In this conversation, Zac and Phil discuss the potential unbanning of several cards in the Legacy format. They debate the merits of unbanning some cards from the Legacy Banned List, They discuss the impact these cards had in the past, their potential impact in the current format, and the play patterns they would create. Ultimately, they have differing opinions on whether these cards should be unbanned. In this part of the conversation, Zac and Phil discuss the potential unbanning of various cards in the Legacy format. They cover the power level of old school cards like Library of Alexandria and Maze of Ith, the impact of companions like Lurrus of the Dream-Den, the viability of cards like Mana Drain and Mystical Tutor, and the potential of cards like Skullclamp and Survival of the Fittest. They also discuss the controversy surrounding cards like Time Vault and Wrenn & 6, and the lack of interest in cards like Windfall and Zirda, the Dawnwaker. Overall, they provide a comprehensive analysis of each card's potential impact on the format. In this conversation, we explored the importance of effective communication and how it can impact our relationships and interactions with others. We discussed various aspects of communication, including building trust and connection, active listening, non-verbal communication, overcoming barriers, and cultural differences. By understanding and improving our communication skills, we can enhance our personal and professional relationships.

FenrusCloud and Mike Everett join Zac to talk about the past, present, and future of Infect. The conversation covers various matchups and strategies for playing Infect in Legacy. The present and future of Infect are discussed, along with the deck's similarities to Delver. The hosts share their experiences and insights on deck building, mistakes, and different variations of Infect. They also analyze specific matchups against Dimir Scam, Five Color Control, Temur Aggro, Temur Delver, Five Color Tokens, Boros Painter, Colorless Painter, and Four-Color Tempo. In this Infect Symposium, the hosts discuss various matchups and the future of the deck. They analyze the challenges of facing the Four-Color Garbage Pile, Eldrazi Stompy, and Mono Red Prison. They also highlight the deck's current power level and its potential for growth. The hosts emphasize the importance of understanding the meta and opponents' lack of knowledge about Infect. They conclude with their thoughts on deck builds and strategies. Takeaways The Four-Color Garbage Pile matchup is winnable but challenging due to the deck's high interaction. Eldrazi Stompy can be a tough matchup, but the deck's lack of removal and slower clock can be exploited. Mono Red Prison can be a difficult matchup, but the deck's reliance on specific cards and lack of interaction can be exploited. Infect is currently at its strongest and most powerful state, with Legolas being a game-changer. The deck's lack of popularity may be due to its difficulty to play and opponents' lack of knowledge about Infect. The removal in the format, such as Snuff Out and Plague Engineer, is less prevalent, making the deck more viable. Opponents' lack of knowledge about Infect can lead to free wins and favorable matchups. Deck builds should consider the meta and include enough lands to activate Lurrus of the Dream-Den.

Season 13, Episode 20: Weekly Roundup + Brew Session (Kaito Shizuki, Tezzeret, Betrayer of Flesh, Invoke Despair, Fable of the Mirror-Breaker) In the last few years the Modern format has experienced more severe changes than at any point in the past. For the constant player, this has been progressive in nature and exciting to follow (even if expensive and a tad overwhelming), however not so much for casual enjoyers of the format or people taking a break. In today's episode we try to extend a helping hand to those people. Today on Faithless Brewing we are responding to one of the most common questions we got during our last mailbag episode: “How can I get started in Modern?” or “How can I get back into Modern after a break?" This episode is intended to be a resource not only for new and returning Modern players, but also for anyone seeking a broader understanding of the best decks after the ban of Lurrus of the Dream-Den. Our goal is to provide a clear idea of the strategies the most popular decks are employing, the key cards they utilize, and (more importantly for our beloved spike rogues) how to play around them. We cover a dozen tier 1 Modern decks and give our best matchup and sideboarding advice for tackling the meta in 2022. So, is it possible to get back into the loop after being away from it? Absolutely yes! We hope this format guide is a stepping stone for anyone that needs it. Happy brewing! **** Like our content?

Lurrus of the Dream-Den is finally gone.... so what now? Dom and Ari discuss two weeks of Modern results free from the Cat Nightmare and where the format could go from here. Featuring two major paper events in the Hunter Burton Memorial Open and SCG Indy, yet another weekend of Magic Online dominance by Guillaume Wafo-Tapa, and some Death's Shadow players trying their hardest to not change decks.Timestamps: 2:31 - Lurrus Ban16:45 - Event Results Week (HBMO, SCG Indy, and MTGO)1:26:00 - Dom Top 4s a Pioneer Event1:34:00 - Nonsense of the WeekPatreon: patreon.com/dominarias_judgmentTwitter : @dominaria_podLurrus Ban AnnouncementHunter Burton Memorial Open DecklistsMTGO Super Qualifier DecklistsMTGO Challenge Decklists: Saturday / SundaySCG Indy Team Main Event / Modern 5KAndrew Elenbogen's 4C Yorion SB guide Nonsense of the Week: MHayashi / MHayashi again! / Mono B / Tameshi Combo
It was a quiet Monday morning. Then, out of the blue, Wizards posted an announcement. Perplex and filled with excitement, we read the set of words we had been expecting to see for months, and we just could not believe: Lurrus of the Dream Den is Banned in Modern. The entire format has been completely shaken up!... Or maybe not so much??? Fran, Evan and Gabe talk about what we can expect to see in the format moving forward, and what exquisite and fun brews they have been working on. Get your coffee, beer, or whatever you may want, cause it's time for Mishra's Babble!

Joined by Jacob Dawson, Zach and Brad are excited to discuss the recent tournament results from a NH $1k Modern event and the recent, and sudden, banning of Lurrus of the Dream Den!
Billy and Mapson take a look at the brand-new and unexpected Modern format following the banning of Lurrus of the Dream-Den. Afterwards they talk about the Legacy Showcase Challenge, 8Mulch, and a Zoo deck with a rousing endorsement from Mapson.
News, News, News! Innerhalb weniger Tage hat sich einiges auf dem MTG Sektor getan. Neben einem überraschenden Banned Announcement u.a. für das Modern Format, schauen wir auf die ersten Spoiler zu New Capenna und eine Änderung für den Release. Zudem schauen wir auf die Reprints der Stranger Things Karten die wir erst vor kurzem als Secret Lair bekommen haben. Weiter gehts mit einem Update zum Projekt 110 und wie dieses in Zukunft gestaltet wird. Zum Schluss schauen wir noch auf die Trends der Woche.

Well they finally went and did it. Wizards of the Coast (kinda) surprised the entire Magic Non-Rotating Format World by sending everyone's favorite Nightmare Cat back to her den to think about what's she's done. In case that previous sentence isn't clear, I'm trying to say that they banned Lurrus of the Dream-Den in Modern and Pioneer. After (tearfully) throwing away an entire month of episodes we had planned out before this news, the three friends gather their composure and do what you pay (or don't pay) them to do — make predicitions about what will happen in Magic and just generally react to the news. Stan seems excited for Murktide. Dave seems excited for Obosh. Shane seems excited for things to stay mostly the same.

Strixhaven, Episode 12: Sedgemoor Witch At first glance, Sedgemoor Witch looks like more of the same: Monastery Mentor and Young Pyromancer are already fine options, and neither sees widespread play in Modern or Pioneer. Giving up Lurrus of the Dream-Den is a huge cost, and the Witch also doesn't get triggers from Mishra's Bauble, planeswalkers, or the like. But look closely at that wall of text -- peer deep into the Witch's haunting, hollow eyes -- and a unique skill set begins to emerge that neither Pyromancer nor Mentor can boast. Aggressive stats and more useful tokens are just the beginning. Copying your spells, particularly with synergistic pieces like Plumb the Forbidden or Flusterstorm, opens up entirely new lines of attack. And most importantly, Sedgemoor Witch is black, bring the power of the pyromancer to archetypes and mana configurations that previously did not have access to the effect. Rarely to do we get a chance to brew around a card that is making waves in Legacy and even Vintage but has been quiet so far in Modern and Pioneer. Let's fire up the cauldron and see what the witch can do! **** Decklists + a full transcipt for this episode can be viewed at FaithlessBrewing.com **** Like our content?

In this very special episode, we're looking at a Standard deck with your favorite nightmare cat, and mine, Lurrus of the Dream Den. She's big, she's mean, and I assume she's female because she seems very protective of her young. This deck is nasty, and you can expect to see it coming to a standard queue near you. Full deck list available here: https://aetherhub.com/Deck/Public/253887 Overthinking MTG is a daily podcast where our host, HamHocks42, takes a look at a random card from Magic: the Gathering and talks about it for at least 10 minutes. Often, though, he ends up yammering about whatever's on the top of his mind that the card reminds him of and a half hours passes and it turns out all he's done is share his thoughts on recent news related to Commander, Magic: the Gathering Arena, Modern, Pioneer, Standard, or humorous anecdotes from his kitchen table jank days. If you want to get involved, you can absolutely join the conversation or request specific cards over on Discord: https://discord.gg/yefBNBu Also, our host live streams on Twitch every weekday morning: https://www.twitch.tv/hamhocks42
It's good to see that we are starting to get bleed over. I hope the others coming from home don't find the restrictions of this place to egregious. Little by little, we are tipping the scale to a point she can't compensate. The nexus keeps feeding chaos into the rift, and she is grasping at straws to try and hold it closed. I keep thinking, Elizabet, how wonderful it will feel to shake off the restriction of the material here and see what new thing replaces it when my God awakens. She brought it with her, the limits on the unimaginable. The others were too detached to notice, but it chewed at me like an infection. The moment when it is cleansed from me can not come soon enough.The team goes to the Dream Den to figure out what is affecting it and the surrounding area. Last time, their deepest fears were made real, so it can't get worse than that, right?
