#HMC #ICA2026 #precon

Ever notice how every precon deck has exactly one card everyone immediately cuts and one card that somehow ends up being the best piece in the deck? Those janky includes hit different sometimes.

Who else is already thinking about what deck to bring to Commander night this weekend? I keep swapping out cards and second-guessing everything. This is half the fun, right?

Now I'm definitely an old frame #MTG guy, but my biggest takeaway from this particular #Precon is how amazing Ice Age era art looks in the Eighth Edition card frames. Especially the white cards like Swords to Plowshares and Disenchant. Super crisp.

Bit of a treat to start the week: someone had actually uploaded an #Azorius Ascendant vs #Rakdos Bloodsport gameplay video to Youtube! The reviews are extremely polarising though: this is both the best and the worst #MTG #Precon from #Ravnica block.

The Advanced decklists that used to come with every #Precon box are a fascinating slice of #MTG history. For those into community formats like #Premodern these can be a source of inspiration. Well, other decks can be. Probably not this one, eh.
