The idea is a shared card pool for most cards and some specifics that can be swapped between games with colour indicators on the sleeves (marked in orange in the list). At the moment this is in testing, it may be too impractical to find and swap these cards out. But I do like the idea of being able to swap strategies between Reanimator and Group Slug on the fly.\n\n"},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/decks/4413229/sheoldred_the_true_scriptures_mono_black_dual_deck"},"insert":"Click here for the other list."},{"insert":"\n"}]}
