After a brief hiatus Ashlyn and Cam return for a brief discussion of the stack, that elusive mechanical control of priority. We open a pack to add to our Hour of devastation deck and other wise just enjoy ourselves.

Ashlyn seems to be getting the hang of things. Cam is probably getting worse.

The Day of Black Sun approaches! Cluze will tell you how to survive this momentous occasion! But first there's a lot of Modern to talk about! And a bit of Standard. And we have to get Cluze to read a bunch of Commander 2017 cards that he's never seen before. And there's some other stuff too. Mostly Modern though.

Figuring out what his opponent had and then what to do with the information. His test group was key in helping him overcome and learn.

Simon has hone analytical skills and applied that else where.
