  • Love the show, keeps getting better!

    This is a great pod for anyone who grew up in the early days of magic, has rediscovered their love for the game and is stoked that there is a large, multinational community to be a part of. I mostly enjoy the deck tech but I love the casual conversations and camaraderie of guys from different backgrounds, careers and countries all sharing the same hobby. Thank you and keep it up, sending best regards from Yellowknife in the Northward Territories CA

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 61 - Flint Espil
Q: Where are you going next, and what will you play there?
The guest plans to attend Cream CityCon in Milwaukee with a Stormseeker-based storm/blue-red shell, including a mix of fireball, Twister, and Stormseeker lines, testing how the list scales in a four-strip environment; weathering a schedule of various events ahead.
Episode 61 - Flint Espil
Q: Would you play this deck again, and what would you change?
Yes, it would be worth revisiting; possible changes include trimming initiates or hippies, potentially moving toward a green splash, and experimenting with counterspells to slow down opponents at the cost of some speed.
Episode 61 - Flint Espil
Q: How well did you do with this deck?
The deck performed better than expected at five wins and three losses in the derby, with several matches where the combo delivered and earned praise from opponents.
Episode 60 - Will Magrann
Q: Okay, first question, which is obviously the easiest one.
An introduction and set-up question that leads into Will's background as an old-school player and his recent Swedish events.
Episode 57 - DFB, Mase, etc - Buffalo Stampede 2
Q: You came in first, and your draft from the prize pool was Artifact Blast. What went through your mind?
I saw there wasn't an unlimited IC in the prize pool and felt that Artifact Blast offered tangible, immediate counterplay options to the Shops deck, so I snapped it up without overthinking other choices.
