When we're apart, @emmapartlow.com and I send each other cute animal memes. But now that we're together, we send each other cute animal memes while in the same room. It's better.

Experimenting a bit today, starting with an updated Belcher list and then moving on to an updated Opal Broodscale list. Live in 5 at twitch.tv/ross_merriam

4-4 today. Lost a lot of games where I fell short after dredging below average, but that's ultimately the fault of the deck. It struggles to win when you don't hit your payoffs and that fail rate along w/ games where your opps have relevant interaction caps your expected win rate

Well that was fast. I'm glad my airline warned me that I needed to get an ETA to fly to the UK, because I didn't a couple years ago.

5-2, good for 13th. I'm still waffling on MD discard vs Inquiry for explosiveness but currently leaning Inquiry. Wish I had MDed 2nd Conflag over the Darkblast, but not sure what the 15th SB card should be.

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS.

Sign our pledge to not cross a picket line and we'll send you local calls to action - nocontractnocoffee.org

The union is calling on people to boycott btw!!
BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike.

Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%.

Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

My Broodscale Guide has been updated on Patreon with my most current lists. I've also added a full section for Jeskai Blink, the 18th matchup covered. You can access the full guide by subbing at the $15 tier and above, or purchase just the SB guide separately for $10. Links Below
