Mike pulls in another 4-0 this week at meet up and the pals discuss old decks, new decks and dive somewhat deep on what they hate about certain decks. Also some mild gearing up for the $1K coming in a couple weeks!

LOVE, SPIKE COLONY

Lanny and Mike catch up after over a month of not podding together! We chat the tournament spree, new tech, and everything in between. This was recorded on 2/3 - congrats to Bryn for winning the 1K at SCG Con Hartford! We'll be back on the mostly weekly schedule now that I'm home.

The Premodern master of burn joins Michael J to talk about all the hot decks right now including burn and Aaron's spicy new old UB Psychanought. They also talk PSS4, Lobstercon '22, and other fun premodern memories!

LOVE SPIKE COLONY! in fact, love spike colony so much that this week will be a double episode drop <3

BK joins Spike Colony once again! This time to fill in for Lanny as scheduling the past few weeks has been very difficult. Mike and BK discuss all the excitement following a triple header weekend of live mid-sized swiss Premodern tournaments across the country. There's also some good old reminiscin' and plenty of other off-topic banter you've repeatedly shared with me doesn't bother you at all, and in fact you want more of!

LOVE, SPIKE COLONY

Mike and Lanny catch up on 3 weeks of missed action as they have spent more time in person than in podcast. More tier list debate as basic mountain strategies heat up after recent results from the Misty Mountain winter finals and another good showing for Mike with burn at locals. Mike attempts to prove overload is bad in the least effective way possible.

Mike and Lanny play decks they love this week as they bring Burn and GAT to the most recent meetup. They also cover MenguElves, Oathpauloosh and other deck ideas that have cropped up this week.

This week, Mike and Lanny dive deep into play style and what Lanny believes to be the current top decks in the format (you can find the tier list here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XYUnWiWgz4Sjyvi8qVU_ajBwBnvPuzVtedw3Jeh5-YU/edit?usp=sharing).

Mike and Lanny turn their focus back fully on Premodern and discuss the exciting decks succeeding in both the Fall Brawl and Dutch Nationals.

Sorry for the inconsistent audio! in-person records are always a little finicky.

Mike and Lanny scrub out an RCQ and reflect on when to be bloodthirsty, more heavy burn talk, oath of druids being bullshit, Lanny going 2-6 with oath of druids across two online events, a little enchantress, pro tour history, and your regularly programmed wildly off-topic nonsense. LOVE SPIKE COLONY

Rough time codes:

0:00-57:00 Bloodthirst and burn talk

57:00 - oath of druids is bullshit

1:15:00 - enchantress

1:28:00 - why do you hate ritual hippie

1:54:00 - Hubris in deckbuilding

2:28:00 - coaching/learning
