We discuss our “fearless inventory”; our take on our weaknesses as Magic/Commander players, based on Sam Stoddard’s article, “Creating a Fearless Magical Inventory.”

Adam’s full Inventory

Mark’s:

• I tend to run shit out on my first main phase like a derp.
• Try new archetypes.

Jacob’s:

• Quit playing with so many staples (re: “Staple Remover”)
• Drawing more cards, in every color combination.

Strategy:  

How we’re going to enact on our New Year’s resolutions.

Adam:

• Update the “maybe list” for each deck, after each new set is released.
• Spend more time analyzing mulligans.

Jacob:

• Revisit all of my decks, especially blue, to free up space for newer creative ideas.
• Draw more cards in other colors, ala Carrier Pigeons

Mark:

• Sit on my mana.
• Play more paper Magic.
