Welcome back Pauper fam! This week we invite our friend and Limited crusher Sam Snodgrass onto the show. Known as snodz on MTGO, Sam has consistently been at the top of the draft trophy leaderboard for the better part of a year and had a deep run at the 3rd Common Ground Cup finishing in the Top 4 at his first Pauper event! We dive into some lessons to be learned from Limited fundamentals, some stories from his run in the Cup, and meander into an insightful discussion on mindset. Thank you as always for listening!
