(Episode written by Lars Harald Nordli)

Hello everyone !

Today marks the beginning of our new Ancestral’s cycle. This month, we will focus on how to perform various tournament operations.

This week’s article is written by Matteo Callegari where he teahces us the Australian Deck Check technique, a technique which will help you speed up your deck checks at Limited-events.

The key point of the Australian DC is to save time by not changing the order of the cards in the decks: in this way, you’ll be faster in performing the deck check and players won’t need to shuffle the decks after the check. You may even be able to perform a full deck check and give only a +3 minutes time extension!

I hope this technique is something that you can try out to see if your deck checks go faster. Until next week!
