Pie Break // Commander Sphere

This week Dan and Rachel get distracted a lot. But they try to talk about win cons, knowing your role within a pod, and how equipment works to scale with big creatures.

Dan and Rachel detail what they believe to be the perfect system for EDH power level ranking. No further systems will be needed after this.

Dan and Rachel talk about stax again since the whole "stax players are perverts" thing seems to have really stuck. Then they talk about the mono-white problem. Then they talk about what role each planeswalker would play in a high school movie. It's a good time!

Dan and Rachel re-recorded this episode after a technological disaster and it turned out way better! They talk about Ikoria Commander predictions, Sonic the Hedgehod, and what type of EDH players various celebrities would be

Dan and Rachel talk about the Hybrid Mana debate, the most annoying cards/combos that they play anyway, and their pet peeves in game. Inevitably, the conversation comes back around to the recent EDH drama surrounding casual and cEDH but they only talk about it for like five minutes, promise.

Dan and Rachel talk about which EDH non-essentials they're willing to spend a little bit of extra money on. Then they discuss some of the attitude/acceptance issues that plague the EDH community.

Rachel and Dan talk about salt! What is it? What causes it? How do you deal with it? Listen in and protect your playgroup from the grim specter of bad vibes. The episode closes out with a list of some of the silliest card names in Magic, as a treat.

Rachel and Dan talk about why they like prereleases, some new decks they're building, and what Magic creatures they'd be willing to eat

Do people love set review episodes? Do people hate set review episodes? There's truly no way to know for sure. Dan and Rachel both picked a handful of cards from Theros: Beyond Death that they're excited about! Some are commanders! Some are just fun! Not a lot of rules here, if the last episode's tangent about turtle sex didn't clue you into that

This one was really all over the place but in a fun way! Rachel and Dan talk about their favorite colors and color combos to play, which somehow leads to a 10 minute tangent about turtle sex which somehow leads back to figuring out once and for all which of the five colors is the most blatantly sexual. This might be one to wear headphones for if you're at work. Sorry about that.
