MTG Grindcast

Our friends can't stop crushing these team events! Lucas Michaels, Jeremy Henry, and William Lo come hang out on the cast this week to talk about what it's like to win a team open while not wearing jerseys. Come join us!

Jon Rosum, Julian John, and Kevin King crushed the team open this past weekend and dropped by to hang out! This episode's got a little bit of everything, from missed triggers to mardu vehicles and even some inside information on dueling Marit Lages. Come hang out!

Oh no! All those cards in our standard decks got banned. Today Chris and Collins take a look at those bans and how the new standard format just might play out. Plus, we've been jamming the new limited format in preparation for some upcoming Grand Prix and we share what we've learned.

Our first ever full set review! Get a drink, fix yourself a snack, and put in your comfiest earbuds because this episode is a 3 hour monster. We go over every card we think will have a constructed impact and a bunch that...probably won't. Are merfolk real? Arrrrr the pirates seaworthy? Find out here!

New year, new episode! With the December lull finally over it's time to talk Modern in preparation for SCG Columbus. Plus, Rivals of Ixalan is looking spicier than expected, so join us for some hot takes on the spoilers so far. Finally, is Standard dead? Starcity Games seems to think so, so we throw in our two cents.

After a couple of rad guests, CCR and Collins return to their roots: chatting about the Magical ideas that have been buzzing around their heads lately. This week: have you noticed that you play looser when you're ahead? That's percentage points that are ripe to be regained. We talk about how to do that: how to think about the game when you're ahead and how to start improving your decisions. Plus, some other Magic theory may or may not creep in at the edges. Come hang out!

We're back this week with a pleasantly accented guest! Stephen Murray's played in nearly every World Magic Cup and has top 8'd twice but, most importantly, has held the title of Scottish National Champion for over a decade. He's here to fill us in on tournament prep, team ratings (spoiler, Japan is a Crush of Wurms) and playing Magic in Europe. Find more of him at @jechtmurray!

Thanks as always to Wave Sunray for our music!

Collins and Chris have known Rio for a minute, but this weekend he stepped into the limelight by becoming the youngest person to ever top 8 a Starcity Invitational! We spend this episode chatting with him about the tournament, what a 13-year-old does with 3 grand (hint, it includes buying more magic cards), and where he's going from here. Come hang out!

Collins is all prepped for the invitational! We go over his updates to modern humans (wait, is that a spoiler) as well as the strategy he's banking on to break the Temur mirror. Come hang out!

Modern episode! Ok, Collins's team made top 8 with him playing standard so we can't help talking about that for a little while, but the invitational's coming up so modern is back on the table. The meta's making some interesting shifts and reacting to humans, so we talk about where we want to be, and even philosophize a little about ways to be a good modern player. Plus! Black dinosaurs and multicolored fliplands: Rivals of Ixalan spoilers are starting!
