The Uninkable Dads Podcast

Cracked your packs and wondering what to build? We’ve put together seven Day One decks packed with new Set 14 cards, so you know exactly what to sleeve up first for locals.

We run through Ruby/Amethyst and Amethyst/Steel Gargoyles, Amber/Emerald, Amethyst/Ruby, Amber/Steel Songs, Amber/Sapphire Princesses and Emerald/Steel, picking out the key new cards like Wasabi, Shere Khan, Demona, Pepita, Mickey Mouse and Walter & Jesse. We also debate whether the new Mickey earns a place in aggro, and why Clawhauser changes everything.

Plus a look at the new Vault X top loader binder, our chase cards for launch weekend, and a shout-out to Colour is Lore’s 1,000 follower giveaway on Twitch.

All seven deck lists are on uninkabledads.com. Build them, test them, and let us know what you’d change, or send us your own version using the new Send Your Deck to the Dads feature.
