Brainstorm Brewery

We’re so tantalizingly-close to episode 200 you can practically taste it. How are we spending our time until then? By producing the best possible podcast on the planet. Seriously, you’re getting this podcast for free. That’s value. If you only know one thing about MTG Finance and it’s “The best MTG Finance podcast is free” then you know a lot. You’ll know even more after this week when we hit you with some knowledge bombs. We don’t even explode those bombs, we just hit you with them. Why would we detonate those bombs? The knowledge inside would blow up along with them. It’s like you don’t even think.

Sometimes we get on a good discussion before the cast gets started and 15 minutes in, we realize it’s too good not to include in the episode so we just roll with it. That happened this week. The gang got into a discussion about accessibility and affordability that needed to make it into the episode so that’s what happened.

 

Episode 200 is coming up soon so make sure to get your clips in if you’re still listening to them for us. This will be the best episode yet, so hang onto your hats, nerds.

A lot happened in Magic. A good Pro Tour happened. A good Pro Tour documentary happened. A really terrible Pro Tour announcement happened. Cards spiked. Orders were cancelled. Casual formats went largely unnoticed. Players are out for blood. Who can help you navigate the crazy world of this card game? We can, that’s who.

This cast is full of info but Corbin still manages to waste a ton of time on inane and frankly pointless stories. The cast is picking up speed heading into episode 200 and looking to retool a bit after that. Want to help? Listen to some older episodes and help out. Here’s a list.

 

* Terrible story from Corbin

* How do we look at preview episode predictions in the intervening weeks?

* GP ABQ

* GPs are getting expensive!

* Scumbag story

* Commander 2016?

I’d like to go more in depth with the show notes, but literally we only talked about Modern bans. We did Pick of the Week early, but we didn’t want that out there too much because we didn’t want people shutting the podcast off after they extracted our tasty knowledge morsels. That’s why we put it at the end. This week we’re on the honor system so don’t make us regret it. Also, there isn’t much Marcel. So this is basically the perfect way to follow up the last episode being kind of late. I regret nothing.

 

* Marcel has to bounce

* Pick of the Week is early

* What will the bans and unbans do to Eldrazi?

* Is there a thopter sword deck imminent?

* Did anyone prerelease?

We are previewing our card! If you’re not a regular listener of the case, we threw our explanation and analysis of the card into the front of the episode so you don’t have to skip to the end. We want to make things convenient for you because we already counted your traffic. Whether you listen to all of it or 10 seconds, you count. Your money is in our pocket. Why not make things easier on you? You’re welcome. Enjoy the preview.

Regular listeners, this is a great episode and you’ll love the rest of the episode that isn’t the preview. Because we preview a card in the beginning. Because they let us.

* Brainstorm Brewery Shadows preview card!

* Corbin is here for part of it!

* What is the future of Modern? What gets banned?

* The new cycle of rare lands is discussed.

The gang is joined by resident 5th Host Ray Perez Jr. (@rayfuturepro) to talk about Modern, how much Ray doesn’t like Modern, what could get unbanned in Modern, what will get banned in Modern, which GPs and PT events Ray will go to if it means playing Modern and Modern. It felt like that was all we talked about but we did like 90 minutes on this one to make up for not having a show last week. Oh, and no Corbin, so that’s a bonus. We talked about him but it got dirty so that will likely end up on After Hours. Just listen to the episode already.

The gang is joined by Magic artist Aaron Miller (@aarondraws) to talk about the world of illustrating our wacky children’s card game. Ever wondered how Aaron got his start, how he fits into the community or where he has hidden squirrels on iconic Magic art? This is the episode for you. Are you going to feign being too cool to listen to the episode because you think art is for nerds? Shut up and listen, it’s still Brainstorm Brewery, get over yourself. You just might learn something. You might also want to support his Kickstarter campaign for custom tokens.

 

* Aaron Miller (@aarondraws) is our guest

* How did Aaron get his start?

* What is Magic art all about?

* I realize that above bullet point is vague. It’s a long discussion.

* Seriously, we didn’t transition to new topics as much as just riff for a while.

* No Pick of the week, we didn’t want to date the episode.

* His website is http://www.aaronbmiller.com/

* You can find our Goblin tokens on his site or on our site

* Help his Kickstarter get to 500 backers!
