This week the guys break down all of the new decks and cards that were flung at SCG Columbus. Listen to us break down the weekend’s best decks and platers. Plus, Mike discusses the deck he took to a 22nd place finish. We also discuss a few community topics including the Riley Oberhart Memorial Tournament.

On this episode, we cover quite a bit of news and policy updates! So much, that we have to bring special guest Erik Aliff on to help! Some mysterious changes to hidden card error, some tweaks to looking at extra cards, and some exciting changes to deck decklist error! If you’re not excited about minor policy tweaks then honestly what can you be excited for?

We also cover some changes in the MTR, like the new “you can only pile shuffle at the start of a game” rule.

And we read a few policy related e-mails from listeners just like you are whom are you.

What have You Learned from Magic

Reid has learned, to be honest with himself and these around him. He has learned to not cut corners.

Shortcomings

Time management and deck building.

Daily Habits

Quality practice over quantity. Reid doesn't
