Gate City Swap: Buy or Sell Used Goods Cheap!
Geeksboro Entertainment presents the Gate City Swap -- a place where normal people are selling lightly used wares including clothes, collectibles, media, music, oddities, and more! Want to buy a table? They are $35 each. The only thing we ask is that all sellers just be regular people selling used stuff cheap (no professional vendors or resellers, please!) Think of it as an indoor community garage sale. Link to sign up is here: Gate City Swap Application

🌊 🏴☠️ Set Sail or Innovate: Dive into Disney Lorcana's Epic Azurite Sea Decks!
Disney Lorcana fans have a thrilling new adventure with the latest Azurite Sea Starter Decks, offering Pirate and Inventor themes packed with exciting cards from classics like Treasure Planet and Big Hero Six. The Emerald/Sapphire deck focuses on Inventors, combining clever strategies through item synergies. Despite its inventive mechanics, the deck’s effectiveness sometimes falls short due to limited items and reliance on specific character cards, making it feel less cohesive at times. However, standout cards like “Aunt Cass, Biggest Fan” still offer unique gameplay possibilities, perfect for those who love Big Hero Six.
On the other hand, the Amber/Ruby deck boasts a cohesive, aggressive playstyle centered on Pirates, enabling players to swarm the board with cost-effective characters and leverage location cards. With powerful synergies, like “Moana, Kakamora Leader” enhancing lore points through strategic positioning, it becomes a formidable choice. Although some of its strongest cards come with high ink costs, the overall Pirate theme delivers a well-rounded and satisfying deck. Ultimately, while both decks provide ample opportunities for fun and creativity, the Amber/Ruby deck stands out for its consistent and impactful gameplay, making it ideal for players who favor dynamic, strategic battles.
