  3. Boldly Going Where Magic Hasn't Gone Before

    Season 6, Episode 347

    Show notes

    This week we cover the biggest news in trading card games. Konami's staged Yu-Gi-Oh banlist sets off jokes and market panic, and we dig into why the Flesh and Blood: Outbreak trailer works so well: the music, the visuals, the clear lore, plus our guesses about the set. Ricky recaps his RC trip, from an underwhelming atmosphere to a last-minute switch to a wild Darklight Phoenix-style Modern brew and where it finished. We react to the no-change B&R announcement across Standard, Pioneer and Modern, look at new Pioneer decks, and argue over whether Wizards should put Modern cards on notice before banning them. Then Star Trek teaser season starts, with rapid-fire mechanic speculation and guesses at the flavor home runs. We wrap up with a Patreon question: which AC/DC song should play during a Road House-style bar fight? Don't forget Extra Life 11/7!
