On this week's episode, we return to the topic of brackets BECAUSE WE'RE ALLOWED TO CHANGE OUR MINDS ABOUT SOME STUFF. We're also featuring a clip from @TolarianCommunityCollege (starting at 32:54) help us make some sense as to why Magic's IPs have felt a little weird lately.. The big question is: When will WotC realize that they're alienating EVERY demographic with their lack of attention to worl...

FLASH is BACK!! This week we're talking about three decks that we think will either EXPLODE onto the scene or CONTINUE to put up results!! Most have seen the meta remain stagnant with the top decks remaining at the top. Our choices for this episode are purely based on how fun, powerful, fresh, and flexible these decks can be! Tayam: https://moxfield.com/decks/ltychfs9LUapyR2wl7W2wQ (credit to I_AM...

I gotta say: the banning of Dockside was the BEST thing that could've happened to cEDH!! It has allowed for FROGS TO RUN RAMPANT!! Helga arrives on the scene with a TON of potential as the NEW Bant Food Chain Queen!! It was so much fun breaking this deck down and revealing its ceiling. The future is BRIGHT for this Froggy Queen!

This kinda felt like rambling, but what is podcasting if not a little rambly from time to time! RogSi is the hottest deck on the block and there's so much more to know than how the deck works: what's a good matchup? What's a good starting hand? Does turn order affect how the deck performs?? All things we talk about today! Hopefully you find some nuggets in the episode that help you understand the...

Menace flexes his noggin muscle and breaks down Shalai and Hallar on this week's cEDH Breakdown!! The Naya Machine Gun is BACK!!

It's incredibly exciting to be able to return to decks after the bans to see what is potentially viable in today's meta!! Menace also talk...

Don't know about you, but I love me a good toad to build around if you know what I mean. Even if you don't, I'll let you interpret that how you'd like. WE'RE BACK AGAIN talking about THE GITROG MONSTER this week! We run through the loops you're likely to see, likely to play, and likely to win with as you build and learn how to play the deck! There are so many good and goofy lines of play that have...

While we might drag on Wizards of the Coast for their perpetual embodiment of the Slowpoke meme, we felt it would be fun to brew up one of their most recent Universes Beyond creations: Storm, Force of Nature!! Menace has a lot of bad ideas and Flash is here to bring him back down to Earth. We also make a case for Wandering Archaic in the every evolving meta that is the PSB era!! (Pre-SpongeBob Era...
