Description
Welcome to Hero's Blade Vibe Check, where we talk about Commander/Elder Dragon Highlander & Magic. We chat about recent & future events, games & deck brews, new cards, articles & gameplay videos, & if your Commander passes the Vibe Check! (also, pop culture media that we've been dabbling in).
We're Cole (he/him, @TheBloodricGuy on Bluesky, editor) & Empress Quinn (fae/faer, @girldickenergy on Bluesky, composer), joining forces to chat about things we love & adore in Magic the Gathering. Let's hang out & enjoy the vibes.
