Personal update in the side.

We have around 70 ready-to-play decks by now. (pictured 68 deckboxes)

Starting to run into some storage issues with them plus the accumulated bulk. XD

So my dad is making a deck, as is his destiny as a dad.

He realized today that he neglected to buy spacers for placing the boards.

It's an hour each way to the hardware store.

My mom came up with a solution.

Brilliant, really. Plus it looks goofy as hell so win/win

HELLO ALL

today i will be talking to you about one of my more recent decks that has very quickly become one of my favorites!!

it is...

GANDALF THE WHITE POLYARMORY

now, this deck name might sound confusing. but its really quite simple. this is a mono white grouphug deck with the sole purpose of copying the etb of wedding ring to give one to the whole table and marry every player. the goal of the deck is to put everyone in the game into a polyamorous relationship!!

the rest of the deck is a mixture of typical group hug elements, such as shared card draw (secret rendezvous, howling mine, font of mythos) and general etb abuse (elesh norn mother of machines, panharmonicon) and when you combine these two aspects the deck helps out all players but can also effectively control the board by triple copying a meteor golem or loran of the third path!!

i havent had the chance to play this deck all that often but when i have played it it has some real killing power surprisingly. the main thing i realized playing this deck is that doubling or tripling your etbs gets out of hand fast. like obviously it does, but youll be surprised if you decide to play with it.

this deck is rather weighted on the artifact side. i couldnt find a large amount of legendary creatures that copy with gandalf so artifacts were the obvious choice. most of them draw cards on etb or add mana, while the rest copy etbs and are just general group hug cards. this deck could easily be changed to be much more competitive if you removed some of the group hug elements and added more interaction (most of my decks have an emphasis on fun and therefore the interaction might be lacking in some of them).

there are a few cards in this deck id like to talk about as overperformers. this deck does some silly things and these cards felt especially strong from my games with the deck-

eriette's charmed apple: this card when doubled with a panharmonicon type effect (aka your commander 👀) is disgusting. nobody expects the mono white deck to untap and steal their creatures for a turn, which results in turns where you steal the biggest creatures on board and swing for lethal on someone. i nearly killed my girlfriend this way out of nowhere in her life gain deck and it doesn't seem far fetched to do that most games. there is also some graveyard artifact recursion in this deck which allows you to loop this which, in the late game, really adds up.

master of ceremonies: this one is probably obvious to anyone who has played the card before, but this was my first time. if you stick this and no one kills it (which they aren't initially inclined to do) it just spits out so much value. you get three things every one of your upkeeps, whether that be three treasures (broken), three cards (broken) or three creature tokens (yay blockers!!) or some combination of the three. this adds up so fast and gives you a huge advantage for the small price of helping your opponents a bit.

tenuous truce: this card single handedly kept me in the gane by enchanting the player with the biggest board. its crazy what people will do when they get an extra card every turn. obviously gets worse the more people know about your deck cause one card a turn wont stop your average player from swinging at who they deem a threat, but still. its still really good and much better then it seems!!

as for how to play the the deck, its mostly stay alive till its you and one other player. you can do this by killing key targets with your etbs (this deck deals with artifacts and enchantments especially well) or getting people to believe you are not a threat cause you are feeding their card draw. this deck can very easily be ran over if you don't pull a board wipe for the creature decks or if you lose to something that you couldnt interact with cause you are mono white. thats just kinda the brakes. but this deck has more staying power then i ever gave it credit for when i built it.

in closing, this deck is probably around a 6 or so in power level and i wouldnt play this at a high power table but if you and your friends want to have fun then you should give it a try!! i got to marry most of the table in my first game with the deck and it was so satisfying, plus when everyone has a wedding ring the amount of card draw and life gain going around gets out of hand fast. especially if you have extra card draw effects out everyone can be drawing upwards of two cards every single turn lmao

(also dont tell anyone but this deck has another thing in it thats fun to do with your transfem friends, and that is jinxed choker. this is an artifact that is in the deck purely to joke about how whoever has control of it at any given time is collared up. you can marry and collar your friends with this deck and both will make your gay friends go nuts at the edh table lmao)

In order to learn more about Magic: the Gathering, I’ve decided to build mono coloured decks. I’ve already built a mono white deck and now I wanted to tackle blue. My initial thought was to build around Mill but while I was searching through my spare cards I found a play set of Jace’s Erasure and now I’m thinking of going with Mill with a side of card draw/mill effects.

I’m excited to see how this turns out. I don’t expect it to be a brilliant deck (in the beginning), but more something to build on and learn from.

Also, the art and flavour text on this card are great!

Lorcana Deck Building Rant

So I spent most of last weekend and this morning cataloguing Disney Lorcana cards and for me personally, building a deck with these cards is maddening.

I've played Magic the Gathering before, so I know the goal of deck building is to build using strategies. How you're going to win; a deck that can obliterate your opponents; decks that restore your health, etc. And quite frankly, my way of building Magic decks is to deconstruct a starter and go from there.

For Lorcana, I know it's about getting cards that can hinder your opponents, maybe get you more lore or having cards that allow you to draw more cards and/or take cards out of your discard pile or cards that give you more ink, etc.

But if I want to build a TaleSpin deck, I'm limited to two colors and it's like, most of the cards are Sapphire and Emerald, but there are three that are Amber. So I can't use the Amber cards. In DuckTales, the majority of the cards are Ruby and Sapphire, with the exception of the Gizmo Suit (Grey), Magic and Lena cards (both Amethyst).

Let me build my beloved Disney Afternoon decks using the characters, not the colors!

RGB updates

I ran into a semi-major issue in testing where the tank and mage decks are both stronger than the fighter deck. Bunny’s special ability just doesn’t work the way I intended it to, so I need to rework it.

Kalani (mage deck) the other hand works *too* well and creates an infinite loop that I need to patch out.

I guess this is why we test! Going to do some edits and print a new copy✨

Standard, and Magic in general, needs more BG Humans. They say they make more human creatures because that's more relatable but Black-Green is filled with non-humans. Especially when compared to, say, Green-White. Can you tell I'm an Abzan player? If I want to play Abzan humans, it's not going to be an even division. In fact, it usually becomes Abzan Humans and strange creatures. Just saying, it wouldn't hurt to design some Golgari Humans.

I played the DC deckbuilding game for the first time last night and it was a ton of fun but while the guy I was playing with was explaining the game I was like "oh it's like dominion!" and he said "yeah, I haven't played that but it's probably a rip-off of this game" and folks let me tell you in the 22 hours since that interaction I have not recovered
