Talkin' Tolkein! Jump-starting Hobbit Precon Design (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Host Juliet and Guest Leo have a grand discussion of the cards from the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit sets, what new players can learn just from a pack of cards, how to design a Jumpstart set that's accessible, whether Blue is the hardest color, how you name a horse's color, and how you name a horse.

Aug-erload Challenge Review, part 2 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Our challenge review block comes to a close with some wild text-changing effects! Ogre-load, Servos, Carbo-load, and maybe the hardest to track card we've ever reviewed (in a fun way)! Join Beacon of Creation's Discord: https://discord.gg/t88Vpwh Show Notes and Images: https://beaconofcreation.com
Aug-erload Challenge Review, part 1 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Summer challenge time continues! We've got a whole new set of challenges and cards to review. Text changing effects can be quite tricky and unusual, so it takes a lot of unpacking to get to the root of each of them. Stay tuned for some cool Planechase draft technology!

Incarnation Challenge Review, part 3 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Incarnations embody the feeling of an "exciting cycle". Our community members sent in their exciting cards that also have the potential for 4 more cards in other colors. Tune in for our first "reverse challenge" where our member Xena challenges Juliet! Join Beacon of Creation's Discord: https://discord.gg/t88Vpwh Show Notes and Images: https://beaconofcreation.com
