    Commander ad Populum, Ep 288 - Balancing Deck Building & Deck Tweaking
    May 8 2024
    This week's community topic is one that I don't think anyone thinks about but take some part in, every time they sit down with Magic on the mind. Do you build more decks? Or do you tweak and tune more decks? Which is more important? Come hear my thoughts on the whole matter.
