All paid Patrons have access to this one. Find out the 3 decks that scare me the most as a Breach pilot this weekend in Charlotte! www.patreon.com/posts/giant-...

Got the Enchant Worldle without having to Scryfall the answer for the 1st time. I am operating on all cylinders and ready for the RC.

At the request of my Patrons, I've updated the Temur Breach guide to include 4 more decks, up to 15 in total. I've also posted an article w/ my list for this weekend, which differs slightly from the guide list, also w/ full SB Guide. www.patreon.com/posts/my-scg...

Writing out Breach SB guides is the absolute worst because every matchup has ~7 one for one swaps.

More Breach Experimentation today. Live 10 minutes from this post until at least 4pm est. twitch.tv/ross_merriam

9-1 on the day. Wouldn't say Saga was unmissed, but I really enjoyed having more lands and in particular T1 Blue sources. Made the deck a lot more stable. Trying Saga tomorrow but maintaining the higher land count.

If you missed it yesterday, my Temur Breach guide is live on Patreon for everyone in the 15$ tier and above.

At 10k+ words, this is the longest article I've ever written. Full SB guide, and attached SB matrix for easy referencing. www.patreon.com/posts/temur-...

Part 2 of my Combo article is up now, all about mulliganing and sideboarding with Magic's least understood archetype! www.patreon.com/posts/unders...

the thing about the word “enshittification” that I hate is that it obfuscates the actual reason everything gets worse constantly, which is “the profit motive”

Two tough leagues. The Breach hate is getting out of control.

Back at it today: twitch.tv/ross_merriam

Live in 5 w/ more Breach testing! twitch.tv/ross_merriam

I know everyone is focused on the PT right now but I just want to let you all know that I ate 26 tacos this week, so who's the real winner?

All 5 of my opponents still in the tournament lost round 7 to tank my breakers by 10 percentage points. I'm here to cash in my complaint equity.

Going live now w/ a Modern Challenge + PT Coverage between rounds! twitch.tv/ross_merriam

Haven't been able to source Tamiyos and Mox Opals for SCG Charlotte yet. If anyone has any I can borrow or knows someone who might please reply or DM me.

"Oh cool, I have a Cankerbloom so I can answer a Leyline this game." ... ... "Well, at least it attacks for 3."

I thought I was dead after my opponent wiped my board and pumped their Thrun with Gix's Command, but then they made the fatal error of casting Dread Whispers. www.twitch.tv/ross_merriam...

New Patreon article is up, about how Aetherdrift changes Convoke and my picks for breakout new cards at the PT! www.patreon.com/posts/convok...

Western liberals love to sell “green capitalism” as the answer to climate change. They act like if we all just buy EVs, recycle more, and go vegan, the planet will heal. But let’s be real—capitalism is why the planet is dying in the first place. Western capitalism is what's killing the earth.

Streaming Standard this week, starting with my take on Boros Convoke. Can the deck work without Spyglass Siren? Let's find out at twitch.tv/ross_merriam

I never thought Emry would betray me like this.

6-3 after a long day in the Showcase Challenge. Slogged through 4 straight mirrors to end the tournament, splitting them after a 4-1 start against the people who chose their deck poorly. Deck is great, but there's a few slots I want to play around with.

After a miserable first two streams this week, today I managed to go 20-1 in games with Allen Wu's RC list, punting the only loss. Breach. Is. CRAAAAACKED.

The liberals smugly asking, "Where are all the student protests?" are intellectually lazy and incurious. There was an encampment at Bowdoin. Columbia students are literally suing the university for targeting them. There was a protest outside a UC regent's home. That's just in the past week.

With Grinding Breach ascending in Modern, I thought now would be a good time to write about all things combo. I break them down at a fundamental level, from how to build them, how to pilot them, and how to beat them. www.patreon.com/posts/unders...

this is really all there is to the trans athletes “debate”

The weather outside is frightful, but the FIRE design is so delightful. More Breach testing starting now! twitch.tv/ross_merriam

Breach is probably broken but I wouldn't know because I played it so badly today. It's hard to lose 7 matches in a row with any deck but I'm not your average dumbass. Back at it tomorrow with a clearer mind.
