Got my 3rd trophy with my current fav deck in Cube: UR tempo Vivi. Also hit my $500 goal for the charity event and it looks like we smashed the $20K goal overall, which is awesome. Thanks so much to Breakthrough for organizing, and everyone for donating!

If you are planning to do a Vintage Cube draft on @magiconline.bsky.social please check out our #VintageVsType1 campaign to raise money for type 1 diabetes research — something very important to me and my family.

Make a donation, get some draft tokens, pick a champion.

I'm drafting Vintage cube over on the Misty Twitch for Vintage vs. Type 1! It is a charity stream to raise money for Type 1 diabetes research.

Donate to this great charity here: http://dlvr.it/TNQ5kg

And watch the stream at twitch.tv/mistymountaingames

@seanfennessey.bsky.social massive fan of you and your show. Best podcaster in the biz imo, and your show is a guide for my movie watching and a listening highlight of my week. Thanks for your hard work!

Mike fills a massive void in the content/news space. MTGScribe is a great source for updates at all time but especially on PT weekends it’s great to keep up to speed with standings when you can’t watch coverage

Mike Provencher @mtgscribe.bsky.social · 11d

I don't run ads on my site, so if anyone who found my work useful this weekend is interested in financially contributing, I have both a Patreon ( patreon.com/MTG_Scribe ) and a Ko-Fi ( ko-fi.com/mtg_scribe ). No worries if it's not for you, but I prefer this to ads!

Yup, I’m basically pick for pick with you in that log, sometimes there just aren’t gold cards and the good cards you see are enemies

Ethan Saks @lordsoflimited.bsky.social · 13d

A couple enemy color pair trophies in SPM which may have more archetypes than meet the eye (that's different IP though)

tagging @neo-mtg.bsky.social for value

Congrats! Also nice to see some positivity around the format

Ethan Saks @lordsoflimited.bsky.social · 16d

"Folks, pick 2 draft, very greedy. We've been picking 1 for many years and now they want us to pick 2? Twice the picks and half the supported archetypes... It's a terrible, horrible deal. And this set? Very small. Teeny TINY. One of the smallest we've ever had. I like big sets - HUGE..."

If you had this dream and didn’t listen to our latest bonus episode, I’ll be shocked!

Also, thank you for your dream solidarity. A minor GRV, c’moooooooon
