Happy 16th birthday to you, @danafischermtg.bsky.social (despite my protests)! So happy we get to play games and have adventures around the world together!
Great pre-16th-bday dinner Fri at #MCAmsterdam ! @gavinverhey.bsky.social @walaoumpa.bsky.social @maro254.bsky.social @melissadetora.bsky.social the @deckedout.bsky.social crew @sierkovitz.bsky.social @shivambhatt.bsky.social @pg8.bsky.social @tommartell.bsky.social @itsannamargaret.com , & more!
I also had the chance to go see A’DAM LOOKOUT today while in Amsterdam the day before #MCAmsterdam - the swing high above the city was a cool experience, and my dad @adamfischer71.bsky.social and I had fun with the name matching his.
It’s the day before #MCAmsterdam and we’re taking some time to check out some of the sights and attractions of the city such as The Upside Down Amsterdam which is basically right across the street from the event hall!
Thank you to the participants of #MTGMagicCamp 2026, incl. coaches @nathansteuer.bsky.social , @nicoletipple.bsky.social , @pg8.bsky.social , @walaoumpa.bsky.social , & @ccalcano.bsky.social , w/ 3 in Top 20 ELO! If you are interested in participating next year, message @adamfischer71.bsky.social !
Dana (@DanaFischerMTG) and Adam Fischer are in Japan on a family holiday, and have come to Spotlight Series: Secrets here in Chiba! They're both on Mono-Green Landfall: "With 4C Control getting more popular, Mono-Green feels better than Selesnya," Dana said.
That is very kind of you, Onnik - always a pleasure seeing you!

Bye-bye first-year dorm at Chapman! Sadie is officially done with her first year and moved out!
I got cataract surgery in my left eye this morning and am doing fine but doctor said to limit screens that were close up for the first day or two so time for @mtgarena.com on the big screen TV with the wireless mouse and keyboard (even with the funky glasses)!
211 Players in Santiago for the RC! Here's the quick clean up of archetypes for Metagame Breakdown & Win Rates across the Swiss Rounds of Play! (Some players named things "Grixis Demons" but is Izzet Lessons, etc) #MagicTheGathering @fireshoes.bsky.social @playmagic.com @saffronolive.bsky.social
My dad @adamfischer71.bsky.social and I BOTH made the finals of a Standard @starcitygames.bsky.social @scgcon.bsky.social RCQ at Alesmith sponsored by Tabletop Tavern and I won! First Q of the season down! See picture of decklist (which we were both playing) below! @fireshoes.bsky.social
It was great hanging out with @thiefofcrowns.bsky.social throughout the weekend at @starcitygames.bsky.social @scgcon.bsky.social #SCGBALTIMORE #SpotlightSpiderMan including the ending ride to the airport (thanks)!
I can’t believe that Sadie becomes an adult today! I am so proud of the amazing young woman she has become. It was so great meeting her & some new friends of hers at Chapman for breakfast this morning. Also how fitting that on the way up I saw a “Sadie Rose” truck…
I did some analysis of the recent @magic.wizards.com Standard meta & things have really shifted - not a huge sample, but looks like Mono-R Aggro is unseating Izzet Cauldron, Dimir Midrange is rising, & Mono-G Aggro has come up @optimustom.bsky.social @azoriusi.bsky.social @fireshoes.bsky.social
My dad @adamfischer71.bsky.social won the entire #GenCon2025 @magic.wizards.com Championship! And he gives some credit for his win to the recent Magic Camp! I just posted the latest video where we discuss details of the camp’s origins, w/ more videos to come! ➡️ youtu.be/9iIGQ5XAIag
About 1 year ago today, I won an RCQ at Gen Con on the very first day of the convention and the whole @scgcon.bsky.social @starcitygames.bsky.social RCQ season and today my dad @adamfischer71.bsky.social did the exact same thing in #MTGEternities Limited at #GenCon2025 . How cool!
Camp is underway! So excited to be holding this after all the months of planning and how much @danafischermtg.bsky.social has been looking forward to it.
Dana Fischer, The Disciple of Nissa@danafischermtg.bsky.social · last yr.I'm excited to announce a project I have been working on - MAGIC CAMP! We have 7 young @magic.wizards.com players & 4 pros - @nathansteuer.bsky.social , @nicoletipple.bsky.social , @samuelhblack.bsky.social , & @pg8.bsky.social See this first of many videos for info Link: youtu.be/vxiwIaW6BT8?...
And here are the image recaps! Added the usual ones from earlier as well! (fixed) GL everyone on Day 2! @playmagic.com @scgcon.bsky.social @fireshoes.bsky.social #MagicTheGathering #MTG
Great real-time info! There looks to be a big difference between the mono-red representation here vs the metagame stats reported earlier elsewhere - this seems to make more sense for prevalence of mono-red.
OptimusTom@optimustom.bsky.social · last yr.THROUGH ROUND 5 OF #SCGMINN #Standard #MTG #MagicTheGathering @scgcon.bsky.social 5+ COPY DECKS - TOP 10 WIN% DECKS - H2H TOP 10 PRESENCE Dimir, Omni looking to be coming out ahead as meta reads. Prowess/Oculus above 50% still Abzan Pixie, Selesnya Tokens frontrunner for sleeper picks
More data from the events this past weekend for the new Standard with #MTGTarkir . Now incl. Day 2 of #RCBologna along with results of the 600-player Open (with archetypes refined to be consistent) & stats combined for all! @fireshoes.bsky.social @optimustom.bsky.social @azoriusi.bsky.social
Also got a look at the Head to head between the Top 10 Presence decks at #RCBologna ! Wanna beat Prowess? So far, try some Eyeballs & Orzhov spells! Need to poke some eyeballs? Domain & Dimir are doing it! #MagicTheGathering #MTG
For Day 1 of @fanfinity.bsky.social @ultimateguard.bsky.social #RCBologna Standard, I calculated winrates of all decks w/ 10+ players. Golgari is main outlier (low), w/ Izzet, Oculus, Jeskai Control, & Orzhov strong. @fireshoes.bsky.social @optimustom.bsky.social @azoriusi.bsky.social
I got 95th place out of 1219 players (top 8%) in the big Limited format event at @starcitygames.bsky.social @scgcon.bsky.social #SCGDenver #SpotlightDragons. It was my first called and stamped booster draft in over 20 years, with my last one at Pro Tour Nice in 2002! It was cool to do it again.
I had been wanting to meet fellow gaming data analyst @nivethenerd.bsky.social for a while ever since we traded notes on #DisneyLorcana metagame and performance info, and I finally got to do so at @starcitygames.bsky.social @scgcon.bsky.social #SCGDenver ! With @danafischermtg.bsky.social .
The panel I was on at #WonderCon2025 about “A Career in Card Games” was a lot of fun! Thanks to Billy for hosting and Damyan from Tier 1 , @kenmeyerjrartist.bsky.social , and my dad @adamfischer71.bsky.social for also being a part of it!
I’m also excited to be on this panel tomorrow at #WonderCon - thanks for the invite, Billy !
