I'm gonna make some assumptions of what the people who've spent any amount of time with me in a game will post, and keep those assumptions to myself until proven wrong or right.

Most of my preferred sets don't have an uncommon legend in them, but the set I drafted the most out of any has the best boi:

Magic card: Mowu, Loyal Companion

There is a gigantic three-tailed dog as the focus of this frame. Is a good boi.

I found a mantis at work. I've never heard of a black mantis before. TIL black mantises exist? Manti? English plurals are always a gamble until I look them up on webster's.

A black mantis perched on the lip of a trailer. Its arms are striped grey and black, and it appears to be looking directly at the camera.

*peanut gallery booing in the background* Tsk tsk.

I am a little upset that I didn't see this until today, given my love of this piece of Abzan history. Never too late to love Seige Rhino tho. 4/5 best bois.

...I just leave my overnight job for the day to see this. Rude AF. 'Scuse me while I go sob all the way home.

I think my skill with Magic depends on the aspect of magic involved. My overall score, 6.5/10. My deck building is probably a firm 6. My in-play skill, I put at 7+, because I definitely make mistakes when playing out of my wedge, but my in-wedge play is extremely solid.

@coburnsdivine.bsky.socialSep 23, 2026, 12:19 AM

With my limited experience in playing with you, I'm inclined to support your self-assessment, though I might actually bump you up to 8/10 because of your 'build a deck on the fly' skills are enviable.

Nope. Nope. Nope. No...*walks out before she can accidentally find out more*

Good lord, you even have a spreadsheet. Respect.

@coburnsdivine.bsky.socialSep 14, 2026, 9:25 PM

This is absolutely an abomination. I want it off my plate and going into my belly immediately.

@coburnsdivine.bsky.socialSep 14, 2026, 9:20 PM

@phelddagrif.quest I have to ask, do you have a stash of like, 200+ pheldagrifs, or are you buying one up every day that your current daily challenge lasts?

@coburnsdivine.bsky.socialSep 14, 2026, 4:54 PM

After the Bears game, I'm wondering if I emerged from the Mothica concert I went to last night in some kind of alternate universe. It's nice here, but there's still all the other things.

My first question would be wholly dependant on if their name was Grixis, Temur, or Jeskai. For Grixis specifically, 'how bad do you feel about your on-color Ultimatum?' as I flaunt Eerie Ultimatum in her face. The answer is probably 'at least I'm not Jund'.

@coburnsdivine.bsky.socialSep 13, 2026, 11:20 PM

I want to avenge myself for my mediocre showing a few months ago in that format, but it might be a challenge beyond me thanks to how my memory is uncooperative at best.

The amount of Magic I've played this past year is... not much. I played one SoS pre-release, attended a commander night less than 5 times. Can't say I've played much more online either. What little I have played has been with @redfade.bsky.social and/or @kjthehero.bsky.social (I'm very thankful)

Your take on why my boi Karador got powercrept by Muldrotha is already in the thread (filed under powercreep take). Anyhow, I wish for the Medusa take on best girl Thalia and her best frog Gitrog.
