MTGCast

There were three big Modern events this weekend! And it looks like the format is relatively healthy, and that's awesome! After that, there's a smattering of little bits of news here and there followed by a tiny bit of science with Cluze. Watch out for giant Rikis fighting kaiju!

Straight Outta Paliano,

When I'm called off, I got some poison off

spread it around, and bodies are hauled off ...

Favorite Card

Capsize

What makes Magic: The Gathering fun for you?

The strategy and brain exercise.

Early Challenge

Deck building. Mono curves weren't at the top of Erik's mind.

Worst Magic Moment

SCG Open in 2012. Erik made Top 8. Lost in quarter finals. Erik made a huge mistake in game 2. He misconducted the game state and lost. Slow down and think through your plays.

Proudest Magic Moment

Top 8 at GP Los Angeles, hearing his name over the speakers felt amazing. It was very validating.

Best Format

Legacy

Entry Level Tips For Legacy

Play a deck with Force of Will. Ask to read you opponents card. If you don't understand it, counter it.

How to Effectively Prepare for a Big Event

Erik chose his deck early, a few months in advance.

What's in Your Tournament Bag

Clothes, Deck Box + Deck, Extra Cards, Toothbrush, Trail Mix Legion

Improvement Suggestions

Never be afraid to make mistakes and look foolish. Don't let your dreams be dreams.

Habits That Help You Improve

Playing Music.

Conspiracy theories abound this week!

Justin, Shawn, and I get out our tin foil hats on to dig into all the weeks happening.

First up! Elves wins the Invitational! What the heck is going on in Modern right now? The format is shaking up and someone at WoTC may have let the cat out of the bag......

......Bloodbraid Elf is currently legal on the Beta MODO client.

People are losing their minds! We discuss.

Next up, the whole of Conspiracy 2 "Wonderland Boogaloo" Take the Crown, has been spoiled so we dig into all our favorite cards and strategies for this one of a kind draft format.

Be sure to share your Conspiracy 2 draft stories with us! What was the coolest thing you got to do?

Stay tuned for more next week! It's our 1 year episode!

Flash's Theme by Queen from the Flash Gordon (Original Soundtrack)

In this episode we talk about my new legacy deck, card prices, and much more!

Check us out @cbc_cast

Hello and welcome to another episode of Rival's Duel. It's back to back set reviews as Conspiracy: Take the Crown has been (mostly) spoiled. The last Conspiracy set had lots of cool new cards for Commander and this set is no different. We also talk about some other products that has come out during our summer of weirdness, such as FtV: Lore (AKA: FtV: misnamed) and Duel Decks: Nissa vs. Ob Nixilis. Are we excited for the same cards you are from Conspiracy: Take the Crown? Give us a listen and let us know in the comments below.

 

Opening and News: We start our episode with Eric and Nole catching up on what has been released since our last episode, namely From the Vault (and the fact that, while the cards are good, is horribly misnamed) and the dual decks, which are full of pretty pictures. We also spend more time thinking about the movie Suicide Squad than most of its writing staff.

Main Topic- Conspiracy set review: Sorry folks, but nothing much to see here. No notes for reviews, just sit back and listen.
