Untapped Libraries

i can't unsee it.

Joining us at Untapped Libraries is @aibretty.bsky.social who designed a cube based on a prompt for Cube For A Cause, an NYC MTG charity event. The prompt? Déja Vu. We dig into what that might mean and inspire for a Cube as well as what it might mean and inspire for a Cube. untappedlibraries.com

Had so much fun hopping on here and talking about one of my most beloved decks. Also as a small spoiler for the episode… I did it! Current cut for it is deadly dispute, but idk if that will be the final choice haha. Also looking for my Stinkweed Imp to throw in there.

Our Untapped Gems from last week's episode with @thebloodricguy.bsky.social. @vinnyfrancois.bsky.social chooses a modal removal spell stapled to a raise dead, while @ajimagic.bsky.social pics a weird mana rock for an artifact deck which can't be used to cast artifacts.

Cole @thebloodricguy.bsky.social joins us on Untapped Libraries with his Odric, Blood-Cursed, a blinking, graveyard, and artifact machine. Vinny and Neale talk about the charity Secret Lairs, slam dunking cards, and being on the same wavelength. untappedlibraries.com/episode-028-...

It's a brand new episode of Untapped Libraries! This week's guest is @indominus-lux.bsky.social with their chomp-tastic keyword commander, Indominus Rex! Neale & Vinny talk about slathering ourselves in Magic, difficulty with simple math, & altering cards. untappedlibraries.com/episode-027-...

Here are our Untapped Gems from last week's wonderful episode with Modular Cocoon! Vinny: Corpse Explosion scryfall.com/card/snc/179... Neale: Mischievous Mystic scryfall.com/card/fdn/47/...

Untapped Libraries is going sideways. Because this week’s guest, Modular Cocoon, has brought an all-horizontal Commander deck for us. Vinny & Neale talk about a new Magic format based on Rainbow Vale, feeling checked out from Magic, and exploding corpses. untappedlibraries.com/episode-026-...

Our Untapped Gems(tm) from our latest episode. @vinnyfrancois.bsky.social chose a blue enchantment board wipe, @ajimagic.bsky.social chose a card-drawing tree folk whose name sounds like a pop singer.

Our podcast hits the big 2-5! That's 25 episodes! Thanks to all our guests and listeners. It's fitting now that we're "old" to bring in our pal Pete to talk Old School Magic: formats that only use cards from '93-'94. Listen & subscribe wherever you get your podcasts: untappedlibraries.com/025-2/

Our Untapped Gems from last week's show with @fkth.bsky.social

Our latest episode features Fiona (@fkth.bsky.social) and her Doctor Who commander deck. We talk about what it’s like to enter the world of Magic: the Gathering with its 30+ years of history and learning to connect with the game. Also: beluga whales. untappedlibraries.com/episode-024-...

Even if you were unable to get the deck, it was not the artist's fault. Buying/selling fake copyrighted goods is illegal. People are ripping off WoB's whole shop, which directly steals profit from the artist. Please support @wizardofbarge.bsky.social and call out shops profiting from their work!

New Episode Alert! Our guest @themaverickgirl.bsky.social takes us into the world of Pauper with Elves! Vinny and Neale talk about their Secrets of Strixhaven prerelease, argue about saying Yes in improv, and introduce a new segment: "Untapped Gems"! LINK: untappedlibraries.com/episode-022-...

This week's guest is @manadad.bsky.social and his Only Bad Cards cube. This is all about drafting and playing with some of the absolute worst cards ever created. What is in the cube? How does it play? Why would you do this to yourself?? untappedlibraries.com/episode-018-...

You can always make your own proxies.

Happy Valentine's Day, friends! We love you! 💓

Here are some of the proxies I mentioned in the podcast. Also pictured are the cards I picked out that represent Skittles.

Our guest this week is thedeliciousgod.bsky.social ! He's the builder of this week's deck: Uncle Touchy (pattonoswalt.bsky.social reference). It's built to produce the most incredible nightmare game of commander possible (with everyone's consent). untappedlibraries.com/episode-015-...

Magic players who use collection tracker apps on your phone: what app do you use??

Making the world a little bit better at a time. Thanks, @anthony.luckypaper.co
