July 20, 2020 Episode 118 - Ask Us Anything About Zelda and Breath of the Wild 2
Another week, another episode where we know not a single thing more about Breath of the Wild 2 than we did last year. That's okay though, since we did what we do best here on the Champions' Cast: speculate! This week, we asked everyone to head over to Facebook and ask a Zelda question to get a Zelda answer, and you delivered big time!

We had tons of questions to answer, including what would we undo in the Zelda series, what new mechanics Breath of the Wild 2 could introduce, what Zelda game do we think is overrated, do we think we'll ever see the Picori again, how important is lore in a Zelda game to us, and what franchise we think Nintendo values more, Mario or Zelda?

These are just some of the great question, so come hang out with us and have some laughs!

July 13, 2020 Episode 117 - Remembering Our Favorite Stealth Segments in the Zelda Series
Metal Gear!? To hear those words uttered in a Zelda game would give me no end of joy, but then, I'm a big fan of stealthy games and Tactical Espionage Action. But after kicking around the idea, I realized that Zelda has a plethora of stealthy sections spread out in the series for us to dissect and discuss. Come hang with us as we talk Gerudo Valley, Silent Realms, the Yiga Clan Hideout, the Forsaken Fortress, and more as we offer our two cents of most of the stealth segments currently available in Zelda.
Plus, weigh in on a side bar we found ourselves discussing on the show - is Master Kohga is major letdown of a character? What do you think?
All this and more, PLUS, head over to this post right here and ask us a question for net week's show! You can only ask questions on Facebook, so make sure to give us a like and drop a Q in the comments!

July 05, 2020 Episode 116 - Discussing the Best (and Worst!) Intro Dungeons in the Series
The Intro Dungeon: a games first dungeon that acts both as a tutorial as to how the rest of the game plays, and as a standalone experience. That's our definition anyways, so with that in mind, the gang discuss the 5 best intro dungeons in the series and give some honorable mentions to strong opening "areas". We also shoot on the worst intro sections (no points for guessing mine) and what made them so lackluster.
Come have fun as Corey returns to the show by popular demand!

June 29, 2020 Episode 115 - Going Over Zelda Dungeon's Top 50 Dungeons List
We recently undertook a mammoth task here at the site and polled 30 different staff members to gauge their favorite dungeons in the Zelda series. We then took all that data and made one overall list, with the dungeons that finished highest on most peoples lists getting pints that determined their placement on our master list. We finally revealed all 50 dungeons on that list, and the gang are here to give you their thoughts on the placements and what dungeons were the biggest snubs.
This is a long one, so strap in, and make sure to check out the Top 50 Dungeons article in it's entirety here!

Make sure you're listening next week as we'll have an exciting announcement!

June 23, 2020 Episode 114 - Reviewing A List of Proposed Changes in Breath of the Wild 2
A couple months ago, the Zelda Dungeon writing team put their collective heads together to think of some specific in-depth changes they wanted to see take place from Breath of the Wild to its sequel. This week on the show, we go over the list of suggested changes and weight in on what we'd like to see! Recipe Books? A customizable base? Some forgeable weapons? More exuberant music? Underwater travel? A LINK THAT CAN TALK?!
All this and more explored this week, as the gang are joined by Tony Harris, aka Lorule Legend!

June 16, 2020 Episode 113 - Phantom Hourglass: A Retrospective
Live from Linktober's Zelda Creators Con comes an episode two years in the making - a Phantom Hourglass retrospective! Andy finally replayed Link's DS adventure for the first time in ten years and shares his thoughts with Alasyn and Mases, two big fans of the game. Is this the first bad Zelda game? What are our thoughts on Temple of the Ocean King? Do the controls kill the game for newbies? Does this game have some of the best items in the series? What do we think of Linebeck and Ciela? Does Phantom Hourglass manage to escape the shadow of The Wind Waker? All this and so much more!
