One interesting thing about #CMRLegends is that the line for a common in a Commander format is a bit different. We did what was right for draft, and that created some unusual commons! Since I've been asked some questions, I want to take a moment to chat about Pauper.
#wotcstaff First, on one particular downshift! Red and black are the colors of mass damage to creatures. However, in Pauper, the most damage red can deal with a playable sweeper is 1! Having one in red could open up control strategies to red, and also plays well with bigger red creatures.

Hi everyone! I thought it would be worth taking a moment to talk about white in Commander. There's no way I can do this topic justice in a single tweet, so it's going to be a long thread - I encourage you to read the whole thing. :) Let's get started!
#wotcstaff #CMRLegends So to set the ground floor to begin: we recognize that white needs some Commander love. More then ever, and especially in the past 9ish months, this has been a very front-of-mind issue. Commander is a format built upon ramp and card draw - and these are both weaknesses of white.

Thank so many of you for watching the panel live today! Wow, what a rush to be able to talk about this stuff. Naturally, I've spent the past hour doing nothing but reading thoughts about Commander Legends! So here's a thread of notes and thoughts that may be helpful:
#wotcstaff 60 CARDS FOR COMMANDER DRAFT DECK SIZE
We tried a LOT of different numbers for this. Here is why 60:
-First and foremost, 60 played great
-You still have tons of variety, since you've never played the deck before.
-It lets you find the cards you're excited about.

You all know I travel. You all know I play Magic. But it's when the two intersect that the most amazing things happen. So here's a thread about an event I ran - come along for the ride!
#wotcstaff I'm in New York City this week, and wanted to see a bunch of my friends from all different walks of life. So, I decided I'd do one of the things I love: set up an event! The fabulous store @HexAndCompany just opened up a new shop on Monday - and they were game to play host!

I've been receiving a ton of questions from people curious about how #MTGBattle partners show up in packs and what permutations are possible. So here's a comprehensive thread to how Partner With cards appear in Battlebond booster packs. Let's dive in!
#wotcstaff #mtgbattle 1. If you open one Partner With card, you will always open its buddy in the same booster pack. So if you open Pir, you'll also always get Toothy. Makes sense!

I've been working on Brawl ever since Gerritt Turner brought it to my attention ages ago, and in addition to the article today, I also want to provide a bit of additional context about how it came to be, and the story behind Gerritt creating it. So here's a thread! #wotcstaff (And just to clarify first: this story isn't to say Brawl is only for new players. Even the most seasoned R&D veterans have had a blast with it! But I like its creation story because it shows how it's a great way to game with your less experienced Magic friends, too.) #wotcstaff
