Random Bundle Sealed at CommandFest Tacoma. I got Dragon’s Maze + 1 SPM booster. I have no real idea what I’m doing, but my cards pulled me in one direction.

Yes, that is a Cosmic Larva on the battlefield in a game of Commander in 2025 CE. You wish you could be part of this playgroup. (Or maybe you don’t.)

Putting together a new Commander list, and as usual even my conservative first pass gives me 116 cards. Three-color, 37 lands, 4 rocks and sad robot, can’t touch any of that. This is always so hard…I guess I could keep the mana separate, ask opponents to pull cards at random and then shuffle up?

1. THE PRESIDENT CANNOT MAKE CRIMINAL LAW.
2. IN TX V. JOHNSON (1989) SCOTUS HELD THAT FLAG BURNING IS PROTECTED BY THE 1ST AMENDMENT. SO EVEN A LEGISLATURE CANNOT BAN IT.*
*Fun fact: J. Scalia used to point to TX v. Johnson as an example of how principled he is bc he voted w the majority.

A good thread from a smart person.
ok something came up at work so i want to do a game design thread.
let's talk about the virtue of selfish design.
for starters, a game designer is in almost all cases a gamer. they play games and usually like playing the game they're making/working on. and have thought a lot about game structures.
