Welcome everybody. Today we discuss the impact that Alliances had when it first hit the scene in 1996 and we review some of the rares that are most interesting to us. Including a couple that can now be combo'd (sp?) in the most ridiculous ways with some cards that appeared a little later in Magic's history. Back in our prime playing days, that Phyrexian Devourer just sat around collecting dust. Most importantly, Alex selects his 2024 old-frame commander and the crowd goes wild. I also continue my streak of reading card texts incorrectly on the show, stating what I wish they did instead of what they actually do.
