Arena Craft Podcast

This week, Arjuna is honored to welcome to the show Rivals member and Grand Prix Top-8-er Chris Botelho! We discuss a mental methodology for improving at the game, starting with which land drop to play on turn 1. Chris' improvement strategy is one of the best in the game. We also discuss metagames, including the dozens of potentially viable decks in Historic!

Find Chris Botelho on Twitter, Twitch and Youtube.

It's that glorious time again - the time when Arjuna and CGB wax lyrical about what's working - and what's flaming in the dumpster fire - in Standard. Is GW Enchantments a deck? How about Naya Runes? Is the Kami War a meme? How do they stack up against Standard staples like Izzet, Orhov Tokens, Monowhite or Monogreen? All this and considerably more memes are included in this episode.
