Hunter and Blasto are back with your next Ultimate guide. This one is a true pleasure since we're talking about the EMPYREAN.

Okay so this is a little bit crazy but Hunbun, Jadiim, and Blasto sat down recently to begin a long journey where they evaluate every action card and rank it on a tier list. They did not fully understand how big of a lift that would be and they only were able to cover Ancient Burial Sites through Divert Funding. There will be many more episodes on this but you should expect this one to take a whil...

Hunter drove all of his stuff across the country and things were tough so this is your late episode this week. It's a commentary episode over an old POK era episode where Matt and Hunter had a discussion on winmaking. It's a weird one but it was the best I could do given the circumstances.

This week Hunty needs a break while he prepares to shuffle his entire life across the country AGAIN, don't mind him this is just what he does.

Errata: During the Titan's of Ul Hero discussion we mistakenly clarify it as not being an attachment when it in fact is an attachment!
