🏆 This weekend has been so incredible and it's pretty fucking nice to be on the train for a while. See you dorks in Barcelona for unfinished business 😤
Going to Phoenix!!!! Thanks y'all who sent positive energy my way, y'all know who you are ❤️🥰 My cousin who lives out west is due with her first child leading up to the event so this trip is extra important to me! Catch y'all there!

@MagicEsports
Opponent messaged me with these kind words. Even if nothing changes for me besides raising awareness about MODO being particularly bad right now, congratulations to them <3

Outpouring of support this weekend has been truly humbling and incredible, nothing feels quite real yet but the amount of love has been truly staggering. Much love to everybody who reached out or rooted for me & to those I wasn't able to see this weekend with all that happened ❤️
I told y'all to listen to me if you wanted to win the event 😜

Had a ton of viewers all day, thanks to y'all for tuning in and making my day better!
In the finals of the MODO PTQ, client said I timed out with 5 seconds left instead of letting me take my turn and attack? Is there anything that can be done about this?
@MagicOnline
@MagicEsports
Quickly skimmed the matches from the Pioneer PTQ for all players who finished 6-3 or better and wrote down the archetypes. Enjoy this snapshot of the forming metagame 🙂
Finished second today to qualify for DH San Diego after winning the challenge yesterday 💪 this deck is pretty absurd, shout out to
@dtlerch
for the initial list & chatting about it! Deck probably needs a better plan for leyline but damn y'all should be playing this
Hey
@SCGCON
, why does SCGCon Syracuse not have a vax requirement while the Commandfest y'all are running not long before does? Is that a mistake or are y'all dropping safety measures deliberately? Pretty awful to see this move away when cases are rising again!
Procrastinated till the last possible moment but q'd for RC Dallas today 🤪

@kanister_mtg
especially for breaking standard. I wasn't able to prepare as much for this tournament as I wanted to with moving so the work everybody else did was of tremendous help, much love y'all ❤️
Finished the night of testing with a 5-0 from what I consider to currently be the best Urza PO deck (credit to
@MatthewLNass
for inspiration)! If you're planning on playing a release weekend event, this is where I would start. Excited to battle some week one modern at

Said goodbye to our Queen today. Goodbye to our little Miranda. She was my first cat & always will be my first cat. Poor little baby deserved so much more than the hand she was dealt, didn't quite make it to ten years before cancer took over. Oh my poor poor baby. No more pain 💔
Put this off for too long. Not the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last time. It can be hard but don't be afraid to take care of yourselves, y'all ❤️
Pioneer bans, whatever. Something was due to happen and they've always prioritized keeping delve legal. This though? I don't know a single person that echoes this sentiment in modern 😭
My mom found this while digging through the basement, talk about a nostalgia blast sheesh (getting this + pokemon Red is one of my earliest memories 😭)
Great stream today, crushed it (53-11) with this deck to climb from Plat IV to Masters. Took the list from
@RuneclawBarich
and tweaked it a bit after some matches a couple of days ago.

Shout out to the squad

and
@Nammersquats
, was a lovely weekend despite going out in T4. The streak of making elimination rounds the weekend after my birthday remains alive hehe 😇 was great to catch up with all the other homies too, really missed these vibes ❤️
The good green decks in this format don't even rely that heavily on Veil so while I'm glad the card is deleted I admit to some confusion about what they are trying to accomplish here. How many cards have to die for OUAT's sins?
Team
@SanctumOfAll
is still recruiting for PT Barcelona! The team is dedicated to making a home for players of marginalized gender at every level of competition but currently has no restrictions on applying. If you are interested in joining the squad, please reach out to me :)
first pass at explorer, ledger shredder very good in this format too hehe. have plenty of other ideas to try but this seemed like a good place to start. The drake/velocity joke isn't necessary, should probably cut 1/1 to have the oxen main, 2 strangle should be flame blessed
made t4 of pioneer challenge before punting it all off after being awake for 30h+ 😴 straight UR approach to this sort of shell felt significantly better than the rug ones going around earlier. would really recommend trying this going forward👀
Oregon has become the FIRST STATE in the country to decriminalize possession of small amounts of all drugs, including meth, cocaine and opioids. This is a big deal.
Being open about mental health is important ❤️ going to therapy is one of the best things I've ever done. The stigmatism surrounding self care is just one more relic of older generations that needs to be swept out.
Beware of MODO user ammazzanator, they trade scummed me to time me out in the standard challenge today after spending the whole match salting off. Gonna report them too but
@MagicOnline
really needs to address this problem.
Really sad about the state of the game and the state of OP. I've poured so much of myself into this game and gotten so much in return but it just seems to all keep crumbling. Not much more to say, just feel kinda empty about it all.
It's MOCS Showcase time again this Saturday - 8 of MTGO's best battle in Vintage Cube & Modern for 2 World Champ slots & $70k in prizes! Coverage starts at 10am PT at Magic's Twitch Channel () - Viewers' Guide up now:

8-2 on the night with the first draft of Outcome Urza with Emry. The card is really impressive so far with little attempt made to optimize it. Mox Amber becomes playable with it which increases your speed a little bit. I thought I would hate witching well but it's been great!
It's been more than a week since
@SCGTour
announced the invi is going forward with no vaccine requirement and we still haven't received an update that they plan to change that 🤡
Rooting for Ikawa to take the whole event down now, this is past embarrassing and well into downright disrespectful from WotC. Get that bag 💰
@WanderingOnes
!
have been sick all week but i trophied with this updated prowess list today. pretty confident in stacking up on YP being the correct approach. will try to stream the challenges this weekend, should be feeling well enough finally 😊
Have been feeling a little lost on how to build Urza lists lately so I thought I would try out what I think is the most underplayed deck in the format and it feels even better than I thought! Definitely gonna have to put some work into this and consider it for
