Standard RCQ season is about to begin! Gerry and Dave have been trying all the decks out there and are ready to break down the pros and cons of each. 

But first, Dave has some updates for Indomitable Creativity in Modern. It's not getting much attention, but maybe it should?

Pro Tour Outlaws Of Thunder Junction Review

When they recorded this episode, the metagame breakdown for Pro Tour Outlaws of Thunder Junction had just been posted. Since Gerry hadn’t seen it yet, Dave decided to have a little fun with him…

Maybe these sorts of predictions were why Gerry usually did poorly in Pro Tours.

Dave Makes Gerry Predict The Pro Tour Metagame

Dave is back from family vacation and it's time to catch him up on what he missed. How strong is Lost Jitte in Standard? Are Birds (Aven Interrupter and Slickshot Show-Off) about to take over? Is Duelist of the Mind actually mid in Standard?

The Big Score, With Matt Costa

They've done 40 episodes without ever talking about preview cards, but that ends now! Gerry forces Dave to evaluate cards he's never seen before and certainly has never played with. Unsurprisingly, Dave is quite good at it.
