DblDubz and Tuff sit down with Realms Rising community member Azgalor to talk with the creator behind Magic & Steel, a massive custom Hero Realms market deck built around spells, weapons, and the possibilities of digital design. We cover Azgalor’s background, the set’s inspirations, design priorities, and what makes this project so ambitious.

Hey everybody, DblDubz here. I love the Realms Rising community and have an absolute blast playing in the community organized events. Even if it's just a little bragging rights, playing with something on the line against people you know, just makes it that much more exciting to me! That's part of why talking strategy and working together to optimize our play is something I love doing.
A few other facts about me -- I come from a competitive Magic: the Gathering background and have played fewer than 50 games of Star Realms! I'm also married and have a one and a half year old son, both of whom I love spending time with.
Chat me up on the Discord server or send me a challenge in game any time!
