- [How I Won Two Invitationals With Torrent Crasher](https://www.gemblenders.com/2025/08/08/how-i-won-with-torrent/) - Torrent is a control deck based on using Torrent crasher’s ability to discard blends from both sides of the field and then using Data Cipher to return the blend you discarded.

- [Deck Workshop #2: Catalyst Controller](https://www.gemblenders.com/2025/09/15/deck-workshop-2-catalyst-controller/) - A bit ago, I made a deck list for the first level 5 blend in the base set, Blood Reaper, as a way to sequentially introduce ideas for intermediate decks for the community.
