The new channel is in full swing and I am already looking into content outside of community decks. Mostly focused on Rulings and Tutorials. Is there anything about #Lorcana that you find a struggle?

Fully reworked all 3 of my #Lorcana decks. Now, hopefully, better than ever! We now have: 🟡🔴Power Choir - Powerline and powerful characters. 🟣🟢Max Toolbox - A deck with a lot if tools for a lot of situations. 🔵⚪️Scar's Allies - Nice, simple and super fun!

Think a rework of the #Lorcana decks are in order. With how the Meta is shifting, mine are either too slow or too inconsistent. I'm gunna need some serious consistency. Anyone got any lists working for the right now?

Dom 'TheXploder' Coles @thexploder.bsky.social · 12/09/2025

Alrighty, 2 new #Lorcana decks built and ready to test. First: 🔴⚪️Powerline. A strong combo that I think would do pretty well against all sorts of match ups. 2nd: 🟣🟢Goof Control. A crazy idea involving Max Goof, Maleficent and consistently controlling with Bounce effects. Time to test!

Good News Update! First off, we may have a backup Locals for #Lorcana! It's early days but if it all works out we will be okay. I also got almost all my Fabled Needs last night thanks to the peeps at Locals. Meaning I can work on my latest deck experiments! LET'S FREAKING GO!

Made a deck ready for #Lorcana Locals and with no new stuff from Fabled, I dont expect to do too well. But, I do have a plan to shake up my match ups and put my best foot forward. Let's go!

Dom 'TheXploder' Coles @thexploder.bsky.social · 10/09/2025

So after the news of my Locals shutting down in Kctober, what does this mean for me and #Lorcana content moving forward. For now, I am keeping to the plan and want to keep making content on the game I enjoy. I wont be able to play as much, but Ill see what I can do.

Dom 'TheXploder' Coles @thexploder.bsky.social · 09/09/2025

I will learn more wheb I can but I had some devastating news thrown onto my lap. My locals will be closing down in October. This means I will have no Locals to really go to for #Lorcana moving forward. Don't know how I feel about this right now, but it hits....

Might have just covered the maddest ruling in #Lorcana that I have ever heard or seen! Need to double check if my theory on how it works is accurate. There is no way it could work!
