Is Infect Too Strong Now? | Bonus Episode
2616
Show Notes: Poison counters are back in Phyrexia: All Will Be One and with them returns the age-old Commander question: Is infect too strong? Sure, 10 is a lot less than 40, but is it actually easier to pull off? This episode, our poison expert Craig “Mr. Infect” Blanchette joins the table to discuss the power of poison in EDH. Does the new “Toxic” ability affect whether the poison counter rule should be raised to 15 or even 20? Tune in and find out. -------- Support the show and become a Patron!

2022 Year In Review | #506
10593
Show Notes: 2022 is done, and it’s time to lay everything out on the table. (Yes, even 30th Anniversary Edition!) It’s been a year of new hosts, new events, new controversies, but most of all, lots and lots and LOTS of products. It might be fair to say that 2022 has had more Magic: the Gathering than any year in the history of the game.  This episode, we join together to go over the highs and lows of the year, giving our opinions on how things have gone and our hopes for what the future may bring. There’s a lot to cover so let’s jump into the 2022 year in review! (Note: The number we stated for “new commanders printed this year” was incorrect. We said there were 383. The actual number is 362. We inadvertently included "acorn symbol" non-legal legends in our original count.) -------- Support the show and become a Patron!
