Hidden Gibbon is a channel that welcomes everyone (other than bigots) to the table in Magic. Eventually, I'd love to get friendly SpellTable games set up with folks to play. So, if you've ever felt left out, don't have a pod, or want new friends, this table is always open!

I'm pretty excited. Awesome announcement coming about the Channel. I still can't believe how things have done since starting in June. Very humble and grateful. I can only hope to make a positive impact on MTG, even if it's tiny or one person.

I now want to make a clone deck where the Secret Commander is The Walls of Ba Sing Se and I give them flying. I'm not even going to put walls attack cards in, just make dozens of 0/30 walls.

To put the state of the US in gaming terms:

Most of us are playing a buggy, overtuned survival horror game, while a select few can afford the DLC that turns it into a cozy farming sim with the sole objective of getting the highest score you can.

I know I have already done a depressing channel update only a month or so.

But shit got a lot worse.

So here is a little update, including a call to action RE Patreon because when you take time off as a self employed content creator, it hurts.
Another Rather Depressing Channel Update

Part of the coolest thing so far with doing Commander Deck Techs is the viewer requests I've been getting in with increasing frequency! Brewing is fun. Brewing for others is even more fun!

Does anyone else never disassemble any deck and also just constantly have like 5 decks in various states of construction? Like I hate having cards just sitting, not being in use.
Currently:
Red Death
Cleopatra
Xu-Ifit
Tannuk (RG)
Kratos (mono red) for when that SL arrives.

Me counting the pixels on this show screenshot art. I love the show, but they should've just paid artists for new art interpretations.

So did you miss those “Bloomburrow” style videos?
The newest article series I’m starting on @playedh.bsky.social is called “The Flavour of Magic” where we talk about the Ludonarrative of Magic cards and pair it with a recipe you can make at home.

I'm a big history nerd and I made some historical MTG cards. If wizards did a set or commander product or SL with things like these I'd be all over them.

Friends!!! We all know what this could mean!!!

These changes are well though out and make the game more fun. I am really excited for the hybrid mana change especially. I also like that some super high cost cards are no longer GC like Jin.
As shared on WeeklyMTG today, we have updates to the Commander Brackets beta and new guidelines to help your pre-game conversations with other players!

Many things we consider as luxuries (pets, hobbies, games, access to nature and leisure time, enjoyable meals, art, entertainment) are essential to the human right to happiness and whimsy and should not be considered "unimportant" or "frivolous"
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Here me out. Can we get some form of Commander deck that has real world dinosaur species in it? Like I get we have the ixalan dinosaurs and the JW ones (both of which I love), but give me real dinosaurs please.

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since I’ve weighed in on something on here, but since the influencer team reports up into me, let’s talk about this question (1/5)

"Did those parasitic YouTubers poison the well of our beloved Spider-Man set before you got a chance to form your own opinion?? Let us know who we can blame - over any internal factors - during our next shareholder meeting!"
i don't feel like magic set surveys usually have this question and i don't appreciate the implication that content creators, who do so so much for the game, are possibly to blame for a bad set's poor performance. 👎
