Après 19 mois de préparation, la Formule 1 arrive enfin à Las Vegas, dans le cadre du Grand Prix de Las Vegas. Il s'agira de la troisième présence de la F1 dans Sin City, après deux courses dans le stationnement du Caesars Palace (1981 & 1982). Ce sera aussi le premier GP disputé une autre journée que le dimanche, avec le départ de l'épreuve le samedi à 22h00, heure locale. (le GP d'Afrique du Sud 1985 eut lieu un samedi). Si ce GP à Vegas suscitera de l'attention en piste, il le sera tout autant à l'extérieur du circuit, avec la présence de vedettes, des billets assez exorbitants, mais, surtout, des résidents locaux en furie contre la Formule 1.Visitez www.bulletingp.com pour lire les chroniques et avant-goûts sur les Grands Prix de Formule 1.

The old school rap label founded by Suge Knight, The D.O.C., and Dr. Dre today is owned and operated Entertainment One, which recently inked a deal with HASBRO for 4 billion (with a b) dollars. Now, getting eOne also means that HASBRO can start making things associated with more toy-aligned properties like Peppa Pig and PJ Masks, but those are less interesting to me. So tell me: How do you hope Wizards of the Coast and West Coast collaborate in the future?

No Brian this week, instead Andy sits down with Mike Coyle (or just Coyle, his middle name is Patrick if you want to call him that too). The guys talk New mtg story spoilers, GP Vegas, B&R announcements, Commander 19 #value, and the MTG state of design 2019 article. Lots of great stuff!

Eine dunkle Zeit in Modern geht zu Ende. Die Tyrannei von Hogaak und Pheonix ist vorbei und ein neuer Held lässt das Format aufläuchten: "Stoneforge Mystik". Außerdem wurde Youtuber "Amaz" wegen aggressiven Verhalten vom Grand Prix Vegas disqualifiziert und hinter einem Commander 2019 Deck verbirgt sich das wohl verrückteste Reprint der Geschichte von Magic The Gathering.

Four-Color Kethis broke Standard at the most recent Mythic Championship Qualifier Weekend. Only a few people played the new combo deck, with both Ondrej Strasky and Stanislav Cifka managing 5-1s on Day 2 to qualify for MC5. With those impressive results, it seems the Czech is in the mail! Eh, get it? They’re bringin’ Kethis back. Well regardless, overly complicated graveyard-based iterative combo decks and StanCifka go together like Erin and the “block” button. But it kind of came out of nowhere, so tell me: what’s the next big surprise deck to take the metagame by storm?

David is getting ready for GP Vegas! The boys chat about Travis' Mythic Esper List, M20 Drafting and how to handle rotation on MTG Arena.

At least Josh Utter-Leyton will get to enjoy a month of everyone talking about how great he is, because not voting for him is pretty hard to justify, regardless of the metrics you choose.

The theory goes that Rise of the Eldrazi came out in 2009, as did several big rule changes that coincided with the arrival of our flying spaghetti overlords. Magic did away with mana burn, but not because it was an archaic stupid rule… but because Ulamog ate all the excess mana! 1-cost burn spells and mana dorks stopped seeing print, but not because Lightning Bolt and Elvish Mystic were too good… it's because Kozilek was countering them all! The exile zone was introduced, but not because it sounds way cooler than "removed from game…" but because the Eldrazi can process things from there! And now, with the deaths of Kozilek and Ulamog at the hands of the Gatewatch last year, Llanowar Elves and mana burn were due to come back… which is why the Standard rotation cycle was reverted back to the old 2 year version! **Wake up people!** The M10 rule changes never actually came into effect! That means damage has been on the stack for the last seven years! The term "battlefield" was introduced then as well… so where have we been putting our 187 creatures since 2009? Dogs and cats living together! Mass Hysteria! ((breathe)) Now, clearly this is the best Magic conspiracy theory since Conspiracy, but we gotta sell more National Inquirers next week, so what is another tinfoil tricorn hat hypothesis you came up with?

Since then, Phoenix, Palm Springs, and many others also reported record highs. Death Valley came within degrees of the hottest it has ever been anywhere  in the United States. Burbank airport in southern California grounded regional aircraft because the air was too hot and thin to provide the lift needed to take off. #Science. Basically it's the perfect metagame Deserts and Hour of Devastation. So based on the spoiler season and the summer season heating up, what do you expect the next official Hour of Devastation preview to be?

The discovery of the TRAPPIST-1 system sets a new record for the greatest number of habitable-zone planets found around a single star outside our solar system. All of these seven planets could have liquid water, and three fall within the Goldilocks zone that can support human life. This is obviously a huge day for those interested in space exploration and that meme guy from the History channel, but tell me: what will Magic be like once we enter the Interstellar era?

We're back at GP Las Vegas! As always, I'm asking Three Questions to anyone willing to answer them, whether they're a listener, judge, pro player, innocent bystander, or just someone that catches my eye. The real purpose of this show, like most of the stuff I do, is to entertain you – the listener. Rather than asking the same old questions that everyone else does, I'm looking to give you a slightly more off-the-wall look into these Magic players and judges and what-have-you by catching them off guard and putting them on the spot. This episode covers the middle part of Day 2, which was Sunday. I was in a mad rush to make sure I found as many people as I could, and it shows. The episode kicks off with well-known MTG cosplayer Christine Sprankle and never slows down! I've got a few judges: Bryan Prillaman (just hours before he went L3), Cluze, John Alderfer, and the very intimidating Sheldon Menery. I talked to several members of the MTG community at large like Lauren Lee, Jonathan Richmond (Norbert!), Spencer Howland, and Jason Alt. I found a few more pros I hadn't bothered yet too: Willy Edel, James Searles, Reid Duke, and Andrew Cuneo. And finally, I ran into a couple masses of degenerates including but not limited to: Slick Jagger, Matty Studios, GingerItalian, Time_Elemental, Sup Stevie, and the incomparable Kevy Metal. Hope you enjoy! Let me know what your answers would be! And keep an eye out for the last batch of Three Questions from Grand Prix Vegas coming soon!   Your host: Chewie Twitter: @TheManaPool Email: chewie@mtgcast.comMusic: The Journey Continues by Kazunaka Yamane (from Double Dragon)

Rather than asking the same old questions that everyone else does, I'm looking to give you a slightly more off-the-wall look into these Magic players and judges and what-have-you by catching them off guard and putting them on the spot. This episode covers the end of Day 1 and the beginning of Day 2! My trusty digital recorder was perfectly timed, not running out of storage space until the end of the night on Saturday. This episode I snagged a lot of awesome people to interview, including some high-level judges (including former Judgecast host Sean Catanese), a YouTuber from Top and Go Productions, Pro Tour Historian and (sorta) podcaster Brian David-Marshall, Director of OP for WotC Helene Bergeot, and Magic entertainers Reuben Bresler and Nathan Holt! Of course I hit some big pro players too - LSV, Ben Stark, David Ochoa, and Shahar Shenhar! I'm pretty sure I left a few out, sorry about that. Hope you enjoy! Let me know what your answers would be! And keep an eye out for the next batch of Three Questions from Grand Prix Vegas coming soon!   Your host: Chewie Twitter: @TheManaPool Email: chewie@mtgcast.comMusic: The Journey Continues by Kazunaka Yamane (from Double Dragon)

We're back at GP Las Vegas!  As always, I'm asking Three Questions to anyone willing to answer them, whether they're a listener, judge, pro player, innocent bystander, or just someone that catches my eye. The real purpose of this show, like most of the stuff I do, is to entertain you – the listener.  Rather than asking the same old questions that everyone else does, I'm looking to give you a slightly more off-the-wall look into these Magic players and judges and what-have-you by catching them off guard and putting them on the spot. This episode covers the third bit of Day 1, from the end of round 6 until round...8 or 9, I can't really tell.  This time around I'm talking to listeners, high-level judges, Twitter people, and an angel that was walking around the building.  I've also got the writer and one of the actors from Top Decking, a live-action series on YouTube that I recommend you watch.  Oh, I talked to a few pro players too - Roberto Gonzalez, Alexander Hayne, Sam Black, and Melissa DeTora. Hope you enjoy!  Let me know what your answers would be!  And keep an eye out for the next batch of Three Questions from Grand Prix Vegas coming soon!   Your host: Chewie Twitter: @TheManaPool Email: chewie@mtgcast.comMusic: The Journey Continues by Kazunaka Yamane (from Double Dragon)

I enjoyed asking people Three Questions at GP Pittsburgh so much that the listeners decided to chip in and send me to Vegas to do it again!  As always, I'm asking Three Questions to anyone willing to answer them, whether they're a listener, judge, pro player, innocent bystander, or just someone that catches my eye.

This episode covers the second bit of Day 1, from round 3 until round...5 or 6, I can't really tell.  This time I'm talking to a variety of people from the Magic community, starting with Matt Jones, writer for HipstersOfTheCoast.com.  Then there's a judge with seriously awesome hair, a Hall of Famer and a probable future one (Jensen and Turtenwald) and Josh Utter-Leyton and his crew.  Also on this episode are commentator and podcaster Marshall Sutcliffe, current R&D intern and pro player Jackie Lee, the man behind CMDR Decks Uriah Oxford, everyone's favorite Twitter angel Heather Dawn, plus a handful of listeners as usual!

This episode covers the very first part of Saturday at GP Vegas.  I played a round then walked around and talked to a bunch of people.  Then I played another round and talked to a bunch more people.  That's about it, I didn't even have time to get hungry during the time this episode covers!  I talked to The Lady Cluze, Will Blondon (formerly of Horde of Notions), Marcel and Corbin from Brainstorm Brewery, another lapsed podcaster from Scrubland, another pair of casters from Planeswalker Asylum, and even one of the former owners of MTGCast!  And that's not even everyone on this episode!

This episode covers Friday of GP Vegas.  I stood in a line for a ridiculous amount of time, survived it, and started asking questions.  I finally got to meet Jeremey Schofield face to face, which is good since he was the reason I made it to Vegas.  Other highlights were the Voice of the Pro Tour Rich Hagon, everyone's favorite silent Canadian assassin KYT, and a couple of pro players you might know about, David Williams and The Great One himself, Bob Maher.

This is the first episode after Chewie got back from his listener-supplied trip to Grand Prix Las Vegas!  So of course, he has to talk at great length about GP Vegas.  Because it was amazing in so many ways.  Like, SO many ways.  So I'm gonna go ahead and apologize for how long that took, because apparently no one realized just how long we went on about it.Then there's all the other stuff!  Here are some handy links for you:M14 previews: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/tcg/article.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/magic2014coreset/cigM14 promos and tokens: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1262Super-sweet SDCC Garruk promo: http://geek-news.mtv.com/2013/06/24/magic-the-gathering-planeswalkers-san-diego-comic-con/The GP Vegas infographic: http://www.gatheringmagic.com/james-arnold-design-art-06242013-grand-prix-las-vegas-an-infographic/Inside the Deck from GP Vegas part 1: http://www.gatheringmagic.com/inside-the-deck-rich-castle-06232013-videos-from-grand-prix-las-vegas/And part 2: http://www.gatheringmagic.com/inside-the-deck-las-vegas-video-06272013-videos-from-grand-prix-las-vegas-part-two/  Intro & Outro Music – Diamond by Swift – http://www.myspace.com/swiftband Break Music – nope, not this week This episode's post: http://themanapool.com/podcast/episode-283 Forum thread for this episode: http://cardshark.freeforums.org/episode-283-what-happens-in-vegas-stays-on-the-podcast-t930.html Check out our archive at http://themanapool.com/category/podcast Our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/TheManaPool Our Google+ page: http://gplus.to/themanapool Email us at dorks@themanapool.com Follow us on Twitter at @TheManaPool Cardshark Member Promotions: http://www.cardshark.com/Promotions/Member-Promotions.aspx Subscribe to our RSS feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/themanapool

Since Grand Prix Las Vegas just completely destroyed the record for largest Magic event ever, it is a fine time to revisit the previous holder of that record, GP Charlotte.  Of course Chewie was there, armed as always with his trusty digital recorder, his wits, and spare batteries.  He and his fellow dorks concocted this edition of the Three Questions once they arrived in Charlotte, sitting in Buffalo Wild Wings actually.  Once the Questions were decided, all that was left was to go out and hit people over the head with them. And hit them he did!  This show represents those that answered the questions on Sunday, which was Day 2 of GP Charlotte.  Judges, pros, local players, and even innocent bystanders all heard the questions and answered them.Stay tuned for the next edition of Three Questions, coming straight from Grand Prix Pittsburgh and after that, the immense amount of content from GP Vegas!Music:  The Journey Continues (Intermission) by Kazunaka Yamane (from Double Dragon)Your host: ChewieTwitter: @TheManaPoolEmail: chewie@mtgcast.com

On this episode, of course we're gonna talk about From the Vault: Twenty.  I mean, duh.  Then we go on into more esoteric topics.  A listener known as Andrew Hunt (Magnor Criol on the forums) supplied us with six 60-card casual decks to talk about.  And we do.  At great length.  These are really pretty cool.  We go over each one, poking at the pros and cons, bouncing potential modifications off of each other, stuff like that.  The links to the TappedOut pages are below. Then we have a slight interruption.  Jeremey Schofield (@J_Schofield) pops in to try to get money out of you!  Not for himself, but for Chewie!  Jeremey has spearheaded an operation to get Chewie a plane ticket to Grand Prix Las Vegas in June.  If you remember, GP Vegas is going to be Modern Masters Limited, which is most likely going to be completely amazing.  The GP itself is shaping up to be one of the biggest ever.  So if you'd like to chip in and help, all you have to do is click here: http://www.gofundme.com/2309p0 *Chewie note: By the time this was ready to be posted, we had already reached the goal of $500!  But if you still want to send in more, go right ahead.  Any excess funds will be split between beefing up the prize pool for the raffle-type thing he's doing and the rest will be donated to the MTGCast Network to keep it up and running.  Pretty cool huh? Here are the decks in the order that we talked about them, feel free to follow along: Shaper's Madness - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/shapers-madness/Consumerism - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/consumerism/Gloryscale Multifun - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/gloryscale-multifun/Pointed - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/pointed/Infinite Murkfiend - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/infinite-murkfiend/A Draining Experience - http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/a-draining-experience/ From the Vault: Twenty - http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1171 Be sure to check out the Cardshark 12 Year Anniversary Promotion!
