Hi guys!

Another new episode for you, they're coming thick and fast now! We've switched technologies recently to reduce turnaround time on episodes and we hope it's working well.

Today David and Calum join you to discuss the new standard format in depth, starting with the role of control decks. We also start the first of a five part special report on the nature of each colour in todays magic compared to what they were when the game was first made a decade and a half ago. Today: Green!

Thanks for listening everyone, we love having you as listeners.

Hi guys,

Thanks for being patient for the few weeks while work/college/zendikar has taken over our lives and we had to miss a few episodes. Carl and Calum are back this week with a discussion about Zendikar, the prerelease, the new standard format and the rising price of Magic.
