I’m sad to hear of Sheldon’s passing. EDH/Commander brought Magic to life for myself and countless others, opening the doors to a world of endless, joyful brewing and bickering. May he rest in peace and rest in power - the world is brighter because of him.

Would you have done better in school if getting good grades meant you got Magic cards?
Today I prepped these boxes full of goodies that kids will soon be earning from our “Game for Grades” prize wall.

@skyfallnirvana Sounds like One Piece TCG is the game for you!

Lorcana rules are out! Racing to build up lore points instead of knocking out life feels more like Keyforge than Magic. Also curious about how cost balancing will work

First let me give ALL credit to @Geeks1st for these images. But here are all the images from the GTM magazine for #lorcana

@skyfallnirvana Too many options? Some would say this type of resource system is a good alternative that prevents mana flood/screw

@ChrisKMooney Yggdra Union - it's an incredibly innovative card-based strategy RPG with tight map design and great music. Story starts out simple but really draws you in

Really glad to see Oathbreaker getting the love and attention it deserves. With MOM around the corner, I'd like to point out that Planechase Oathbreaker > Planechase EDH in terms of flavor and game length, if your group is looking for some casual kitchen table fun! #MTGOath

@JakeBossMTG A few tips here: https://t.co/AnNjGQKJHD

Really glad to see this happen as a long-time fan of both Oathbreaker and Magikids!

Ben did an amazing job as the DMR design lead. An absolute joy to work with every step of the way!

[Ben Lundquist @bennybeatdowns]

As my last hoorah at WotC, I had the pleasure to lead Dominaria Remastered. Lots of feelings, I hope you get to play and enjoy!

[Sam @SamJiangTCG]

@GavinVerhey It also sets expectations for how old you’ll be by the time a game is finished

Just like @shroud, many of you were excited about my 3D system based on YuGiOh!

Unfortunately, I was unable to get the approval from the rightful stakeholders, therefore, I am both unable to continue the development of this project, and unable to keep using it.

...the redirected time & effort put into building up your local scene ends up creating more Magic players, and it makes you new friends to trade and game with... well, that would be the biggest win for everybody. (3/3)

[Sam @SamJiangTCG]

Seeing some turmoil on #MTG Twitter about the current state of the platform, and I want to say... the beating heart of any TCG has always been, and will always be, your local scene. Your LGS, your friend group, your siblings and colleagues and #SpellTable gang. (1/3)

[Sam @SamJiangTCG]

Twitter is vocal, but it has always been a minority. The majority of Magic players are, effectively, the IRL folks you play Commander and Prereleases and FNM with. So if Twitter loses its appeal, engaging more with those smaller groups is never a bad idea. And if... (2/3)
