Hey everyone! Kya here! Welcome back to another edition of Combining Hobbies. My Tyranid army has grown considerably already since my last article. Warhammer is definitely fun but nothing really fills that need for the occasional EDH game. Something just feels comforting sitting at a table with friends and slinging spells.

This week, I want to go in a different strategic direction, and focus on a commander that's new to me. As Dominaria spoilers begin to […]
