Uro is now the most-played creature in Legacy, Modern, Pioneer and Historc, and just won the Vintage PTQ.
Yo
@wizards_magic
, you got any more of them bans? 🤔

Remember
@wizards_magic
Player Rewards? Running until 2011, it was one of the greatest programs they ever had. Each year WotC would send you cards based on how many tournaments you had played. Getting that letter in the mail was always such a great feeling to me 😍🥰🎉
Average attendance for the last 5 GP events of each format.
It's the same when looking at the last 10 events. And while it's less relevant, even the 10 year average favors one format over the others.
Thanks to

for compiling this.

for the EXCELLENT Primer!
Human civilization has sent people into space, to the moon and is looking to conquer Mars. Yet to this day we still haven't found out how to reprint Ungderound Sea 🤔
Just opened one of those "Player Reward" packs on

...and got this🤭
Remember when WotC would actually send Player Rewards to your house every x months, and they were promo Damnation, textless Cryptic Command et al? 🤔

Don't take this stuff for granted.
Support, cherish & be vocal about the quality of Anu's work!

But I also just gives this about 60 seconds of thought. Curious what others think.
🏆🎉🔥I WON THE LEGACY CHALLENGE! Awesome run, lots of great games and feeling supper happy with the list overall ☺️ With everyone playing Force of Negation and slower Delver decks, I felt Elves might be really good right now. Such a great feeling! 😍😁🤪
Karn is everyhwere. We alrdy got Karnacles, Karn & Taxes and Karndrazi. It's only a matter of time until we get Karnfolk, Karn from the Loam, The Epic Karn, Survival of the Karnest, Ill-Gotten-Karn, and the Dave Gearhart classic, Karnidarity.
😍🥳 I WON the Legacy Challenge!! 🏆🥰Had some INSANE matches, especially the final vs on Steel Stompy. Game 3 was incredibly back-and-forth and eventually came down to me winning with SEVEN seconds on the clock to jjkbb2005's 18s. Elves wins back-to-back Legacy Challenges! 👏
All you need to know about 2019 is that Wrenn and Six, the second-quickest ban in the history of Legacy, didn't even make it the final four of the biggest power level mistakes of the year.
🔥🔥 The Legacy Premier League is back! 🔥🔥
Coming to Twitch on Oct 2nd, it features an out-of-this-world line-up, celebrating the amazing format that is Legacy! Check out the line-up & trailer!

I just turned 36. Today was the first time my Mom sent me pictures of her work colleague who might be interested in me. Brace yourselves, single guys beyond 35 😳
OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT!
DAAAAMN, I didn't expect to get invited but I'm sooooo down for this!
🔥☺️😍🎉🇮🇹Hey guys & girls, who else is going and what should I play in Modern? Time for some Dino Belcher or NewDredge?
That's incredibly disingenious
@MagicEsports
. We've been giving you incredible GP turnout over the years, with many of us even flying cross-continent for Legacy.
You have this incredibly dedicated fanbases, that's giving you huge numbers, at your disposal. Use us.
I don't know if I can read this as anything but "good luck on ever getting Legacy GPs in the future"
Disregard the high attendance numbers...350 player Standard GPs are fine..."lowest player numbers" looks like something they pulled off a powerpoint.
Are you ready for some

What bugs me is the absurd pace of new stuff. It feels like there's INSANE pressure on WotC to innovate several times a year. I'm exhausted, and barely even wanted to read how that Dungeon thing works.
They make good stuff, but so much it's like a restaurant with 100 dishes.
It wouldn't be D&D without the dungeons, right?

#MTGWorlds
, disheartening.
Not even primarily because they cheated, but because Marcio never came clean about it. Bart at least had a shitty confession followed by a better one. Vuono even got DQ'ed for Cheating 2 months ago😳
Drew this round against a known cheater to knock us both out of the tournament.
RETIRED!
(Till I spike another tournament and play another PT)
I’m having fun, not dropping, fighting it out at last table!
@BryantACook
"How do you beat xyz?"
Some people never realize throughout their entire competitive career that "You don't" can be the highest +EV answer given the correct metagame constellations.
Also on a micro level: "But what will you do if they do XYZ?" - "Lose."

This hurts to read. I used to look up to Gootecks for the platform he built in the FGC....now seeing him like this is like, I have no words 🙄
Did you even check the banner of your "source"? 😳
Won today's Vintage Challenge with Ravager Shops! 🔥🎉🥳🌟🤩
Deck felt incredibly strong, currently on a 15-3 run with it. Tangle Wire was CLUTCH, and Overseer felt decent too. Definitely better than the Serpent+Forge I cut for it.
Barely touched my SB at all, all tournament.
@SheldonMenery
@PleasantKenobi
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Then again, last year eternal formats in Europe heavily started legalizing proxies. People playing the game is massively better than letting formats die.
HUGE Gratz to

's two major SUPs right now. Kappa Cannoneer is just one of those ultra-pushed cards that are really hard to get right now, creating more of a feeling of "Pay to Win" than I've ever seen for MTGO.
Remember when I posted about the 2 FBB Badlands my friend had found in his girlfriend's attic? (Her brother used to play). They went through everything and this is the final result. Must be like a dream-coming-true 😍😍😍

Prepare yourself Murktide Regent.
Your reign of terror will soon come to an end. And with you, your dark prince Uro shall forever be banished to the graveyard. For Spinal Villain is in town now.
@PleasantKenobi
"Ok"
That is the worst word in a competitive match. Don't use it. It creates a ton of potential for abuse and I've seen way too many games where someone got a rewind by arguing they were merely acknowledging someone had played a spell, rather than resolving it. It's horrible.
@SaffronOlive
In 7th grade, my best friend promised me he'd trade me that card because I REALLY REALLY needed it for the UW Control deck that dominated our school with flying Walls.
Instead he gave it to another guy and it took me several hours to recover from the emotional betrayal.
Favourite new trick I just discovered in Painter:
When your 8-Cast opponent plays Grafdigger's Cage against you and has a creature in the yard, you can use your Goblin Welder to Vindicate their artifacts 💥💥💥
