Get Commanded!

Upgrading precons! Everyone and their dog has told you how to upgrade the 'Buckle Up' precon, but has anyone ever taken the time to tell you how to plan your own upgrade? No! (probably). In this episode, Walt and James give you all the tools you need to cut cards, and add new ones, with a little sprinkle of spice! The only tool that wasn't covered was the hoe, for obvious reasons. It's time to Get Commanded!

This podcast is recorded on Wurundjeri Country. This land was stolen, and sovereignty was never ceded. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.

You've got too many cards, and you need to know how to organise them! In this episode, we give you a bunch of methods for categorising your cards so that you can find them easily. Then, Walt gets on the soapbox and tells you to throw some of those cards away! The soapbox is slippery, but Walt has course feet and he's used to it, so there's no need to worry.

There are so many ways to remove problems in Commander games, so we thought we'd take some time to tell you about some of our favourite options, and let you know how we go about picking cards for our decks! Thankfully, nobody in this episode removed their brain or organs. It's time to Get Commanded!

We know you love your good cards, and we love them too, but maybe playing some bad cards will make you a better player?! This week we explore some of the things you can learn by playing less efficient versions of cards, like how to sequence plays correctly, how many lands to play, and who the bestest boi in the multiverse is (it's obviously Mowu)! It's time to Get Commanded!

Lands! We all love them, but some of us want to live in them, you know?! This episode, we cover everything you'll ever need to know to build yourself a lands/landfall deck, from ramp and card draw, to removal and even some combos for very special little children. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, there was no time to land a kickflip. It's time to Get Commanded!

Burnout! Ever feel like there are just too many cards, sets, decks, and new commanders to keep up with? We had a chat to an old friend who left MTG behind last year to work out where it all went wrong, so that we can avoid this terrible fate, and tell you how! Unfortunately, there was no time to burn an MTG card in a furnace and see what it smells like. It's time to Get Commanded!

Philosophy versus Colour; the new James Cameron movie that nobody likes. In this episode we ask the big questions like; why do we have five colours in Magic the Gathering?
