@Mycroft ay i've got a silly/fun mtg question:

a petsite i'm on lets you name them, and both Yawgmoth and Phyrexia are available, but I only have space for one. Who should I go with? (I already snagged Memnarch)

@catterfly I'm afraid I don't have a good grasp on overall mtg lore - mainly limited to Ravnica, a bit of Innistrad, and interested in Dominaria. Phyrexia and Yawgmoth sound familiar, but I couldn't place them.

I know of Griselbrand (pronounced GRZLBRND!! according to one podcast I listen to), but not much else.

@Mycroft oh man!! those are some good parts, tbh.

yawgmoth is/was a Dominaria big bad, and phyrexia is the plane/entity that corrupted Karn and Mirrodin.

i found a bunch more names were available though, and now i Really can't choose, so i've put picking the last one on hold flkgj ty tho!!!!

@catterfly Ahhh, yes, I'd seen phyrexiaN a lot. Still not sure where they came from, and I think I conflated them with Eldrazi for a time. I do remember they had something to do with artifacts, and I wonder if that was because they were artificial, or the world they conquered was artificial? Or relatedly both?
