This week, I aim to answer the questions, when should you take a deck apart? And why should you take a deck apart? At first the answers seemed simple. Then, they seemed difficult to put one's finger on. Then, it turned out to be really simple, after all. Join me to hear my thought process.

This week, I'm joined by MJ from the podcast MtG in Quarantine. We discuss some of the common interests we share, despite never having met in person. Magic and Commander brought us together, but it's everything else we share, as Magic players, that builds the bonds we all have come to develop through the pandemic and quarantine.

Back in my day, when combat damage used the Stack, there were many things I did not know. Over the past twenty years, I've learned much concerning Magic the Gathering. Here's some of the things I wish I had learned way earlier in my Magic, and Commander, career.

This week, it's all about the Premium Deck Series. This premium product from ten years ago was a precursor to many of your MtG life's luxuries. Better precons, Collector packs and all-foil products, like Secret Lairs.

This week, I talk about building an MtG community that recognizes everyone's individual comfort levels with regards to returning back to the NEW normal. Then, we dive deep into Dark Ascension. A set filled with awesome tribal cards, combo powerhouses and a ton of Commander-playable gems! So far, the entire Innistrad Block has been nothing but bangers!
