{"ops":[{"insert":"I've been playing Magic since Weatherlight. I began like most, as a kitchen table Magic player that evolved into prerelease sealed and drafts. I then discovered Standard and Modern competitive play. I continued my off and on addiction after college. Like most, I got tired of the chase and wanted the feeling of playing kitchen table Magic again. \n\nThen I found my new addiction, Commander and the love for brewing decks. Shortly after I started a chess and game club at my local school which I have sponsored for the last 10 years, which is open to 6th-9th graders. \n\nOne of the games we play of course is Magic the Gathering. Many of the Magic players at our local LGS were former gamers and students that frequented the club. \n\nSince many new gamers don't have decks I provide several precons and budget decks I've built and donated to the club. As I result I'm always brewing. I have over 50 personal decks currently. This does not include the 24 budget decks I've built and donated to the club. All the decks posted are decks I personally own or built for the club. The card versions in my posts are the actual versions of the decks I own. \n"}]}
