Yeah, I'm talking about The Color of Magic (2008)! I love the Discworld books, and just happened upon the three-episode series over the weekend. In case you needed further convincing, Tim Curry is an absolute HAM as Trymon.

Saw this on a walk in Cap Hill—guess someone doesn't like extra turns. #wotcstaff

A mail box. Written on it is "Time Warp is not a place of True Happiness Health or Love."

Time Warp

Sorcery

Target player takes an extra turn after this one.

Just when you thought you’d survived the first wave.

Gotta have A LOT of walnuts in my banana bread.

First time playing a Once Upon a Galaxy tournament, and I 5-0'd day 1! Sick!

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jul 17

You can used this to help you keep track. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jul 13

Can't tell you how good it feels to end 30+ points ahead when playing with friends who're *really good* at these kinds of crunchy games.

SO ready for my opponent casting Doctor Doom. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jun 25

Goddamit, Dinniman.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jun 16

Just found my new favorite card name. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jun 5

Drafting five Thunderdrum Soloists really stretches the definition of "soloist". #wotcstaff

This Playtest Cube deck is WILD. The Unknown Wizard as my commander + as many Playtest cards as I could jam. Perfection. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· May 3

@pastaghettii.bsky.social: Hey, wanna drafting an Unknown Event Playtest Card Cube? Me: You have ABSOLUTELY asked the right person. (I freaking LOVE playtest cards.) #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· May 2

Some more I was happy to see.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· May 2

Some that I found in the wild. #wotcstaff

May have lost my last run of One Upon A Galaxy, but I've been VERY consoled.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Apr 25

Bulk Up, flashback Bulk Up on Spectacular Skywhale has been my top #MTGStrixhaven limited closer so far. #wotcstaff

Spectacular Skywhale
{2}{U}{R}
Creature — Elemental Whale

Flying

Opus — Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, this creature gets +3/+0 until end of turn. If five or more mana was spent to cast that spell, put three +1/+1 counters on this creature instead.

Rootha was humbled in the whale’s presence. It was glorious and beautiful, all on its own terms.

1/4

Bulk Up
{1}{R}
Instant

Double target creature’s power until end of turn.

Flashback {4}{R}{R} (You may cast this card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)

Happy #MTGStrixhaven Prerelease weekend! I had a lot of fun contributing some *choice* tomes to decorate the Employee Prerelease. #wotcstaff

I know that AI results are often wrong...but this seems like intentional trolling.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Mar 2

I was soooo close to getting Mythic this season, but I kept yo-yoing in Diamond 1 and couldn't quite seal the deal. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Feb 13

I remember toying around with a stipulation commander deck where each card had a different set symbol....mostly as an excuse to play Status Symbol. Easier than I thought, but a whole cube? Godspeed. #wotcstaff

Symbol Status
{2}{G}{G}
Sorcery

Create a 1/1 colorless Expansion-Symbol creature token for each different expansion symbol among permanents you control.

Curved out in my last ECL draft...the synergy is real. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Jan 24

Aurora Awakener for 5 into Omni-Changeling might be the best feeling I've ever had in a draft. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Dec 29

Playing Imposter Cube—a cube packed with Omnipresent Imposters and cards that take advantage of that. #wotcstaff

Omnipresent Impostor
{2}
Basic Creature — Shapeshifter

Changeling

Omnipresent Impostor has all card names.

As you search your library for one or more cards, you may choose Omnipresent Impostor as one of those cards. (For example, if you search for two land cards, you may find Omnipresent Impostor and a land card.)

Riding ferries kicks ass.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Dec 14

I'm never gonna draft a TLA deck as crazy powerful as this one. #wotcstaff

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Dec 11

The original plan:

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Dec 11

A team potluck tomorrow is the perfect chance to use these official Kraft Dinner Flavor Boosters I've been saving. Instead of making 8 different bowls, I'm making one big bowl of plain Mac n' cheese and letting folks add the powder. Easy transport and makes it a fun "make your own mac" experience.

Alexander Smith@mtgalexander· Nov 22

I think I found the open color. #wotcstaff
