Inspired by the eyetwitch tech in modern I tried it within my pioneer build and it has been very good! Currently 10-0 with this version of the deck (through gold/plat though). Still testing the lesson package, but it definitely improves the deck!

First time reaching mythic since a long time as I did not play much magic lately
Mostly playing with pioneer brews. There might be something here, the deck is pretty fun and is currently 13-1 since badgermole cub who opens many synergies and crazy turns 3

Having a lot of fun playing timeless at the moment! The main deck feels good but the sideboard is mostly a bunch of cards thrown together. I'd love to have abrupt decay in this format.

Top 4 with Jund saga in my first modern RCQ at my LGS.

UR murktide: 🏆☠️🏆
Scam: ☠️🏆🏆
Scales: ☠️🏆
UR control (Lutri): 🏆🏆
ID into top 4
Temur rhinos: ☠️🏆☠️

Long time I didn't play modern but I love this deck!
Kept a bad hand g3 vs rhinos and get punished for it.

@larianstudios I could speak for hours about how this game is awesome and inspiring as a creator, but for now let's just start a #DarkUrge run 😈

[Despe @DespeMTG]

Just completed #BaldursGate3 and it was amazing
Had this feeling of wonder I had as a kid when I first played BG1 and my love for rpgs ignited.
As someone working in the videogame industry since 10y I am amazed.
Thanks @larianstudios and everyone involved for this wonderful game.

Not much time for playing mtg currently but Wilds of Eldraine prerelease was fun!
4-0 with UW frozen, deck was great and often felt unbreakable. Won a wild game with no card in library!
The quantity of game pieces needed made complicated to keep a clean boardstate though

Won the small Store Championship in my LGS with rakdos midrange in pioneer.
Tried MoM Sheoldred after seeing @gruber_benedikt having success with it. Didn't draw it much but it won a mirror match.

Having a lot of fun playing jund delirium lately. Still experimenting, mana base is clunky but functionnal and sb is a mess.
- Liliana tlh and Ishkanah have been impressive
- Flayer is fine but the deck should probably have more harvester instead
- I never draw Tyvar in ~20 games

Won store championship in standard today with rakdos anvil!

Can't beat rakdos so I joined them. Good weekend to play the deck, reached mythic playing explorer and won a pioneer event at my lgs.

Matchups was:
Yorion incarnation: 🏆🏆
Lotus combo: 🏆🏆
Rakdos midrange: 🏆🏆

Having a lot of fun in standard playing rakdos walkers. Many black midrange decks but I like a lot playing midrange mirrors where both players doesn't have infinite resources.

[Despe @DespeMTG]

Excited to be able to play LotV in pioneer, probably one of the card I played the most in competitive magic!
Now could I request dark confident for pioneer and pernicious deed for modern please? 👉👈

[Magic: The Gathering @wizards_magic]

Cards finally arrived at LGS!

[Despe @DespeMTG]

@Sunwebkid @fireshoes Thanks! Claim to Fame was definitely a consideration but I don't run so many creatures and it's hard to find a slot for it.

Won my LGS store championship yesterday with grixis arcanist in pioneer.
Only 8 people and sadly the shop didn't received the cards yet.
Mono R (budget): 🏆🏆
Mono G scales: 🏆🏆

5-0 with grixis arcanist. Rakdos is a bad matchup (which is a real issue at the moment 😅) so Bolas, scarab god and Hazoret are here in that purpose. Not sure if those are good solutions for now...

Mythic with explorer grixis arcanist, the deck is a blast to play!
I was afraid the iteration ban would have killed the deck but it still have game against the field.

Lot of fun playing grixis arcanist in explorer lately. Mana base and sb are far from perfect but this first build seems promising.
