Haven’t posted since the announcement. Wanted to share my early Christmas present from Wizards. They made sure I got one and I am grateful. It’s beautiful. I hope everyone who wants one can get one in March.

Big news! I’m working with Wizards of the Coast to share that the Secret Lair Dandân Deck drops in March 2026! Keep an eye on secretlair.wizards.com when March rolls around. Don’t forget!

I teased this and here it is. Very “red” fish. Instead of top deck manipulation this one is based on aggressive attack and reversing the aggression with Split Second that can’t be responded to. It’s good, but creative players are coming up with a lot of great variants docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I’m working on finalizing a new fishy shared library variant I call Red Hot Seizoned Fish, but it is probably just easier to call it “Red Herring.” It feels very “red” the way Dandan feels very “blue.”
October 7, 2025 at 11:49 PM
I’ll mention, though it took time and it may or may not have been pressure from the community that made it happen, I DID hear from Wizards of the Coast yesterday. The person I spoke to was very nice and apologetic and I have no doubt they will see to it that I have access to getting a Secret Lair.

I'll have a full article about the Secret Lair Dandan deck from #MCAtlanta on MMORPG tomorrow, but I did want to share a quote from Senior Product Lead Mike Yoon about WotC not including format inventor @magicstorytime.bsky.social in the process. #MTG

“Super fun Magic variants to share.”

I never expected or wanted anything when I gave Dandan to the Magic community in 2016 except maybe some feedback and recognition that players were enjoying what I had created.

I want to say thank you to everyone who is supporting me and acknowledging my little contribution to this game that has been a part of my life for over 30 years. I am glad I was able to put a little, but long lasting stamp on the game. That’s what really matters to me.

I’ve not seen the full Dandan Secret Lair. I don’t really care if I get credit or anything from it. Rhystic Studies and informed players know its origins. I just hope I’ll be able to own a copy of the official release and not have them sell out to scalpers and stuff like I’ve heard can be a problem.

Hey MagicCon Atlanta folks — quick Q: did the Secret Lair “non-Commander constructed” product this weekend include the Forgetful Fish / Dandân deck? If you opened one, can you post a photo of the box + decklist or spoiler? (Credit: Nickolas Floyd). Thanks!
