42 decks! Lol the internet is a weird rabbit hole. Just getting back into some Duels and exploring the rich history again! Thanks for keeping so much of it easily accessible online!

Sophist, thanks for reading and for your wonderful contributions to Epic Duels! I have no map-making capability of my own so I too would love a program, but I’m not holding my breath.

I don’t intend to upset anyone with the description of the Golden Age, but for newcomers, I think it’s worth understanding that there was such a time. My goal is to help people like yourself understand that all the content, and myself as the administrator of it, didn’t just suddenly show up. There’s a whole history to the online community of this great game.

Yes, I am the one who interviewed Rob Daviau and I think I got through to him that what he’s created still has an active following, because, to my surprise, he then decided to re-do the game as Unmatched.

Based on the interviews from the creators (your interviews, I think?), I’m not even sure they were aware of what they created.

I’m upset I missed the golden age, but I loved this game as a kid when it came out, and only rediscovered it when an old co-worker posted on facebook how sets were being sold online for up to $1000. Broke out the old game, and started pondering if expanding into other universes was possible. Google search later and found out people have been doing in for a decade. Pretty crazy. Very thankful, for the people who’ve added input on anything I’ve created, and guidelines to deck building, and of course the deck designer program. Still hoping, someone will make a map design guideline/program in the future 😀
