Space Cats Peace Turtles

We were finally able to return to GenCon for the first time since 2019, and this time we got to hold a a real live show at the local Helium Comedy Club. Our other podcast, Old Gamer's Almanac, opened for us because they are incredibly kind and to be honest they went kind of long. But once they were done, we had some time to also do some live SCPT shenanigans. Listen, this isn't your normal episode, but it is an extra fun one, so please enjoy.   Music provided by Ben Prunty.

IT'S A BIG EPISODE! The tournament Finals are literally upon us, but that doesn't mean we can't bring you fresh, dense, gritty strategy talk. We've been playing with Yin since their Codex 3 update, and it's time to talk about where the faction is. Newflash: they're still not very good. It's almost like there's a fundamental flaw in their entire design ethos, BUT WHO AM I? JUST SOME DUMB GUY. Please enjoy this look at how to do "well" as the Yin Brotherhood.
