I'd say that for me it hadn't really felt like we returned to Lorwyn/Shadowmoor until I read these 3 side stories. I should have done so sooner.

Now off to catch up to Strixhaven so I can read @seananmcguire.bsky.social's Omens of Chaos!

Star-Crossed by Akemi Dawn Bowman makes excellent use of the set's premise. It and Much Ado About Thieving by @tobiogundiran.com were stories that felt just so refreshingly at-home in the setting.

Would love to see Tobi return and write more #MTGStory any time!

Okay so is Oona returning???

Three Dreams, Three Truths by @arsenaultrivera.bsky.social might be my single favorite story article of hers to date.

I woudn't mind if she became the point person on writing Kellan/Amalia moving forward. They were rather cute in this.

I'm only now catching up to #MTGStory and in doing so have realized that I never read the side stories for #MTGLorwyn.

My bad, lol these are 🔥🔥🔥

Honestly I would even love to see some typal in secondary colors.

Let's get a Selesnya merfolk, Golgari goblin or a Boros vampire commander.

A small highlight from #MTGStrixhaven for me.

Love seeing creatures depicted off color such as this merfolk on Cost of Brilliance that is depicted as a Silverquill student.

I'm all for more black and red merfolk, white and blue goblins, blue and green vampires...

Woah "jokers are wild" is such a good tag line for Game Changer.

Muah.

As someone who finds myself wanting to like Prismari more than I often do I think this gets to the heart of it.

It's such a simple thing but I really like that since Lorwyn we've been getting more than one pack art per set again :)

My frog guy has just informed me that new frog just dropped.

Acquired!

Can't wait to read what Seanan McGuire has cooked up. Hopefully #MTGStrixhaven Omens of Chaos does well and it can mean much more Magic Story moving forward.

Incredible, no notes.

@magic.wizards.com please keep making cute otters in Izzet colors until the sun explodes.

#MTGStrixhaven

Y'know I feel like we've had spring on Ravnica, Summer on Ravnica, and Autumn on Ravnica. I want to see the next Ravnica set (preferably block pls) show us what the wintertime is like on Magic the Gathering's favorite city plane.

Excited to hear that! Gosh I'm super excited about the book! Hoping it will do well within the community.

Super cool getting to meet you Shivam!

!!!

As a big Mertolk fan, every once in a while I have to re-mourn the fact that @dannyschwartzart.bsky.social's art for Merfolk Tunnel-Guide is locked to an Arena-exclusive card.

Dude it's so good :(

This is the one for this year!

You ain't slick @seananmcguire.bsky.social 👀, how absolutely diabolically cool of you.

After the conclusion of the #MTGLorwyn story it seems the cool merfolk in the promo art for Omens of Chaos is Alandra, likely the daughter of iconic bulk rare Talrand, Sky Summoner!

Kudos, such a cool pull!

Regardless, really interested in whatever in the Jace/Vraska something or other is going on with Tam. Though maybe I'm far off, regardless I love me gorgon cards where I can get them.

With us getting less in-universe story than ever before I think it might not be the time to be shorting us on story chapters please. Lorwyn is a pretty anticipated return, some side-stories at the very least would have been greatly appreciated.

Just finished the #MTGLorwyn story by @seananmcguire.bsky.social!

It certainly has left me looking forward to what comes next come Strixhaven (pre-order Omens of Chaos y'all) but I do feel like that story could have really benefited from a few more chapters of breath room.

Super duper curious about Tam!

Just caught up to the #MTGLorwyn story, right in time for the final chapter tommorow. Wish I could have caught up a day sooner so I could have called the Oko reveal before it happened though.

I feel like he was explicitly intended not to be from Lorwyn when first introduced.

What is your favorite fun fact?

Oh yeah, it's Seanan McGuire let's f*cking go! 🔥🔥🔥

*wakes up*

I hear the bells, after two sets of silence #MTGStory has returned. I guess I'll start posting again.

Probably.

Wait, who's the author?

Wild that Grist was first printed like over 4 years ago and we still haven't seen them in any #MTGStory since.

I mean we've had ample opportunity, insects are the new elves, they've been everywhere in recent years!

I liked the Planeswalker's Guide to Lorwyn Eclipsed. Not revolutionary by Planeswalker's Guide standards but a good reintroduction to the plane nonetheless, great work to those who worked on it.

Really looking forward to the full set and hoping the story gets some room to breath.

In case you missed it! We’re participating in Steam next fest! Wishlist and try our demo!!
