Another week in the books and Duskmourn is still delivering! This week, we focus on maximizing synergy and staying open in the draft portion, with a draft log roundtable to help illustrate our points. Then we go over some individual cards and combos that have impressed us this week, and Ethan breaks down exactly how to draft and win with one of the more underrated archetypes in the set: Rakdos!

Week 1 of Duskmourn is in the books and we are extremely excited about this set! And we've got all the bases covered with Ethan's success coming from the aggro space in the format and Ben's coming from the controlling side of things. There's just so much to do and we get into all of it in this episode! Including:   - a deep dive on what Ethan's missing about Manifest Dread - how we're approaching drafts - some key overperformers and top commons - and a draft log review!

We're making ROOM for Duskmourn this week as we get ready for the format to drop on Tuesday and reflect on our experiences in Early Access and Pre-Release Weekend. The Teeter-Totter is flipped with us walking back a lot of takes from last week, getting lower on Manifest Destiny...errr...Dread and much higher on Rooms and Eerie. Plus, lots of over and underperformers to discuss and the return of the post-credits blooper! Sponsored by BetterHelp

Welcome to the Duskmourn Crash Course! We're here to give you everything you need to know about the cards and strategies that matter in Duskmourn limited for your pre-release weekend! We're changing things up for this episode: looking at which pairs of signposts are pointing towards powerful draft archetypes, what crossover synergies might exist, card disagreements under the lens of our new grading system, and top commons and uncommons to look out for!

Another preview season is upon us and we're scared...of how fun this new format looks! We take a look at the new mechanics for Duskmourn as well as all the signpost uncommons that have been previewed so far to give us a sense of what to expect from this limited environment. Plus, we try to peg top commons, shout out some busted looking uncommons, and have our longest "Great or Garbage?" segment EVER!!! Sponsored by Mint Mobile 

Bloomburrow is getting ready to hibernate for the long winter ahead and so it's time to wrap-up the format with 50 Takes! Let's get 50 minutes on the clock as we review the winners and losers of the set's mechanics and archetypes, big talented hits, and some otter misses. Plus, the return of secret reach, the Golden Egg and Imperial Oath Award winners, and much more! Sponsored by BetterHelp

As Bloomburrow winds down, your hosts take the opportunity to look at card evaluation in the era of Play Boosters. How do the new packs change how we evaluate cards and what leaks can we shore up in the ways we personally are looking at cards before a set comes out? PLUS, Ben drops a hot take and cooks up a proposal for a new way to grade cards moving forward and Ethan is ALL IN! Sponsored by Miracle Made
