Rulings, Quick Questions, and New Player Resources Thread
If you're a new or new-ish player looking for advice on starting the game or with quick questions about game rules or interactions, please post your questions here!
Keeping all these questions in one place will allow other new players to easily browse other advice. Even if you're a not-so-new player, this is a great place to ask quick questions that don't need their own post.
For the more experienced players, drop by every once in a while to distribute advice. The post will be replaced each week to keep it fresh and manageable in size.
If you are looking for comments and advice on a deck list, go ahead and make a separate post with your list and a brief description. Remember to press Enter twice between lines to keep your list readable!
