I’m so excited! And isn’t it funny what can surprise us?

For me, the loss of AskHistorians was/is/will be the worst. There’s so just much important knowledge there, they’ve changed how I see the world (and I assume that’s true for others as well). I really hope they figure out a way to save some of that, but it won’t be surprising if it just fades away… Just heart breaking.

I hope we can rebuild some things here, but AskHistorians definitely felt special.

Agreed, themes of all kinds can be fun! I think most of my decks have a theme, although sometimes I sacrifice the theme for a little performance.

I think maybe my three favorites: Unionize - colorless, Assembly Worker tribal (took me a while to get that to work right! In particular Foundry Inspector + Self Assembler is fun) Red Wedding - black/red, vampire tribal with Edgar Markov and Olivia Voldaren (with almost all wedding themed cards) Ballroom Blitz - black/red, blitz ability aggro with graveyard return (not the most efficient but pretty fun and efficient!)

Do you like to use Jerren, Corrupted Bishop?

It’s funny how many options you get for human tribal, but I guess that’s part of the point 😅 Do you make exceptions to your themes and include non-humans (like Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider)?

Agreed, themes of all kinds can be fun! And I’m loving everyone’s themes here. Most of my decks have a theme, though sometimes I sacrifice it for a little performance.

My three current favorites:

  • Unionize : colorless, Assembly Worker tribal (took me a while to get that to work right! In particular [[Foundry Inspector]] + [[Self Assembler]] is fun)
  • Red Wedding : black/red, vampire tribal with [[Edgar, Charmed Groom]] and [[Olivia, Crimson Bride]] (with almost all wedding themed cards)
  • Ballroom Blitz : black/red, blitz ability aggro with graveyard return… basically “dancing” the cards between hand, graveyard, and battlefield (not the most efficient but pretty fun and efficient!)

You are reminding me that I used to keep a copy of Nesticle (for DOS!) on an AOL floppy, along with a couple of ROMs. I saved the fancy Imation Disney disks for my data 😅

Thank you for the flashback!
