I know it's an unpopular opinion given current circumstances, but I've always been a huge nerd about Russia. The history, the geography, the music, etc. And as an American, I've always found it fascinating how U.S.-Russian relations have fluctuated over time. We've gone from allies, to enemies, to frenemies. This doesn't mean I support Z or Putin, of course. What are you a nerd about?

I'm a bit of a nerd about longboarding and also building Commander decks in Magic the Gathering.

I wouldn't say I'm an expert in either case, but I'm really interested in trying different setups and also seeing people discuss their own experiences and builds.

EDH for MTG ey? I just got my izzet deck soft banned from my friend group. I sport Vadrik as my commander, and, well, izzet do what izzet do best lmao

Though fun fact, I have 7 decks and only 1 Sol ring haha

I've got an Izzet deck too! It's a pirate deck.

What an awesome looking deck, it seems infuriating to play against, so naturally, I love it!

I'm going to have to look for some of those cards at my local store, they seem amazing!

Unfortunately I have not uploaded my deck so I have no link to offer. I can see about doing that though

If you decide to share decklists, you might also take a look at the Manabox app. One of my playmates introduced me to it recently, and it seems to have some neat features. I've just been using Tappedout.net for so long out of habit.
