Seb and Svante have a chat with Emil about how he took down the trophy in Arvika this year with his Erhnamgeddon deck.

In this episode Anton and Seb are joined by Danny de Rooij and Martin Berlin. Danny gets interrupted alot while he walks us through some Alliances cards being played in his “Bless the Future” deck.We also have Martin Berlin on where he answers the listeners questions about banning Tide and what we might expect from banning/unbanning cards in the FUTURE.

Anton have a chat with “Dr Siuss” about Replenish after the ban of Parallax Tide.

Seb and Anton have a chat with Patrick McElligott about the newest Storm deck in Premodern: Snap Cradle Pop. How much mana can you make with Snap, Gaea’s Cradle, Crop Rotation and Temporal Fissure?!

Seb is out! Never to be seen or heard of again!? Thankfully we have Anton that can pick up the reins. He is joined by no other than Martin Berlin in this END OF THE YEAR REVIEW. And who will pick upp the mantle from Åland that we haven’t heard or seen since he started to venture deep into Finland on his journey to find the real Santa… well, THANK GOD we have Svante! So there it is:

First part is a bit about PM coming to MTGO (i.e. MODO).
Second part is about PM in general, the state of the format, upcoming bans!? Unbans!? Let us pry that Berlin brain right open and get to the jist of it all.
Third part is OS. We might seem unenthusiastic at this point but mainly we just run out of time and brush over it on some points. MORE TO COME SURELY 2026.

We put together a short tribute episode in memory of The Ultimate Platypus, our dear friend Jens Jaeger. We wanted to honor his life, his kindness, and the unforgettable impact he had on all of us. Seb and Anton have a brief chat with Chris about the sad passing of our dear friend Jens.

Those who wanted to share a short message—whether it was a thank you, a memory, or just a few words—were warmly invited to record or write something and we included these messages in the episode as a way for everyone who loved Jens to express their appreciation and say goodbye.

Let’s remember the incredible person he was.
