How was the new Eldraine story? I'm about to go through all of it in one go but what did everybody else think? No spoilers though.
I love that they’re doing videos for the story for Wilds of Eldraine.
Except they sound like someone reading me a bedtime story. I’ve literally fallen asleep listening to each of them. LOL!
Guess I’m going to have to go back and read the web fiction to figure out what happened.

My current favorite #EDH deck? My Riku of Two Reflections deck. It’s an art theme deck…where, if there is a clear figure in the art, the art features a “cute guy”. Obviously definitions of cute are subjective, but I’m just happy that this deck is actually kinda playable.

@falselogic In-story planeswalkers are not the same as the player planeswalkers and the lore should reflect that.
My worst #Vorthos take.
@GreatIrishElk From a #Vorthos perspective, I also like that MAT gave us one more legendary pair-up that's framed as being an aftereffect of the invasion saga. Like I recognize that they are both deans at the same school and already knew each other, but it's a cool callback to an important aesthetic feature of the main MOM set. (I also just like imagining that all the good guys are BFFs.)
I pulled both Elspeth and Norn in my prerelease pack. I can't bring myself to put them both in the same deck because there's no way I could ensure Norn ends up as a bloody stump.
I know at some point in the design stage the Phyrexian domini were going to be gods, but Wizards had second thoughts (probably to avoid a debate about how they fit in with Yawgmoth and Elesh Norn's church). I don't get calling them horrors though.
Lore-wise it would have made more sense to type them as avatars or incarations, no?

Finished reading The Thran. #Vorthos #MagicTheGathering
Reading about Yawmoth and the beginnnings of Phyrexia was fascinating. I wonder if we might see a standard set about the Thran. Somewhere in the future
Next up is In the Teeth of Akoum. Going in not expecting much after Quest for Karn.
This is one of my favorite flavor text(s) I wrote for #MTGMachine, ecstatic that it's one of the first to be revealed

Update on the pixelated #Phyrexian font. Reworked most diacritics, and therefore, most consonants. Added punctuation marks.
Next step is to make this more presentable. #Vorthos #MagicTheGathering

Last night I made the first version of a pixelated #Phyrexian font. Today I've worked to reorder the consonants and vowels in a way that felt logicals. Added quick sections for numbers and special characters. Fun little #Vorthos project. To be continued. #MagicTheGathering

The new #Phyrexia themed spindown die is excellent. If I'm interpreting it correctly, it's a very elegant way to write hexadecimal numbers in Phyrexian. Good upgrade!

Finished reading the Time Spiral trilogy the other day. Was a fun time. I loved the two Viashino warriors. I enjoyed Jeska's appearance. Radha is a new fave. #vorthos
Started yesterday with The Thran, the prelude to The Brothers' War, the origin of Yawgmoth and Phyrexia. Seemed apt while the current #MagicTheGathering storyline is all about the new Phyrexians.
I wonder, could Grist be a sparked living hive from Mirrodin? #vorthos #magicthegathering
It seems to fit.
Just finished The Hidden Planeswalker. #vorthos
Really enjoyed the viewpoints and characterisations. It neatly ties in with the mainline Boom #comics too.
What I really enjoy is the amount of planehopping. It's obvious this is about planeswalkers, so we must walk planes. The story gets plenty of room to breathe though. Excellent balance.
