Purely as a spectator, I’m hyped until proven otherwise.

True, but you wouldn’t need collated packs for that.

That’d be interesting, although it would also suggest pick 2 draft for RF which isn’t ideal. You could have Good Jace/Evil Jace in a pack, but it’s hard to imagine those wouldn’t be the same rarity

Draft fundamentals like play “13 lands, Karoos are completely broken” and “you can splash basically any two colored card if you have enough signets?” 😜

I choose to think this is cannon

It doesn’t replicate pick 2, unfortunately, but I’m interested if the top two voter getters would go in the same deck from my pick 2 desert cube: cubecobra.com/cube/p1p1/00...

There’s a setting to fix that

Go check out this amazing podcast our Galactic Architect Alexis was on!

drajjon (Alexis) @alexisjanson.com · 7d

I did a podcast! On the latest episode of Beacon of Creation (a Magic Design podcast) we break down the design of Once Upon a Galaxy, and discuss what the "Magic" version of its mechanics might look like. A ton of fun, lots of interesting design tidbits!

The closest I can think of is Dralnu’s Pet. The cost depends on how strong you want it to be, but typically a cheat effect like this would be about 4 mana.

Shelby almost certainly died in Picard season 3, but I like to think that her iconic haircut lives on on the heads of teenage boys across America

TrekMovie.com @trekmovie.bsky.social · 8d

Happy birthday to Elizabeth Dennehy, Commander Shelby in the #StarTrekTNG two-parter "The Best of Both Worlds," promoted to Fleet Admiral Shelby by the time of #StarTrekPicard. Showrunner Terry Matalas has suggested she survived. 🤞

We’re getting a cross over between cannon magic and licensed properties, including Transformers. And they’re bringing over the triple faced cards from that game to Magic!

My favorite conspiracy theory is that those penny press machines at museums and zoos aren’t actually defacing US currency, they just swap the pennies out for the souvenirs as you turn the crank

Is there maybe another co-designer you forgot to credit?

Nick Floyd @magicstorytime.bsky.social · 12d

I’ve not seen the full Dandan Secret Lair. I don’t really care if I get credit or anything from it. Rhystic Studies and informed players know its origins. I just hope I’ll be able to own a copy of the official release and not have them sell out to scalpers and stuff like I’ve heard can be a problem.

I’m not entirely sure how this deck wins a match, but I love that Scepter Chant is still a contender in 2025
