233: Synergizing and Synthesizing MID - Episode 233 Oct 18, 2021

Show notes

This week we're returning to Ben's concept of Synergy Theory and looking at MID limited under that lens! Drafting "decks not cards" is harder than it sounds, so we're here to help by looking at cards interacting with mechanics, their own color, other colors, and their strategy compatibility.
