An outlet for my musings on MTG. I also post pictures from my collection.

@mitchellsocks Isn’t it too much of a do nothing initially? Lessons literally plays 4 creatures. Feels redundant compared to monument.

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@Basti24b @Huschenmtg and it's still probably not even good enough to see play

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@Zykles__ @fireshoes Honestly it's really UW control with a splash for revelation

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@SaffronOlive You don’t have to think about it another second if you accept this fact: comics are really, really dumb.

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@FrowningTable For the people saying we need better answers - can you give an example? We have torch the tower, DoJ, get lost, into the flood maw, shoot the sheriff. I mean why do you want exactly? Better question, what are you even trying to kill?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@UsagiKaede1 This one always hit me hard for some reason

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@Mengu09 @hareruyaEnglish Foils just look dark and ugly now :(

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@MaffiMTG Bro the stream had like 7k viewers, its just not that popular unfortunately

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@Ashlizzlle_ Feels like the izzet shells are basically control decks in disguise that pack tons of spot removal. Don’t think the cub had a chance

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@Mengu09 @death_snow Is there something wizards is systematically doing, intentionally or not, to make this combo so consistently powerful? Like is it just that when you take a mana off every creature and draw spell things get nuts?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

Cracking up at how out of place this construction worker is #MTGWorlds

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@DrewIafrate @SaffronOlive You mean stormchaser’s talent?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@gianlucagmtg I’m a believer

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@JPA93mtg How would you define FIRE design?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

You can debate the power level of Standard's banned cards all day long, but what they have in common is that they are all incredibly un-fun to play against. WotC is getting very good at designing these kinds of cards apparently.

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

10 Cards banned in standard. 11 if you count Leyline. Is this an all-time record?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

The B&R explanations, especially around proft's were pretty concerning. It seems clear that WotC simply doesn't have the man power (person power?) to keep up with such a gigantic format.

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@ManaManMTG Because those decks aren’t that good rn?

[Adam @AdamPlaysMagic]

@fritterbaker @Mengu09 Dimir is a midrange deck? So is vivi arguably. And control regularly does okay - far from unplayable. Red is able to consistently beat control lists with main deck authority and helix.
