Anybody here on Dakka play Disney Lorcana (trading card game)? If so, any cool stuff you've been doing with it, any amazing card pulls, or do you just have some general thoughts about the game? I noticed that there wasn't a thread about it so I decided to make one.

I myself have yet to play a game of Lorcana as my FLGS's Lorcana league plays on Saturdays, and since I work retail I never have Saturdays off. Mostly I've just been collecting the cards (when it's been possible, all of my local shops have been sold out for a long time until pretty recently), but the game looks really good and it's been a fun trip down memory lane seeing all these classic Disney animated characters. I actually just earlier this evening grabbed some of the new Rise of the Floodborn set, and in one of the boosters in a starter deck I pulled one of the Enchanted cards (the full art foils) of Alice. Possibly my best trading card pull of all time (and I've cracked a lot of Magic the Gathering boosters over the years). Sadly nobody seems to have current card value information on the card yet as the set just dropped, but I'm excited to see just how good of a pull it actually was!

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

It's huge here in Central California. Lots of stores running drafts, tournaments, leagues, etc. I'm into other TCG's but it has been fascinating watching the developments.

I was lucky enough to snag the first chapter starter decks at Gencon last year, complete mess of lines and limited stock as it was. I managed to build out a 4th deck of a similar power level using the contents of the booster packs included and snagging some singles from local shops.

Unfortunately, the months and months of silence and dearth of product put me off it pretty firmly. Availability seems to have improved somewhat, but with a wedding to save for later this year, I can't really justify hurling money at a CCG right now, let alone two, as I still lightly maintain the budget friendly new cards that come out now and then for my Magic deck collection, though I did recently sell off a good chunk of the remainder that isn't currently in use.

Anyways, I've enjoyed the game, I'm glad I snagged what I did when I had the chance. I like how it plays in multiplayer, especially free for alls, as you lose the player removal issue that multiplayer Magic carries. As in, it sucks to get knocked out, especially early, in a larger scale game that keeps going for an hour or two (or more).

On multi-player, we just had our first gathering at an LGS for Star Wars Unlimited Twin Suns. That is their multi-player format. There's a cool twist -- once one of the four players are knocked, out, the game ends at the end of that phase. So 1-3 players may have a chance to do an action one more time. Person who did the killing shot earns +5 health. It eliminates the boring wait for a game to finish that MTG and, apparently, Lorcana experiences.

On the note of Lorcana, it is doing well still. Here's a pic I snapped of their championship tournie today:
