Have seen some recent articles bemoaning the loss of #mtga Alchemy format, citing that the last time WoTC revealed format-specific numbers, Alchemy was more popular than Timeless and Explorer/Pioneer. These #'s are skewed due to Arena tutorial "Color Challenge" queuing Alchemy.

[averagezen.algo @averagezen]

After additional testing, it seems it's actually #1 and #3. Happy Hunting!

Need #MTG Arena Alchemy Achievements (New Brew & Accomplished Alchemist)?
1. Can be "Play" or "Ranked" match.
2. Each player must play 3 spells to count achievement progress.
3. Possibly 3 turn minimum as well (for each player). #mtga #mtgarena #magicthegathering #arena

Think I killed a Dryad. Need to check Dungeon Master's Guide to see how much XP I got.

@Fenjita86 The power creep is real. The formula is proven. They will have all our money and the game will be terrible XD. Cheers!

Mono-Green Tempo Voltron is not what you expect to see sitting across the #mtga competitive brawl table...but neither is an unstoppable monkey with a sword. I give you....Hit-Monkey.

Hit-Monkey is an INSANE Commander! Mono-Green Voltron with almost no chance of getting blown out when equipping? Sign me up!

@Fenjita86 I blame the scalpers and the corporations that are ruining our hobbies in search of ever-increasing profits.

We put The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl to the test on #Arena, challenged ourselves to hit the token limit, and said "squirrel"....a LOT! Enjoy!

Forced to take another break from streaming on https://t.co/KvLY7fLIvh again this week (last week was a family reunion in New Orleans!). Very difficult to stream during a heatwave with my AC out. Pray for me fam, the repair service MAYBE fixes it tomorrow? Oi!

[averagezen.algo @averagezen]

@frugalbc @seawillpdx I don't think we ever actually got out of the bear. Yours (AND $ALGO's!) time will come. Patience.

@MTG_Arena Competitive Brawl is live can we talk about banning Ugin in Play Brawl?

0 quests w/exile/colorless, ton of fast mana, exile everything so feels terrible to play against, old Ugin is already banned and arguably worse.

@baggyGFY Haven't thought about Spin Spin Sugar in years! Sneaker Pimps were ahead of their time.

We may have had a little too much fun proving our thesis that #mtgarena has a counterspell problem....

@EvanLuthra Not uncommon. The US justice system and law enforcement devote a SIGNIFICANT amount of time to creating crimes just to entrap people in highly publicized "sting" operations for the positive media coverage. I think Jon Oliver or Daily Show did a feature on it recently.

Probably my best work yet! In this epic first episode of my new series, "AI Says It's Good", I see if I can train a chatbot to Draft on #mtga!

Had a blast with the #MTG SOS Witherbloom, the Balancer over the last week. This guy is SOOOOO good when built around. Torment of Hailfire X=12? No problem Mr. Dragon!

Saw that someone used morse code to trick Grok into sending an X user ~$200k in crypto. Couldn't help thinking they couldn't have done it on $ALGO due to needing to opt-in to receive the trading NFT used for this hack. 🤔

[averagezen.algo @averagezen]

Had a blast (when we didn't get flooded) playing this new take on Bloodthirsty Combo! Momo never failed to impress, but Jackdaw Savior was the real MVP of this match!

Azorius Stax stacked up the wins vs. creature decks. Admittedly, control is a bad matchup, but not impossible if enough fliers can stick and with Enduring Curiosity still in play!
