I just uploaded a what's-the-play video to YT! I want to work some shorter, more digestible stuff into my work, and this is where I'll start.
In this video, I analyze a Thoughtseize from one of my recent challenge runs.
Please check it out, and let me know if you like it!

Chat @jamiewvh.bsky.social and @mriggins.bsky.social definitely cooked, this was the easiest trophy I've gotten in a while. Who even is Dark Ritual I don't know her
Not pictured: an 11/6 Solitude with 2 Formalwears and a Chainsaw equipped that inspired me to put BFG Edition into the stream playlist
Chat did you know that being a parent and having friends means that you find yourself going to birthdays a lot of Sundays, anyway I'm going to birthday parties the next 2 Sundays
So I'm returning to my roots and streaming a league the next two Thursdays, starting tomorrow @ 7:30pm!

A nurse. A researcher. A helper.
We can debate the appropriate level of enforcement of immigration, but we are in Fabric Of Society territory here.
My son’s favorite evolution simulation youtube channel.
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

A big shout-out to the DNT Discord members already picking up and killing it with ⚡💣RW💫😺. I am at my parents' house unable to play MTGO right now, so I took the opportunity to write up some thoughts, tips, and deck-building questions for the discerning DnT player: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Shoutout @akaleth.bsky.social for the sideboarding notes and decklist! Meteor Sword is kinda great, it's been SO much better than I ever thought it would be. I would feel very confident playing this in EW this weekend
i know the feel my friend, good run though
I'm terrible at video games but I'm good at being a friend
Definitely think Ouphe is worth for how minimal the cost is to include

🏆 Back in the legacy saddle with BWg D&T trophy! List courtesy of @akaleth.bsky.social I just added an Ouphe. Feels good to be back.
With Forge untouched, and The One Ring looking like a pretty big winner across a few different decks, here is where I'm thinking of starting w/ D&T.
Other options include dropping the green splash and just playing Rods/Stony Silences. Leylines might be bad, we'll see how much Oops there is.
goat reference and also every time i run into this i am just shocked like did we never get past carrier pigeons? bro we have gene therapy now, we can send a secure email
You’re spending your Monday in the Secret Lair line hoping WOTC will let you give them money, and likely to be disappointed.
I’m waiting for next Monday’s banlist update hoping WOTC will let me enjoy my favorite formats, and likely to be disappointed.
We’re basically the same. 🤝🏻
It's fun though, once you do it enough you won't want to go back to boring okay push button go forward
you know, running is kinda like a metroidvania
the start is a bit rough but you make it farther the more you play
and if you're tired you can sit on a bench
AI: we can be integrated into everything wow the world will be revolutionized
also AI: im memory leak if call predict() function too much ):
This is a good change, but it’s sure gonna suck the first three times I hit no twice out of muscle memory and decline to move Cloud to the command zone.
(i got lucky)
dreams do come true sometimes :')
Got the trophy on Forge. I more or less gave up and played the good deck that plays cards I like.
Forge is very strong. So far I like where the SB mapping is.
I miss y'all. It's time to come back.
Starting on 9/13, I'll be live on Twitch every Saturday morning playing D&T in the 7am Legacy Challenge! Whether I'm 0-2 dropping, getting 9th on breakers, or winning it all, I'm excited to play premier events regularly.
At the usual place: twitch.tv/akaleth
