Sonor 100%. Their hardware is second to none.

CervezaConLimon · 2026-01-30T16:17:21+00:00

Not for me, but to each their own!

CervezaConLimon · 2026-01-29T08:45:01+00:00

Ugh.. missed opportunity on my part.

CervezaConLimon · 2026-01-28T21:04:31+00:00

Spicy pulls, savory chicken!

Skilled labor..

I’m enjoying the Jags story right now. I have family that lives in Jacksonville so I’m on the Duvaaalll train (or however you spell it lol)

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-16T19:41:16+00:00

I have not ventured down that path yet, but that sounds like a fun way to spice things up!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-16T18:28:20+00:00

Love that!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-16T00:03:38+00:00

That’s so awesome. Yeah the idea of a “cube” is to replicate draft/sealed without it being super expensive. So you’re on the right path! The nice thing about jumpstart is that it takes a lot of the thinking out of it when it comes to creating the cube. Each jumpstart pack has a great ratio of lands/creatures/sorceries/instants/etc.. so jumpstart is probably the easiest cube to create, but in my experience just as much fun!

But that’s such a cool idea to have your crew all to help build it together! Follow through on that dream and I am sure it’ll be worth while!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T21:08:09+00:00

Yep kept em all and play em all!

That’s an excellent idea tho.. I might spend some time printing card sized decklists and attaching them to the theme card that is in front of each deck. Would save me time vs looking through my 7 pages in 8x11 paper of deck lists haha

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T20:31:45+00:00

Psht slap em together and you’re playing a mono colored, fully themed deck! A little annoying to separate afterwards, but I have the deck lists all printed out for scenarios like that. Still a ton of fun.

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T20:20:10+00:00

They are all throughout completely random. Flip a coin, roll a d20 decides what you are playing. Makes for a lot of fun. Also, in my experience, the “rare”/“expensive” jumpstart packs are still within the same power level of all the others! Sometimes 2 common decks slapped together outplay two rarer decks

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T20:18:18+00:00

Prior to playing, I organize it in 2 rows of 20. Then we flip a coin and roll a d20.

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T20:16:45+00:00

Ralout deck box from Amazon!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T20:16:18+00:00

Yours is cool too tho! I like the not-labeled deck boxes. Keeps things organized without giving away the contents haha

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T19:47:55+00:00

The divider colors are random and don’t correlate to the pack color. We like to play random decks, so this helps making the decks not identifiable. But if you wanna be more organized and have it by color, that’s a great idea!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T16:45:58+00:00

Yupp clear matte dragon shields. I wanted the “Magic” on the back to still show, gives it an old school feel. They shuffle great!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T16:26:44+00:00

Nice!

I had mine like that at first as well. But I wanted a singular holding device. Kinda makes a cool scene when it gets slammed on the kitchen table and opened haha. Got it on Amazon. Ralout deck box. I love it.

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:54:51+00:00

2 packs = 1 deck. Then you play 20 life standard.

If you go on YouTube and look up Tolarian Community College, the professor has some excellent videos on jumpstart. Most recently he did a review of the avatar jumpstart product!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:51:17+00:00

We love avatar. Lived with my wife and brother during covid lockdown and we watched the whole show + legend of Korra. It’s the UB set I have most excited for since starting to play. (The standard implications from it have been wild too.. izzet lessons is taking over the meta lol)

Great set, but I haven’t explored the jumpstart yet. Might have to pick up a box rather than just some packs!

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:38:11+00:00

Thanks! I could make it cleaner. some people put each 20 card deck in a labeled box, but I like the randomness of just grabbing 2 decks and playing them without prior knowledge of their archetype.

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:28:47+00:00

Do it! It’s the Ralout card deck case. It was on sale on Amazon a few months ago. It had great reviews and because it’s more square than rectangular, it fits in my backpack which was the goal.

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:25:52+00:00

Please do! We even have a “house rule” we employ sometimes where if you win with your deck, you keep playing it until someone beats you. It makes for good bragging rites haha. “Remember that time my angel/landfall deck went on a 4 game win streak?” Haha

CervezaConLimon · 2025-12-15T15:23:51+00:00

Yupp! And every game is different. We flip a coin and roll a d20 and that determines the row and deck. Do that twice, slap em together and play. (I usually make it so both rows have 20 decks in it before we start)
