Magic Gatherer, Phone Tapper, occasional disc golf thrower. Aiming to do enough of these that I get tax forms for being good at them, that’d be kind of neat.
Hot takes are my own.

If I had a nickel for every time the team captain for a Professional Sports Team from Indianapolis had a career year derailed by a torn Achilles knocking them out for a full season in 2025 I'd have two nickels.
Which isn't much but it sucks that it's happened twice.

13-0. Big 10 Champions. Beat Ohio State for the first time in my life. Heisman on the team.
I can't believe any of this. Hoo Hoo Hoo.

Hoping a #MTG historian can help.
We know Izzet decks are strong in standard. Been the best color pair for 8 months and got 7 cards banned in two waves.
But seriously, when’s the last time UR has been this good? Was there a STX/KHM control deck? Was it KLD/SOI energy?
Let me know what I missed!

@cubecon.org was generous enough to include Lucky Paper Radio’s 100 Ornithopters cube for open play.
It took two tries but I finally got a 3-0! This lets me name and doodle on any Ornithopter I drafted.
Presenting the newest addition to the ranks of the Named:
Ornithopter #39 - Biomass Mutant

4-2 at the Cincy Club CubeCon today! Went 2-1 in both pods, only losing to the 3-0 both times. Had a blast and a good tuneup for Madison in a few months.
Cube 1: Combo Cube. No worries, just make crazy happen with perfect fixing.
