Eternal Durdles

Zac and Phil choose a couple of cards to talk about before we record the full set review next week with the Return of Nathan Golia. We also added TWO new parodies by ForceofPhil! Intro and Outro.

Phil is upset about the framing of the community's discussion of the b&r list. Zac is a jackass.

Zac confesses to Phil that he's not feeling the love with Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. 

Zac and Phil get into the spoilers from Maro on Blogatog for MTGDND. 

Zac schools Phil on some D&D knowledge in regards to the abilities and art direction on Den of the Bugbear. Phil talks about what he's learned since MH2 became legal. Zac shares some minor MTG finance findings.

Phil and Zac are having a party for the 200th episode. We invited Jerry Mee and Pat Euglow from Leaving a legacy, Cyrus Corman-Gil and Eric Vergo from Top Down Legacy, Joe Dyer II of MTGGOLDFISH , and of course Nathan Golia is back!

Phil and Zac talk about the rest of Strixhaven and the brand new drops from MH2 and MTGDND. 

Nate is leaving the podcast after five years. Zac and Phil ask him anything and everything about Magic. [A message from Nate: Thank you for listening. I appreciate all of you who took the time to check in with us. I'm not quitting Legacy or Magic just stepping down from the cast. Onward.] This does mean we didn't do Part 2 of the Strixhaven review yet. Nate's Twitter: @n_r_g

Hell yes it's set review time. We discuss whimsy for a while and debate how combo decks work. We actually ran out of time so we'll circle back to the cards you're mad we missed next time. Here's what we got so far (time stamps approximate!): 22 Magma Opus 24 Body Of Research 25 Harness Infinity 26 Blot out the Sky 28 Silverquill Silencer 32 Blex, Vexing Pest / Search for Blex 35 Double Major 37 Fl...

This Week in Legacy writer Joe Dyer joins Phil and Nate to talk about havin' kids, gettin' vaccinated, and Legacy. (Strategies and Tactics for Nic Fit/Explorer Rock starts about half an hour before the end of the episode.)

Phil, Zac and Nate discuss the many miniature eras of eternal Magic during the COVID-19 year. Nate and Phil have a spirited discussion about green one-drops.

We pontificate on potential Universes Beyond that could impact Legacy down the road, now that it's happening. Also discuss the fun things we're trying in the new Legacy and old-border reprints. Note: Patreon supporters can watch this podcast on video! It's a new perk we're adding, check out the Patreon to find out more.

We live-streamed our celebration of the death of Oko, Thief of Crowns; Dreadhorde Arcanist; and Arcum's Astrolabe. Still works as audio only though. A new day for Legacy.

gdi we finally recorded and they're just gonna fix the format monday.  oh well. we talk about valki. why can you do this? also new song!

We chat with Stu Ziarnik, erstwhile leader of Austin's Romancing the Stones tournaments, on building and maintaining eternal Magic communities and adapting to the new webcam-based world. RTS plays mostly Vintage, with some Old School and Middle School mixed in. Check out the site: stonesmtg.com; and twitter.com/StonesVintage

Talkin' Magic with longtime friend of the cast Eric Vergo, the only person to top-8 both Legacy and Vintage champs in paper in the same year! We talk about Eric's Soul Sisters deck, his newfound love of brewing, what's going wrong in development, how to improve coverage, and much more. Happy new year everyone!

The guys ponder whether it's time to just play Yorion in everything. Then we discuss some of the early Kaldheim spoilers. What musical theme world will we head to after metal?  Phil's Yorion Monte: 3 Painter's Servant 4 Goblin Engineer 4 Baleful Strix 4 Trinket Mage 4 Tribute Mage 4 Urza, Lord High Artificer 4 Karn, the Great Creator 4 Force of Will 4 Force of Negation 4 Brainstorm 4 Ponder 4...

We have a bad Maro tweet to discuss! Is it possible that the average player doesn't know what the stack is or what planeswalkers are? Why is this information being told to us anyway? It's basically an hour of riffing on this nonsense.  Back next week with decks!

We return from an extended hiatus to review Commander Legends for Legacy. Is Prosperous Bloom back? How good is the monarch, really? Then, we wrap up in the final half-hour or so with discussion of the U.S. election. If you don't want to listen to non-Magic talk, just shut it off after the review!

Nate and Phil adventure through Zendikar Rising looking for treasure. (It was late and I was too tired to timestamp the cards, sorry!)
