Updated the Orzhov Lifegain guide and decklist for Reality Fracture. I have gotten 6 trophies with different versions of the archetype since the set came out on MTGO, and I think the deck is very well positioned and this is a great time to pick it up

Gonna call it now, Boros Pixie will be lucky to hit 45% winrate
Here's the Standard metagame for Magic World Championship 32!
Full details in the article: magic.gg/news/magic-world-ch…
Been thinking about this card a lot for Lifegain. Bat has been an overperformer, and this looks better in interactive matchups. The question is Landfall, where Bat shines, but there you put them in awkward spots where they can't attack or block, since Moseo can just Recycle it

Big update to my Lifegain guide, with the list me and the great @gabnassif used in the AC qualifier. I didn't get there but Gab qualified, going 7-2, 4-0 in the two days.

Trophy #13 with the same list, this time beat Mono G Landfall x2, Dimir Midrange, Jund Sac and Jeskai PW Control.
Feels solid outside the manabase, between the 8 fastlands and the Encampment I am feeling short on untapped lands later on. Gonna try -1 Dalkovan +1 Arashin
Trophy #12, trying out a list with 22 lands.
Beat Dimir Mid x 2, Dwarves, Jund Sac and UW Control
The bats were excellent, as was the SB VoV. Ajani was good, could also try Channeler.
The 8 fastlands hurt on turn 5-6 going for Cleric, but not sure if there is a better option

Finally got my invite to the 2027 Regional Championship in São Paulo! 🏆
Third time’s the charm! 🔥
Here’s the decklist I played today. @mpredrag201
See you in São Paulo! 🇧🇷
Magic system is one of the greatest features of the game.
I recommend listening/reading the transcript of this episode of Rosewater's ( MTG head Designer) podcast where he talks about it in depth

Lands solve so many design issues under the hood
There's no way that people ACTUALLY thing the salvageable thing about Magic is the resource system, right?
The resource system in Magic is the TEXTBOOK, SQUARE ONE thing that other games look at and go "How can we improve upon this to remove it from our game?"
There are PLENTY of things to look at Magic for and to go, "Aw, man. This game is sick because of ___ that doesn't convert well in other games"
BUT THE RESOURCE SYSTEM?
C'mon bro.
