242: Enter the Arena Sep 12, 2017

Show notes

On this episode, Maria and Meghan give their first impressions of that new digital Magic hotness: Arena. What do they think of the new platform? What could be improved? What rocks their socks off? ALSO: Meghan Top 8’s *another* PPTQ (she’s got those things on lock) with her Modern Promise Titan deck, Iconic Masters looks like a treat-and-a-half to draft, and epic Ixalan preview cards keep on comin’! SPECIAL BONUS: Find out what mascots Maria and Meghan had in college. FUN FACTS!

Editor’s Note: We had some technical issues in this week’s episode (and we still don’t know WHY they happened) so a bit of Meghan’s Modern PPTQ talk is cut off at the beginning. Don’t fret! We had her record a new intro for the piece. Unfortunately, this means no video of this week’s episode as well. We’ll be back in full force next week!

On this episode, Maria and Meghan say “ahoy!” to Ixalan! They hit the high seas with preview cards galore, as they dish on the shiny new mechanics of the set. Just how good will Explore be? And how do we all feel that Raid is back?

MtA Episode 240: New Pros on the Block Aug 29, 2017

Show notes

On this episode, Maria and Meghan invite their playgroup to the show. Why? Because THREE of them have just qualified for the Pro Tour!! (That’s right, they hang with pretty good Magic players, y’all). Does it feel like qualifying for the Pro Tour is impossible? Listen in as Matt, Greg, and Sam talk about their roads to qualification and how a dream that once felt like it was a million miles away came true. Learn what you can do to increase your chances of qualifying – and hear lots of funny stories about what happened along the way. PLUS: the crew talks spicy new Ixalan preview cards! Pirates and dinosaurs and vampires, oh my!

239: The Command Zone Aug 22, 2017

Show notes

On this episode, Maria and Meghan record the show from a SUPER SECRET LOCATION! Okay, Okay. It’s not that secret at all. It’s the Command Zone headquarters! Our intrepid hosts are joined by Commander-in-Chiefs Jimmy Wong and Josh Lee Kwai to chat about Commander 2017, building with Cat-manders, and all sorts of randomness. WARNING: this show goes off the rails (in the best way possible). PLUS: Grand Prix Denver recap, Ixalan Predixalans, and…if you have an Alexa…you may want to unplug her. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
