Didn't get the arm slot memo apparently...

Stayed up until 2am Friday night watching the Mariners clinch the alcs, concluded the only reasonable option was to cancel all my plans and make the drive to Toronto to see them live. Had an incredible weekend and made it home just in time for game 2!

you know it was a good magic tournament when you come home to 12 wholly unorganized stacks of cards strewn across your desk

For PT EOE I brought a weird build of Affinity and took it to a 7-3 finish! Here's my guide to the deck:

Big thank you to @tristan-mtg.bsky.social and @stefanschuetzmtg.bsky.social for their help in reimagining this archetype

Rollercoaster weekend for me. Started 0-3, ran it up to 10-4 to give myself a shot at worlds, then lost the last two rounds to miss. Still processing everything but happy to walk away with 2 more PT invites.

Very happy with the affinity choice. Deck guide + tournament report coming soon.

Third we have 3 players on Affinity. The Handshake take on this archetype omits typical inclusions Thought Monitor and Metallic Rebuke in favor of more cheap artifacts.

For tomorrow's Pro Tour I'm playing a very sentimental card. This Mox Opal carried me to day 2 in my first ever Grand Prix - Modern Masters sealed - over 10 years ago! Some cards just stay with you.

The Seattle Mariners have unlocked a new winning methodology in pro sports

❌ Invest capital to build out infrastructure across analytics, player development, sports science etc.

✅ Pay a witch on Etsy $15 to cast a fortification spell on the team

The @Mariners win their 4th straight behind home runs from Josh Naylor and Randy Arozarena!

Final: Cardinals 3 (72-74), Mariners 5 (77-68)
Pictured: Josh Naylor screams after hitting a go-ahead home run. He wears a home white Mariners uniform.

Went down a deep eddie guardado rabbit hole after seeing this, apparently he is 25th all time in games pitched??

(Stat seems pretty biased towards relievers with long careers, fellow M's legend fernando rodney is 20th)

had fun and even won a few matches! list I'd "recommend" here - don't think this one is taking down the next PT but you can get some turn 3 kills and have a good time 🙂
