Given current results in the MOCS opens I am now locked for the MOCS. Feels crazy, been working towards this for a long time and finally got there. Had a great season and just have to thank the entirety of the MOCS testing server for helping me have a great list for every event.

Disappointed in both my opponent and the DEC team. At 4-0 I had lethal in play and MTGO just drew the game. Opponent had no dignity and and continued to just play the other games as if nothing happened. DEC team was no help and just told me to file a ticket. Really sad to see

Magic refuses to build their own IP in anyway so it becomes necessary to combine with other IPs to remain relevant beyond the game itself. Impossible to compete with Pokemon and Yugioh when our IP is nonexistent and what does exist is a shitty typed up story

Won the standard challenge with Esper Legends. 29-1 with legends on MTGO between this challenge and Manatraders. Will be writing a guide and publishing it in the next few days leading up to more RCs. Think Esper is the best deck and I have a lot of thoughts to share on the deck.

Preordain is so absurd in modern like wtf. This cantrip is so so so so much better than the alternatives we had before. Blue tempo decks are going to find a new level of consistency and the future of combo decks is bright with a few more additions

@ExpeditionMap Floor judge was great and someone I respect a lot and both him and the head judge explained things to me in the moment and after the round when I inquired further. Nothing but respect for them, especially when they gave me the correct ruling how can I fault them at all?

Queued for the legacy showcase playing Reanimator. I made a lot of grunting noises and put Griselbrand in play, was pleasant
