Aaron was able to find enough time to get out a quick meta discussion of what he expects the top 6 decks to be at NAIC and where his thoughts are for this massive event (over 3200 players in Masters alone).

He spends time going over informational items of when the stream is, side events schedule, and where to find him at NAIC this week.

He lastly thanks everyone that is signed up for the new Patreon and reminder of the Season 2 League Challenge Conquest format.

In this special announcement episode we are announcing our Conquest League for Season 2. It will be contested in PTCGL or Webcam but is very unique where you submit 3 decks! Contestants will have to win at least once with each of their decks to gain entry into top cut. We can't wait to get this rolling June 10th.

We have also taken down our old Patreon and created a new way to help support the show. All Tiers will help with getting prizing for our bi-monthly giveaways and tournament winnings.
