I work full time as a creative and still can’t pay my bills week to week unless I’m pulling double duty. I have no savings and everything is sink or swim all the time. Ai lovers couldn’t care less if I became homeless and would blame me. Fuck outta here with that.
The vast majority of artists are working class freelancers, many of which have to hold non-art jobs to pay their bills. The idea that being an artist means you've got an abundance of spare time and money is a complete fabrication. "Starving artist" is a stereotype for a reason.

Instead of worrying about which TCG is better, how about worrying about winning your matches???

I regularly tell my locals to buy proxies that don’t look like real cards and thankfully convinced the once’s who did to mark the passable ones with sharpie We have straight banned “counterfeit” proxies and proxies companies shouldn’t exist that sell real looking fakes
Stores around the country are fed up with CEDH players bringing in fake cards to try and sell after buying them off some bullshit site.

Apparently finding the type of fabric spellground playmats are made out of is *quite* annoying

Pulled the trigger on buying equipment to start my own business in the gaming space. I’m scared but with my wife’s encouragement I’m trying to bet on myself and my creativity

I wonder if every left-handed Magic player holds their hand reverse like I do or if it’s just a me thing?

The commander panel wont make changes for a holistically small % of players, so why expect it at all. And what change could they make that wouldn't put them in the same rock and hard place were in. Take charge of your events, and be the change you want to see 👌
The best part of preparing for EW is I get to totally miss the discourse on Dack. Yall wanna play powerful formats, but get mad when someone else plays powerful cards. Its called a meta 🤷 The panel has shown nothing for months, and I wouldn't expect them to cater to cedh anytime

I assume CBS had a lot of input in the art direction for Star Trek This is the first UB set I’ve been unhappy with the fact I may have to play these cards. The characters just feel bleh (not knocking the artists just the direction)

I did it! This silly little stat I wanted be #1 in the world in I finally hit 😭😭😭 I love this format and I love that I put my mind to something and I was able to do it. Now I can just go back to jamming the same decks

If the CAG were still around this card would def eat a ban as a signpost of “we would like to discourage games of commander around ending when a commander leaves the command zone” and explicitly mention Godo in the writeup
I don't know that Dack Fayden is going to be ruinous to casual or competitive Commander, but it is the type of card I think most interpretations of how you should manage a ban list are unlikely to keep around.

Talked to a few folks about it, maybe I’m crazy but I think there is something here for a Hashaton build. Yuriko lets you crack LED during combat and win the game without being able to lose to Splendor/Mastermind meaning the only answers are stifle/trickbind or killing Hashaton

Sleeved up and won a local with Shang Chi today, after jamming Dack yesterday Legacy elves / Mono Green Storm is fun (Super sad I was scrambling to find an elvish archdruid and ended up with my decklist not showing up at the end 🥲) Good enough for a city of traitors!
