Sam...loved it. Any recommendations on a first Dandan deck list for someone who is trying this for the first time? Richard from Seattle.

I was taught Dandan about 2 months ago, crazy to see one of my favorite video essayists tackle such an obscure subject. Likening the game to Exploding Kittens, and Coup is perfect. I wonder if a similar deck/game could be produced with existing magic cards to allow for more than 2 players.

Thanks Sam. I will give it a spin with my son.

LOVED this video. I primarily play EDH online with my friends, so as curious as I am about this game, I'm a bit saddened that it can only be played in person. haha Also, I assumed you tried both of the emails on that Dandan doc? You showed the Gmail one in the video, but that top of the doc has a Hotmail address. I kept wondering what Nick Floyd was up to these days through the entire video. lol
