#MagicTheGathering hot take: I simply cannot comprehend how the Vivi Cauldron deck is or ever was dominating Standard. I've been playing it myself for a couple weeks and it has been TERRIBLE. Like, my win rate with the deck is probably somewhere around 15%. It feels like a fragile 4-card combo that folds to pretty much any interaction or disruption from the opponent.

I wish I knew what I was missing....

Nice magic night tonight at the bar. EoE again, so I put together a strange BG aggro(?) deck that was good enough to squeak out a 2-1 record for the night. Snagged a couple pretty alt-arts too!

I joined a "Magic for beginners" group on FB to lend the benefit of my experience to newcomers, and if there is one thing I have learned there it is that reading the card does not in fact explain the card #MTG

Buu and I haven't opened packs since we stopped playing Standard (sometime shortly after the Theros block, IIRC.) Since then we've just bought cards directly.

When #EdgeOfEternities was spoiled, I knew I wanted Evendo, Waking Haven. I've been (im)patiently waiting for prices to come down. I was gonna buy it this week regardless.

But last week I decided to roll the dice and bought a booster box. It arrived today. Not only did I get Evendo, I got the /borderless/ version of it! I'm so stoked!!

We got some other good cards too. I'm still opening packs and will total up the spoils when done.

But *SQUEEEEE!!*
