Last year the LCP church did some wild things as a group and individuals, so what could this year of Magic bring with some intention. After a year of taking apart entire rosters of decks and trying to figure out our group's relationship with the bracket system, Andy and Kyle are thinking about what they want to get out of their experience with this hobby that brings us all together this year. From maintaining a roster, to finding the sweet spot of deck construction, the group interaction, and more, let's talk about what's on our minds going into 2026.

Building a roster that is personally expressive, plays well with your friends, and is fun to play is a tricky and ongoing task for all commander players. Kyle sets up a premise for checking how far his roster might skew towards personal preferences and whether he's straying too far from the crowd to have a balanced roster experience. He and Andy then take a look to see if there are any themes in juxtaposition with the EDHREC data. Look for links to deck lists on our lists-from-the-pod channel on Discord.

Concepts are one thing, but what about some cards. If you listened to the recent Anatomy of a Killer episode, you've probably been mulling over Andy's sub-archetypes for Voltron commander decks. With the concepts in hand, let's start thinking about the concrete cards that cover all bases. While the obvious cards may be out there, can we find some nuance in balancing on the line between being a killer and being killed in the game of EDH?
