Magic The Flavouring

The first ever Standard Legal Universes Beyond set takes on the many worlds of Final Fantasy. With many in-game and real world card games already associated with this IP, can the guys guess the flavour of the cards correctly, drawing from minimal prior FF knowledge? Also Andy and Nathan talk about their previous experience (if any) with this truly epic game series. Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

The guys celebrate a milestone of 151 episodes of the pod, and what better way to do so than to talk about Andy and Nathan's 2nd favourite fandom, Pokémon! The guys look at the Gen 1 Gym Leaders and their teams, and decide to beat WOTC at their own game by creating a Universes Beyond style mash up.Thank you to all our listeners for being here, it means everything!Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

Has MTG moved away from the concept of truly evil factions in favour of more abstract villains and grey morality spectrums? The guys take a look at the new Siege cycle of cards from Tarkir: Dragonstorm as a case study and discuss how the concept of the "Bad Guy" has changed in magic narrative and gameplay. Also Andy and Nathan go back across recent lore history and inadvertently justify the actions of some pretty evil characters to prove their point...Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

Black isn't the only colour that dabbles in the art of Necromancy. Magic proves once again that its Colour Pie is one of the richest veins of Lore in all of fantasy, as each colour has its own brand of life/death spells. Andy and Nathan work through the WUBRG to discuss how these themes are expressed and the metaphysics of what actually counts as resurrection. Also Andy hates on Doctor Who again...Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

It's the end of the Dragonstorm arc and we are once again back on the fan favourite Plane of Tarkir! But how have things changed since the Dragon Lords were overthrown and will we finally uncover Jace's master plan to save the Multiverse? Andy and Nathan talk through the latest MTG story and how Planes and characters have evolved and potentially regressed. Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

After the Amonkheti crossed the finish line to claim this year's Ghirapur Grand Prix title, who will be in the running for next year's prize? And which Planes will have the honour of hosting? Andy and Nathan take a look at Vehicles throughout Magic's history through this thought experiment and create their own racing teams ready for a podium finish.Also the guys shout at each other about Brackets in EDH, because discourse!Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

START YOUR ENGINES! The denizens of the Multiverse are about to witness the most high octane event in its history, as K. Arsenault Rivera takes the wheel of the latest Magic story.

Another year of Magic and what a year it was! With a tonal shift to the flavour unlike anything seen before, there is certainly a lot to go over. Andy and Nathan go set by set to relive some the highs and lows of 2024 as well as picking their favourite art and artists of the year.Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

Magic Foundations looks to uphold the absolute distilled core of what MTG is in the game, in some ways to balance the Universes Beyond influx we are looking at in 2025. So what does WOTC consider the quintessential expressions of colour and what cards and themes do Andy and Nathan wish made the cut?Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!Message us directly!

Foundations is rounding out it's product line with a brand new Jumpstart run, and that means new Legendary Creatures to study! Also, Andy and Nathan look ahead to 2025, and ponder on some of the biggest shifts in Magic's design and product philosophy, maybe ever...00:00: Jumpstart Legends1:12:40: MTG 2025Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

Can you taste the fear? Well Andy and Nathan at least try to as they sample the various spooky flavours of Duskmourn. This set may be one of the most tonally polarised offerings since Ice Age, and it may feel like for every satisfying thrill there's a cheap jump scare waiting around the corner.Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

In a multiverse of monsters, magic and machines there is nothing scarier than an old wooden door...so step through into one of Magic's scariest Planes! Andy and Nathan gear up and face their fears as they review this surprisingly subtle horror story.

The Plane of Bloomburrow presents us with a simpler way of life, full of carrot cake and common good for all, and the set likewise has gone someway to bringing the game itself back down to earth. So, in this slower paced set, which cards make Andy and Nathan leap for joy and clap their tiny paws together in glee?

As we get used to our brand new Animalfolk bodies on the Plane of Bloomburrow, a story of heroism and the power of kinship is waiting! Valerie Valdes presents us with a new tale and whilst the stakes may not be as high as we have been used to recently, the heros are no less mighty!

How likely is it that certain Planes are returned to and why? That is what the Rabiah Scale seeks to answer and give context for. So which Planes do Andy and Nathan wish to see again, and do they fully agree with the established ratings?Mark Rosewaters 3rd Rabiah Scale Article:https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/making-magic/the-rabiah-scale-part-3The Prof's take on returning Planes:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HnmV0_TlUoMusic by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQ

Its finally time to reap the rewards of Omen Paths and their full implications on the structure of the multiverse, and what better setting to do it than a Cowboy/Heist/Family drama/Team up/Anti-Hero story...But in among the big plays and high concepts, are there any cards or themes that stand out, and can Andy and Nathan tame this bucking bronco of a set?Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQ

Its time to saddle up for a rootin' tootin' showdown on the wild west Plane everyone was asking for! Was this story the big score that was promised or just a smash and grab for some quick loot?

What happens when you push The Brothers War, New Capenna and Thunder Junction through an Omen Path together? Why you get Fallout of course! (Or something like that). The latest Universes Beyond commander decks take on one of the biggest Franchises in Video Game history, and it's one with an in-depth lore and satire so heavy handed it may as well be wearing Power Armor.

There's been a murder!!! Never mind that it happened on one of the most densely populated and crime ridden Planes of the Multiverse, because this time its the Guild Masters who are getting whacked! Andy and Nathan are on the case to find out if a high concept, light-hearted genre flip on a fan favourite Plane can land, or whether this tale of misdeeds is left in the stack of unsolved crimes...Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQ

2023 is almost over and Magic has once again pushed the envelope on its product design. And inevitably that has an impact on the flavour of the cardboard. Andy and Nathan look back over the year, to give their Vorthos highs and lows, as well as where they are personally with the game.

Doctor Who is the latest IP to get the Universes Beyond treatment, with Booster Pack products and 4 Commander decks.

Magic's first throw back set has a tricky job of balancing flavour that feels old school, whilst still exciting new players and serving the game 30 years after these themes were last explored. Andy and Nathan take a look at what flavour jumps out to them and also examine what different experiences this set provides each of them.Content Warning: AlcoholMusic by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Twitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQ

The Side Stories for The Brothers War web fiction are anything but, and are in fact an integral part of MTG's current narrative. The guys comb through these tales of Planeswalkers planning a Multiversal  defence against the Phyrexians in a set of stories that feature both some of the best, and an example of maybe the worst, that magic fiction has to offer.

We are now well into the depths of the current Phyrexian narrative arch, with a return to Dominaria to ease us into a year of all the body horror/sci-fantasy/Time Warping nonsense that often accompanies the Phyrexians.
