Season 13, Episode 18: Modern State of the Format (March-April 2022)
Hello spike rogues,
Today on Faithless Brewing we are responding to one of the most common questions we got during our last mailbag episode: “How can I get started in Modern?” or “How can I get back into Modern after a break?"
This episode is intended to be a resource not only for new and returning Modern players, but also for anyone seeking a broader understanding of the best decks after the ban of Lurrus of the Dream-Den.
Our goal is to provide a clear idea of the strategies the most popular decks are employing, the key cards they utilize, and (more importantly for our beloved spike rogues) how to play around them. We cover a dozen tier 1 Modern decks and give our best matchup and sideboarding advice for tackling the meta in 2022.
So, is it possible to get back into the loop after being away from it? We are sure it is, and hope this format guide is a stepping stone for anyone that needs it.
Happy brewing!

Season 13, Episode 17: Weekly Roundup + Flashback (Transmogrify, Séance, Commune with Spirits)
Last week's Arena economy stream turned out to be a big nothing burger. But they did confirm that a true-to-tabletop non-rotating format is in the works. Will "Pioneer lite" be enough to pull holdouts onto the platform? That all depends on the next announcement in the pipeline, regarding the future of organized play. Dan and David lay out their hopes and fears for what we'd like to see.
On the Flashback, we review our testing results with four different decks in Modern and Pioneer: Temur Transmogrify with Careful Cultivation and Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant; Grixis Reanimator Transmogrify with The Modern Age and Fable of the Mirror-Breaker; 80-card Boros Seance; and Selesnya Enchantress with Mana Bloom.

Fable of the Mirror-Breaker has exploded from nothing to multi-format all star in just two weeks. Fable is dominating Pioneer and has even notched a handful of Modern trophies, in about a dozen different styles of deck. What are the best ways to build aggro, control, and combo decks with the new Kiki-Jiki Saga?
