“One Piece has delayed the debut of its Fish-Man Island remaster thanks to the Major League Baseball World Series,” is a sentence that exists now. Baseball is already a huge sport in Japan, but there's added interest in this year's World Series due to the fact that it features Japanese superstar Shohei Ohtani. So tell me: what celebrity news could delay Magic events?

This week (thanks to BWheelerMTG) the popular sports media personality Stephen A. Smith responded to a Tweet asking him whether he’d pick a Black Lotus or a Sol Ring first in a Vintage Cube draft, and Stephen A. responded wonderfully just based on how epic the original fiery ring’s art was. So tell me: what’s something you know nothing about but you’re first-picking based solely on vibes?

While the Regional Championship did draw the sharks and the grinders, it also drew a few real estate investors. Specifically, one player registered 2 billion card decks containing nothing… but basic lands. Now, that’s a fun little joke and the player did not in fact bring 2 billion cards to the RCQ but it begs the question: what’s the most Magic cards you’ve ever seen in one place?

The Finisher
The 50th season of SNL kicked off last week, the 47th season of Survivor kicked off not too long ago too. The 36th season of The Simpsons also debuted last week, and it was a “season finale” parody that lampooned classic finales of years past. These are some crazy long streaks, but they pale in comparison to Magic’s 100-plus premier sets, so tell me: if Magic were to be releasing their last set ever, what would you hope was in it?
