Season 2 Episode 3 The main topic begins around 41 minutes.  Do you miss the days of Thrulls, Thallids, and Homarids? Do you like to shake your fist at the sky because kids these days don't know how Banding works? Do you think a 1/3 for 3 mana is about right? Then, boy-howdy, do we have the cube for you! FALLEN EMPIRES REMASTERED! We return to the Dominaria continent of Sarpadia as the Ice Age is approaching. 360 cards--nearly singleton (arts). We took the best of Fallen Empires and added some win conditions (but not too many of them, because we still want you to play Fallen Empires cards).

Season 2 Episode 2 We take an episode off of trying to provide you ways to save money, and instead, we just have fun. Our casual friend-group's prerelease draft.  Art by Stefan Keller Music: Take Me Higher by Jahzzar is licensed under a Attribution-ShareAlike License. 

Season 2 Episode 1 Dylan and Ryan return from the break caused by our existential crisis we were thrown into with the announcement of Pioneer, a format that is so much better than modern for brewing on a budget.  This episode is a bit more casual (and casually edited), so I hope you enjoy our rambles.  This week's resources: www.mtgstocks.com  Budget Pioneer articles on TCGPlayer by Emma Partlow Link to her articles.  Twitter: @emmmzyne    Decks discussed: STAR PACT OF DOOM Pioneer Phoenix Pioneer BG Constrictor   Art by Stefan Keller Music: Take Me Higher by Jahzzar is licensed under a Attribution-ShareAlike License.
