One of my 7th grade students designed and illustrated his own card game with rules and everything!!
If you think this is cool, please leave him some feedback here so I can show him!

My heart is beyond full from an incredible weekend at
#MCChicago
! From folks coming up and saying hello/thanks for the podcast to Wizards giving us a chance to do the live recording on the Mana Stage today, this weekend was an absolute dream!!! Thank you all so much!!!!
Thanks to

for allowing me to show you this

card from
#MTGKaldheim
!! Get ready to draft those snow lands highly because Boreal Outrider is a reason to do so! Also, check out the new
@LordsofLimited
tonight for our thoughts on the card!!
ONE Apologist here - this format has stuff to offer if you follow the rules of engagement, and drafts heavily reward finding the open lane because of the distinctive archetypes. I’m having fun so far! 👀👀👀
In case you were wondering, Arena forces a draw when both you and the opponent have Cloudsteel Kirin equipped and no library for a few turns. I was really looking forward to settling in for a battle of willpower and infinite tokens... 😅😅💪💪💪💪
Opened
@17Lands
for the first time to compare my top commons to the data for the podcast. Was stunned to see this in the top slot by all users and top users. No data sarcasm for once: am I missing something about this or is the data off it's rocker?

Discord! You can Run Out of Town in response to your opponent's family fetchland triggers to get rid of the target for good. ♥️ the LoL Discord!
🏆 4-0 in draft one of the Open - shoutout to UG and shoutout to
@lordtupperware
- don't think I'd have built this version without him. Time to draft again soon!!!!! Let's gooooooo!!!!!!!
We are THRILLED to announce our partnership with
@ChannelFireball
! Both Ben and Ethan will be contributing Limited content to CFBPro, videos to their youtube channel, and LoL is joining their stellar podcast network! HYPE!!!
Ethan took the high road for our team, but I’ve got no problem talking trash. Looking forward to dunking on Team Resources in this draft!! I’ll put up 🌯 🌯 🌯 if Team Resources can scrape together 5 wins.
@Marshall_LR
and
@abaeckst
are really going to have to carry
@LSV
though.
Arena Open PSA: Disdainful Stroke is a house in KHM Sealed - I think I'm playing every copy I open if I'm blue, and it's borderline splash worthy. Card keeps going up the more Sealed I play.
The
@wizards_magic
design team that created the Double Masters 2022 limited format needs huge props!!! The format enabling all the wedges and shards while having all the archetypes feel meaningfully different without turning into 5 color soup is an incredible success imo. ❤️❤️❤️
Went 0-2 with some 💩💩draws in the LR v LOL showdown with this. Grats to Team Resources on another victory - still have a blast doing these even when they mop the floor with us!!
Big day!!! Just got my second vaccine dose and the release of
#MTGStrixhaven

🏆 4-0 with Sultai 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️ in Draft One of the Open. Huge thanks to
@lsv
and
@Marshall_LR
- wouldn't have been able to draft/build this correctly without the latest episode of LR! See you all for Draft 2 for the first time ever!!!! Let's go!!!!!!
You get it all as a public school teacher:
Had a kid bring me homemade chocolate chip cookies this morning
Also had a kid break a pencil I provided for him into a million tiny pieces and leave it on the floor
Everything in balance ☯️
Just to even out all the Arena Open winning posts, I did 9 bullets yesterday and had some absolutely brutal losses to not queue for today. Good luck to everyone competing today - jealous I’m not there with you!!
Just finished a life coaching session with
@SamuelHBlack
- cannot recommend his services highly enough for life or magic. Easy to talk with and he has a great ability to boil lots of information down to key insights/decision points.
Thanks to
@wizards_magic
for allowing me to present Exhilarating Elocution as my free preview card for Strixhaven!! I can only assume this is how my students feel when I teach class...
Is it coincidence that
@wizards_magic
sent me this
#FreeProduct
for the first time ever just before the
@LordsofLimited
v. Resources showdown, or is this is WotC secretly letting us know that Team Lords has their blessing and will be whitelisted for the draft?! Get hyped!!!!
My mom sent me a photo of my MTG stocking from when I was a kid. Young Ben just casually sneaking a Black Lotus in the middle of the wishlist. I wonder what big plans I had for these cards...🤔🤔
❌🏆❌Trying to keep everyone's twitter feeds real here with the Defeat image. Lost a LOT today on stream - Diamond is forever as they say. Huge thanks to
@AndrewCuneo
for the raid!
Queued on the 5th bullet with some aggressive resigning on my part with bad decks after getting home from marching band at 1:30 AM. Not sure if it was worth or not 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Twelve players went 3-0 in the first
#MTGWorlds
Wilds of Eldraine draft! By color, they played:
Mono-White
Mono-Black
WU x 2
WR
WG
UB
UR
BR
RG
GW, splashing Red
UG, splashing White
Not sure what the best way to express this or to help is, but I want to make my position clear: racism and police brutality are not ok.

Small town things:
We moved out of my childhood home in 2002.
The current owners are redoing the cabinets in the basement and found these cards - knew my mom still and gave them to her because they guessed the cards belonged to her kids.
If only they’d found some duals…
