While Dave was on vacation, Gerry was rekindling his love for green cards.

Making Up For Lost Time Oct 01, 2023

Show notes

They missed last week, so Gerry and Dave are back this week with a MASSIVE episode! Why Gerry skipped Vegas, some WOE limited, Worlds results, Modern metagame updates, upcoming tournaments, which Standard cards to buy, and... relationship advice? Since Gerry explicitly said people shouldn't read his early writing, Dave made sure to dig up his first article for SCG.

Modern After Wilds Of Eldraine Sep 13, 2023

Show notes

Omnath won a massive Modern tournament online this weekend sporting an equally massive maindeck of 75 cards. Thanks to Up in the Beanstalk, we've returned to the discourse about playing more than 60 cards in Modern's favorite midrange pile.

Dave Made Top Cut With Creativity! Sep 07, 2023

Show notes

Dave crushed Columbus so hard that even Gerry is an Indomitable Creativity main now. They both recap their weekends before going deep on Modern's former boogeyman, pointing out why it's great right now and where it should go moving forward.

Picking Our Modern Decks For Columbus Aug 30, 2023

Show notes

Columbus is this weekend and neither Gerry nor Dave have locked in their Modern decks. Gerry has been grinding leagues to no avail while Dave was busy with having a life, so now they're both in trouble...

The Adventures Of GerryT And Omnath Aug 24, 2023

Show notes

Gerry spent the weekend in North Carolina playing Modern and he's got a lot to say about it. He crushed the first day, but failed to make Top 8. Is Omnath worth running back? Plus, some very bad Pioneer ideas.
