Did not expect a personality-typology article about the MtG color wheel would make me cry, but here we are:

This is everything I want to be, and it helps me see how to get there and yet how far off it still is.

@indi

"Achilles from The Iliad is black/red, as is the political persona of Donald Trump and the protagonist of The Fountainhead, Howard Roark."

That's it I'm never playing red/black decks again.

@somekindofcrow Yeah TBH all the philosophy-of-black stuff I've read really just drives home why it never really bothered me back in high school when my Christian mom said "okay you can play it as long as you don't use the black cards". ;)

It always sorta gave me bad feels.

@indi Yeah that makes sense.

See the thing is I did play exclusively red/black decks in middle school and that kind of does describe my mindset in middle and early high school. I mean that person is dead at this point, but I still feel called out. :)

I think right now I'm more red/blue/white, but not necessarily in the way that they described it...

@somekindofcrow To be clear, I don't think someone's taste in game flavor has anything to do with their personality in a general sense, but you may've already noticed that I'm one of those folks who's basically ALWAYS playing for bleed. ;)
