This week, Brian and Chris are left alone to tell you the story of the first Phyrexian invasion, the one detailed in the Invasion block of sets and the Invasion novels: the end of Urza Planeswalker, the end of Yawgmoth, the beginning of Phyrexia's long, slow crawl back to Dominaria's shores in Dominaria United.

Once upon a time, long ago, a man used a powerful artifact to lay waste to an opposing army and most life on an entire continent. He then went on to be even worse. This week we're telling the story of Urza from the sylex blast to the beginning of the Weatherlight Saga. As they say, if it wasn't for Yawgmoth, Urza would be the greatest villain in Dominarian history...

This week we're joined by the one and only Amanda Stevens, an expert in all things Zhalfir, to talk Jamuraa, Teferi, and all the mistakes made by wizards and Wizards that's left this slice of Dominaria out of the story for decades.

You can find Amanda on Twitter at @AmandaTNStevens for more of her insight into DEI, Esports, and building Simic commander decks!

While it's one of the hottest summers on record, we're keeping it cool by talking all about The Ice Age, one of the lesser known periods in Magic's history. From the moment Urza detonates a magical nuke to well after one of his descendants smashes a mirror on some task mage's head, we discuss the thousands of years of history that got Dominaria from The Brothers' War to the plane as we mostly know it still today.

This week, the original Vorthos Cast crew has come together with storied Dominarian historian Ethan Fleischer to talk all about the complete history of Dominaria in lore. Not all the lore of Dominaria, but the lore of the lore of Dominaria. We're talking short story collections, licensed video game player guides, magazine articles, and even flash animations you'll never get to see again. A truly can't-miss discussion for any fan of Magic's story.

Dominaria served as the setting of almost all of Magic's earliest lore, and we're going to cover a lot of the Time of Legends in this week's episode! Jay, Loreley, and Chris talk the Armada comics, the Legends Cycle books, and some of the weirdest legendary creatures you might have missed in the Legends set.
