My opinions are still my own.

@TogoresMTG Going on the banned list and coming off the banned list should be seen as having different criteria

Going on this list should be seen as a sign of things being unhealthy

Coming off the list should be reserved for high confidence the game will be more fun having access to it

@MartinJuza @Huschenmtg @kaibudde As I wrap up my AC10 event played on Discord, I can’t help but think back on how I once played Kai at the World Championships inside of the Louvre. Although I love the game of Magic, nothing will ever come close to the Gatherings.

@mtgbentcard If the mulligan was right, which it should be since you chose to mulligan, looking is positive ev because it mathematically reaffirms your decision. Mic drop.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@aarrgh_ I played against many of these players playing those decks! Awesome memories, ty for reminding me.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@CedricAPhillips Going to need you to re-record that for my NameDrop.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@CedricAPhillips Had some, they were great.

@G3RRYT The games where manlands were activated and you didn’t immediately know who was going to win were probably my favorites.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@lsv Thanks, I’ll try that out if I get back in. I have also been having trouble targeting anything on the stack larger than 1 and telling what modes are chosen for multiple mode cards. I practically lose on the spot whenever that comes up and I have an interaction.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@80ho @StoneBladeEnt Yep

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

I’m proud to share that a game I designed has made its way to Target shelves today! Working on this game alongside Stoneblade Entertainment was an incredible journey. I’m grateful for the opportunity and will cherish the memories forever. Congratulations @StoneBladeEnt

Quick 7 wins. Don’t worry about playing all your good cards. Step 1 is to not fall behind and step 2 is to let your 2-1’s take over the game. Good mana is part of that, follow your dual lands. Don’t be down a card you can’t cast or throw yourself off curve due to color issues.

@80ho Both

@abaeckst Sorry I missed it, I didn’t have as much time as I thought before my flight. Was nice seeing you and the rest of the gang!

@ghpar4 Yes I am going, do you have a definite answer though?

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

Can someone tell me if the Denver Regional Championship is open decklist?

"Many people are asking my thoughts on why this is happening so..."

No they aren't. I just woke up, am pissed off that my foot hurts from running, and feel like answering this question, so I'm gonna answer it.

Steve, you rule and apologies in advance if this somehow fucks up your day

@bsweitz123 Here’s where Bob Barker would ask if you have at least four keywords right, and the car horn wouldn’t blow.

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@Smdster @Ajelenbogen I’m trying to figure out the correct framing, but I think it goes something like this:

What’s harder to play, the deck with 5 decisions which all cost you 20% chance of winning, or the deck that has 20 decisions and each costs you 5%?

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

@BasicMountain Give this guy some double strike!
