Star City Games will not require proof of vaccination at its next SCG CON in Syracuse July 8-10. They released this info during the Spoiler video for Baldur's Gate They are not releasing this info on the SCG Con website. Only a tweet with a twitlonger link. https://twitter.com/SCGCON/status/1526586115846819842 According to this guy (and I've seen other tweets that say SCG's discord did get flooded with anti-vaxxers): https://www.reddit.com/r/magicTCG/comments/uru1si/comment/i8zf66f/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 They have been banning people on their discord for asking about why the requirement was removed. They've been letting anti-vax and conspiracy theorists go wild on there. Just another random tweet for no reason https://twitter.com/BarbariansRidd1/status/1526645542834479104 edit: they will require masks but not proof of vaccination.

my coworker was telling me about a binder of old magic cards she had when she was a kid, when i asked her how old she said "i dont know mid or early 90s?" i told her she could potentially be sitting on a college fund for her kids. well she finally brought the binder in for me to look at it and no one was more disappointed then I when i realized it was all 4th edition and fall empires. just straight up trash

So something I noticed in the product overview article, it indicated that you only get 3 boosters in the prerelease kit? Not sure why so few, any ideas?

Prerelease for CL2 is also a special draft format not sealed. You draft 2 cards per pick and make a 60 card deck.

Still a bit disappointing, I like the extra cards and variety you get from sealed, with this you’ll wind up with a few specific colors and not much variety.

Looking at the cards I have I'm not sure what to put in the janky 5 color Spirit deck. I got Kami War, Hinata Dawn-Crowned, the five legendary lands, and from my old deck I got four Thief of Hope and four Drogskoll Captain. But then I hit a snag deciding between a whole bunch of stuff haha. Any tips on deckbuilding I could read somewhere to help with this dilemma? Edit: I got two Eiganjo Restoration and 3 Go-Shintai of Shared Purpose to spirit token spam.

Very unfortunate given that the continental US is in the middle of a surge that no one wants to acknowledge. Good luck to anyone venturing out into crowded indoor spaces in the next couple of weeks.

Background seems like a mechanic that is adding a legal house rule of "hey I want to have these colors in my deck too, everyone cool with that?" for everyone.

It only works for specific Baldur's Gate legends from this set I believe? So no giving Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar a chef's background to be able to play green cards. edit: https://twitter.com/BasicMountain/status/1526619200390934528?t=7y8HiS2FO8LvFWMLanvg2A&s=19 LifeLynx fucked around with this message at 02:38 on May 18, 2022 |

Partner already did that. If anything these restricted versions of partners are much better because they allow wotc to have much better control over what gets paired with what in the future

You can play them in the 99 (98) of any deck as enchantments, but they can only "partner" with legends that have the "choose a background" mechanic.

Elminster is so close to a homerun, just fix him to create Adventurer tokens! He's known to throw random PCs into quests not summoning a billion Fairy Dragons!!! From a Vorthos point of view that set had no chance, so im not even gonna try to say anything else.

So wait, since this guy is himself a Background, does this mean I could take him, Wilson, Refined Grizzly, and then one of the other Background enchantments (like Noble Heritage or Criminal Past) to make a 3-color commander deck?

They haven't announced the rules, but it's basically Partner, so almost certainly not, but you could have 2 Faceless Ones as your commanders.

Possibly. I wouldn't bank on it since the mechanics article used the word "second". However, both the mechanics article and the reminder text on the card aren't technically rules so wait until the rules update before to be certain. That said:  The templating on this card is breaking my brain: You can't choose the same player thrice right?

Correct When you can choose a thing more than once it'll say something like "You may choose the same mode more than once." on the confluence cycle Edit: A bit dis-analogous actually, but second and third player is pretty clear imo
