Untapped Libraries

Two faces of a card are shown with tracking info for Commander games with Vinny’s face superimposed in a circle.

One of our hosts, @vinnyfrancois.bsky.social , will be at the Toronto Magic Spotlight series on Saturday. If you can find him, he’ll have a promo Untapped Libraries Commander Tracker token to give away. Just ask him for one!

Also: Neale and Vinny talk about building commander decks in all colour combos, being explosive and terrible on Arena, & quasi-Partners.

In this episode we delve into the uncommons-only format, Clover, with its creator, @onionbug.bsky.social ! OnionBug walks us through the format and her General Kreat deck.

That's great to hear and sounds super useful.

Our guest this week is thedeliciousgod.bsky.social ! He's the builder of this week's deck: Uncle Touchy (pattonoswalt.bsky.social reference). It's built to produce the most incredible nightmare game of commander possible (with everyone's consent).

Magic players who use collection tracker apps on your phone:
what app do you use??

Making the world a little bit better at a time. Thanks, @anthony.luckypaper.co

"Oh sweet, Ivy was on a podcast to talk about a deck!"
Now, dear listener, you may feel as though I'd talk about Ayara, or Braids, or Judith, or some other mono black or Rakdos bullshit, right?
NOPE. Turns out it was Ty Lee's janky bullshit that caught some attention 😅😭😂

This was fun, though!

This week's episode features @ladyfoxglove.bsky.social , Magic Ambassador and Rakdos superfan. Ivy's deck stars one of the most recent Voltron commanders:  Ty Lee, Artful Acrobat. We also talk about bulk rares, giving yourself a challenge, and rubber-ducking.

hey creators! 💖 with holiday shopping upon us, can we get a thread going of everyone's referral links / codes at places around the net? I think it'd be a neat way to shop within our own community and offer some nice bonuses for everyone :3c (artists feel free to drop your own storefronts too! ✨)

ToggSi by Rachel Kendra, showing the two Magic the Gathering card, "Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith" and "Silas Renn, Seeker Adept" on the Untapped Libraries podcast

Get ready to rock!

@rachelkendra.com 's Toggo and Silas Renn commander deck generates a lot of artifacts to make a Grixis landfall-affinity deck. We also talk Norwegian sauna, naughty rabbits, and deckbuilding as storytelling.

At first glance, this episode's deck with 99 lands + Lumra as the commander seems like a joke but as we explored the nooks & crannies with our guest, EnkiBye from France, it turned out to be a BEAR of a deck. Download & subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

This guest is one we had in mind as the platonic ideal for this series: DJ and his “Dear Gonti, Love Sophie” deck. Yep, the one made famous by the Rhystic Studies video. We talk about punk aesthetics, rhinestones, and tracking coin flips.

For episode TEN (the big one-oh!) we have Magic content creator, @mikecarrozza.bsky.social . Mike explains why he keeps sending his creatures to the ‘yard. We also talk Commander Sealed weekend, garbage plates, and asking your parents to buy you a booster.

this is what i look like irl btw if u care

Had a great time talking about Cube on Untapped Libraries. I feel like I can get in the weeds with fellow cube heads sometimes and it was refreshing to step back and talk about my favorite way to play Magic in a broader way.

@untappedlibraries.bsky.social

A perfect intro to cube conversation!

This week's guest is Lucky Paper's Anthony Mattox! He walks us through Magic Cubes: what they are, why they're fun & his very own creation, The Regular Cube. We also talk food metaphors, sorting our collections & why you should never play "Tag" optimally.

I turned 50 this weekend and got these two gorgeous cards, altered by none other than the magical @ajimagic.bsky.social himself.

Windmill slamming them into their awaited spots in my cEDH deck.

Yeah. We waited until Trevor had another donation matching event, so our impact was over 100k. mailchi.mp/6d076212527a...

Trying out some ideas for a new deck. I really want to give it a Rakdos aesthetic. I'm thinking unsleeved AND fully altered. Gonna do some more experiments.

Was great to meet you too! Thanks for the games. Hope to be back again next year.

An extra little touch from this week's episode with @gwenthedragon.bsky.social is their awesome sleeves which were custom printed just for the deck. That's a next-level layer of bling.
