I'm Chris, and I probably built that cool deck you saw.

went to a few LGSs and they said just a handful of people bought out their whole stock - the prices I'm seeing in local resale groups is ridiculous.

ya I'd really love to try the game out but it looks like it won't happen any time soon
November 25, 2025 at 3:55 PM
Wow, it's impossible to get any Riftbound stuff up here

It is my go-to in-flight movie

If you want my take on Aang at the Crossroads and Gyruda alongside how similar/different the two are, check out today's video:

The data might not be perfect but DAMN is there a lot of it

(yes I know combining 4+5 isn't perfect, yes I know 2 isn't the 'precon level' anymore, yes I know I have an audience bias, etc)

We love our Fire Lord’s up here in Canada (probably due to all the snow). You can see how they match up against each other in today’s game:

Fire Lord Azula VS Toph, the First Metalbender VS Fire Lord Zuko VS Fire Lord Ozai CMDR Gameplay

What are we calling this archetype? Clonestorm? Clonechain? Commanderchurn?
November 22, 2025 at 9:32 PM
Congrats!
November 23, 2025 at 12:32 AM
yup stay tuned for Monday
November 22, 2025 at 11:11 PM
The two aren’t played together. Their decks are built similarly, in that they both flip into clones to chain their ETBs over and over
November 22, 2025 at 10:36 PM
Just as many, or more, actually. Aang can use off mv clones and blink creatures to rebuy ETBs
November 22, 2025 at 10:02 PM
Not together, but both decks do the same thing

Should I be finishing Novembrew content? Yes.
Will I instead get a platinum ranked win in The Bazaar? Yes.

And lastly today's deck has a MYSTERY THEME - give it a once-over and see if you can guess what it is...

Combustion Man was an all-star during pre-release and I really wondered how far I could push a brew all about attacking with him, pumped. How much damage are opponents willing to take??

I also couldn't let a Novembrew go by without updating one of my personal decks and this year's it's me all-1/3-creatures-and-wild-pair deck. This thing still slaps and has only improved!

And I had to go in-depth in this brew in a full video, but Iroh Grand Lotus storm IS A THING, and I bet it could be a competitive thing at that...
