- friday meowdern challenge split @fireshoes.bsky.social
- 3rd place standard challenge 👁️ @fireshoes.bsky.social
- not expecting much to come of this but I am looking for a testing group leading up to the Minneapolis RC. I don’t have much of a resume other than a few recent challenge results and 15 years of trying to get to the PT. I am strongly vibing with this standard and want to make my best effort.
- won computer nerd FNM with stock pixie @fireshoes.bsky.social
- arena open 1st draft - with a pile of shitty creatures and a lot of luck, coasting on fumes into the 2nd draft!
- finally playing some magic, 1 shot 1 kill on the arena open. any draft knowers got some free advice? @fireshoes.bsky.social for reach so someone will teach me :]

- top 8 modern challenge no clout tag cause i don’t really feel good about this one, mostly just took actions at random. beat some decks. whatever
- not so funny now is it
- playing my little computer card game tucked in bed while triple record snow is outside my house and everything in the world is really really bad

- 2nd challenge top 4 in as many entries! this time in standard with selesnya tokens courtesy of @meowodic.bsky.social steamrolled all the creature decks, got smacked by omniscience and then lost the grind-fest in the semis. ggs! @fireshoes.bsky.social

- Wizards does a lot of disappointing things, but this is one of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen. Will be researching how our community can help. In the meantime, if you have any connections at WotC, please make them hear about this.
- Magic guide writers badly need editors. Running your guide past even an unskilled human editor, just a 2nd set of eyes, would prevent a lot of these problems If you're writing a Magic guide for sale, I will edit it for very cheap. Your friends might do it for free. Just put in the effort please
