In this episode, Gerry and Dave kinda cover it all. There's the Apex Gaming team event this weekend, Dave's RCQ excursion with Jeskai Control, and their recent foray into limited, including comparing Bloomburrow to original Mirrodin.

There's not much to talk about regarding Pioneer or Modern, so I guess that leaves Standard (and a little bit of limited!). Gerry and Dave go over the most recent Magic Online results, including more than a few surprises and maybe a sleeper hit out of the new set.

Gerry made a nice list of 40 exciting Bloomburrow cards to talk about, but Dave wanted to talk about Jeskai. And let's be honest, so did Gerry. Given Dave's 75% win rate in Baltimore, there's plenty to gush about.

Gerry and Dave talk Modern ahead of SCG Baltimore and how they're leaning. If you ever wanted to listen to two boomer control sages discuss the merits of playing 1 Spell Snare or 2 Spell Snare for an hour, this is the episode for you.

The Pro Tour Modern Horizons 3 metagame was released, so Gerry and Dave dug in. Is Gerry buying the Nadu hype?

Since new Modern is well underway, there isn't much point to continuing the set review in a traditional manner. Instead, Gerry and Dave take a look at the most recent decklists from Magic Online and discuss the cards they were planning to talk about as they show up.
