Since Cluze is on a boat and the only thing that happened was the SCG Players Championship, we grabbed Chris Lansdell to cover this week. He writes for SCG and he's generally entertaining, so what the heck. Also, SCG Worlds was confusing and bizarre on paper, though we're all pretty sure it made sense when it was live. Then there's a bit of news about new cards, new free cards, new random products, the continuing slow death of Legacy, and why people seem to hate the current Standard. All in all, it was a fun episode that contained zero Rogue One spoilers, and isn't that the most important thing?
