Smell Fear {1}{G} Sorcery Proliferate. (Choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there.) Target creature you control fights up to one target creature you don’t control. “It’s fun when they run a little.” —Wasitora, Nekoru queen Illustrated by Cristi Balanescu
No Smell Fear?
Pterafractal! is my new curse word
Close but the best is actually my Aunt Nancy’s homemade Chex Mix with cashews
This is the kind of bravery for which Bluesky is famous!
Kids home from break this week. Gonna complicate my plans to stream lots of the new Strixhaven set.
P1P1 Rye Chip. No question. Last pick: one of those pretzels, probably the circle. We don’t need double-pretzel.
Literally the best part of Chex Mix for me. Save those discs of brown gold for someone who appreciates the flavor.
Well, time to get the popcorn.
Discount token day!
I invite you magic players to consider that perhaps a Star Wars Unlimited holo stamp foil sheet or two got mixed in with the magic ones because perhaps the cards are printed in the same facility?
👀
I don't think this is the confirmation of Star Wars product we think it is.
Is there a way to mute posts with more than one hashtag?
Yes
I played when back Dark Heart of Wood was banned and the choice seemed completely right. Being able to trade lands for life was a big advantage.
Now that I’m older and wiser I think Elves of Deep Shadow is the real powerful card.
You can get complementary cheap deck boxes with most large card orders. eBay bulk lots of commons are great if you like bad cards like I do.
Carta Mundi just begging for another company to take their contracts
Sunbathing Rootwalla {1}{G} Creature — Lizard Domain — {3}{G}: Until end of turn, this creature gets +1/+1 for each basic land type among lands you control. Activate only once each turn. A rootwalla’s prey includes anything or anyone that wanders into view. 2/2 Illustrated by Campbell White
That’s no excuse! Get that vitamin D!
The world needs more rabbits that can make hats vanish!

Fun times at the #SecretsOfStrixhaven pre-release. I went 2-2 with Witherbloom. Got beat by a sick Lorehold deck that out-grinded like crazy. Went 2-1 vs Quandrix. Overall it looked like any school can win. Prepare is indeed quite good!
(I still miss Learn/Lesson.)
“A lot of Magic games in 2026 are about both players deploying permanents and interacting with whatever the other person puts into play. I believe these games tend to be mostly about resources: the player who uses their resources more efficiently...”
