Episode 96 - Games as Gifts and $100 Collections

In this two part episode, we first discuss the benefits, risks, and what to think about when giving games as gifts. We follow that up with a semi-related excercise where we each build our ideal collection, BUT we are limited to a budget of $100, AND we are drafting against eachother. We'd love to know who you think ended with the better collection and what games would make your $100 collection. Pre-Planners Next week, we are covering BattleCON.
