What's up, Bluesky? I'm Trentyn, and I am probably the biggest Talrand stan you'll ever meet.

This, is #TalrandPosting, the place where I show you my favorite deck: a $20 Talrand deck that I'm in the process of blinging out to it's fullest, most expensive form.

Welcome 💙

The first upgrades I made to Project Talrand. Promo foil Jace's Ingenuity, promo foil Boomerangs, Anticipate and Dissolve, 7th edition foil Unsummon, Onslaught foil Lonely Sandbar, and Shadowmoor foil Spell Syphon, alongside a showcase foil Talrand signed by Tyler Walpole, the artist.

I couldn't give a crap. It literally doesn't matter.
The character has had multiple interpretations since 1992.
Stop playing Magic if you can't be a decent human being.

Just got home.

Having super bittersweet feels. Would kill to do the band thing semi-regularly again but know that that's not really in the cards for us.

Super proud of my friends, had a killer night, played probably the best we've ever played, and can't be happier with our performance 🤘🤘🤘

Only found a few photos so far. My friends and partner were too busy killing it in the pit 🤣

Cube and CanLander are definitely the reasons I'm still in it, and I've dropped my attention to zip-zero-nada for new sets

Fastest 25 ish minutes of my life.

I hate how fast the stage time flies.

But god damn. I had so much fucking fun. I'll upload photos/videos if I can find people who took any 🤣

Show night.

Setting up and soundchecking. Watching a band I've listened to since high school sound check is really cool and I'll never get over it

Born of Osiris soundchecking before the show

One of our drummers cymbal stands just broke right before we're supposed to sound check.

Time for a music store run 🤣

Felt 💙

So yea you could say my goblin ass AuDHD brain has latched on to something else to attempt to feel something again as the weather turns and my mentals swirl the drain.

But I am excited to run/play more RPGs

Trentyn, Talrand's RL Bestie (he/him) @trentyn.bsky.social · 3d

Watching Dimension 20 on Dropout has been easily one of the most brain tingling things for me (it's getting me to want to be really creative i.e. run TTRPGs and the like) while also absolutely a terrible idea financially (did you know the Star Wars RPG exists and I want to own all the books now?)

Me: hasn't cleared off desk in months.

Also me: organized another 1k box of Yu-Gi-Oh cards into its corresponding 5k box and then started sub-sorting rather than finish sorting misc boxes.

Do not clap for this fool (me)

I am both mentally and physically exhausted.

Been doing a lot of big thinkies recently. Have a lot of thoughts on my relationship with Magic, art, gaming, music, blah blah blah.

Not sure where I've landed on most of it yet, but I have enjoyed taking biiiiiig steps back and being less engaged

Trentyn, Talrand's RL Bestie (he/him) @trentyn.bsky.social · 3d

I'm trying to remember which of your games you recommended to me on the old hellsite 🤔

Either way, I'm eyeing Iron Edda like a mofo right now. I get paid Friday... 👀👀👀

Trentyn, Talrand's RL Bestie (he/him) @trentyn.bsky.social · 3d

Hold up.

You might be cooking with Flannelwar Elves 👀👀👀

I FORGOT THE TOKENS HAVE VIGILANCE

Yea... if I put Hermes at the helm of $20 Talrand I don't think I'd ever go back 😭

Trentyn, Talrand's RL Bestie (he/him) @trentyn.bsky.social · 3d

For a similar reason, I'm avoiding putting Hermes in my Talrand list because he will absolutely out perform Talrand in a nutshell haha.

But the 2/2s Talrand makes might eek out Hermes in a long game.

The scry 2 is just so good 😩

I'VE BEEN MUCH BETTER BUT AT LEAST I'M HEALING

I will forever be a Talrand stan, but this is basically Talrand so 💙

I'm listening to their album from last year and it's actually quite heavy. I'm super digging it

Trentyn, Talrand's RL Bestie (he/him) @trentyn.bsky.social · 3d

If you get a moment peep "Wax Poetic" by Capstan. Similar vibes to Untitled imo with some more harsh vocals
