Top 4 at realm 20k. Congrats to the winner
@brodiespurlock
I know exactly where I messed up in the game I lost on stream. My heart was just not in competing today. I received some bad end of life news on one of my dogs this morning and I’ve been crying on the inside all day.😭
Top 8ing a calling has been a huge goal of mine and I’ve finally done it! I’m gonna take a week or two away from FAB now. My mental health isn’t 💯 with all the prep that went into Pro Tour Baltimore. It was great seeing everyone this weekend. Safe travels home.
ProQuest Season 3 results
5 events all on Fai 31W - 6L
2 gold foils.
I think the ProQuest tournaments are flawed. They encourage players like me chasing gold foils to gatekeep players who want to qualify for the Pro Tour. The prizing is too top heavy.

My fai list barely missed top 8 today with
@JacobABaugh
taking it to a 9-3 record losing in his win and in. I went 8-4 with it. I have a budget version and a list that specifically targets iyslander by fatiguing her. I’ll share those in the comments later
I come to these events to test my skills vs the best players in the world. I’m incredibly thankful and thrilled to have gotten to play against
@Hadesblade
and
@MATTHEWFOULKES
today :)
@Pintorpin
Not a you thing. The majority of players don’t want to play sealed at a tier 3 tournament. The feedback from past sealed Callings has not been positive.
BH ATL - I stay collecting Ls on stream 0-4 currently. Local homie baked some fab cupcakes for our armory event to celebrate my win over Brodie in top 8 🙃
5-2 at the Battle Hardened
Teammate went 6-1 both of us on Lexi. I still believe we are in a play Oldhim or beat Oldhim meta. Surprisingly Lexi has a good shot at it. I believe there are 2 Lexi vs Oldhim BH Richmond games that will be uploaded to ManSants channel later this week.
Jacob Baugh and I are looking for a testing group to prep for Worlds. If any group is looking for 2 active players send me a message. Willing to contribute our decklists and sideboard notes.

@TheTallTimmy1
I disagree with your take. I think there is a vocal minority of players like yourself who haven’t touched Talishar in months and look at the game from a old school nostalgia perspective. Talishar is just TTS with automation. A spoiled card is fair game to start testing with.
I will be at Battle Hardened Richmond this weekend for playing Lexi. Hopefully I can break my stream curse. I’ll post my results and some thoughts after this weekend. 🤞🏻
@Nathan_TCGz
I hope no changes. Let heroes have their moment in the sun and LL to eventually rotate them out of the game. What they did to Fai and Viserai is a shame and should not be repeated.
I dropped from US Nationals with a 5-2 record after I didn’t feel confident my draft deck could 3-0. I played in the Calling and ended up 19th out of 830 players with a 10-3 record. I rarely make mistakes in tournament play, but fatigue got to me and cost me some games.
@FlukeAndBox
Are there any plans to improve the armory kits participation promos? I’d love to see a tournament pack or exclusive alternative art cards available only for attending local armory events.
9th at Lille Calling 2022
I had to go to 1 health vs briar. If I didn’t I was almost sure to lose unless they just drew a dead hand. I went to 1 knowing I could threaten 7 arcane to win the game. Opponent top decks sigil of suffering in the 4th card of their final hand. Big sad!
@CardsWithM
@fabtcg
@WatchFlake
I admire the people who can be gracious in losing. Seeing Brodie lose a win and in or a top 8 match, then immediately jumping in to cast the next streamed game with so much positive energy, is inspiring.
@Malakxy
I don’t understand why some dislike XP invites. XP leaders are pillars for their local community and are damn good players. I’m happy that LSS recognizes and rewards these dedicated players.
I finished 5-2 on Day 1 at US Nats after going 1-2 in draft. I’m thinking hard about dropping to play in the Calling. The math works out that I can only make top 8 with a 11-3 record if I took the final loss in round 14. 😐
@KuganeGaming
@fabtcg_online
yeah, I change my name on the leaderboard every once in a while as a gag :)
It's funny to be at a ProQuest, and my opponent asks everyone who is Elden Lord.
@KodachiOne
It’s fine…. I’m kind of tired of top heavy prizing. The events feel more fun for the majority of players when there’s not a $600+ card on the line.
@matt_iwnl
You’ll get ‘em next time papi chulo.
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan.
I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam.
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures, man.
I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was phat.
@MinMaxGames1
@james_white
This is my most prized card. I told James in Lille purchasing this tunic was the biggest leap of faith I made into FAB. This tunic has seen battle with me in over 1000 games.
@OfTheTaco
Big agree. I like that I can bring up the skill level of my local players so that our city out performs the other cities in our state come RTN and PQ season
@instantspeedpod
@BryanGo
If LSS has a better way to build prism2 that players haven’t discovered yet then they should demo that build in their ProQuest Gauntlet YouTube series.
@KuganeGaming
FAB needs to go back to online armories and online skirmish events. The time between sets is too long and small local communities get burnt out in between.
I’m sure some FAB teams or trusted community members are capable of hosting fair online events.
@SpoofyKJ
Tournament booster pack (random) for all participants. The tournament pack includes needed reprints of cards like tunic, command and conquer, along with CF WTR and ARC heroes. Top 8 players get a second tournament pack.
@BrendanAPG
@fabtcg_online
FAB online is amazing. I’ve been using it for a couple months now. I’ve been saying to locals get on there or get left behind. The people grinding out games on FAB online will be winning tournaments.
@talishar_online
Is Talishar for practice or serious tournament play? IMO this goes against the spirit of what Talishar was designed for.
This feature is kind of silly for how salty people can get.
@Kacey_raSera
@CayleMccreath
Armory promos don’t have to be lame though. They are lame by design currently. They could get rid of cold foils and put them in the booster boxes where they belong and print desirable alt art promos that are only obtainable at armory events.
@talishar_online
This seems like a tiny issue but if you wanted to make a change just create a prompt like you already have for rematch that says your opponent wants to turn on manual mode Accept / Decline.
@PheanoBlack
I think this got attention because people are looking to improve at the game but the majority of fab content out there lately hasn’t been focused on how to level up.
@bmkibler
I think all everyone is asking for is inclusive products. The majority of players who have put years of their time and energy toward MTG feel left out of a really cool product. If they are just proxies why not price it at something reasonable like $9.99 a pack.
@talishar_online
I use both but over the past month have really forced myself to use the new view as much as possible. Highlighted are some things I'd like to see improved upon.
#1
Hand counter seems unneeded.
#2
AP counter seems unintuitive to new users what it is representing.
@BrendanAPG
I voted NO.
If one of the best players in the country can’t make top 4 at a RTN event then they can use their PTI they were awarded for winning the previous event.
