Episodes

CotA: O’Doule of Moontopia 12.06.2021

Well, this is sort of a classic CotA situation, with pretty decent cards that add speed and some control, but no really unified story about what we're trying to do. Rocket Boots Zyzzix into a silly Untamed turn is probably the coolest combo we could cook up. :) Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/046f651c-fc2c-4098-925b-5bc0be5787f5

Terrible Edwyn 11.06.2021

5 Raptors! But these things seem hard to get good use out of. The real crazy combo here seems to be 2x Waste Not with 2x Undagnathus, but after you draw most of your deck, you still need a win condition! Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/324bf8d5-c32b-4837-8595-077e429d2ffd

Aurgiant, Mirage Time‑stopper 09.06.2021

Triple Edai is always fun! This deck can use it to set up great Shadows turns, while Sanctum keeps board ownership up. Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/279a1586-98f7-41ff-91dd-3674e2883a64

Shadows in Dark Tidings! 28.05.2021

1starpeeps and I discuss all the Shadows cards in Dark Tidings! Read along at https://bit.ly/dtshadows.

Hippoclaw Fairtrade, the Irrational 22.05.2021

Clever girl! It'll be interesting to see how these new dinos pan out. https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/c7c900a7-e42b-48a9-8a1f-e8080d9e52c8

The Void that Primally Spoils Defense 22.05.2021

I think some of the features in these DT decks are pretty underrated. For example, Kerwollop can be underwhelming, but paired with Urchins or a Simpson, it can be amazing! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/459e29ee-30e3-4aa1-aba8-de196b3dd5c2

Bennedict who Preserves Defense 21.05.2021

It's nice to see some control as well as speed in both Logos and Sanctum, and Saurian doing some fun stuff too! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/7a070e62-d994-4434-92c9-cb527f62e3f5

Dark Tidings Rules Update Overview 19.05.2021

This is an overview of the new rules update available at https://images-cdn.fantasyflightgames.com/filer_public/0f/97/0f97ae74-4b50-4391-a4ef-0eebe49d409f/keyforge_rulebook_v15_compressed.pdf .

Stay Chillaxed! 14.05.2021

I'm over here KILLING IT on deck names. I really like this new Untamed setup - looking forward to my giant Edai! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/b2aeef99-9349-4a95-8c2e-1fd1872f445f

Dread Pirate! 11.05.2021

What a name! And it has some shiny combos, too. I have not yet gotten the Tomwa ultra draw to trigger, but I have forged a couple of free keys. A very fun deck! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/93fbfd9c-74f4-4952-8ae9-3e8c092db314

Whoa, two 4x cards! 08.05.2021

The Raptors combo better than the Principles. This deck does a LOT to disrupt the opponent's game plan. The question is whether it does enough to advance its own. https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/6d3d0cfb-a483-4b4f-94a6-61a10aa049a4

My Fourth is the Fifth 05.05.2021

This is a pretty interesting pair of keycheats. Fight me! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/99af19b7-4a37-4392-a72f-5553c7925201

If you have a Yelofoot, you might want to see a doctor. 02.05.2021

This deck is very decadent, and might cause some problems. https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/dbcc6b46-c6bc-4536-bbd0-5f4d7628c6a1

Madame "Switchblade" Jacobs 30.04.2021

Some great oldies and exciting new cards come together! https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/bf61e7e2-fee8-41bd-b820-d3f3f5d1c56b

My First Dark Tidings Deck! 26.04.2021

Not bad when your very first Dark Tidings card is a Maverick - but is it a good one? You can see the list for yourself at https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/ff403818-59a0-4895-b941-9f75e35f03a0

Sanctum in Mass Mutation! 05.03.2021

Zach from Call of Discovery joins me to discuss the Sanctum cards in Mass Mutation. There's so much good stuff in the house, it needs the right support! http://bit.ly/mmsanctum

Is KeyForge Dying? (lol, no) 03.03.2021

Hiccups in logistics and communication often lead to people wondering if this is The End. And, FFG has a history of disappointing game close-outs, so they're not totally off-base. In this video, I'll go over some of the reasons games have died, and talk about the risk of those various scenarios to KeyForge. And, since I forgot to say this in the video, I think people asking about KeyForge dying fa...

Saurian in Mass Mutation 25.02.2021

Julian (siaka) and I discuss all the Saurian cards in Mass Mutation, with some great insights into how the house works differently compared to the last set. You can find the card list for yourself at http://bit.ly/mmsaurian

Dark Tidings Spoilers Catch-Up! 11.02.2021

In this video I do a quick run-through of all the Dark Tidings cards we know to date. It's surprisingly few, but it gives us some insight into how the houses will change, how Unfathomable will work, how we'll be interacting with the Tide, and how the Evil Twin cards are designed. You can find spoilers on ArchonArchana at https://archonarcana.com/Spoilers

Logos in Mass Mutation! 07.02.2021

Peter and I walk through all the Logos cards in Mass Mutation! Read along at http://bit.ly/mm_logos. You can catch more of Peter's content at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbyiEzNAxo1NKZiFndBrl9A.

Star Alliance in Mass Mutation 04.02.2021

I walk through all the Star Alliance cards in Mass Mutation! Read along at http://bit.ly/mmstaralliance

The Madame of Clouddome 31.12.2020

Can we let an aoa deck be the last video of the year? At least this one has two key cheats, but I'll have to figure something out... Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/b7ea17c2-07de-41ef-b0de-c0f2e7e60486

Ipsitage, Spawn of Aeropower 30.12.2020

Double Font can lead to very fun aember control games, and Orb of Wonder gives you the right tool at the right time. But can it slow an opponent down *enough*? Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/0effe9ab-0fe7-41ed-b0b3-297e28dab246

Renegade Force 29.12.2020

Sometimes a name is just too good! This one has nice tools - board wipes, artifact purge, and some wombo combo. Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/32982ac0-9636-4329-b4fc-c1ddee3d3d36

Pirowska W. Leafa, the Fifth 28.12.2020

Sins + Z-Force makes for a whole grip of special rarity cards in this deck. Decklist: https://www.keyforgegame.com/deck-details/637b8976-1106-40ea-8cf4-89a7d524352a
