Reading articles about multiplayer or other sorts of casual play is a favourite pastime of mine. I always enjoy reading about good plays made by others in epic games with six or more players. I always enjoy reading about multiplayer strategies, and I always enjoy reading about decks created especially for multiplayer. And that’s why…
