The My Guys crew switch gears into standard in preparation for the RCQ season and upcoming RCs. They chat about the worlds meta and their surprise by dimir's significant underrepresentation. They close with their picks for the standard season ... and how baby oil ruined hip hop culture.

Pete is back from California refreshed and prepped to talk about the recent bans and Avatar: The Last Airbender. The guys share their thoughts on the bans and how standard will progress. They also provide their top picks from the Avatar set which prereleases this week!

My Guys had the opportunity to pick the brain of its special guest: Ivan Espinosa. Although the crew was without Pete (who was sorely missed), Ivan was able to share his origin story, meta thoughts, and opinions for the upcoming Vegas RC. He also provided nuanced discussion on the development of jeskai blink and other up-and-comers in the modern meta.

Joe and Pete discuss the continual shifts in the modern and standard metagames across recent major events. The recent RC and challenge results show that modern remains healthy and agile. Although Vivi still represents an extremely disproportionate amount of the winner's meta, the Baltimore spotlight was taken down by Leyline Red.

The My Guys crew have the great pleasure of hosting the RC Houston Champion, Vinnie Fino! They discuss Vinnie's contagious laughter, cheerful personality, and what really matters about the game: having fun. Vinnie also provides some insights about Jeskai Blink and its place in the ever-changing modern meta.

Joe and Pete continue with introductions. Eternal weekend is in the books with more events on the horizon. The meta data for standard and modern showed slow, but continous change. The cast members discussed their views on modern as competitors around the country get ready for RC Houston.
