Shimmering Skies Set Review - Amethyst

50 EPISODES!! WOOHOO!! We're back and continuing with another set review episode... this time covering Amethyst! This color did not have very many vanilla cards for this set, which means we had a lot to talk about today! We hope you all enjoy this episode! 

Shimmering Skies Set Review - Amber

Another set is now released so you know what that means....another set REVIEW! We're kicking things off with Amber for this week so give it a listen and let us know what you think! 

Recapping GenCon & DLC Bologna

Ahh GenCon....the 1 year anniversary since the early release of Lorcana. We go back to where it all began except this time...we don't sleep on the floor in line waiting for product! Instead, we participated in three events and each won a convention exclusive mat and had a lot of fun while we did it too! Join us as we share our insights into how we approached these events differently than we would a constructed event. Also, Dalton recaps the DLC in Bologna from this past weekend and we discuss how the meta in Toronto might look for this upcoming weekend. All that and more, so hit the play button now! 

The End of Set Champs & Set 4 SD Review (Amethyst/Amber)

Join us as we recap our last weekend competing in the Set Champs for Ursula's Return! We also complete our last starter deck review using the Amber/Amethyst Madrigal deck. Did we like playing with this one and why or why not? Also, *spoiler alert* Dalton makes a completely new decklist for how he thinks Amber/Amethyst can be played competitively. Lastly, we give a special shoutout to all of the wonderful CC's who are stepping away from the space. We hope it's not forever, but we are grateful for the content you all have provided to the community.

Ursula's Return Set Review - Steel

Well friends, we finally reached the end of our set review of Ursula's Return. We are finishing this out with our last ink color: Steel. We have a lot to discuss in this one, from the S's all the way down to the D's! We hope you enjoy this episode and hearing how we analyzed these cards.

Ursula's Return Set Review - Sapphire

Join us as we continue our Set 4 review of Ursula's Return, focusing on all of the sapphire (non-vanilla) cards for this episode. There are some cards that we think are definite front runners for this ink, and there are some we suspect might be getting slept on.....so give a listen to find out which ones those all could be!

Ursula's Return Set Review - Ruby

We are now back and picking up where we left off in our Set 4 review of Ursula's Return, continuing with Dalton's favorite ink color....Ruby! There were a pretty good amount of decent cards that came from this color, so give it a listen and see which ones we think are the best!

Chicago DLC Recap!

Hey, hey! We're back! After a crazy few weeks, we have finally recovered from both the Atlanta and Chicago DLCs and are here to continue telling our story from them! In this episode, we recap how the Chicago DLC went for both of us, as well as how it compared to Atlanta. This time, Dana actually got to be on a featured match and opens up about how the experience truly was for her. Dalton also recounts his matches (in far better detail, we might say!) and how diverse his opponents' decks were from round to round. Now that the dust has settled, are we still playing the same decks? Tune in to find out!
