"Oh sweet, Ivy was on a podcast to talk about a deck!" Now, dear listener, you may feel as though I'd talk about Ayara, or Braids, or Judith, or some other mono black or Rakdos bullshit, right? NOPE. Turns out it was Ty Lee's janky bullshit that caught some attention 😅😭😂 This was fun, though!

This week's episode features @ladyfoxglove.bsky.social , Magic Ambassador and Rakdos superfan. Ivy's deck stars one of the most recent Voltron commanders:  Ty Lee, Artful Acrobat. We also talk about bulk rares, giving yourself a challenge, and rubber-ducking. untappedlibraries.com/episode-014-...

hey creators! 💖 with holiday shopping upon us, can we get a thread going of everyone's referral links / codes at places around the net? I think it'd be a neat way to shop within our own community and offer some nice bonuses for everyone :3c (artists feel free to drop your own storefronts too! ✨)

Get ready to rock! @rachelkendra.com 's Toggo and Silas Renn commander deck generates a lot of artifacts to make a Grixis landfall-affinity deck. We also talk Norwegian sauna, naughty rabbits, and deckbuilding as storytelling. untappedlibraries.com/episode-013-...

At first glance, this episode's deck with 99 lands + Lumra as the commander seems like a joke but as we explored the nooks & crannies with our guest, EnkiBye from France, it turned out to be a BEAR of a deck.

This guest is one we had in mind as the platonic ideal for this series: DJ and his “Dear Gonti, Love Sophie” deck. Yep, the one made famous by the Rhystic Studies video. We talk about punk aesthetics, rhinestones, and tracking coin flips. untappedlibraries.com/episode-11-d... @cardgarden.com

For episode TEN (the big one-oh!) we have Magic content creator, @mikecarrozza.bsky.social . Mike explains why he keeps sending his creatures to the ‘yard. We also talk Commander Sealed weekend, garbage plates, and asking your parents to buy you a booster. untappedlibraries.com/mike-carozza...

this is what i look like irl btw if u care

Had a great time talking about Cube on Untapped Libraries. I feel like I can get in the weeds with fellow cube heads sometimes and it was refreshing to step back and talk about my favorite way to play Magic in a broader way. untappedlibraries.com/episode-009-... @untappedlibraries.bsky.social

A perfect intro to cube conversation!

This week's guest is Lucky Paper's Anthony Mattox! He walks us through Magic Cubes: what they are, why they're fun & his very own creation, The Regular Cube. We also talk food metaphors, sorting our collections & why you should never play "Tag" optimally. untappedlibraries.com/episode-009-...

I turned 50 this weekend and got these two gorgeous cards, altered by none other than the magical @ajimagic.bsky.social himself. Windmill slamming them into their awaited spots in my cEDH deck.

Yeah. We waited until Trevor had another donation matching event, so our impact was over 100k. mailchi.mp/6d076212527a...

Trying out some ideas for a new deck. I really want to give it a Rakdos aesthetic. I'm thinking unsleeved AND fully altered. Gonna do some more experiments.

An extra little touch from this week's episode with @gwenthedragon.bsky.social is their awesome sleeves which were custom printed just for the deck. That's a next-level layer of bling.

Neale and Vinny will be at Commander Sealed this weekend in Rochester, NY to play some games, meet some artists, and make new friends. If you see us, say hello! (And teach us how to pose for photos)

How bad was Homelands? The 4th most played card from the set on EDHREC is a vanilla 1/1 dwarf.

A sampling of altered cards from @hummingbirdalters.bsky.social cEDH deck from this week's epsiode!

Artist Hummingbird joins us on the podcast this week. We attempt the impossible to capture the imagery of his alters in an audio-only format (with images here and on our site). Hummingbird brings his fully altered cEDH deck, The Apparatus, to Untapped Libraries. untappedlibraries.com/episode-007-...

Nick V's setup to bleach most of his deck in the Texas sun.

A couple more photos from Nick V's sun bleach process. First is Zada pre-bleaching, showing how he blocked the sun from some of the card.

A selection of Nick V’s sunbleached cards for his Zada Commander deck from this week's episode. The colours are so surprising!

Episode 6 is up! This week our guest is Nick V. Nick’s Zada Commander deck is completely sun-bleached. Yes, he found a way to leave each card in the sun to bleach the colours creating a very distinct look to them. We discuss buying cards at the flea market, the power of the sun, and fighting birds.

Unironically I recorded this with @untappedlibraries.bsky.social before Chris Cock's statements about women in the space. Community building is important. Women play games too. Thank you Untapped Libraries for letting me speak on this and still putting this episode out.

Episode 5: Beth, Queen of Cardboard. Beth shares her thoughtful and touching commander deck made in honour of her late dog, King, including an altered Yoshimaru, Ever Faithful. We chat about Pac-Man Secret Lair, bestowing titles, and bonus animal guests. untappedlibraries.com

Taking a break from painting my cEDH deck to paint my mono red deck.

Had a blast at the EOE pre-release this weekend. Went 2-1 with this deck. One or two more pieces of removal would have been welcome. All-star: Voidforged Titan. -vinny
