Episode 80: The Philosophy of EDH with ManaSquad Goblin Lore Podcast

    • Games

Welcome back to the Goblin Lore Podcast and please welcome our guests for today!
We are joined by Ced [https://twitter.com/ced_senpai] and Ken from One More Mana
(aka ManaSquad [https://twitter.com/ManaSquad]). These amazing creators are here
for part 1 of a two part discussion of how they approach EDH/Commander Deck
Building. Part 1 covers their individual philosophies while Part 2 will look how
deck building styles may be influenced by the narratives we all have about
ourselves.
 
Again we would like to state that Black Lives Matter
[https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/] (with a link to where you can offer
support both monetary and not).
