirectly and unintentionally, you’ve got it. Until social safety nets improve to the point of complete security, it is an unreasonable risk to reproduce
I need to talk to Upgrayedd
Finally retiring my original Titans that I’ve used since I picked up Amulet. These babies have found thousands of lands throughout their life, but the old border is just so sexy
SCG is slipping, the whole announcing event details only 30 days before said event sucks. The

10k is going to have so many fewer players than it would if we knew about it for months. I’m worried that if this flops they will never do legacy again.
So. As an autistic member of the MTG community, I feel obligated to address the Extra Life Secret Lair.
50% of proceeds go to the Autism Center at Seattle Children's Hospital, which uses Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy to "treat" autistic children.
Let's talk about this.
After so many 4-1s over the past few months, I finally did it, I trophied a

League! But it wasn't with a GSZ deck... it was with Blue Painter! I knew the deck was good and I tweaked it until I was happy, and I love this 75
@fireshoes
I played Amulet in the NRG event yesterday and went 3-3, and had exactly zero fun actually playing magic. The only fun parts of this weekend were being with friends, and that’s great, but not enjoying magic fucking sucks.

I wish it were funny, as opposed to systemically intentional. The bourgeoise controls the media, and whatever narrative they want to spread will be spread. The only hope we have are independent journalists, and you can see how they’ve been getting treated.

If you got injured at a protest, you’re probably going to accept medical care from the person in medic equipment, as opposed to questioning their credentials
@6fifths
Nothing like loading up a car full of people on a Sunday morning, opening a shit pool, piloting it just as poorly, x-3 dropping, and eating egregious amounts of shitty (read: amazing) Chinese buffet food after. My fav parts about MtG are from pptqs, and Wizards took that away :(
This virtue signaling is why causal magic content creation sucks. The successful people get off on tokenizing marginalized people, and claim it’s their virtue when questioned
@PascalMaynard
I work at an LGS that mainly sells singles. We have seen an influx of foils and ext art cards because of the amount of collector boxes that customers open and sell back to us. If we opened product for the sake of inventory (we don’t), we would open draft or set boosters

Hey Assren, how many americans died of covid yesterday? Similar amount? More? Well the pandemic has been going on for a year and a half now, and we’ve lost that amount every day, but no sweeping policy changes ever happened. Sit this one out oldie
@MtgRack
This is not a good look, you can’t just doxx people (especially my locals) when your opponent doesn’t scoop to you, they don’t owe you anything
Lost in the finals of a Store Champs today with Amulet. Karn was fire against my opponents today, I would not recommend including the package in a blind meta, but it worked out
3-1-1 and locked for Top 8 for the 3rd event in a row!! I’m playing Karn-ulet, and Karn ended up being a pretty bad decision, but it’s okay when you draw 2 amulets
@andersoneclair
Unfortunately I think this will harm the future of the format as a whole. It would have been sick to drum up interest in the format with full coverage, especially considering there’s a handful of relevant cards not on MTGO
My latest brain-child, Golgari Elves in Pioneer. G1 you don't interact much, but post board you can end up in a grindy midrange shell. Deck is insanely bad against boardwipes currently, might want some Heroic Interventions in the side. Coco is fun
5 Color Domain Zoo now has perfect mana, and the only change I had to make to the manabase was swapping the Sultai triome for the Grixis one. Excited to take this deck for a spin. I have been on Shardless Agent for a while before this, but

Do you think that’s a good thing? That you have to pump your body full of stimulants just to not fall asleep while chopping carrots? Capitalism has chewed you up and spat you back onto the fucking asphalt
@blesstherain13
Genuine question, when I interact with someone who is hard of hearing/deaf in my ‘retail’ job, I usually just grab for a pen and paper, as I have found that to be easier, especially considering I don’t know ASL. Is this socially acceptable, or is it disrespectful?

@TolarianCollege
It’s so awesome to have a channel dedicated to the newer players, both for learning the game and for deciding what products to buy. Really fantastic stuff. I feel confident showing the channel to new players without even having to watch the video I sent them. A+
I don’t like beer, I prefer seltzers, but I'm Wisco born and raised so I have beer opinions and still drink beer regularly
Notes:
Corona must have a lime. D tier if it doesn’t.
Spotted Cow out of a keg is S tier. I imagine the same is true for Summer Shandy
@bajabitchin
Get a nice, warm coat, decent boots, and warm socks. If you have a car, put a bag of sand/kitty litter in the trunk, and keep a blanket or two, mittens, a hat, and a road flare. Jumper cables are optional, but you might need them.
Personal update, I have left twitter and the majority of my involvement in magic behind to spend more time on developing my CNC and 3d printing business. I will likely stop using this account altogether. It's been real, and it's been fun, but it hasn't been real fun yknow

Currently playing around with 4 Color 80 card Maverick, and I came up with this when contemplating cutting white. Here is what I have landed on, and I will be playing some of it this week. Jund Zenith has a nice ring to it

Do you though? Do you need the opinion of your coworker on Magic stuff, if they know nothing about Magic? Do you ask your auto mechanic for their opinion on your legal issues or your medical care?Here’s a hint; you shouldn’t, just like you shouldn’t have said anything about this
@ValerieFatality
The new Pokémon set, Scarlet and Violet, has silver bordered cards instead of yellow, and it will be like that moving forward. Also older Japanese energies will be silver bordered as well

Never EVER give up.
Got the "Jund 5-0" with a brew on the first try. I present Scam Sun's Zenith, a deck that looks terrible and is only slightly better than that. Beat RW Init, 5c Zenith, Doomsday, and Ruby Storm. Lost round 5 to Prison. Super happy with the result but I cant recommend the deck

Correct, I wouldn’t be alive if my birth mother had access to reasonable birth control and abortion services. She essentially did not have a choice as to whether or not I would be raised in poverty. This works as intended in the system, as I am more likely to be a low wage worker

I just want to be gendered correctly by my friends. It doesn’t feel like it should be that difficult to change the pronouns you use for somebody
Skipped an RCQ again to play some 2HG Duel Commander with a friend, and we won with Jeska/Silas Renn and Wilson/Noble Heritage. We were the bad guys today, as we played a total of 12 turns of magic over 3 rounds, but I can happily say I’ve won a competitive event with this LAD
