At day two of Gen Con, John and Brontë didn't play much Sorcery and instead ran around squeeing and squealing about so many cool games and events. Now, mere hours before the Saturday Constructed event, they scramble to get their decks together.

At the official first day of Gen Con, John and Brontë played Delta Green, Starfinder 2e, and, of course, Sorcery: Contested Realm. Drafting was a blast, and they're sleepiest guys.
