I make The Faerie Conclave, a Magic: the Gathering podcast where I interview guests about their favorite decks. Deck building is a fascinating form of self-expression, so let's talk about it! 🏳️‍🌈 Check it out here: linktr.ee/TheFaerieConclave

My name is Alec and i make a podcast called The Faerie Conclave where i interview a guest about their favorite deck ✨

I prioritize making sure my guest feels comfy and has a good time.

I put effort into highlighting LGBTQIA+ guests, their voices are extremely important to me.

Have you ever tried playing a theft deck??

This is a clip from episode 127 of The Faerie Conclave podcast! I interviewed @amytheamazonian.bsky.social all about her Nicol-Bolas brawl deck! Amy calls this deck "Petty Theft" because the goal is to steal as many of their opponent's cards as possible!

That's why i preordered the Strixhaven book and why Reality Shift is the one I can't wait to learn about!

Alec from The Faerie Conclave @thefaerieconclave.bsky.social · 3d

I realized why Universes Beyond doesn't do anything for me and it's the fact that no new stories get told.

It's fun seeing Zuko on a magic card, but i have already seen his (incredible) story 10 times. Meanwhile i am HYPED for Lorwyn because i have no idea how the story will play out.

Side note, Conspiracy: Take the Crown is one of the greatest sets of all time and I want a new one!

Zimone and Dina Eldrazi Emerge. The first test into building a deck with all of the Emerge Eldrazi. It didn't work, but i am still tinkering with this idea!
