5 JUN 2024 · This week, I begin the process of going through every one of my Commander decks to cut one card in favor of an additional removal spell. In doing so, I'm hoping to keep my decks on the same level as other decks in my meta, post Modern Horizons 3. This was a fun, interesting and challenging experiment. And, one I would recommend, if you feel your decks are a little antiquated, compared to your meta.  Support on Patreon, here: https://www.Patreon.com/CadPopCast.
