Always sad to see a big name go like this. I wonder if this will have any long-term ramifications for the future of Commander. Sheldon was always firm that Commander stay just a little outside the hand of Wizards.

I had not known who this was until reading the post, this is sad :( What a great person.

Unbelievably sad 😞 He contributed so so much to EDH and Magic in general, perhaps more than anyone else aside from MaRo/Garfield considering how impactful the format is. Dealt with a constant stream of criticism too despite all that.

Stupid cancer. I'll be thinking of him and his family, hope they find peace.
