On this episode, Maria and Meghan do a deep dive about all the new information and controversy surrounding the announcement of Magic’s 1st-ever Mythic Invitational. What’s up with the wacky format called “Duo Standard”? Why did one participant suddenly drop out? And what does Wizards of the Coast hope for the future of Arena and it’s foray into esports? Find out! PLUS: New Standard decks that will help you take all the turns ever, mess-around with some midrange antics, or smash your opponent with some help from a certain Deputy. Oh! And we’ll all learn at least one fun fact about trees.
