Assassin without meaningful disruption is a bad aggro deck. Assassin with meaningful disruption asks too many questions with no correct answers

I respect your opinion but disagree with your take. FaB needs a competitive, curated, and supported pauper format to pull players that enjoy the game but don’t want to spend hundreds on a viable deck

We have CC and LL for pushed shit. SAge is a necessary, accessible avenue to grow the game

I imagine my investment will be in a few of the cards for my favorite characters for some wall art, but nothing would bring me back into Magic as a player at this point

Player perception is what it is at this point. Personally, it would take a lot for me to sit down for a game of blitz when CC is right there

While I can’t say that I’ll miss it, or even remembered it existed most of the time, Blitz is how I learned to play #fabtcg and I likely wouldn’t be here without it

Here’s to Silver Age and what will hopefully be a more accessible and balanced format! I’m looking forward to it

I had the pleasure of watching Taylor pilot this monstrosity in the Sonoma top 8! My brain is far too smooth to play this deck, but you smarties who follow me should absolutely give this a try!

I thought the Aurora mirror was great when everyone got onto AB1. Watching players decide whether using Tunic to swing Burn Up Star Fall but open themselves to CLV Sigil was worth was peak aggro

I’m sorry 🥺 I enjoy playing uninteractive aggro decks no matter the meta and enjoy when Gravy asks me a question where the answer is “block,” but can sympathize with wanting a different top end from set to set

SUP heroes being DOA is supremely frustrating

Post ban and he’s still the winningest deck. What metric are we using to track how many of these were pro Gravys and at which point they all DQ themselves from playing more PQs?

Lupinefiasco 🔜 Philadelphia @lupinefiasco.bsky.social · 4d

We’ll see how the rest of the season goes! It’s possible that 15 pro players exhausted their PQ season and Gravy drops as the weeks go on, but I’m skeptical. The deck inherently does broken things

Lupinefiasco 🔜 Philadelphia @lupinefiasco.bsky.social · 4d

How does assassin keep up with Earth’s value or aggro’s damage without its own way to cheat points? Arakni that didn’t see disruption already felt like “bad Cindra,” and that’s the deck list post bans

Gravy topping wins at a #fabtcg Pro Quest level is more than a bit concerning when the discourse around him at B&R time was that top end players were the only ones converting...

Gravy Bones and Cindra have taken the lead in Classic Constructed, but Verdance isn't far behind... 🌹 Could you be the revered hero your local game store needs to shake things up? 👀

Absolutely. LSS seems to be designing wizards that work without Striders, but in Verdance’s case she works so much better with them. Get Kano over the finish line then ban them forever
