Loosely Lorcana

This week, we're talking about AI-assisted deck building, an Amber/Steel location brew, and the matchups that keep the revisions coming. We also revisit cards that surprised us in testing, including Elisa Maza, Flash, Mickey Mouse, and Wasabi. Some are easier to appreciate when they're on your side of the table.Along the way: our hopes for a Lorcana digital client, prerelease plans, and a few very loose connections between Disney, hockey, John Mayer, and Dungeon Crawler Carl. There's also a date night spent sorting toys. We're really selling the glamorous podcast-host lifestyle.Subscribe for more Lorcana tournament recaps, deck conversations, and the occasional tangent.Instagram: @looselylorcanaWebsite: LooselyLorcana.comEmail: [email protected]

Familiar strategies are picking up new tools, Shere Khan is making ready characters nervous, and songs and Detectives are giving us more reasons to keep testing.We also answer a listener’s question about practicing online, discuss why a good online win rate doesn’t guarantee tournament success, and weigh a very practical question: is a CCQ worth eight hours of driving when you’re going for the experience?What are you brewing for Hyperia City? And which Disney character would you least want to face across the table?Resources:Duels.ink: https://duels.ink/Ink Table: https://www.inktable.net/Dreamborn: https://dreamborn.ink/Instagram: @looselylorcanaEmail: [email protected]
