As I don't get to write much anymore, I hope the community will tolerate a quick forum post to let those who are interested know that I have written some blog posts, they will be going up over the next few days and will feature my final draft EMN deck lists, updates to those decks with new cards for Kaladesh, and new Kaladesh brews. Here is the first post for those interested, and thanks in advance to megabeast for the comment he will surely make pointing out that I don't post here much and that I shouldn't promote my stuff to anyone, ever :)

Ayyyy, he's back!

It'll be good to start hearing your thoughts again outside of the haphazard nature of Streams :)

Hey Dan, I had meant to check out your blog some time back but mislaid the link :(. Also for various reasons not being playing so much but got back into it over the last few weeks and buzz over KLD (okay folks may not be switched on much by it but it's a 'pretty set' and promises to be different if nothing else. SD

As far as i'm concerned your material is always welcome here. Your articles are what drew me to this forum in the first place back during Origins season.

You posted twice in the last week or two..

#offthehook

Glad you're back.. hopefully to stay.. and hopefully streaming won't be an exercise in frustrating restarts. So cute that you're thinking of me.. keep us updated with your blogs.

Tolerate? Ha! Your blog was one of my tools to get back into magic/duels. Some very insightful stuff. Glad you are posting again.

When you played my deck on your stream, I was pretty amazed that you made every play I would have. It took me a lot of testing to be that comfortable w/ the deck. Impressive.

Look forward to more content. Wish you were on Steam, would love to play you.

If it wasn't for your massive rant on one of my Youtube vids about my player attitude, I'd never have come to your streams to watch you fail 0_0 and now here we are...

Taking a look at your KLD decklists on the helper makes me feel a bit better about praising the strength of Fragmentize too.

Don't forget to rate! If you are still salty about the "attitude rant" you can one-star me :)

Much like Mark Ruffalo in the Avengers, my secret is I'm always salty :)

Nice list. I don't agree with your esper control list, i don't play superfriends or mill, but i like that spirit deck. I have 4-5 different cards in mine, but i'm happy you made it work and you reached the finals in the xbox tournament.
About temurge, this is my favourite paper deck too in standard, but there are too many little things that don't make it work in duels (Emrakul but i tried Decimator as finisher, no unkeep for elder deep fiend, only 1 kozilek's return).

Wagner, seeing how you must have caught the writing and Magic itch once again, you think you might make a blog entry a week or two after AER releases to let us know which decks are doing well and such? I like those early impression blog entries you used to do, especially with all that sexy data.

Especially cuz I tore up the last deck i had of yours (EDM Friends final cut) in the hopper and should always have some CGB representation in my wheelhouse.

Thanks Barney, but the magic bug and the writing bug are different insects. At best I'll make an nga post, but my efforts on the blog have ended. I will be putting my time into my twitch channel. Dont get confused by the amount of nga posts lately either, my wife is confined to the couch recovering from surgery and I am taking a few days off work to keep her company, meaning the ipad and I are spending a lot of time killing time on the net. I imagine a more normal experience will be more twitch and less typing.

Yeah! That's why if I want to work out the kinks in my decks I'll just send them to CGB to test drive.

Necromantic Summons on a thread! And I entered the hauntedflower site to check the new blog entry and there's nothing new. So I continued reading and it's just "the other canadian" guy reviving an old thread!

If I wanted to check the kinks of a deck, I'd just play versus with CGB. He's such a sore loser, that he'll come up with a solution to your deck immediately :P
