The Hero's Blade Vibe Check Radio Show

If a printed Attraction has a regular holofoil, but the one of Scryfall has the nut holofoil, which one is the legal one? Prophet from the Casuals 7's podcast is here to chat about Unfinity's very own Dee Kay (which I always mix up as either Kay Dee or Day Kee? dunno why). We discuss rolling dice, rolling out Attractions, if Unfinity is the set for us, and did Unfinity ruin Magic again for the 40t...

Let's change the tempo a bit! Today I bring on my long time friend Alex on for a little bit of Magic, but a ton of Transformers lore! Alex and I discuss the 15 Brothers War: Transformers cards being released in the near future, if their colour identities make any sense to Alex, and the absolute depth of stories many people (myself included!) have no idea that they're missing when it comes to this...

Joel aka Enthralimund from Squelch! Another Hearthstone Podcast and fellow MTG Lexicon community mem...

They're hackin' and wackin' and smashin'! They just hack, wack, smashin' those shards!  Light comes on with some mythic legend....and Armix, a legend that cares about artifacts. They discuss how they start with the deck concept of trinkets, between Clues, Treasures and Food, and applying the legends secondary.  To me, it's a lost art at this point, considering modern legendary creature d...

Dungeons and Dragons allows you to make characters with various backgrounds that have defined their life. In this case, Ganax was raised by faerie dragons in the Feywild.

A lover scorned is a scary thing, especially when a half elven bard can have her paintings can come to life! Crow from Children of Alara has come to talk of two things: Kalain, and Treasures. They go hand in hand for both of our decks, and for Kalain, it's the way to boost our creatures into the stratosphere while ramping in Rakdos. We delve into our thoughts of Treasures and design around it, wit...

In the frigid realm of Surtland, you struggle to keep yourself awake in a cave. You see a flicker of blue in the distance. You think your eyes are tricking you, until you see a hulking figure, washed in orange and blue, standing overhead...

Bryant makes his return to talk about what he's done to improve his Targ Nar deck, experiencing play outside of his typical playgroup, and the numerous ways we, as players, can improve. Not just by standards set by other people, but ultimately: what we can control within our own means. Seeking what makes commander truly special for us, and finding like minded people. Perhaps we all can't come toge...

Prava promises balance, stability, survival, and victory through attrition. Krark promises chaos, uncertainty, and a potentially explosive end, all based on a coin flip. Do you wanna take the chance? MJ joins me in the guest seat today as we discuss his combination of Prava and Krark, a spell slinger tokens deck that hinges on the benefits of Krark. And when all else fails, falling back on the tri...
