Mana On the Rocks

One of the rarely talked about aspects of Cedh and Tedh is the way a given event is structured. Is it 75 or 90 minutes? Additional turns? Byes? The inevitable heat death of the universe? Well maybe not that one but, join Atlas and Joe for a drink as we talk about how these things affect your tournament experience.

Cedh? Haven't heard that name in years...

For a lot of us in the trenches of Cedh it can be hard to remember where we all came from. Those early high power days have given way to fruitless stack battles over a Thoracle trigger, killing the stax piece and not winning and wheel pass. Today Atlas and Joe are joined by Kristian a newly minted Cedh player as we talk about what it's like to start fresh in cedh. So come on down and get a drink with us.

Gaslight, Gatekeep, Untap, Upkeep, Draw.

After 1000's of years the prophecy has finally been fulfilled. Mana On the Rocks discuss Cedh Politics. Atlas and Joe sit down and talk about how politics is an underutilized tool at the Cedh table and break down scenario's and tips and tricks one can use to help up their own personal game and the entire tables game.

New brews, same hot takes.

James' decklist: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/rrx5rvH8ZEauBVpSdUlbUg

A spicy Blue/Red storm deck, just like Mom always made. In this weeks installment of Local Brews Atlas and Joe bring on James to talk about his spicy Izzet deck: Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph. An off the walls take on the classic Izzet storm deck that is sure to give any Krarkashima player a run for their money. Or at least offer a safe haven from flipping coins.

Come one come all to the Tournament of Champions! Competitors come from around the globe to prove just how Cedh they are and see how they fair in the arena of wits and cardboard slinging. Test your might and mettle against *checks notes* Blue farm... Well that's a bit of a letdown. We were really hoping for something more splashy and interesting, but I suppose Ole' Faithful is good enough. But hey, if you wanna really make it far in this here tournament arc that's just what it takes. Atlas and Joe are joined by the previous champion of Gabis OCCS Jayden were talk all about tournaments. What it takes to win them, maintaining oneself in the midst of one and a couple of tips and tricks along the way. So come on down and grab a drink with us!

You see it too right? And it's gone, wait no its back again, scratch that it's gone once more. It looks like a giant cat with several spiked tails and it seems to be blinking in and out of reality but I couldn't get a good look at it. Maybe those two guys from Mana on the Rocks know a thing or two about this creature. I hear between their mid takes they specialize in the theoretical art of Schrodinger's worst acid trip made manifest. The only catch is they will only dispense their knowledge if you have a drink with them. Bottoms up.

With so many new cards coming out these days, the main question on everyone's mind is how relevant are these new cards in today's game. With the bar to enter set so high already do battles have a place in Cedh? Can we break some new toys? Will we ever stop casting thoracle? Will Blue Farm stop being cringe? Come on down and have a drink with Atlas and Joe as we discuss cards from the new set and some old classics.

Hey do you see something outside the window? I can't quite make it out, it looks like the Mana on the Rocks boys, but I'm not sure. Maybe if we jam this Thoracle-Consult at the worst possible time for us it will draw whoever it could be out of hiding. Yeah right now while we are under the threat of the unknown is absolutely the right time to go for it. On today's episode Atlas and Joe talk about when the right time to strike is. What does that window of opportunity look like and how to handle both winning and losing to make you a better player.

We here at Mana On the Rocks are fans of the eclectic, the atypical, the odd and of course, the spicy. As fans of such unusual taste we thought it best to provide a spotlight to our communities Local Brew-masters and their unique approaches when it comes to deck construction in Cedh. The first on tap is a very different Rakdos brew by none other than our very own: Joe. Join Atlas as he dissects Joe's pet deck Chainer, Nightmare Adept.
