How do you build a deck to function without your Commander? Let's talk about Resilience and Redundancy with Ayara, Widow of the Realm:

At the same time, it's just the right amount of accessible too. It still is a game of Magic, just one with a little wrinkle thrown in here & there that make you think about something a bit different. actually, you both don't need your own deck or graveyard.

Oh yeah, for sure! It really doesn't click with some people, some people think it's extremely stupid, etc. The range of responses I've gotten about it over time are wild.

i also love how many people hate this format. we need more incongruent jagged shit that irritates. wool sweaters and bitter beer. a boot that blisters. writing in red ink.

Cal @caljones.com · 11h

i think the most important impact DanDan will have in the long term is bringing a format to the cultural limelight that is just a bit *weird* and showing people that they can do weird stuff with Magic cards that isn't making a new Commander-like.

Current outgoing hat shipments are slightly delayed - as the shipping box restock I ordered was the wrong size. Comically too small. Oops. Waiting for more of those to come in & then we're off to the races!
