I talk to Andrew about his experience at the first ever Mythic Championship and his 48-hour binge into trying to qualify for the Mythic Invitational on Arena. Andrew then shares his thoughts on where the two decks from the MC finals are headed -- Mono U and Esper Control.

We're also going to be giving away the Autumn Burchett winning 75-card list from the Mythic Championship to a lucky listener. Just follow us on twitter, "like" episode 27 on our twitter page, and comment the word that Andrew is requesting onto the episode.

You'll just have to listen to find out what that word is :)

Pete Ingram joins The Crew!

The Crew discusses their Top-8 cards from Ravnica Allegiance. While some cards are certainly agreed upon, our lists came out very different. Who do you think got it right?

This episode was recorded on 1/15, prior to going live on MTGO and MTGA. It will be interesting to see who's off to a hot start after RNA went live this past weekend and who may be right going into the first IRL weekend coming up.

Additionally, check out Pete's new cast!
