249: Bound to Ixalan



On this episode, Maria and Meghan dive deep into the Magic story and bring you an update on what’s been happening flavor-wise on the plane of Ixalan…which no planeswalker can seem to planeswalk away from. Did you just get goosebumps? Because that shizz is mysterious! PLUS: We get a preview of the upcoming Pro Tour by checking out the hottest teams in the Team Series and a review of Ixalan limited from GP Phoenix + a sealed PPTQ. Full disclosure: during this episode, you will hear several bald-faced lies.

248: Sealed With a Kiss



On this episode, Maria and Meghan dive deep into the Ixalan sealed format ahead of Grand Prix Phoenix and some sealed PPTQs that might be headed your way soon! They crack six packs and attempt to build the best deck with what they get. (Want to play along at home? Head to http://www.magictheamateuring.com to see photos of the deck build or watch this episode on YouTube!) Our fearless hosts also chat about what treasures Ixalan has brought to Modern after an SCG tournament, they dip into the Listener Discord Mailbag, and Maria raps…poorly.

247: Too Many (?) Tangents



On this episode, Maria and Meghan are back (and better?) than ever after a weekend covering the U.S. Nationals tournament in Richmond, Virginia! Enjoy their sleep-deprived states as they walk you through what’s new with Standard (Maria loves those vamps!), how the Ixalan draft format is evolving (Meghan loves those treasures!), and what to expect when the world’s best meet at the World Magic Cup this winter. OH! Did we fail to mention that this show goes off the rails in a pretty major way? Well, it does. I sure hope you like long, involved discussions about barely relevant tv shows and movies because…let’s just say, you’re gonna get it. To anyone who worked on either “Early Edition” or “I Origins”, we apologize in advance.

PLUS: A look ahead to U.S. Nationals this weekend (what spicy Standard brews could we see?!), Maria and Meghan share their new MOST FAVORITE Twitter account, and it’s a game of Pick, Lick, or Flick when Flavor Text Theatre hits the stage! Now let’s slap ourselves in the face with a banana and start the show!

245: #SockOff2017



On this episode, Maria and Meghan welcome very esteemed guests Marshall Sutcliffe (of Limited Resources fame) and Tim Willoughby (of the Magic Pro Tour) to the episode! Sitting on hotel room beds in Boston awaiting the upcoming World Championship, our fearsome foursome discuss Ixalan limited and their favorite moments from GP Providence (including that GREAT Osyp bluff), predict who will take home the title of World Champion (socks are on the line!!) and Marshall picks a devious date in The Dating Game. This is a crazy fun episode that is simply not to be missed!
