Don’t Need To Win #MTG

I don't need to win to have fun.

Secret Lairs #MTG

This is so frustrating!!
I waited for hours, and once again I didn't get the Secret Lair!

Did you have any luck?
I've given up. I need to protect my mental health from WotC's business practices.

Don't you get FOMO?
I now embrace JOMO.
What's JOMO?

Joy of missing out.

Packs #MTG

Surprise!
What’s this?

I bought each of us a pack of Magic cards.
That's so thoughtful.

Wait, don't open it yet!
Why not?

I don't want to see if I gave you the better pack.

Commander Surprises #MTG

Wait, I put this card in my deck?

I play this card too?
I had no idea.

I totally forgot about adding this card.

Games of Commander are full of so many surprises!

Latest Hot Card #MTG

The great thing about Commander being casual is that people don't have to chase the latest hot card.

People can just play with what they have and still have fun.

Didn't you just order a Gleaming
Splendor for $50?
I was talking about other people, not me!

Legacy #MTG

Wanna play some Legacy?
I don't know.

What's the matter?
My boyfriend dumped me!
He says I play too much Magic.

Guys come and go.
Legacy is eternal.

The Power of Magic #MTG

We are surrounded by technology that makes it easier than ever for us to communicate with each other.

And yet, somehow, more and more people are lonely and struggle to make friends.

We crave real
human interaction, but it can be
daunting to know where to start.

That's why
I feel so lucky to have Magic to help me connect with people.

One time I opened a Mox Diamond from a pack of Stronghold at a Software Etc, and it was before the set was was supposed to be released. Can anyone beat that?

GIRUDO@girudo.bsky.social · 2w ago

What’s the best card you opened? OK we don’t need to hear about it ALL the time…thanks @cardboard-crack.bsky.social #mtg #magicthegathering

What's your plans for the weekend?

I'm going to do Some tapping, attacking, sacrificing, draining, looting, and maybe even some proliferating!

Check Out This Card! #MTG

Check out this card!

I don't get it. It's not graded, or serialized, or a surge foil, or from a Secret Lair, or on the reserved list, or a box topper, or exclusive to collector boosters.

What's so special about this card?!

I just like it.

Went to an IPA themed birthday party yesterday. Can’t overstate how much fun this format is. You never feel like you’re totally out of the game. Went 3-1-1 with this list

Lunch Money #MTG

Im not giving you lunch money if you're going to spend it on Magic cards!

You're so accusing!
Why would you think Im doing that?

Earlier...
You really need $60
for lunch today?

Cat Token #MTG

I cast Prideful Parent, making a cat token.

Do you have a token I can borrow?
I don't carry tokens with me.
Well, I need something.

At least there's no danger of the token moving.
You're ridiculous.

Universes Beyond #MTG

I feel so conflicted when I play Magic these days.

I can't stand Universes Beyond. I really dislike how it's changing the game I love.

But I also don't want to be rude or dismissive because it clearly brings joy to a lot of people.

You really don't like my Doritos® card?
No!
Is it because it's nacho cheese flavor?

Teaching Magic #MTG

Thanks for teaching me how to play Magic.
Let's play with our hands up so I can explain what to do.
Next, see that you have no lands and yell,
"Mana screwed?!
This game is so unfair!"
Mana screwed?!
This game is so
unfair!
First, draw seven cards.
Okay, done.
Wow, you're a natural.
I never knew
Magic was
So much fun!

Pregame Discussion #MTG

The goal of my deck is to flood the board with creature tokens.

My deck focuses on getting value from landfall triggers.

My deck forces you to watch me take an hour long turn where I tap and untap my permanents over and over, slowly drawing my entire deck, while I explain why I techically haven't gone infinite.

How can people expect me to be honest if they then refuse to play me?!

The Godfather #MTG

Why is he
attacking me?
How could you make a deal with her?
I made him an offer he can't refuse.
Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
You're really countering my spell?
It's not personal.
It's strictly business.
Let me guess.
You recently rewatched the Godfather movies.
Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!

Mix-up #MTG

That TV show was so disappointing!
What happened?

I thought it was about a mother who loves card games and builds unique decks.

Instead it was a cooking show about making beer with a special spice.
How did you mix those up?
