Season 18, Episode 26: Weekly Roundup Lawson Zandi returns to break down the results from Pro Tour: Barcelona, where The One Ring and Orcish Bowmasters put on dominant displays. Big mana was the big winner, with Tron and Amulet Titan harnessing The One Ring to tremendous effect while going way over the top of midrange and control players who had planned to outduel Rakdos Scam. And as for Rakdos itself? The most popular deck was also among the winningest decks, making it a ripe target for action in Monday's upcoming B&R window. There's plenty to unpack this week, as we take stock of the current state of the format and speculate where Modern can go from here. We also take a look at Wilds of Eldraine, analyzing the first batch of sneak peek preview cards. Like our content? Support us on Patreon and join our brewing community!

Season 17, Episode 6: Weekly Roundup (Modern + Pioneer) A full week of online tournaments with Phyrexia: All Will Be One are now in the books, and new format staples are emerging in both Modern and Pioneer. It starts with The Mycosynth Gardens, a card that Amulet Titan players have given rave reviews. The only question seems to be: where does Valakut+Dryad fit into the newly colorless manabase? Meanwhile, Dimir Mill players have been feasting upon the Amulet Hopeful sporting playsets of a new toy of their own: Jace, the Perfected Mind. An on-plan threat that plays to the board and has huge upside and versatility seems to be exactly what Dr. Mill ordered. Finally, Atraxa, Grand Unifier is a card in the midst of a meteoric rise. In just days the card has quadrupled in value following tournament wins in every format. The card is loaded with potential in both Modern and Pioneer, and is a worthy target for our next brewing adventure. Like our content? Support us on Patreon and join our brewing community!

Season 17, Episode 1: Brewer's Guide to Phyrexia, Part 1 (Modern) Behold blessed perfection! With Phyrexia: All Will Be One finally revealed in all of its machine glory, we are ready to dive into the glorious work of brewing. Today on Faithless Brewing we present our Modern set review. (This time around Pioneer will be treated separately, so check out our next episode if you are interested in that format). Two cards stand out immediately for their high potential in Modern. The first is Venerated Rotpriest, a 1 drop that could bolster traditional Infect strategies. More importantly, Rotpriest may be powerful enough to spawn a new Storm archetype. Thanks to Summoner's Pact, Ground Rift, and free spells, it's possible to assemble a lethal combination consistently by turn 3. Spellskite not only runs interference but doubles as additional copies of the Priest for purposes of accumulating triggers. The Mycosynth Gardens is enticing in Amulet Titan as a way to set up double Amulet kills. While the Titan experts run their experiments, we can also contemplate other cheap artifacts that might benefit from low-cost doubling. Rarely do lands offer so much brewing potential at such an efficient rate. Beyond those two blue chips, several other cards cards could upgrade existing strategies. Gleeful Demolition gives critical momentum to “whack” strategies alongside Kuldotha Rebirth, Jace, the Perfected Mind is a new toy for Mill with lots of optionality Soulless Jailer improves upon Drannith Magistrate, and the black Skullbomb is a clean 2 for 1 for Urza's Saga. Beyond the known strategies, Phyrexia: ONE also offers enticing brewing targets for the adventurous. Atraxa, Grand Unifier may be the new premier threat to cheat into play. Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler and Nahiri, the Unforgiving open up new brewing space on three mana planeswalkers, while Capricious Hellraiser can fit into fair and unfair strategies alike. And don't rule out the Mother of Machines herself: while Commander players wring their hands over Elesh Norn, her impressive powers may well extend into 1v1 formats. For a standard set release there is a lot going on beneath the surface, and plenty to keep our attentions occupied in the eternal formats. What cards do you have your eye on?

Once Upon a Time from Throne of Eldraine is making a huge impact on Modern! It's made Amulet Titan more consistent, is assembling Selesnya squads, and more!
Join us for our pilot episode of NSFM, where our hosts introduce themselves and go over our very first deck tech : Amulet Titan. Deck List : https://bit.ly/2TIv5K6
During his trip to SCG Richmond, Cedric Phillips sat down with Matthew Dilks, Edgar Magalhaes, and Tariq Patel to talk about the race for the StarCityGames.com Players' Championship, their thoughts on War of the Spark Standard, their favorite cards from Magic's newest set, adopting the London Mulligan rule on the SCG Tour, and if Finale of Devastation will make its way into Amulet Titan.
Cedric Phillips is joined by Ryan Overturf to make their predictions for Mythic Championship London. With the introduction of the London Mulligan rule, how much does that change deck selection for the players competing? Have decks like Tron and Dredge actually gotten better with the rule change? Is Izzet Phoenix still the deck to beat in Modern? And will the success of Amulet Titan on the SCG Tour translate to the grandest stage of them all? All that and Ryan even takes the time to explain why he wouldn't be caught dead playing Death and Taxes in Legacy but *would* play it in Modern!

The breakout star had a lot to say in his usual eloquent way!

On a Special Deck Tech edition of Constructed Ciriticsmi Spencer talks to Mason from the Even Odds podcast and fellow
Cedric Phillips sits down with SCG Worcester champion Dom Harvey and SCG Worcester runner-up Tariq Patel to talk about their early season success on the SCG Tour in 2019. Among the topics discussed, the two sometimes Canada residents talked about their runner up finish as a team at SCG Columbus the week prior to SCG Worcester, why they chose to play Amulet Titan and Izzet Phoenix at SCG Worcester, and what their plans are for the rest of Season One of the 2019 SCG Tour. As you'll quickly learn, the fact that Dom and Tariq are in 1st and 2nd on the SCG Tour leaderboard at the moment is no accident.
We return from our extended holiday break with a ton to talk about: an RPTQ, multiple GPs, a whole mess of spoilers, and of course Amulet Titan. We also introduce our new Patreon and Discord chat.
