I finally got around to making a Linktree! Here it is:

Careful though—if you click the link, you increase your risk of spending as much time on Magic as I do 😨

From trainwreck(?) to 2-1

You love to see it 😄

Bizarre! I maintain an artifact cube and I had no idea that blue has no Modular.

That said, I’m still waiting for each color to get a Splicer… I can understand black not having one, but it’s really odd to me that red doesn’t have one either.

Kavu in EOE came close, but it seems like that’s as close as we’re getting 🥲

On another note, check out this foil Sea Snidd that a friend signed for me last week!

The upgrade to Void Snare that Geistwave was to Disperse, neat!

I wonder if Avatar will give us a Council of Five card

Don’t worry, I made sure to take the draw too 😉

It cost me $76. Far from cheap, but I can’t help but feel a little lucky it was under $100

This weekend I drafted one of my favorite formats: Invasion Block, aka IPA! I went 3-0 with Jeskai—I mean, Raka 😎

I had drafted IPA before on MTGO, but never in paper! I can now check "draft IPA in paper" off my bucket list 😁

Wow, that is way sicker than I would’ve guessed. And yet, I have to wonder whether 4 Karnstructs would’ve done the job haha

Also I gotta ask, what happened in the Door to Nothingness game?

Thanks! Gruul control in peasant makes me think… Savage Twister? Curious what else you were running. And I know that experience of finding that other themes are supported better

A year ago, I noticed a high density of pips and a dearth of fixing in the Horror Cube, so I drafted a couple monocolor decks and trophied both.

This year, I tried a second color but still drafted a staggering number of pips. No clue if 12-8 mana was right, but it worked! 🏆 😄

Cool! I’ve gone back and forth about supporting Elves in my own 1MV cube. Glimpse of Nature seems like it’d be great in this deck :)

Still a ways out from being draftable, but I recently got excited about Sylvan Library + Terminus in GW (another controlling color pair) www.cubecobra.com/cube/overvie...
Cube Cobra Overview: Color Pairs Inverted
If you've played a lot of Magic, you're probably accustomed to white and red aggro, black and green midrange, and blue control. But what if those meta-archetypes all shifted? Enter my colorshifted cub...

Not a vintage cube, but one of my ongoing projects is a cube where color pairs have reversed roles (e.g. RW is control, UB is aggro, etc). I’d like to think that not only will RW not be OP there, but hopefully it’ll be novel, too!

Except for Bolt, the top 7 look good to me! Wonder if that bodes well or poorly for me, haha

I have no skin in this game, but it bears mentioning that the flavor text doesn’t seem to fit a big mana rock

Fine by me—I always thought that was a bizarre interaction 😝

That’s right, vigilance is another great pairing with exert! I guess that would be true even if it used stun counters, haha

Random MTG thought of the day: if Exert were designed in 2025, it would probably use stun counters. Because Exert didn’t use stun counters, it ended up being much stronger with untap effects than it could’ve been otherwise

As a sort of blend between Implement of Ferocity and Candy Trail, this seems like an interesting option for my artifact cube…

but given the vitriol these cards have been met with, it’s currently a nonstarter for me 🙃
