@arlowhite I'd love to have Italy qualify again, but really one thing has nothing to do with the other.

Europe has a LOT of spots, as evidenced by the several weak european sides who qualified. Italy just has to do better than Bosnia, Austria or Czechia, which is a more than fair ask.

@TheMatchdayMan Spain and Brazil actually have much better nicknames than the ones listed (La Furia and Canarinho, respectively).

@pompomend OG Kamigawa flavor text goes hard

@stats_feed Probably "conchetumadre" in Argentina. Unless "boludo" is considered a curse word.

@staggeredfawn @chicosversion Red herrings are usually done for the green and yellow categories, while this one would definitely be purple. Still a red herring, but this one was done specifically to get experienced players who immediately see these patterns, which I though was funny.

@chicosversion Same thing happened to me, and they 100% did it to prank the likes of us.

@rcondon_ If I'm not mistaken, that's how it used to work pre-6th edition.

@DANFROES @gugachacra Também nunca ganhou sem jogador do Palmeiras, a propósito. São os únicos dois times que estiveram nos cinco títulos.

@Mtg_SoulStrong @worldlycounsel @HeavyPlayLLC @BooseMtg Boa sorte, man. Estarei torcendo. 💪🏼

@chests @HiddenYorkshire Castelobruxo is quite ridiculous, too. It's taking an English-language word amalgamation custom and google translating it into Portuguese, resulting in a construction that wouldn't happen in the language. And that's before we add the fact that it's literally "Wizardcastle".

@josephjpcar @ProdigalTechie @RhodeToLove I got bands correct while fully believing one of them to be simply The Doors 👌🏼

@yuyan_mtg First time for a World Champion card, but it happened a few times for invitational cards, so it's no susprise. I for one think they should keep the winner's likeness for each new art.

@TozzaFla Minha preferida: Rodrigo Pimpão machuca a perna, mas passam gelol e ele volta.

Repórter de campo: "Agora tá melhor, mas o médico falou que mais tarde vai doer bastante"

5 min depois, Pimpão recebe a bola.

Milton: "Taí Pimpão, que mais tarde vai ver o que é bom pra tosse"

@Lillythelich @manasightgg @SaffronOlive Amd all you get for it is a 1/1 for five mana.

Forget about rare, Wood Elemental is the worst card ever printed, period.

@theKampo @fireshoes Sdds bazar de bagdá 🥲

@PlayMTG Promo choices continue to baffle me.

@lunebowl @skoopaaa His Targaryen blood was a big part of the justification to sell him to his allies as a viable candidate for the throne, so I don't think he hated them that much. 😬
