It's a cool gimmick in a world where legends are scarce, but incredibly boring when we're getting like 150 legends a set.14 May 2025 13:00 +0000at://did:plc:j2fdsn6zrak4y4dmop5oh22e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lp52ly5z7227https://bsky.app/profile/saffronolive.bsky.social/post/3loy4m4esuc2sAlmost accidentally put a day/night card in my Commander Clash deck for this week.

It's not that you can't build decks to beat those things, it's more that building decks to beat those things requires removing a lot of flavorful and fun cards, and Commander is a format I play for fun.23 Apr 2025 19:33 +0000at://did:plc:j2fdsn6zrak4y4dmop5oh22e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lniwr64zrc2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/saffronolive.bsky.social/post/3lnitjubars2qI feel like there might be a gap in the bracket system between brackets 3 and 4. Where does "play whatever you want, but don't stax me or blow up all of the lands" fit? Is it bracket 3 with a discussion about why you are playing more game changers? Is it bracket 4, but "be nice"? I'm not sure.23 Apr 2025 18:36 +0000at://did:plc:j2fdsn6zrak4y4dmop5oh22e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lnitjubars2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/saffronolive.bsky.social/post/3lmfyu73n722hMardu seems legit.09 Apr 2025 22:08 +0000at://did:plc:j2fdsn6zrak4y4dmop5oh22e/app.bsky.feed.post/3lmfyu73n722hhttps://bsky.app/profile/saffronolive.bsky.social/post/3lmacf3wu2c2yBoth Richard and Crim are traveling today so I'm pulling in a special guest for the podcast. @covertgoblue.bsky.social will be joining me to talk Tarkir: Dragonstorm, bannings and more!
