Sometimes the stack in a cEDH game can get NUTS

Ok episode 6 of the Devil May Cry show did NOT need to go so hard what the heck

The most common excuse I've heard to not run much removal in commander is, "Well, it's more fun if everyone gets to do the thing!" And to that I'd say: the best games aren't just those where everyone gets to do the thing, but the ones where everyone gets to do the thing while overcoming adversity.

Won an MKM bundle from a casual tournament today and got some pretty decent pulls if I do say so myself

I literally spent hours recording footage for this cause I just got so sucked into these games. Star Wars rocks.

It is amazing how much Surveil lands fundamentally change how I mulligan. Keeping a hand with a couple fetch lands that I can use to dig a little deeper if I don't need the mana immediately gives me so much more peace of mind.

Today I have been cursed with the knowledge that the initiative tells you to "venture into Undercity" not "venture into THE Undercity" and now I'm questioning everything

I won a commander game off the back of a clutch Thwart tonight. Reject modernity. Embrace tradition.

If you missed it last week, I got to play one of my sickest decks on Extra Turns: DAAAAAAN LEWIS!!! Also this is Eric's first episode and he's really funny so please give him some love youtu.be/J0rLzAsEfJU?...

Revenge of the Sith is back in theaters. Everyone cheered when it got to the younglings scene. All is right in the world.

I'd love Wizards to work on printing more finishers for commander. We currently have so much variety in the engine/setup pieces for so many decks, but the cards people use to win games feel pretty same-y and have for quite some time.

Honestly if I'm ever playing tournament Magic and someone cheats in a Cheatyface against me, I'll allow it.

Ten of my favorite video games of all time, in no particular order: *Sonic Unleashed *Super Smash Bros Melee *Ocarina of Time *Ninja Gaiden II *Burnout 3 *F-Zero GX *Crazy Taxi *Sonic Adventure 2 *Panzer Dragoon Saga *Mega Man X4

A rainy Saturday is perfect for rebuilding an old deck of mine from scratch!

Ok I officially love Canadian Highlander

Anyone want to come over and play Legos with me

Phew, it was an ordeal, but we got one.

Hooooray my Weatherlight theme deck now has a reasonable wincon woooooooo

Oh no I made the mistake of showing my dad (who has played nothing but green up to this point) some blue cards and now he can't wait to play "the big blue bird that draws cards"

The most exciting part of that Nintendo Direct is that we're getting some of the most expensive GameCube games on the secondary market, like Path of Radiance and Chibi Robo, at NO additional cost to Switch Online subscription members. Huge W for GameCube fans and video game fans today.

After 10 years, I finally convinced my dad to let me teach him Magic. 2 games later of slamming Nissa's Revelation and scrying Ghalta to the top in both of them and I think it's safe to say he's hooked!
