Miku does not sing at this table. she taps for mana, triggers off every creature you drop, and populates your 8/8 wurm. the girl never even touched a keyboard. #EDH #HatsuneMiku #Selesnya

@DarkHorseComics @PopverseSays Can’t wait for October. Is there a store locator for where this will be stocked?

@edmundmcmillen If you’ve never played Dandan format you’ve never played Magic.

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

Cats of Chaos closes the Cats Are The Best superdrop: ~$46 of value for $30.

Aggravated Assault + Aura Shards headline.

Champions from Beyond doubled this week on Marvel "hero" hype, and it's a Final Fantasy card.

The Marvel tide is lifting hero payoffs everywhere.

2 cards. Turn 3. Game over.

Hawkeye's Bow + Seeker of Skybreak goes infinite in Pauper. Verhey calls it "a problem," then declines to pre-ban it.

The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster: 3-mana 3/3 flyer, flickers a permanent on attack, draws on every Equipment ETB.

Best blue-white equipment commander now?

https://t.co/ON9fMksEJr

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

Winter Soldier, Icy Assassin: 2/2 vigilance + menace, +2/+0 per Equipment, reanimates himself at instant speed.

Cleanest 2-mana Voltron commander in a while.

https://t.co/ON9fMksEJr

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

Aphelia, Viper Whisperer: $8 to $25 in a week, +180%, on a new Marvel villain pairing.

Foundations Jumpstart mythic, so supply is thin.

@TheTrinketMage And how many decks do you play is a great follow up 🤣

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

the table the second Miku hits the battlefield: "okay she's the archenemy, everyone focus her." the table five minutes later: "wait how is she at 140 life." #Commander #Selesnya #HatsuneMiku

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

Marvel Super Heroes gave us Bast, Panther Goddess: MTG's first Cat God.

Early, indestructible, and built to go wide. Cat typal finally has its payoff.

https://t.co/ON9fMksEJr

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

Galactus is finally here and skips Annihilator.

No most-feared keyword on the World-Devourer. Relief or letdown?

https://t.co/ON9fMksEJr

[Spark MTG @SparkMtg]

347 brand-new commanders in one set.

Best problem in Magic, or proof the treadmill is too fast?

@snailtechnician The Garfield drop is so exciting. This might be one of the most charming drops they’ve done in a while, having Jim Davis make playable cards is an actual flex.
