Salt Can be Fun, Two Turtles, and Ready for cEDH? | HSM 227
Episode 234
Show notes
Salt can be fun but sometimes you need to power down to experience it, TMNT simply has too much synergy, and Mike and Tony are curious boys who like to learn about story titles but it upsets Sam.
Also, Sam thinks he has a green thumb with hot peppers (even though he stresses out his plants), Tony's dad actually has a green thumb, and Mike used to have a pet turtle.
Stay Salty!
Sam, Mike, & Tony

Mini Masters, Backsies, and Maliciousness or Incompetence | HSM 226
Episode 233
Show notes
A mini masters event is supposedly single elimination, the art of when to accept or deny backsies (our new favorite word), and not announcing cards is cool when you aren't sure your opponents know what is going on.
Also, Sam walks us through a new an innovative deck building process where claims he actually knows how to finish decks now.
