Welcome to another episode of The Salt Mine! After all our international guests we take it back to Australia and talk about the recent tournaments we’ve been to. With the large Guf Ballarat tournament in the rear view, we talk about our preparation for CanCon 2017’s Legacy event, how our tournaments went and other general banter about our experiences in the nation’s capital and where the metagame is going. Enjoy!
