Gaming to Prevent Suicide


Magic from the working class. Unfiltered, inclusive, and unforgettable.
If you’ve been following the journey of Blue Collar MTG (BCCMTG) over the last year, you know that this community is built on more than just high-level plays and deck techs. It’s built on representation, hard work, and the belief that Magic: The Gathering belongs to the people who keep the world turning.
After an explosive first year—reaching 15,000 followers and being featured at major events like DreamHack Dallas—we are ready to take that momentum and turn it into a positive impact for the community.
We are thrilled to announce a special partnership between Blue Collar MTG and InkMats to support HBMO (Hunter Burton Memorial Open) 2026.
InkMats was founded on a simple principle: supporting the humans who make this game beautiful. As an “Artist-Forward” company, InkMats stands firmly against the use of AI-generated art, ensuring that every playmat you buy supports a real person who has dedicated their life to their craft.
In honor of HBMO 2026, we have set up a dedicated landing page for this special event. A portion of the proceeds from purchases made through InkMats will go directly toward supporting the Hunter Burton Memorial Open and our vital work in the gaming community.

Whether we’re on a construction site, in a warehouse, or at a tabletop, the Blue Collar MTG community stands for looking out for one another. By partnering with HBMO, we are extending that “working class” solidarity to mental health advocacy.
We’ve already raised over $17,500 for The Trevor Project, and we know this community can step up again. Let’s show the world that the working class of MTG has the biggest heart in the game.
