It's not just Mary Louke, she's just the only one who went public.
It sounds like Owen is just a clueless fuckboy, who thinks any girl in the mtg scene is into him cause he's so good. He's been sending unsolicited dick pics and harassing at least 3 other girls. Offering to trade mtg training/popularity for 'wink wink' services.
I still think it's an overreaction, but it's not completely made up either.

He is, and he's going to lose, odds are it won't even get a judge willing to hear it, it's that open and shut.
This is basically a voluntary employment status for him and he's got no leg to stand on with how many outs there are in pro contracts, unless WotC had super incompetent lawyers.
I've had to deal with attempted lawsuits over terminating interns with similar issues and we never even needed to appear in court, it was that pointless of a suit they tried to bring against us.
He MIGHT have a suit against her - but being a pro for WotC events is voluntary employment, zero leg to stand on there.
so, bought a ironman pre-release kit, so 6 of them, out of only being able to play 1 pre, i won the one i did play, ended up pulling foil gideon,2 foil karns, few of the gods, and some of the lesser uncommon PW i was looking for. worth the time i say

Ah yeah, I keep having to clarify for my fiancé that, yes if your playgroup allows it, it’s fine, but that there’s 0 chance in hell our randos playgroup is gonna say “sure why not” to side boards just so you can Karn in a lattice and make everyone miserable. Still throwing him in my Traxos deck, but it’ll be purely just to bring back in artifacts already in the deck back if they get exiled.

Somewhat related to my post in the MTG:A thread. My son is 5 and I'm thinking of introducing him to MTG soon. I haven't decided if this is a good idea or not. I thought MTG had some "casual" formats or products where basically all you have to buy is one premade deck. Is this what the Commander format is? I thought it might be a good thing to start him on. I'm not looking to start a collection, MTG is far too expensive for that.
No, go to your local game store and buy a challenger deck.
Challenger decks are out of the pack "competitive" decks that are cheapened down. Basically what ever top deck was out a year ago they make a cheap version of it and include some good cards.
It's a great start as he can see what the deck has and do small upgrades over time.
They also come with a digital version on MTGA

I wouldn’t start them on a challenger deck either. They do have intro decks that are typically mono colored and focus on the theme of the color.
Ballsy shit there guy, but cheating is rampant so, to be expected!

Other option is the Cardkingdom battle decks, probably a little simpler than a challenger deck. I bought the first set and played my buddy. He was baffled by how the blue white deck played and its win con.

Been rolling this and I'd love some suggestions on tweaking it with WotS cards.

It's not a WAR card, but I think you want some llanowar elves in there. Also, as tiggles said, frilled mystic seems pretty good in that deck. I'd cut back discovery/dispersal, Incubation/incongruity, and some of the clone effects (also, maybe run spark double instead of some of them). As for WAR cards, it depends. There's a way to go mostly mono-green, splashing blue off 4 breeding pools and stuff, and then running Nissa is sick. There's a G/u style without all the clone effects, using either more proliferate and +1/+1 counters or more counterspells.
Here's a few U/G decks to give you ideas, though not quite the same style you are going for. Stream Decker

Both lists are totally unrefined, they won't be taking down any mythic championships. That guy is definitely a brewer and not a 'top' pro, but he's still a good starting point for deck ideas.

Anyone have experience snagging a mythic edition last set off the Hasbro eBay shop? Is there a waiting page for the item that just gets a buy button when 3 o’clock hits or do you have to go search through the store? Do you get to select how many you want before or after you know if you’ve successfully gotten through the “line” (if there even is one)? We sold a bunch of cards and want to try and grab one but I’m dubious at the odds of getting one, especially not knowing what the process for it is.
Also if you are trying to do the simic insta win play evolution sage and pollebrite druid and blast zone.

If you use the Ebay app, you should be able to find via: 'seller:hasbro-toy-shop mythic'
Assuming mythic is in the listing discrip, as it should be.
