Yes, I will be playing my gimmick deck for the 5th game in the row.
No, I don’t feel like playing any of my other decks

Price is definitely an issue but anywhere you go to play commander people are usually cool with proxies as long as they are legible.
I play Commander every weekend. As far as MTG goes its such a paradox.
It is the worst way to get started playing MTG while also being the most marketed towards newer players.
If you’re gonna get into it, I’d highly recommend low power like they are saying (everyone using unmodified precons) or playing a different format on something like MTG Arena first so you can get familiar with game rules and “The Stack”
PSA
Humans are animals.
We don't mean this figuratively or pejoratively: we mean this in a literal, factual sense.
Humans are part of the kingdom animalia, which comprises all animals.
As such, if you think, say, or write things like:
"humans and animals"; or
"humans versus animals";
... you're setting humans apart as something other than what we are, as if we're somehow above other animals, which is incredibly anthropocentric and flawed
It's a bit like saying "2 and even numbers", which implies that 2 isn't an even number. Instead, you might say "2 and other even numbers"
So, when you are talking or writing about any animals, please kindly specify whether you mean:
human animals
non-human animals
all animals
Thank you 🫶
Democratic Party: We are spending $20M to figure out how to talk to male voters
Mamdani: Save your money. Endorse me. I have +45 favorability with male voters
Dem Party: We meant young male voters
Mamdani: I have +73 favorability with men under 45
Dem Party: We're not endorsing you dude. Go away. Now, why is our favorability is -54? Let's spend $20M on wealthy consultants to figure it out!
Always eager to have my mind changed. Hoping to hear profound ideas and share them as well. Please challenge my thoughts.
