Nikša went to the Prerelase, and Igor had his spirit crushed under Warstorm Surge.

Because of all of that, Durdles have to go to chill out, and off we go to Dominaria, around the Coldsnap era!

We chill with all the legendaries from that set and discuss their application.

Also, screw Arcum.

Kessler and Ben go through the newly released Eternal Masters to see which cards printed in the set would, if reprinted in Modern, offer the most fun changes to the format. They use diversity, impact, and power level balance to determine if they can be reprinted through Standard, or if the cards could be fun if printed into Modern with some other method. And yes, Kessler picks a card he shouldn’t have.
