Duel Commander challenges are now up on MTGO 7am PST every Saturday. I’m gonna play in as many as I can, and hopefully make some extra content with them. So you (I’m talking to you, the reader 🫵) better sign up for these events too so they keep firing! See you all on the front lines tomorrow

Important question for my Cloud bucket list: Does this qualify as a kill with poison counters? Opponent concedes at 7 poison, facing down 3 toxic mites (but also regular damage lethal)

🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 Starting to feel ridiculous at this point, but we're at 5 consecutive Duel Commander trophy streams (4 with Cloud, 1 with Quint). Queen of Dale and Kili are, expectedly, very nice upgrades to the deck.

🏆 The 20-0 back-to-back-to-back-to-back 4 straight trophy streams! Cloud is feeling better than ever, with a few changes for the postban world. Excited for Queen of Dale and Kili to upgrade the deck next week!

3 more streams until the Duel for Duels in Mechanicsburg PA, so we're buckling down with more Cloud testing in Duel Commander www.twitch.tv/xjcloud

Cloak and Dagger is the truth frfr, third trophy in four (?) streams! A lot of the most concerning matchups in the format feel like cards in hand matter more than stuff on board and C&D just keeps hittin'

MagicCon Tokyo right after an unannounced Universes Beyond… never has the stage been more set for Monster Hunter UB

Magic: The Gathering@magic.wizards.com · last mo.

Our second show of 2027 takes us somewhere brand new for MagicCon. We're headed to Japan as MagicCon Tokyo kicks off May 14th-16th! You may also see an Unannounced Universes Beyond set on the timeline. More details are coming at a later date, but that set will release April 9th.

Doing important research today

🏆 Back-to-back stream trophies, this time with Quintorius! The Mind Stone was a big upgrade, easily the best mana rock in the deck. Fogwell's Gym was also a card I literally didn't even know existed until someone in discord pointed it out but I think it slots into Quint perfectly.

Continuing the Marvel exploration in Duel Commander, we're playing Quintorius with some marvel upgrades! www.twitch.tv/xjcloud

FIights are low right now if you have RCs or Spotlights you're planning on attending. Mostly seems to be from a sale at s o u t h w e s t d o t c o m, which ends tomorrow. #mtg

🏆 5-0 with Cloud on tonight's stream, featuring Hatut Zeraze Strike Force, a card that I think is flying under the radar as one of the strongest new Marvel cards for Duel Commander.
