MUSKETEERS vs. BROOMS! Disney Lorcana CASUAL THEMED deck gameplay!

[@gghun04]

Because of your videos the game started to interest me very much and I have ordered the new starter decks and the coop Deep Trouble game. I could play them with my friend all day and even my 3 years of daughter took part and counted the lore we collected. It was a great experience, thank you for the great showcase.

[@InkbornHeroes]

It's comments like this that warm our hearts! 🥲 We're so happy to hear you've gotten into Lorcana, and excited to hear how your adventure goes.

[@Saiyagurl]

I love that you guys explain your moves as you play because it really helps me understand the game better. Musketeers has always been an interesting concept but it looks like it can be annoying when a lot of them are un-inkable. I'm so glad Brooms got better because I love Fantasia! This deck seems very clear cut and easy to use. I haven't tried an Amethyst deck yet so I may give this one a go!

[@InkbornHeroes]

We’re glad to hear it’s helpful watching us play! 🤩 That’s definitely a goal for us. Brooms are definitely fun to play with, so we’d definitely recommend giving them a go 🧹

[@technoLorecana213]

I just wanted to say that I love your guys channel so much. Thank you for making such incredible videos for all of us Illumineer’s

[@InkbornHeroes]

That's so kind of you, honestly! Messages like this mean the world to us. We really try to push the quality of our videos further and further every time, so it makes us happy that you like the content. Happy questing!

@@InkbornHeroes I love how much fun the two of you have when playing and making videos

[@SchuckPipe]

Ah brilliant stuff guys. Just in the middle of finishing building brooms for my girlfriend. Just think I need another 4 cards and we’re finished! Can’t wait to play it

[@InkbornHeroes]

It's such a fun deck! I'm sure your girlfriend is going to have a blast with it 🧹

[@thetravelerkureno1371]

I love the themed decks! (sorry the queue spit out in the wrong vid but I do love that you guys do.themed decks I always found this the most fun idea about lorcana

[@InkbornHeroes]

We’re glad you enjoyed 🤩

[@lordk4in]

Already was looking for those 2 decks, brooms & musketeers. Very nice game !

[@InkbornHeroes]

Glad that these were themes you were looking for and that you enjoyed the video. ^^ Thanks for the comment.

[@324munchkin]

Love the theme decks! Can’t wait for more videos 🎉

[@InkbornHeroes]

Thank you! We are glad that you liked them! Stay tuned, we try to post new themed decks every Thursday. 🥳

[@Teachermook]

Theme decks are the best. Honestly when I build decks I go for theme over meta. The resulting matches are incredibly fun!

[@kellywang3470]

Lost yesterday to a broom deck v similar to yalls list! But no hard feelings, cuz the synergies are srsly amazing 😂

[@InkbornHeroes]

They are very strong synergies indeed. A lot of cars draw and constant back and forth between brooms. 😬

[@MatizzelGames]

Nice, now i have a list for the musketeers 😍 Thank you Guys

[@InkbornHeroes]

We hope you have fun with it! Let us know if you make any changes because there’s definitely room for improvement 😂

[@Teachermook]

I didn't have enough for a straight up musketeers deck, so it wounf up becoming a keepers of justice deck, with, of all people, GANTU leading the charge!

[@Celaceial]

Loved the vid!! I like trying to theme decks like this 😁

[@InkbornHeroes]

We are glad you liked it! 😊 We have a lot of fun playing with more casual and themed decks. It’s just so fun to realize all of the different synergies between themes. Can’t wait for more sets to come up, so we can put together even more themes.

[@DanielAlva360]

In the broom deck you could also play Bruno Madrigal | Undetected Uncle

[@InkbornHeroes]

Absolutely! With so many Brooms, he’s likely to hit quite often. For these decks, we try and stay as close to the theme as possible which is why he’s not included. But we’ve been trying him out in our Broom list we run at league

[@Arechiga93]

23:14 The broom was played paying 6 cost, however there was the Wayward sorcerer making the brooms cost 1 less!!!!! 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠 Great videos but there is always room for improvement when missplays happen

[@InkbornHeroes]

Haha, you’re right and we realised the turn after 🫣 But yes, definitely room for improvements.

[@Just_jill325]

Ohh I can’t wait to try and play these decks!! Where are your tokens from? So many to chose from on Etsy!

[@InkbornHeroes]

Let us know how you get on! 🤩 And these tokens are from Laser Gaming on Etsy

[@mute_cebu_]

Great gameplay! Love the style of both decks. Musketeers should had this one, though! Around 12:05 and 21:50, Goofy could have quested for 2 before a Bodyguard was played - and with the Steel Mickey Musketeer's ability, Goofy could have banished the big broom in one go, so he still would have been able to do everything else. Playing that last Donald Duck for +1 Lore would have been game!

[@InkbornHeroes]

Oh, you're so right! This deck required a bit of mental gymnastics to try and remember to trigger all of the abilities and synergies in the right order, but it's true that if those two turns were played differently, the Musketeers could have brought it home ⚔

[@MarkothISOP]

At 18:20 when Mickey is shifted in, the musketeer player draws 2 cards because of Goofy and the first Mickey but could have drawn a third because the second Mickey is also a Bodyguard.

[@InkbornHeroes]

If that’s the case, it definitely makes Mickey a bit more playable. But I’m not sure if he’d be considered to be “in play” when the check for bodyguards happens.

[@Cleansweep38]

Oh ok sorry, my bad. Suggestion: What are your thoughts on tweaking your Magic Broom Deck a little? Add: 1- Smash 2- Rise of the Titans Remove: 1- Friends on the other side 1- The Sorcerer’s Hat 1- The Sorcerer’s Tower

[@InkbornHeroes]

It’s all good! We’re all learning 😊 Those sound like some good improvements. The Hat is fun but very gimmicky so could definitely be swapped out. If it was less Brook themed, I’d definitely add the Merlin/Mim bounce package to get more value out of Mickey and Yen Sid too.

[@Crimsonboardgames]

I love the broom deck it's so fun to play!!

[@InkbornHeroes]

We really enjoy too! Do you have any tips to make it stronger?

[@Crimsonboardgames]

@@InkbornHeroes oh good question!! I did add more wayward sorcerer Mickey's because I think it's a very good card. I'm not very great at building decks so😂

[@TheErwin62]

Great video guys! Question - where did y’all get the counters for strength and willpower?

[@InkbornHeroes]

Thanks so much 🥹 The counters are from an Etsy store called Laser Gaming

[@davidgold747]

When you play an item, do you have to wait next turn to use its effects? Great video btw very entertaining

[@InkbornHeroes]

Glad you liked it! ^^ You can use the effects of an item in the same turn you've played it.

[@aaronharmon2482]

Have you guys done a snow white and the seven dwarfs against an evil queen 👑???

[@InkbornHeroes]

It’s funny you mentioned that 👀 Actually there aren’t enough cards yet to pit them against each other, but we’re recording a video soon where they team up

[@DestinedBeastx]

You should add the floodborn little John to the musketeer deck it should help

[@InkbornHeroes]

We try and stick as close to the theme for these videos, but I did try out Little John in the musketeer deck I play in league. Honestly, I found him to be a bit too slow. Maybe if he’s shifted in, but the low cost version isn’t great either 🤔

[@melaniegeddes4539]

Loved this gameplay video. The synergies were amazing to watch. Just waiting for my set 4 cards to arrive so I can make my very own broom deck. Any recommendations of how it can be altered slightly to make it a bit more competitive (suitable for league matches) I've never played competitively yet but I'd love to have a fun deck to play with that can give others a run for their money

[@InkbornHeroes]

Thanks Melanie!

[@melaniegeddes4539]

@@InkbornHeroes thanks so much. I'll have to watch a few gameplays of the Merlin/Mim bounce package as I'm still not 100% on how to use it to best maximise the abilities successfully

[@InkbornHeroes]

@@melaniegeddes4539 Of course! They're from an Etsy store called Laser Gaming :)

@@InkbornHeroes second this. Cut some of the worse brooms for Madam Mim bounce. That’s what we have in ours!

[@Teachermook]

This is a wild idea but........ Mickey and friends vs. Monsters!!!!

[@InkbornHeroes]

Which Monsters should we include in this list? 😜

[@Teachermook]

@@InkbornHeroes focus would be on the titans, but also cerberus, flotsam and jetsam, and perhaps the firebird and variations of scar and diablo.

[@Austintoews]

@inkbornheroes where did you get that sorcerer Mickey play mat?

[@InkbornHeroes]

We designed it ourselves. You can get access to all the playmats we designed so far (over 20!) if you join our Tier 3 KZbin Membership. Otherwise, we also share one design (in random) per month to all members on our discord server. Come join us in the server to grab the current one we shared! ^^

[@stargazer016]

its really fun!!

[@InkbornHeroes]

We had a blast playing this match! ^^ Thanks!

[@JeffDarkspawn]

No card sleeves scared me! Nice video tho

[@InkbornHeroes]

It scares us as well! 😂 But for recording, with our current lighting setup we were getting a lot of glare on top of it. But as soon as the recording ended, we sleeved it all over again haha!

[@Cleansweep38]

17:28 I believe the broom deck forgot to gain lore from his location card this turn.

[@InkbornHeroes]

The Sorcerer’s Tower actually doesn’t have any passive lore gain. Instead, characters there get +1 lore when they quest.

[@WatchEnderPlay]

Would you guys ever do subscriber deck battles? I have a broom deck that I would love to see you play because your better than me lol I want to see it kick butt hahaha

[@InkbornHeroes]

Hey there! Can I suggest that you join our Discord Server and drop your deck list there in one of our channels? We have a dedicated one for that. We love what you are suggesting and think it could be a nice video format. Perhaps we just need two members, each sharing their decks and then Charlie and I can do these deck battles. Thanks. ^^

[@WatchEnderPlay]

Awesome !!$ I’ll join the discord !!!

[@Schloch83]

I want that Micky playmat 😢

[@InkbornHeroes]

Hey there! We made it ourselves, for personal use.

[@patrickoneal5066]

A Ruby Steel or Ruby Sapphire Hero deck could be cool with the new Anna and Phil cards

[@Aelin777]

@@InkbornHeroes Those look amazing! How did you get that high res art from the cards to fit on a playing mat?!

[@InkbornHeroes]

@@Aelin777 We rely a lot on finding the full arts from the artists of the game, so we usually start from there. That's why sometimes some particular art might take longer to put together, as some of these arts take a while to be shared. When we can find it, at times, I had to draw it myself some of the extension using Pro Create, on iPad.

[@Aelin777]

Okay. Do you just find it on their Instagram accounts or websites?

[@InkbornHeroes]

Usually their portfolios, since they can post in super high resolution. Just give your favourite artists a Google and see what you can find 😊

[@StEvEMaCIas]

That broom synergy > musketeer synergy. I think the musketeers would be serve as a complement to a deck versus being the headline event. Similar to Flotsam & Jetsam or Jaq & Gus or other minor synergistic characters.

[@InkbornHeroes]

I think you’re definitely correct. We’re going to build a slightly more competitive version of the Musketeer deck to run at our local league.

[@ericwilki207]

I agree with you, they need more lower cost musketeers and some better pay offs

[@melaniegeddes4539]

question about playing the brooms though, shouldn't it cost 1 less ink because of Sorcerer Mickey?

[@InkbornHeroes]

It should! We kept forgetting about the discount, and it could really have made a difference in some of the turns.

[@joshuaplone3402]

The lack of sleeves 😮. Great video!

[@InkbornHeroes]

Hahah we use sleeves. We just had to take it off for this one video, because of our current lighting setup. We are having trouble avoiding the light reflecting on it. Until we fix that, we need to make these videos without sleeves! XD

[@antonybrisson4090]

You guys play with no sleeves?!

[@InkbornHeroes]

Not normally 😂 But the sleeves were glaring because of the light so we had to take them off

[@azurestrike6551]

No sleeves!? There’s going to be so much edge wear on your precious cards

[@InkbornHeroes]

Hey! We mentioned that a few times already in the video, but here it go again 😜 We use sleeves in our cards on a daily basis. But we couldn’t use for this, and some of our next videos, because we were having issues with glaring on camera. It would be pointless to make a gameplay video if all the cards were hard to see on screen. Also, you might not have noticed, but all legendaries had tight sleeves in this video. All that said, we now have bought the proper lighting equipment and can now use sleeves for the videos as well. 🥳 Stay tuned!
