Magic taught me how to lose.I used to be both super competitive and an incredibly poor loser. It was affecting my relationships. One of the worst ways that cane out was while playing commander, since there was one guy in the pod a with a much higher budget and I was always throwing tantrums about how that was unfair.So I decided to fix it. I built a deck headed by Olivia, Mobilized for War full of madness draft chaff. The deck had enough synergy that playing it felt like I was doing something, like winning was possible, but wasn’t powerful enough that winning was actually *likely.*Then I sat down with that deck and I forced myself to keep losing games until I could tolerate it.It worked! Nowadays people love playing with me and I always try to make sure everyone’s having a good time, regardless of who wins. I’m a much better person because of this game. Thanks for everything that you do!

Thanks for sharing.
