As Dominaria braces itself against the impending Phyrexian invasion, we remember that it isn’t the ONLY plane in peril. From the arid wastes of Amonkhet to the colourful landscapes of Lorwyn, no world has smaller problems than the plane of Segovia. ow.ly/38Ep50KWqj7

A Babelfish for the The Forgotten Realms? We DIVE into the murky waters of language in D&D. 🐟!? Often a throwaway in character creation, the disparate languages your party speaks can be a source of drama and mystery if played right! 🎲 ow.ly/vSVg50KLPNN

Rant of Valakut is dusting off his Arena account for Historic Vesperlark Reanimator! Some of the Modern pieces are missing, but the core of the deck is all there. Run through his adaptation to the Historic meta. 🐣 ow.ly/gZUr50Kz8mk

Rant of Valakut adapts Vesperlark Reanimator to the new threats of the Modern meta! Delving dragons, pilfering monkeys and a rainbow of quick elementals? This calls for a bit of an overhaul... ow.ly/28gF50KnCaQ

There are so many ways to play MTG: from EDH, Modern, and Pauper, to niche games of Horde, Wizard's Tower, or Oathbreaker. This flexibility is only matched by the humble deck of playing cards. Today Rant of Valakut mashes up draft with poker! ♣♠♥♦ ow.ly/3VXg50KagUb

Death is an end. It need not be THE end. When a character dies, it affects the whole party and campaign. Even though we reroll and pick up again, a part of us is lost forever. Rant of Valakut processes the recent loss of two characters. 😔 ow.ly/vhML50JF6aw

Rant of Valakut explores the challenge and pitfalls of building a COLOURLESS COMMANDER DECK! Grab an Eldrazi, jam in all those utility lands you usually cut, then... make your friends cry by obliterating the table! 😭 Ahh, EDH at its finest. ow.ly/BXZC50J5yJ7

Magic cards offer a tiny snapshot into a greater story and setting, making them PERFECT plot hooks for Dungeon Masters looking for inspiration. D&D can use their combination of art, flavour text and rules to spark a MULTITUDE of exciting ideas. 💡🤯 ow.ly/wHw950ILaRj

Rant of Valakut revisits his first foray into Modern with Dirmir Inspired Control! It's a deck that looks to tap early and untap often, getting max value off of Inspired triggers, like fixing your hand using Disciple of Deceit. ow.ly/Y8xT50Ix6MK

We dive into Worldbuilding on the plane of Vryn, a backwater somewhere out in the blind eternities. Notably the birthplace of Jace Beleren, this plane of industrial mana harvest serves themes of climate change, workers’ rights, and societal collapse. ow.ly/ijQb50IlZFK

Artisan Commander is growing up. With no Cyclonic Rift or Wrath of God to worry about, plus heaps of great uncommon legends, it's no wonder. Rant of Valakut is right at home here brewing up lists! Shessra, Death's Whisper heads up DEATH'S PEASANTS. ow.ly/Ywqp50IaG1t
