On this episode, Maria and Meghan record remotely because they are practicing social distancing due to COVID-19 (and you should, too!) Find out how they’re doing (mentally, physically and emotionally) amid one of the strangest times our world has seen, at least in recent memory. Undeterred by the scary stuff happening around the globe, your hosts share their favorite Brawl decks on Arena (btw: Brawl is a great way to play with friends who are also self-quarantined!), give tips on working from home, and share their favorite non-MTG games to play with buddies virtually. Maria and Meghan are here for you during this tough time and are so, so happy to hopefully brighten up your day any way they can. Much love to all. Stay safe out there.

On this episode, Maria and Meghan make the best decks in Standard sit down in time out and think about what they’ve done – as they explore lots of super-fun Tier 2-Tier 100 decks that make jumping back onto the ladder a gas. Sick and tired of ramping? They’ve got a cure! Wish you could just smash face? They have decks for that! PLUS: Questions from listeners, Meghan shows off some new purple hair, and Maria has a bone to pick with the British (for once in her life).
