@RedRaxus I expect a full photo dump by week's end for your local (TL) northern based archaeologist

@NarukamiKnight Two of my oldest decks have had infinites in since their inception: Sharuum combo & Sidisi zombies. Only the later I still enjoy piloting often. Can't bring myself to break down Sharuum since it's my first deck, but aiming for the same line gets dull.

Great read as always!

@vermont_morgan Would be ready to welcome you all here, and especially Rakas.

@TheElderMemes I miss Leamon, hope he's doing great on whatever project he's working on.

@ghirapurigears Mirrored knights in Black & White is so deeply ingrained in magic's DNA I'm surprised this hasn't been designed already. Now I want my 2/2 for BB that gets me a Swamp.

@ghirapurigears This was like one of the first card I saw (online) of magic, so it's seared in my mind next to Coastal Hornclaw (a card I owned as a kid for some reason).

I should get a foil of this because I'm a sucker for Alara block even though I'm an Esperite through & through

@Liv_Agar AGAR! UNE SEULE DATE ET MA VIE EST TIENNE

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@NarukamiKnight This trope-heavy trend since OTJ (and MKM to an extent) has really soured my excitement for newer sets that even Bloomburrow couldn't salvage. Foundations however might.

Also Daretti looks like an Italian boss I had a few years back and it's too uncanny for me.

@godschosenotaku I would eviscerate myself on the spot

@NarukamiKnight Played Siege Rhino with my Anafenza the Foremost last week, the looks i got lmao. My oldest deck that has stayed so consistent over the years.
Chasing upgrades is neat for stronger deck or innovative deck (Always need new tech for flash Chromium), but capsules are super fun too!

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@ghirapurigears Remastered art has slightly less loaded text, but if you're looking into getting a foil one the original is bound to be stunning.

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@NarukamiKnight Granted, some of the cards from J25 convey great action in the artstyle. Love Slinza, Gornog & Sutina (I'm a sucker for Zendikari elves)

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@NarukamiKnight I generally chose not to engage with either when possible. I don't like the overuse of anime art for the J25 set, but there's like two cards I want for a very casual deck of mine (Anje Blood Tokens). But as long as it's not over the top art like anime Smothering Tithe, I'm good.

@Em_TeeGee Happy to see the Clickwheel's glorious return. Other than that my friends were howling at Maze's End (playgroup inside joke)

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@maizie_star Glossy but my new phone (pixel 8) sometimes gives me the matte as an auto fill option. My colorblind ass has a hard time distinguishing the nuance.

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@NarukamiKnight The way I felt excited seeing a Rogue's Passage reprint (so affordable foil) and seeing niche tech cards has been amazing.

[Soviet Archaeomancer ☭ @SovietBear1917]

@vermont_morgan Finally, representation.
