Clock Spinning—Magic: the Gathering History

031: Goyfs! Lhurgoyf, Tarmogoyf, and their many offspring


Listen Later

Lhurgoyfs are a tribe totally unique to Magic, and they have a long and winding history. We’ll begin our journey in the depths of Magic’s Ice Age, and then take you on a weird Odyssey with a cycle of surprisingly competitive bad cards. Then of course we have Tarmo-daddy himself, and his rash of offspring right up through the present day.
