#PAXAUS Day 1 here we come! (After some coffee!)

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 1d

Omw to #PAXAUS now! First official convention as a content creator, and I'm insanely nervous. Super hyped to see everyone and play some Magic though!

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 2d

Who's ready for #PAXAUS this week? Come find me for a special promo proxy <3

Biz Enquiries: [email protected] I'm Tauna, a huge fan and CC for Magic: The Gathering's Commander format. While I may not boast years of experience, my journey through Commander has been filled wit...

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

It’s one of my favorite cards, alongside Descent into Avernus. Either way, I’m really looking forward to your panel at PAX and to hearing more of your stories. Thank you again for everything you’ve done for the game and the community. 9/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

Second, I wanted to ask if there might be a chance to catch up while you’re here; even just to say hi in person. If possible, I’d also love to get my copy of Black Market Connections signed (it’s a key piece in my Edward Kenway vehicles deck!). 8/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

The reason I’m reaching out now is that I’ve been invited to PAX Australia this year as a content creator guest. First, thank you; it’s because of Magic and the work you and the team do that I’ve had the opportunity to build my channel and reach this point. 7/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

from Wizards are both inspiring and motivating. A big reason I pursued content creation was seeing the energy and creativity you and the team pour into Magic. Even when there are hiccups, the willingness to learn and improve is something I really respect. 6/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

I even got my 7-year-old started on Commander recently, which has been a joy to share together. I also want to say how much I admire your work and dedication. You’ve managed to turn your love for the game into a career, and your stories 5/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

the passion you brought to that set completely pulled me back into the game. The Shuffle Up and Play episode was phenomenal, and River Song has become one of my favorite Commanders. 4/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

Magic has been a part of my life since university, however, I took a break and really dove back in around the Doctor Who set. Doctor Who is one of my all-time favorite shows especially the Eleventh Doctor era with Amy, Rory, and River Song and seeing your interviews and 3/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

which Commander precons to grab. It’s been an incredible journey from meeting creators like Tom from AttackOnCardboard to building a community that loves this game as much as I do. Honestly, the imposter syndrome is real, but I’m so grateful to be where I am. 2/x

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 4d

@gavinverhey.bsky.social Hey Gavin, I wasn’t sure of the best way to reach out! My name is Tae Velaris, and I create Magic: The Gathering content on my channel TaunaMTG. Over the last couple of years, I’ve become a go-to spot for breaking speed news and for helping people decide 1/x

This is Merfolk/Human relationship erasure and I will not stand for it

Magic Data Science @mtgds.bsky.social · 5d

Wait -- apparently there are two different illustrations for Supportive Parents in OM1? I think one for MTGO and one for Arena?

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 7d

Commander Party tonight for #MTGxSpiderMan! Promo card for Spider-Ham!

Tauna @taunayt.bsky.social · 9d

HEYO! Look who got to be on a Commander show; here I am playing my Shiko & Narset deck (that I took apart after this because I HATE spellslinger!)

Midnight Mana @midnightmana.bsky.social · 10d

It's time for your fortnightly dose of Midnight Mana!

Lets go back in time, to a mechanic that hasn't seen a printing since 1995, banding!
