Ode of the day:

Venture
by saltroza

At times, when once I looked upon a board
Whose drawlessness foretold a sorry game
And wondered how I'd manage to afford
The provinces my heart would seek to claim,
I'd scan the kingdom yet, until my eye
Fell wearily upon a yellow gleam
More typically ignored, and with a sigh,
I'd undertake a speculative scheme
To chain my way through shuffles, on a trek
Past endless junk, through treasures uncontrolled,
Haphazardly discarding bits of deck,
To end the quest, perhaps, by striking gold —
And glad I was that still some hope remained
When, truly, nothing Ventured, nothing gained.

Ode of the day:

Embargo
by JNails

You sparked a great fire inside of my soul
Those tactical tokens I sought and revered
But others could not see your critical role
The vanishing Silver's once more disappeared

My heart's palpitations have started to slow
No fancy Duration could block my lament
And so as they lifted the last Embargo
So out from within me the last ember went

Ode of the day:

Loan
by Sharur

There once was a card made for thinning
That, confusingly, didn’t cause winning
Many times, its reveals
Led to furious squeals
And it felt like your wheels were just spinning

With his gaze on a crystalline ball
Donald X made a radical call
New Prosperity’s great
You can trash that Estate
Loan forgiveness is slated for all

Ode of the day:

Cache
by JNails

Cache can’t curse or dole out spiced up tokens
Merely gains on-gain that make one wince
So it fell as new cards were awoken
Death knell dealt to copper strategists

While it was the furthest thing from broken
No one save its strongest malcontents
Would allege that it was too soft-spoken
If naught else, it gave you its two cents

Ode of the day:

Noble Brigand
by saltroza

Your deck is close to golden — frig! and
Yet I do not give a fig, and
Plan to play it bold and big and
As you zag, instead I’ll zig, and
Profit from your clunky rig and
Through your precious cards I’ll dig, and
Swipe your silver, dance a jig, and
From the victory cup I’ll swig, and
Toast my saviour, Noble Brigand!

Ode of the day:

Goons
by Sharur
(To the tune of Beans, Beans)

Goons, Goons, a magical card!
The more you have, the more it's hard
To keep your scoring under control.
As payload, it fills every role!

Goons, Goons, departed too soon.
Collection’s strength is more in tune.
It had to be? I cannot agree.
Oh Goons, my heart yet mourns for thee!

Ode of the day:

Pirate Ship
by seanhan

The pirate ship sailed out from port
To plunder natives in their village
The islands offered cache in spades
With treasures ripe to trash and pillage

Could magic make this ship retire?
For years it lurched but never sank
Could second coming seaside be
What made it walk the fateful plank?

And now we see its voyage end:
The centre failed, the beast was rough,
Its flag was lowered one last time
In tribute to the dragon Puff

Ode of the day:

Explorer
by Sharur

Oh come with me, and we’ll explore
The gold and silver found offshore!
We’ll gather riches, more and more!
Can’t wait to show you what’s in store!

What’s that you say? No more Explorer?
You’re filling me with abject horror!
My Provinces, what are they for… err…
Even my rhyming’s getting more… err… bad…

Ode of the day:

Contraband
by saltroza

Perhaps you’ve got illicit goods you’re trying to import?
This card’s unhelpful even then — a buy of last resort,
And in its place we’ve now procured a chest in which to store
Our weapons, just in case we’ll be preparing for a war.
So don’t expect to find it in your deck or in your hand.
It won’t be in the kingdom: on the contrary, it’s banned.

Ode of the day:

Duchess
by JNails

Duchy had value not for its VP
Nor for the buff it bestowed upon me
But because with it were given for free
Two who, in truth, to my heart held the key
Lass and young lad, must you tragically be
Gone now for good to the realm of 1E?
Farewell dear Duchess, thy Duke longs for thee
