Add one more top 8 to Collins's portfolio, this time with a deck he tried his hardest not to play. But Dimir Inverter's just the best you can do in Pioneer, at least for the moment. Plus! We're getting back to modern as we prep for SCG Regionals. Thanks as always to Wave Sunray for our music.
Faithless Brewing, Episode 26: New Spice from SCG Regionals In this second half of our double header episode, we are tackling all things Modern: spicy brews from SCG Regionals, testing results with The Great Henge, plus Damon's Top 8 finish in his Standard MCQ in Mox Boarding House, Seattle. Does the Czech testing house's Bant Ramp deck hold lessons for Modern as well? Two other important announcements this week: First: We are extremely excited to announce the launch of our Faithless Brewing PATREON (https://www.patreon.com/faithlessbrewing)!
