    Violent Outburst Is BANNED (And Maybe Nothing Changes?)

    Violent Outburst Is BANNED (And Maybe Nothing Changes?)

    The new B&R announcement is verrrrrry interesting. Gerry Thompson and Dave Shiels talk about the specific cards, but also the announcement itself.

    Plus, both of them have tournaments this weekend to prep for.

    Dave’s RCQ T8 With Dimir Midrange

    Dave’s RCQ T8 With Dimir Midrange

    Dave finally broke his RCQ curse and cruised to the Top 8 with Standard Dimir Midrange. He loved the deck, but hated one of Gerry’s favorite cards. He shares his matchups, what he’d change going forward, and whether or not he’d run it back.

    Plus, Gerry has SCG Philly this weekend, which means he’s thinking about Modern. This time, it means getting brain wormed by a deck that is currently .1% of the Modern metagame. Surely this will end well…

    Everything About Magic Con Chicago

    Everything About Magic Con Chicago

    Gerry and Dave break down everything from MC Chicago, including the Pioneer Pro Tour and Standard 75K! Is a new deck enough to sway their opinion on Pioneer? Does Vampires even count as "new?"

    Plus, how do the wild Standard results affect Dave's RCQ aspirations? Is he going to become a Splendid Reclamation gamer?

    Gerry And Matt Both Won RCQs!

    Gerry And Matt Both Won RCQs!

    While Dave was busy acclimating back to normal life, Gerry and Matt were putting in work — Both of them won RCQs, and so did Dave’s brother Brian! To top it off, all three of them did it with different decks.

    Hear about how Gerry ended up on Boros Convoke, how Matt may have ruined Standard with Azorius Control, and what their recommendations are going forward.

    Why Gerry And Dave Couldn’t Win A Match At The RC

    Why Gerry And Dave Couldn’t Win A Match At The RC

    Why is Magic so hard? Gerry and Dave went to the Regional Championship in Denver, but neither won a match! Hear about their deck of choice, what happened, and whether they’d do it all over again.

    Plus, they talk Standard for the remaining RCQs.

    Did SCG Hartford Just Completely Warp RC Denver?

    Did SCG Hartford Just Completely Warp RC Denver?

    If there's a big tournament in Hartford, Matt Costa will be there. He'll also be here to tell you about his weekend playing Golgari Yawgmoth in both events. In the meantime, Dave might be putting down Indomitable Creativity for the time being.

    Another friend of the show, Adam Snook, took Grixis Death's Shadow into Sunday's Top 8 and he might have converted his friends. We talk all things Death's Shadow, but then Matt brain wormed us toward the end. RC Denver is next weekend and now we're all in danger.

Raw honest magic

Two great hosts, no compromises

jamieishuman ,

A refreshingly honest MTG podcast

Bryan and Gerry dive into their weekly thoughts on the state of the formats of Magic. They disseminate the weekly fluctuation on best performing decks, as well as next level sideboard tech to approach the meta with.

You would be doing yourself a service by plugging in to the cast each week!

great mtg strategy content

really enjoy this insightful mtg strategy podcast - I even listen to the episodes on modern despite mainly playing modern since the strategy breakdowns are so insightful. A great place for measured, balanced takes - when Cedric Phillips isn’t on! :P
