Lily got 1st today at Disney Lorcana league! 3-0 with LilyFasa kudos
@Humble4538
. It was so encouraging to see new players - I played a 10 yr old who was playing his second game ever and he had a blast. Closed out this season with Lily in 7th and me in 6th place.
On burnout and renewal in our community:
I have immense gratitude to all who've blazed trails and those who'll carry the torch forward. I created
@LorcanaFanatics
because I wanted to share our adventure and set a good example and model for Lily about content and community. 🧵1/6
Won my first round of Lorcana league ever! 🎉 Usually we don’t make every week so it’s pretty much impossible to get 1st place over 4 weeks! This win was only possible because my partner took Lily to a bday party last week and her piano adjudication today. 🙏🏼

I feel so lucky to get to experience this game and community alongside Lily!
Thank you
@ravensburgerna
@disneylorcana
@proplaygames
and the Lorcana community for an incredible experience!
#DLCChicago
And... I'm going to the Disney Lorcana Challenge in Seattle! Lily won't be able to join me on this one, but I'm excited to compete and grow as a player!
An Illumineer walks into a local game store and asks, "Do you have Lorcana on draft?"
The manager smirks and replies, "Nope, we only have Magic on tap."

Lily did amazing in her first tournament
@Game_Kastle_Aus
w/ 54 players. She went all 6 rounds, winning 2! Very close to 2 others - losing by only 1 lore. Grateful to have a great community to play with! Thanks

So proud of Lily for participating in a set championship today! She’s got her favorite stitch sweatshirt, her Pikachu bucket hat, and her new

It’s been an amazing day! Lily and I got to meet Matthew and watch him sign and doodle cards. Never seen so many enchanted Elsas and legendaries in one place 😱!
Disney Lorcana artist Matthew Robert Davies is in the house! Thank you all for coming to meet Matthew and drafting with us, we're having an amazing time!

sleeves are fab, the card scanning feature is so smooth, and the gameplay gives a unique feeling between a TCG and board game!

Happy August, everyone! It's the start of my birthday month! Going to open a pack a day from the Disney Lorcana Ursula's Return booster box we got from
@l0gan__tayl0r
until my birthday on 8/24. Will post those pulls here - the best kind of birthday cards!
Shimmering skies - it finally happened! Lily and I pulled our first enchanted across the first 5 sets of Disney Lorcana 😭. Found Archimedes 🦉 in the last pack of our booster box!

Lily crushed all her games today, including a 4th game because we had odd players. Matchups below:
Ruby Amethyst 🔴🟣 (2-0)
Emerald Ruby Discard 🟢🔴 (2-0)
Amber Amethyst Aggro 🟡🟣 (2-0)
Emerald Steel 🟢⚪️ Discard (2-1)
I couldn’t be more proud of her!

Lily had her spring piano recital today - she was a little nervous but she did a fantastic job! It’s been a busy spring but with dance and piano recitals completed, time to enjoy ourselves with lots of Lorcana over the next two weekends!
Numbers tickle my brain - we are following 800 people and 600 people are following us. It’s like a partial eclipse! Thanks for everyone who enjoys following Lily and I as we experience Lorcana together - we are grateful for your support and hope more families enjoy Lorcana too!
Update on Lily’s pin collection - thankfully our LGS included us in the raffle - we won a Set 2 logo pin! Also huge thanks to
@SunscorchX
for helping Lily complete her collection with a BLT 🙌🏼. It’s hard to believe this adventure started 5 months ago - onwards into the Inklands!
Lily and I went to a sealed starter deck event yesterday
@Game_Kastle_Aus
. They always host a fun experience for everyone! Lily got the Madrigal Magic 🟡🟣 deck and won her last round (2-0) with Mirabel’s Saving the Family ability. Hope everyone had a good release weekend! Time
Hard to believe Lily and I started this X account a year ago to chronicle our Disney Lorcana adventures. Thank you for following us and we can’t wait for year 2! What are some of your favorite moments?
#MyXAnniversary
Headed to set champs… my first major TCG event. I haven’t “competed” in something since college (decade and half ago). Remembering all those 🦋 feelings as a good thing - I’m excited! Thanks for all the support!

@Game_Kastle_Aus
surprised Lily with an Illumineer’s Quest for her perseverance and performance at her first set championship. 🥹 We are grateful to have their support and lucky to have a welcoming LGS community in Austin! Thank you 🙏🏼
@RavensburgerNA
for creating
New kid and mom came to league today - ziploc bag starter deck. Had watched some YouTube videos but playing for the first time. It was such an enriching feeling to make them both feel comfortable and teach him this magical game! Hope Elijah comes back next time!
Best antidote for today - took my youngest daughter Annie to a new Lorcana kids casual format today (Lily had a bday party). They gave her a Cindy promo card and she picked a few cards from the bulk bin. Seriously - the bulk bin is better than the dentist office’s treasure chest!
Thanks everyone for the bday wishes! Had a fantastic party with family and friends! We went all out on a Shimmering Skies carnival theme for decorations and food and I got to build my first Disney Lorcana cube to draft with 9 fellow Illumineers from our local community.
Lily’s mom has been busy transforming her room into the Great Illuminary! Can’t wait to show it all off when it comes together. Can you guess which items are on the bookshelf? 🥀
✅ Play Lorcana at an LGS in another state
It’s definitely a different feeling showing up to a new LGS - especially when you’ve spent the day traveling. This was a good milestone building up to the Lorcana Challenges. It’s wonderful to find the Lorcana community IRL all over the
A different kind of Lorcana finance/budget post today. Here's a breakdown of our costs all-in for attending DLC Chicago and why it was the most cost-effective one for Lily & I to attend. Hope it's helpful for others looking at their budgets for future DLCs:
- Airfare: $22.4
Marry someone who says:
- I love you
- I’m proud of you
- I'm grateful for you
- You can’t target my Cogsworth or Kuzco with Let It Go, but you can take the play back, even though it’s the set championships
Marry someone who says:
- I love you
- I’m proud of you
- I'm grateful for you
- Once during your turn, if this Pokémon is in the Active Spot, you may look at the top 2 cards of your deck and put 1 of them into your hand. Put the other card in the Lost Zone.
Excited to hear one of the LGS <30 min. away has been approved for the Lorcana Set Championship! Still keeping our fingers crossed for the one that is much closer to us.
Atlanta: The Phantom Goat 🟣⚪️
Chicago: Attack of the Flutes 🟡⚪️
Fort Worth: Revenge of Sir Hiss 🟡🟢
Bologna: A New Goal 🟡⚪️
Toronto: Doctor Bivens
Birmingham: The Bivens Strikes Back
Seattle: Return of the Champion
NA Nationals: The Goat Awakens
EU Nationals: The Last Meta
How we spent our Sunday afternoon: Lily and I went to a Learn to Play event at an LGS where I’m now coaching new players. Lily helped me teach someone and then she had some homework. New player had watched some Magic streams before but they had almost ZERO context about Disney 😯
Was doing some spring cleaning this weekend and found this Disney pin from our honeymoon 🚢 from over a decade ago. Can’t wait to bring the girls on their first Disney cruise later this year!
Love this photo - Lily had a great time! Thanks for being an awesome LGS - can’t wait for the Ursula’s Return sealed starter deck event in a few weeks!
Lily and I are excited for our last sealed event of

I'm sharing my thoughts with a bit of levity through Lorcana cards while we're processing as a community. If this resonates with you, please share your thoughts. If it doesn't, please let me know too.

Lily and I went to a Lorcana sealed starter deck event today and picked up our pre-order box! Lily had some close games playing 🟡🟢.
@MTGMarco_
does a fantastic job bringing the vibes - they had Hawaiian leis and mini beach balls along with gift wrapped starter decks!
My 6 yo daughter played so well today at our LGS 🟡🟣! She went 2-1 and hung in there like a champion. Ended the season with a booster pack where she pulled BLT, and also got a Yzma promo, and a Lorcana pin from lottery.

Surprised with breakfast in bed this morning for Father’s Day! Lily drew me my first playing card! 🥰
Daniel - Illumiteer Father. 4-4-3, quest for 2 inkable stat line (doesn’t get Medusa’d).
Ability: Fatherly Love - If you have a character in play named Lily or Annie, they
Annie (Lily’s sister) turns 4 tomorrow (Leap Day Baby) 🥳 She wanted me to share that her Lorcana store is now open! Going to be slipping a few packs into her birthday gifts throughout the weekend!
Had convos today with two different LGS in different parts of the city. Both have not seen product flying off the shelf with Set 5. Both have leagues that are barely firing (<4 regulars). LGS A attributes this to the fact that Lorcana caters to a more casual player base that
Lily wouldn’t be able to play Lorcana if it wasn’t for the support of her mom (taking care of Annie while we’re at league and set championships)! Hoping we can play more as a family with the new co-op Illumineer’s Quest!
the perfect moment yesterday: playing Lorcana with Lily in the trunk of our car while Annie took a nap…
there was a nice breeze but not enough to blow cards away… enjoying the weather before it heats up here in Texas
Congrats to

@illumiteers
was the support I didn’t know I needed. Thank you to them and everyone who has welcomed us to the Lorcana community!
Haven’t given this much thought until tonight: what does storage and protection for the Illumineer’s Quest look like? What sleeve colors will we use? I’m thinking clear DragonShields for the beautiful gold Ursula scenario cards. Can’t really tell what the playmat looks like -

You all made it happen. Although the main tweet didn’t meet the criteria, many people liked and responded to quoted tweets…so we counted them.
It was an experience 😅
