Barely played MTG in 2025, but decided to get back into the MTGO streets. 4-1 first league of the year with UW Riddler featuring Loch Mare. Lost to goblins when I couldn't consign Hexing Squelcher ward triggers.
Enjoy this beautiful moment:
I value fun and interaction with my opponent so much that multiple people have told me a lot of my match losses come from joking around too much and getting distracted.
Still do it though.
Good to be competitive, but love to have fun
Waiting for my flight
Shoutout to @ecobaronen.bsky.social for running Ecoternal Weekend.
I made top 4 with Jeskai PO, winning a four day badge and entry to the vintage main event at EW NA.
I was debating not attending EW this year, but playing this event and winning entry was exactly the push I needed.
List:
Flight to EW booked. I'll see you all in Pittsburgh.
P.S.
Not locked on any lists yet, but looking to potentially borrow 1x Opal and/or 1x Tabernacle
A message from my sister this morning
Won the vintage challenge last night with Jewel.
Have not been able to play magic lately so was nice to show back up and snag the win.
I like simulacrum synthesizer. People tell me it is bad, but I'm often told the lists I play are insane. May as well play what you like.
When / where? First I'm hearing of this event

Comrade, vintage is the people's format.
Sharing my real showcase list on this platform (pretty much same as on X but -1 Island, +1 Sink)
Increase in Null Rods from Lurrus decks has me lean towards 2nd abrade main or by force in side for next time.
Still really liking Lurrus Breach with 2x PO. Unsure on Vault + Key but feels worthwhile
A+ move. I do it on a regular basis and occasionally text them after.
"That's sweet you two went out for coffee" etc
Nightmare inducing partnership
The first AZ vintage league I participated in was open decklist.
They quickly realized they should be closed back up again.
I just watched some pigeons fight over a Cheeto outside a QuikTrip in Phoenix.
I do somehow respect the winner more than the others.
Good game, well played.
Recorded a great match vs. Doomsday from the showcase yesterday

6-2 for 23rd place in the showcase challenge today.
I've continued experimenting with Grixis Lurrus and felt that with the uptick in PO and decrease in bowmasters, it was a good time for Ragavan to show back up.
Both my losses were to bowmasters.
Still really enjoying the deck

4-0'd the legacy prelim this morning so I have QPs to play one of the showcases this weekend.
Swords to Plowshares is still a good magic card
Futurama taught me that sometimes you have to do what you love, even if it's not a good idea
Played limited for the first time since New Capenna and went undefeated.
Turns out tutoring up Marketback Walker off Gearhulk and drawing 6 cards with it ends a lot of games.
Went hiking this morning and came upon this plaque reminding me I should play MTGO
Today marks one month of homelessness.
It's been a difficult transition, but during this time I've been able to see friends and family that I haven't connected with in many years.
I've been hiking a lot to recenter myself, and exercising again feels great.
Hopefully will be returning to MTGO soon
I've been on the road throughout California the past month or so.
In that time I've been approached four times by people about my license plate.
All of them have been fellow Persians also named Amir. Still waiting for the day when someone recognizes it from MTGO
The Enigma of Amigara Fault except it's merging onto I-95 during Thanksgiving traffic
If you're responsible for cooking the turkey this thanksgiving, please spatchcock it.
Your friends and family will be surprisingly happy with the result.
EW takeaways:
Vintage: Grixis Inti
Legacy: Esper Control
I missed a big signal from my testing. Despite putting up solid results with each list, I was never able to 5-0 because I would fall asleep during a match at least once per league.
Working nights is tough and sleep deprivation catches up
