There’s no way to deny that we are starved for things to talk about in the Lorcana community. Which inevitably brings us back around to the same topics, same conversations and the same arguments. 

So when LoreMadness was announced and running, it got a lot of us talking. Meme battles, electioneering and much debate was had during the course of LoreMadness.

Today we are joined by the creators and hosts of LoreMadness, Stephanie and James to discuss the madness that happened!

The Lorcana community is being built with care by people like Stephanie and James and in this episode we get to hear the behind the scenes!

On Jan 17 2023 IGN dropped an article with a lot of new Lorcana news. While we originally planned to talk about organized play at a higher level, we ended up breaking this podcast into two. This episode focuses on the IGN news and next episode will focus on organized play at a higher level.
