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
