Pioneer? In 2027? More likely than you'd think! WeeklyMTG teased some RCQ info to look forward to. Be sure to keep an eye out for official announcements in the future 📜
I think the general consensus I'm seeing about the Standard bans isn't, "Why did you ban this!?" and instead it's, "Why didn't you ALSO ban Tablet of Discovery!?" These were good bans, and I say that as a true Cub enjoyer.
This was me looking at Badgermole Cub on this B&R update.

B&R prediction time! Standard needs a shake-up, badly. Let's do another, "early rotation." I woke up feeling optimistic, so: Tablet of Discovery Badgermole Cub Stormchaser's Talent Accumulate Wisdom Ouroboroid Icetill Explorer Sunderflock Doomsday Excruciator Practiced Offense Slickshot Show-off

This year’s 127 yard sale starts off with a WHAM!
Math folks (sorry, I have an English degree), how many elves do you need to run to reliably behold Elven Passage on turn 1 or 2?
Just got the $250k question on Millionaire because Ophiomancer exists. This is roughly the 1,000th time Magic has helped me get a trivia question right. Play Magic, it makes you smarter
Ever wondered about the Pioneer format? www.coolstuffinc.com/a/what-is-pi...
Look, if you're too high and mighty to see the fun in casting this on your opponent's creature just to say the card name, then I don't know what to tell you. Magic has always been a bit loony and I love it.

Trying to brew with The Hobbit and both Elves and Dwarves are running into the same problem. Only 1 quality 1-drop.
They Live is a story about a world overtaken by greed and propaganda, where countless people have fallen victim to the idea that one must consume and never question their own consumption and misfortune. It's John Carpenter's most openly political effort. And it's an absolute blast.
I've already come up 3-4 decks for this and it's been spoiled for less than an hour. This makes my brewer senses all tingly
Seriously, Settle the Wreckage is one of my top 5 most hated non-Counterspells ever printed.
Every time you play this creature, you are OBLIGATED to lock eyes with your opponent and ask, "What are you GLOIN to do about it?"
LevDev Quandrix Gradulate@levdev.bsky.social · 2w agoRevealed by Variety. It's very vulnerable...but . .I am looking at this card respectfully.
Return of the HoF and 4 Magiccons shows some more investment back into competitive Magic. Appreciated @maro254.bsky.social @magic.wizards.com
Kamigawa vs Ikoria... Mutants versus Ninjas. and, Kamigawa has turtles...
