    Our plucky crew heads to Rath

    We got 9 wizards back together to chase the Weatherlight to the plane of Rath. It had been a while since we had gotten together to cube and everyone was so appreciative and enjoyed getting back together. This really is a great group and I appreciate whenever I get to see them. We’d drafted this…

  • Drafting unsleeved

    Hi all, I’ve got another short write-up and a few pictures from a cubing session. This was an unsleeved white and old bordered cube. The criteria is that every card in it has to be available in white border and the older border. That’s it. So it’s an eclectic mix from revised to 7th edition,…

  • I come at last to Death’s Door

    It’s been a long time coming. Despite living in Colorado, I hadn’t been able to make either of the two previous Yeticons. I had family stuff both good and bad that lined up with the dates, so I had always been on the outside looking in. I’ve got a young kid at home so I…

  • It was big. No bigger than that…

    Last winter, on a snowy day, four wizards sat down to play Cory’s ALICE cube. Life got busy and I didn’t write anything up. But by request, today I’ll share a few pics and tell a few stories. I hope you enjoy! I love seeing the cards that I owned as a kid making a…

    Halcyon Days

    I often think back to my early days playing Magic, and the mystery that those cards held for me. I’ve now been playing Old School longer than I played the first time around. But those first memories have stuck with me after all these years. This is my origin story. Back in those days, I…

  • Summer Derby 2024: The Puzzling

    This derby has been my most fun ever. I didn’t make the Top 16 sadly, but I ended up in 22nd place, leading the hearty 5-3 cohort with a 71% OMW%. Every single one of my games and matches was incredible with wild swings and haymakers both ways, and every opponent was fun and engaging,…

  •     It’s 4 am on Friday and I’ve got a flight from Denver to Dallas at noon. Our dog is sick, and I’ve been taking her out every 2 hours through the night. It’s been snowing non-stop since Wednesday. At first, I was happy that I decided to fly rather than make the drive down…
