Game Night at Lore Speakeasy
Thu, Apr 30, 1:30 AMEvery Wednesday, we wear cloaks. 🧝♀️⚔️ Lore's weekly game night is your weekly escape into something magical. Meet new friends as you traverse our two speakeasies and find different games to play. This week, we have a special collaboration with a dedicated Blood on the Clocktower group to have several games going in our Main speakeasy. In our Lord of the Rings inspired lounge, our staff transforms into LOTR characters, Bardcore covers of your favorite pop songs fill the air, and expect different tables playing various euro and lighthearted strategy games. Arrive in a full LOTR costume and we'll take $5 off your food and drinks. 👑 Feel free to bring a game you love from home, or discover a new favorite here from our collection. Whether you're a seasoned strategist or just looking for a great night out, there's a seat at the table for you. See you!!!!🍸🎶 📅 Every Wednesday \| 📍 Lore Speakeasy\, Mission District SF 🔗 [www.loresf.com](http://www.loresf.com) \| @lore_speakeasy \| discord\.gg/hAF9UGhejy

These guys bring these crazy-ass decks that always beat my tournament-caliber builds." --Bill "Don't go. These morons think they know how to play magic, but my legacy goblin deck can kill em all. I just have to remember to bring it next time." --Bob "I brought a vintage deck filled with proxy moxes. I won even before my opponents got to take their first turn! How cool is that! Of course, the next game I waited around while everyone destroyed everything i had in quick succession. But that's ok, I had fun!" --Amy If you are looking for websites to help you with deck ideas for casual magic, here are a few that are highly recommended: Magic Deck Vortex (http://www.magicdeckvortex.com) Essential Magic (http://www.essentialmagic.com/) Especially check out the combos page...highly useful for breaking things not meant to be broken.
