So I was watching Marvel's Runaways just now (which is a really bad series, won't recommend) and one of the characters just made a MTG reference but I don't seem to get it. Can anyone help me understand what this guy means?
"Maybe you saw some dark dimension version of me, okay? Minds kind of get broken over there. Now that I'm back, I'm fine, okay? Trust me. It's not like I played a One With Nothing Card and I got mindflavored, okay? If I did that, then you'd have to send me on back there."
I mean I know tha One With Nothing card but what is mindflavored and why would you use this in a sentence like this?
I suspect that this is a mixed reference to One With Nothing (losing your hand flavorfully representing losing your mind) from MTG and Mindflayers from DND who are famous for slurping the brains right out of human skulls.
Two pop culture references to losing your mind/brain mixed into one sentence. Not totally coherent but the overall intent is fairly clear.

I'm familiar with the scene but never paid much attention, Alex was straight up annoying through most of the series.

Mindslaver actually makes a weird kind of sense though, in regards to losing your mind at least.
