Episode 22: Deckbuilding 101
Tuesday Mar 15, 2022
Tuesday Mar 15, 2022
Welcome to Deckbuilding 101. On this week's episode, Rob Smith joins us again as we talk about basic deckbuilding principles that can help newcomers be better equipped when it comes to constructing decks for competitive play. We start from the ground up and talk about how we approach crafting a deck and where we start the process. We provide context for all the key terms and use some of our own deck examples to show how you can approach the deckbuilding thought process to ensure your deck is prepared to face the competition in a competitive space. I was inspired to put this together due to the number of newer players that we have within our community and wanted to provide a basic foundation for them to have a better idea of how to approach this vital part of the game.

On this week's episode, we revisit our conversation regarding playgroup development with Chris Fachman. After the recording of our first conversation on the topic, Chris received some inquiries and wanted to follow up and offer a few more ideas and suggestions that he gathered from talking with other successful playgroup leaders. The ideas and tips Chris got from his conversations with other leaders are solid ways to increase potential in the early stages of starting a playgroup but also give some ideas on developing your playgroup once you have some interested players.
