Hi All,
When I asked last month for topics to discuss, someone mentioned my thoughts on Commander Brackets and Unbanning cards. I'm sorry, but this will have to wait. I'm feeling way too out of it to gather my thoughts properly.
If you check the collections section of the website regularly, you might have seen new collections pop up, such as the Fancy Basic land being sorted into 5 different collections by basic land type, and In Stock Foils that have a value of at least $5. I've been adding new collections as customers ask after a collection they'd find useful, so it's worth checking back there from time to time.
I've been binging Tarkir Dragonstorm drafts. Currently it's my favourite limited format since Neon Dynasty. Almost as fun as the original Khans of Tarkir. Even when I'm 0-3 I'm still having fun.
I started playing a lot of 5-colour dragons, but now everyone else has started picking up on the fact that Dragonstorm Globe is actually a really good card and the +1/+1 counter actually matters quite a lot and It's been harder to draft leading to me losing a lot more =/. I've been posting some images of drafts over on the Magic at Willis Instagram ( https://www.instagram.com/magicatwillis/ ).
Last thing I want to mention briefly that may feel out of left field, but stick with me. Have any of you heard of an indie video game called Blue Prince? It's a game that's blowing up massively right now with nothing but glowing, stunning reviews. Interesting fact for you all, this game is designed by the owner of the website Mythic Spoiler (One of the sites for up-to-date spoilers on yet unreleased cards. He's been using the ad revenue from that website to create this Blue Prince game he's always wanted to create, and I think that's pretty neat.

On the topic of pretty neat, a few of my good Dunedin magic playing friends have been working on a super fun board game which is on Kickstarter right now. I'd appreciate it if you took a look and considered supporting them. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ikarangi-labs/lifeship-a-narrative-skirmish-board-game-with-real-choices
