After the Prerelease last night, I have updated my Galadriel-deck 💚🤍💙 I know she is not actually a good elf-Commander but I am just going for flavour here 😌 the mechanics are all over the place but we got some counters, some scrying and now some landfall in there too! ☺️

I have been reading some stuff 🫠 Finished @adriandaub.bsky.social 's book a short while ago, am about a third into @naomialderman.bsky.social 's vision of The Future and just this week I started dipping into @koheisaito.bsky.social 's new book. Together, those three books develop a bit of a dynamic🥲

Three books, all three with pink and reddish covers. Adrian Daub's Was das Valley herrschen nennt, Naomi Alderman's The Future and Saito Kohei's Am Ende des Fortschritts.

Since we are on the topic of fungi... I spotted what looks like some slime flux on this tree! Insects are having a good time.

For the Pride event and just generally, I printed out some TLOU themed proxies for my TLOU deck. It is a fungi sacrifice deck and I can't wait to have Dina and Ellie as my Commanders ❤️💚🖤 (sadly, the toner was on its last legs there...)

Some Magic cards with homemade printer proxies. There is a version of Halana and Alena with Bill and Frank from the TV series version of The Last of Us. A Tarrian's Soul Cleaver as Ellie's knive, a Sol Ring as a Firefly pendant and Dina Soul Steeper as Dina from The Last of Us Part 2.

I got to play my snake deck tonight and it is so much fun. The second time I did a turn one Sol Ring and soon after managed to swing at everyone and half their life ☺️

It was one of the few cards that I remembered over the years and I am glad to see he kept it. Also, I spotted the old Ultra Pro card album in the panel when Emi hands over her collection to her mother 😉 The manga is trying really hard to get a lot of tiny details from the late 90s right.

A manga laid out on a card collecting Album. In the manga, a girl hands over a box with a playmat, two card collecting albums and a deckbox. The sliver of the cover of the album that is visible to the reader shows the same title as the card collection album that the manga is laid out on, reading "Ultra Pro Collectors Card Album"

Some weeks ago my brother gave me his old card collection (and I mean OLD OLD) and this week I got the new volume of Destroy all Humans and saw a familiar card 😁 actually the Seraph was a card that I got from a booster back then and it was a Big Deal™️

Picture of a manga page from Destroy all Humans. The card Seraph, an angel in golden armour is being played. On the manga there is the actual card, that appears in the story being laid out.

Some new and some old cards to put in my Final Fantasy Wizards and Sorceresses Deck 😈

Five Magic cards on a colourful piece of cloth. In the upper row are Mana Sculpt and Stock Up from the current set. In the lower row are Diplomatic Immunity and Counterspell from Mercadian Masques and a Demonic Tutor from the Revised Edition

I got my precon all sleeved up for next week! I thought about playing it out of the box but I couldn't resist swapping some cards out. Is this an upgrade? We will see... I'm excited to play it! 💚

A deck of black and green Magic cards with Dina, Essence Brewer as Commander. It is the Witherbloom Pestilence Precon with 7 cards swapped out.

Seven magic cards. Garruk, Caller of Beasts, Garruk, Cursed Huntsman, Scavenger's Talent, Hazel of the Rootbloom, Ygra, Eater of All, Rottenmouth Viper and Sarulf, Realm Eater.

I made a budget fairy deck out of cards that I already had and 10 more cards that I ordered for each less than 1€ 💸 a lot of really good fairy cards have become very expensive but this one performed well enough and was fun to play. Playing a land and passing the turn is a fun power move 😏

My latest deck! I wanted to make a Queen Marchesa Deck that encourages players to attack each other instead of me, but without the goading mechanic. I only played it once so far but it was fun!

Some weeks ago I started painting watercolors and it's really nice and relaxing. I really wanted to paint a scene from 28 Weeks Later The Bone Temple. Humans in watercolor are difficult, but I really like how it captures the atmosphere. Nothing wrong with peace and respite 😌🌾

A watercolor painting of two figures sitting next to each other in long yellow grass. The figure on the left has an orange skin tone and a bald head, it faces the other figure and its face is visible to the viewer. The figure on the right has a darker skin tone and long black curly hair, falling over its shoulders as well as a bushy beard, it is facing away from the viewer. Both figures are looking over a valley of green grass, with tall darker trees and a forest in the background. At the far left of the painting there is a grey pillar.

About a week ago, I revived my first Tamagotchi, a model from 1997. I remember the criticism of the devices back then, saying they were putting too much stress on children. Well, the main thing I realised is that it beeps rarely, you can easily keep it fed by checking maybe once an hour.

Ah yes, the joys of watching good old DVDs. Who remembers this classic??

This weekend I updated my Final Fantasy themed Spellslinger deck. When FF was announced, I really wanted to play a Sorceress themed deck with Edea as Commander but I was a bit disappointed in the Edea of the main set being mono-blue. With the holiday release, I finally have a better Edea!

A red/blue/black deck of magic cards laid out on a tabletop. It is a spellslinger deck with Edea, Possessed Sorceress as Commander. There are mainly instants, sorceries and Wizards, such as The Emperor of Palamecia, Vivi Ornitier, Kuja Genome Sorcerer, two Ultimecias and another Edea in the deck.

I could finally put together my deck from The Last of Us Secret Lair. I have seen a lot of decklists but I wanted to have it as flavourful as possible with a fungus / sacrifice theme. So looking forward to trying it out! 🍄

A Commander deck of magic the gathering, laid out on a tabletop. The two Commanders are Ellie Vengeful Hunter and Abby Merciless Soldier. The deck is mostly made up of fungus creatures.

It's friday so I got to play my Summoner Deck! I am happy with the way it plays 💖 I first made it in august but I think it has reached its final form now...

Das hier gab's vorgestern, nie so lecker Rosenkohl gegessen! Was ich nie mache, ist bei Lieferando oder so zu bestellen, dann eher Dosenravioli.
