Normally Brian David-Marshall and Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz would be doing a preview show for the Mythic Invitational -- showcasing the Arena-only Historic format -- but with the decks being revealed so close to the starter pistol for the event that was not possible. Instead they are looking through the decks while the early rounds of the event play out in the background.

With Zendikar Rising previews in full swing, Brian David-Marshall and Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz go on a quest to find the most messed-up Magic cards in the set so far. The duo go through the 41 rares and mythics that had been previewed as of Thursday Sept 3rd looking for the cards that most like to party, which ones are going to impact your Commander games and which ones meet the highest honor Zvi can bestow upon a card -- "That's a messed up Magic card!"

With the Temur Reclamation dominated Players Tour Finals in the rearview mirror, Wizards of the Coast announced a huge swath of bans in Standard, Pioneer, Historic, and even Brawl. The announcement takes the total number of banned cards in this Standard format to ten -- a number of cards we have not seen banned at the same time since Urza's Block. Brian David-Marshall and Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz walk through the history of banned and restricted cards in Standard, talk about the impact of these bans in the various formats, and Zvi brews a Lukka deck for Standard that he is excited to play with in this new Reclamation-less Standard format. Meanwhile... BDM has been playing Teferi Tribal in Historic and is now in need of a new deck. Badly. Ping him on Twitter and tell him what you are liking now that the format has been shaken up a little.

Nick chats with Magic Hall of Famer David Steele about broadcasting scrimmages from Disney, what he expects from Markelle Fultz, how the Magic should fare during the restart and much more!

The longest running Magic podcast is back with a new (and long-running) episode. Brian David-Marshall is once more joined by Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz as the pair discuss the upcoming Players Tour, recent bannings, the changes to companions, and how Zvi's Stompy deck has found a lane in the Standard metagame. With Magic 2021 spoilers coming fast and furiously they spend the rest of the episode going through the cards and trying to determine if the reprinting of Baneslayer Angel means that we are going to see R&D start to shift further away from Mulldrifters over the coming year in an effort to pump the brakes on the crazy Standard rollercoaster we have been on for the last year and a half.

Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz has gotten as low as 13 lands in the Ikoria Limited decks thanks to the power of "Cycling 1." He sits down with co-host Brian David-Marshall to look at the commons and uncommons in White, Blue, and Black as they try to figure out which cards make this draft format tick. They have already discussed the Companions and each other them have had success with them in Draft but is this a Prince or Pauper format? Do the commons and uncommons dominate the strategies or dies it all come down to the rare inhabitants of Monster Island?

The 24-31 Orlando Magic are hopefully refreshed coming off the All-Star Break. The 8th seed in the East is 2-0 with James Ennis on the floor, much needed since it came after losing 7 of eight contests. Aaron Gordon getting robbed of another All-Star dunk contest title is of course a topic. Can the Magic take their outrage and motivate themselves to a strong push into the playoffs? The Ringer rolled out two podcasts about Dwight Howard as well as Game 4 of the 2009 Finals, and we have notes. The Magic have the land now to build a new training/health center within downtown Orlando. There’s also discussion on airline seat reclining etiquette. During recording, a D.J. Augustin news update breaks that has him returning to the court very soon. If you’re going to the game against the Dallas Mavericks, please give Darrell Armstrong an immense standing ovation for his Magic Hall of Fame induction. D.A. had the ‘Flash’ nickname before Dwyane Wade. #MagicAboveAll #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language Song: WIN – Jay Rock

Orlando is 12-17 so far this 2019-2020 regular season. Enough for the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference, but not meeting expectations of a squad that should be on the rise. The Magic have been roughed up by injuries and inconsistent play. We give out Christmas presents to Magic players that can improve their performance. 3:40 – The Magic’s orange ‘City’ jerseys grow on you like leeches. 7:29 – Darrell Armstrong deservedly will be the 9th person inducted into the Magic Hall of Fame. 10:46 – What is the most glaring weakness on this Magic team currently? 13:24 - Is it time to trade Aaron Gordon? 22:16 - Evan Fournier is the Magic’s leading scorer. The Magic will have to make a decision soon long term with him as he’s playing for a new contract. 29:01 - Did Terrence Ross switching from jersey #31 to #8 inevitably doom him? 37:01 - Jonathan Isaac is a defensive force and may be ready for more offensive touches. Is Aaron Gordon harming him? 41:54 - Markelle Fultz is the truth. Imagine what he’ll be once he hits 3-pointers. 49:26 - A lot of patience is still needed, but it’s maddening watching Mo Bamba at times. 59:06 - The bulking up hasn’t helped Michael Carter-Williams who, when he’s not bleeding, has been out injured. #MagicAboveAll #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language Song: WIN – Jay Rock

Darrell Armstrong was named the 2020 Magic Hall of Fame inductee earlier today. One of his very first acts of business after being enshrined... joining Dante Marchitelli on Magic Drive Time.

Brian David-Marshall and Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz sat down at the Upper Westside location of Hex and Company (a burgeoning chain of NYC gaming cafes) to talk about Zvi's preparation for the upcoming Mythic Championship in Richmond. He walked through his approach to draft and why he thinks it is actually easy being green in Throne of Eldraine. He also reveals the deck that was almost his weapon of choice. At the time of recording he was pretty set on playing Cavaliers but was still hoping to go back to his ElkBlade brew; a deck that combines elements of the ubiquitous Food decks with the finishing power of Questing Beast and Embercleave. Hear how one of the greatest minds in the history of the game tackles one of the most frustrating metagames in his long memory of the game. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/top8magic/support

Once upon a time there was a Hall of Famer and Pro Tour champion named Zvi who was going to be attending the Mythic ball in Richmond. Before he could attend that ball the wicked tournament organizer said had to complete all his chores; poring over the new cards as they were released to public, thinking about building new decks, and talking about the new cards for multiple hours on the longest running Magic podcast on the game’s history. Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz joins Pro Tour Historian emeritus for another episode — and then another one after that — of Top 8 Magic. Find out which cards have the noted deckbuilder excited about the upcoming Standard format, which one he fully expects to get banned in Modern, and what the gamblers line would be for Hall of Famer-elect Reid Duke to register a copy of Garruk, Cursed Huntsman in his 75 cards for Richmond. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/top8magic/support

‘Magical Moments’ debuts, a segment series where we tell our greatest tales as Orlando Magic basketball fans. First story, a review of a Magic victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on April 15, 2006. Along with that being Dwight Howard’s 28-point and 26-rebound party, we focus more on Sixers General Manager Billy King. How we obtained King’s ’06 season All-NBA 1st Team, ROY, and MVP voting selections (not bad, Billy), and why his in-arena guests that game were…unique. A rankings game occurs on who will become the 9th inductee to the Orlando Magic’s team Hall of Fame. Penny has a list of 5 candidates, Pops has a list of 5 candidates. Some nominees are obvious, others are certainly not. The Magic are now 31-36 after losing in Philly and defeating the Dallas Mavericks. We discuss those contests, and how Orlando chases down the 8th spot in the East again. Warning: Adult Language Song: WIN - Jay Rock

Early Challenge Eric struggled with being too cocky as a kid. He was really good, he knew it and let everyone knew it. He realized this and through good examples, he matured and got better. Worst Magic Moment Playing Caw blade at Pro Tour Paris and finishing 9th after losing 2 win-and-ins. Proudest Magic Moment Inducted into the Magic Hall of Fame.

Randy Buehler has 8 Grand Prix top 8’s, including a win and 5 Pro Tour top 16’s, including a win! His professional Magic career was cut short when he took a position at Wizards of the Coast, eventually becoming director of Magic R&D and then Vice-President of Digital Games. He has since moved on from Wizards but has never missed a Pro Tour as he is the voice of the Pro Tour webcast. Randy is a class of 2007 member of the Magic Hall of Fame. Limited Tips Understand what is critical mass. You can get more synergy in draft than in sealed. Through practice you can identify how many synergistic cards you'll actually need to make the strategy work. If you don't have that mass than just play what is good. Look at your rares and try to build around them. Don't lose track of what you're actually doing by spending a bunch of brain power on trying to remember EVERY thing you've passed. Don't force colors in draft. Open your first pack and just look at the cards, pick the best card, remember the ones you almost picked and look to the next pack. Shoot for two colors with a good curve. For mana, start with 17 lands and count the pips of your cards and match your lands with the ratio of pips. Double mana symbol cards are very intensive in Limited. Avoid splashing them. Preparing for Big Events Be familiar with the results of previous events before yours. How does your deck hold up against the decks that did well? Play Testing When you are play testing your brew make sure you always run it against a gauntlet deck. Running your brew against a buddy's brew is not good play testing. Team Building Find people you get along with and have similar goals. However, if you don't have a team you can embrace Magic: The Gathering Online and play whenever you want. Improvement If you have a limited budget find players with similar card access as you so you don't get constantly crushed. Find where you are good (try Magic Online) and focus on that format to build your collection. Magic Resource MTG Gold Fish Connect With Randy @rbuehler

First Set  Homelands   Favorite Set  Invasion - First set Randy worked on at Wizards R&D    Ravnica - First set done with processes and people that Randy put in place and hired. It was awesome seeing a set come together by people he brought on board.   Favorite Card Necropotence What makes Magic fun for you? The competitive aspect of the game keeps Randy engaged. The small puzzles, the overall strategy the challenge of facing off with an opponent is so addicting to those who seek to prove they are the best at something. Early Challenge Your circle of players is a huge factor of how good you are. Finding players that are better than you is the BEST way to improve. Best Format Vintage - It's really the only format he can play on a semi competitive level because he can't play at premier events. (His wife currently works for Wizards of the Coast so he can't play at events because he's the immediate family member of a Wizards employee.) Current Standard Deck Randy plays "all the decks" so he can be familiar with lines of play for coverage. He's excited to look into Turbo Fog and Rally the Ancestors deck. Biggest Mistake Players Make Obsessing about luck. Instead of turning the focus outward and saying you lost because of bad luck you should turn the focus inward and say "what did I do wrong?" "How could I have played better?" Connect With Randy @rbuehler
