Splashing is a difficult concept to master in limited and Neon Dynasty is full of powerful cards worth stretching your mana for. This week, your hosts are here to breakdown mana bases, the requirements for splashing, and how to build decks with a light splash all the way to full 5 color greed!

In the midst of a huge weekend of MTG competitions with both the Arena Open and the LOL vs. LR Showdown, your hosts take stock of the current limited format and one part of it in particular: black. What makes this color shine, how should you be drafting it, and what do its four archetypes look like? Roundtable Draft: https://www.17lands.com/draft/82e358ad789e4171b6a3b2e207e0dd59

With the Arena Open this weekend, your hosts are here with a bonus episode to talk about all things Neon Dynasty Sealed. We take a look at some big picture truths about the format as well as some specific differences between draft and sealed to give you the best chance at making Day 2 on Sunday!

Sagas feel nearly as powerful in NEO as something like cycling in IKO and until the metagame shifts your hosts believe they're the best thing to do in the format. This week we're discussing how we're approaching NEO, what makes the Sagas so busted, and how their power level influences the drafts and gameplay in this format!

After a weekend full of drafting Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, your hosts are here to share everything they've learned about the format so far. There's a lot to discuss in terms of synergies (large and small), individual cards, early 17lands.com data, and top commons re-ranked.

We are just a few days away from our first drafts of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, so it's time for a Crash Course in this incredibly complex set! We've got our usual mix of stats on creatures vs. removal, archetype support, mana sinks, fixing, card disagreements, and top commons/uncommons!

Spoiler season for Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty is kicking off and we're here to look at as many commons and uncommons as we can before the whole set drops. We're diving in to the new and returning mechanics (with twists!), the various two-color pair themes, "great or garbage," and much more!
