Nope you gotta be pro and top 4 a GP or get invited. Probably nO one here.

Don't Worry I'm working on it. I don't do anything unless I'm committed to doing it 100% you guys are kinda like my support group (obviously not just mine) but this is pretty much where I troll to build my decks take advice and occasionally have witty banter with black jester. As we roll into the new format with ravnica I'm going to be deathly serious about top 8 at the next super iq. I'm recruiting locals to band with, because there is power in numbers. The better I get the better I get, the more people I want to bring with me because iron sharpens iron.

Thanks bud, I would love a mastermind group on here to. We all are pretty supportive of each other anyway, but it'd be cool if we all made a point to create a collective unity of players

Now would be a good time to "make a move". During major shifts in the meta, players are all scrambling to find the next "Delver" or "Cawblade". If you can recognize it early, you can do some damage. 💢👊💪💩

Once you figure it out maybe, but the meta shifts while everyone is trying to figure it out. The shifting meta makes other decks more relevant than others.

When you shake things up, the cream rises to the top while 💩 sinks.


Unless you eat a lot of fatty foods, then your 💩 will float too, but let's not spoil my metaphor, eh?  ;D

If I roll my eyes any further back, you'll be able to see my optic nerve.

I am down for this. I have been thinking the same thing. I missed the Boston GP. I would love to devote some time to crafting a community deck. I have been cleaning up at my local game stores. I know it is a bit of a pipe dream but what the hell, why not. I also know that the competition at my lgs is not even close to the caliber at a GP top 8 but what the hell.

I would've been happy with a *sad trombone*
You sure you don't mean a rusty trombone?  HAY-OO! 🙏

I don't think there will be anyone that is a part of this community and will play in the pro tour. Reasons?

1. Most of our forum browsers are teenagers and adolescents. It's going to be a while.
2. We have a too casual forum here. There is no "serious standard" forum, only homebrews and FNMs.
3. Pros work in playtesting groups, not forums.
4. Pros need to "give it all". Most of what we have here are students and 20-30s that have a job.
