Vine booms entering your ears in 3...2...1....

Siblings in cardboard and Blood tokens are a back for some more Vibe Checks. Cole and Empress Quinn talk Shuffle Up and Play, Vibe Checks from friends, Quinn's continued Dragonhawk obsession, more MTGO nonsense, and rounds it out with a ramble-y soapbox.

In order to gain knowledge, you must draw cards. In order to thrive, you must have resources. In order to survive, you must turn to lichdom.

Wait that's a bit of a leap. Let's backtrack a bit.

Fitz, aka MrFitzyFitz is here this episode to talk all things NOT related to the bans and the last week of events (we're not here for that) and instead talk about dismantling decks, drawing a f**kton of cards, taking matters into your own hands when it comes to themed decks, and agreeing that cats are cute af.

You're on your way to see Jurassic Park for the first time, and the person guiding the tour has told you to put your seatbelts on. The belts tighten around you, and the tour guide turns with their heart shaped glasses.

This isn't Jurassic Park. This is a Powerpoint presentation on Sol Ring.

Lyght (@ThePhiRexian), THE Sol Ring Contrarian, joins us this episode to talk Monster Hunter, Transformers comics, #IndominusPosting and the nuances of card choices, and how you don't have to play Sol Ring, Arcane Signet or Command Tower! (It's a bad feature!)
