“We may not remember much about this Worlds five years from now, but we’ll always remember this. And so will Wizards of the Coast.”

“Because my heart was weak, I became DQ. Because I declared it on the next turn, I declare it not on the turn I pull the sideboard card in the main game.

I am very sorry I made a mess of the big stage.”

Similar situation with Seth Manfield at a Modern GP, didn’t realize until Turn 4; fix was to put in sideboard; Context: 3 Gideons in the U/W Control list.

For those of you looking at the Twitch directory and wondering why we’re the only ones not playing Arena right now, that’s because Wizards of the Coast is presenting the Guilds of Ravnica 24-Hour Early Access Streamer Event, and hundreds of streamers are taking part. Players from previous Preprerelease guests like ProJared and Noxious to esports folks like Kripp and Trump, Twitch is all MTGArena all the time today. Clearly this is the biggest Magic event of the past 7 days, at least according to Wizards’ advertising (no tea no shade), but we’ve been busy filming the Complete Guilds of Ravnica Set Review (available now on a YouTube near you) so I guess we missed the boat there. But in an effort to stay hip and relevant, how should Magic Mics get with the times?
