Three Sets Worth of Previews!?!
Somehow this week has provided the guys with new cards from three different sets to talk about! Historic Anthology 5, Modern Horizons 2, and D&D: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms are all explored with that classic Arena Decklists lens. No matter what format you’re focused on, this monster cast has something for you!

The Future of Professional Magic
With Wizards of the Coast again taking a hammer to organized play, the guys are left weighing in on yet another cataclysmic change to the Magic landscape. Did they really discuss ending the podcast? Do they have any optimism that this could actually be a good thing? Join the boys as they progress through however many stages of grief there are, and mourn the passing of this latest incarnation of professional Magic.

Strixhaven Schools Standard... Sort Of
Strixhaven’s initial appearance on the Standard stage didn’t really blow anyone’s socks off, but beneath a static top of the metagame, Gerry and Bryan see some potential. They’ve bonded over a love for a surprise deck that you won’t see coming, and they’re still holding on to hope that Sacrifice decks are starting to figure things out. If you’re not satisfied with the status quo, let Gerry and Bryan guide you forward!

Strixhaven meets Modern
A little something for everyone in this episode, as Gerry and Bryan check in with the latest Modern league on Magic Online, but also spend plenty of time checking in with Standard, Historic, and telling stories about the good old days like the out of touch geriatrics that they are. Two full hours of Strixhaven goodness, ready to be beamed directly into your earballs!
