[Video] Is Lack of Impact on Eternal Formats Better?
Zac and Phil discuss their disappointment with the Bloomberg set and its lack of impact on eternal formats. They feel that the set is focused on flavor and commander playability rather than providing cards for competitive formats. They express frustration with the power level of recent legacy cards, particularly in black, and the lack of balance in the format. They also discuss the upcoming ban announcement and their hopes for significant changes to address the format's problems. Overall, they feel that the set does not offer much to talk about and does not improve the state of the game.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Disappointment with the Bloomberg Set01:50 Power Level Issues in Legacy05:09 Flavor vs Mechanics in Set Design07:47 Hopes for Significant Changes in the Ban Announcement10:38 Lack of Impact on Eternal FormatsJOIN US ON DISCORD: https://discord.gg/hrC7PxQZTE

Customer Reviews
This podcast got me into Legacy
Knowledgeable hosts. Dope raps. These guys are rad. I listened to every episode for years even though playing Legacy seemed out of reach for me. Highly entertaining and insightful advice that will make you a better Magic player no matter what formats you play. After hearing how diverse Legacy is currently and how rough Modern was during the Scam days I made the switch. I love Legacy more than anything else in MTG. Thanks for creating this amazing content!
the ads tho…
I feel viscerally violated by the frequency and timing of the ads…it’s hard to even focus on the podcast topic due to the jarring interjections that are nothing but inane expressions of consumerism. Bordering on dystopian.
Fall from grace
I used to adore this show, following for several years. Used to be as good as Tusk Talk or LaL.
Now they’ve way overleveraged their advertising time and is the single most ad-stuffed podcast I listen to, even counting non-mtg.
It’s pretty unpleasant now. Used to
Be wonderful.
