      Generally the things Prof is critical of aren't the things Gavin controls at WotC. I would guess Gavin agrees with Prof on a lot of his points, he's just powerless to change anything but card design.

      @danielkuttel7867 Před 11 měsíci +2

      I think he has more of a history with Magic. He's accomplished a lot there, including his tragic loss in a championship to nasty topdecking. I was happy to see Brian back on MTG a while ago, but now he and Olivia and a few other MTG CZcamsrs are so omnipresent that it's almost annoying. Nothing against Brian, but he and Olivia are sometimes too narcissistic and arrogant.

      @@ariannadravis3934 not really. every land that comes in tapped and does not provide any significant impact means you are playing part of your turn one turn later. eg akoum refuge will only gain you 1 life which is irrelevant unless you rely on lifegain triggers. temple of deceit will give you scry 1 but if you already have topdeck manipulation this is probably not worth it. etc. some cards opponents will play will exploit the fact that those are non-basics (think blood moon) or you will not get the benefit of the "downside" of opponents card (like path to exile) or you diminish effects of your own cards (like glacial fortress). it's of course case by case scenario but as a rule of thumb starting with as many lands that come into play untapped (which in most cases will be basics due to $$$) and then adding taplands will get you better play experience and make it easier to arrive at tapped/untapped ratio you are happy with.

    What a fantastic episode. I love the chemistry between both giants and Battlebond is a wonderful set. When Battlebond 2 comes out, please reassemble these legendary warriors to shuffle up and play!

    Great episode! Fun chemistry between the guests, super fun to see a box of battlebond used for the gameplay rather than the value.

    My buddy and I went into a battlebond event together. He's a certified magic judge, he'd been playing for like 8 years, I had been playing for probably 3 months, with no card game experience before magic. I had always considered going wide and combat tricks very funny. He is a combo player at heart but can rock any playstyle. He HEAVILY advised not playing combat tricks, but we built our decks just on suggested colors as to not clue the table in on what we were building. All I said was "I like black, and I guess I have a lot of red". I built SO MANY combat tricks just cus I had a handful of good cards but not really anything that screamed a strong line of play. I was looking at my cards and eventually realized I had opened and immediately disregarded Sentinel Tower, and I looked across the table with this huge grin. He immediately knew I had funny combat tricks, but had definitely found a funny line, and as long as he built decent we'd be in good shape. He ended up building an izzet creature aggro and combo deck that didn't do either one super well, but with me pumping his creatures and pinging down opponents creatures so he could swing for face, we ended up DOMINATING. I forget if we placed first or second but it was such a memorable experience, exploring the game and different mechanics, polishing my very rough deck building skills, and expanding my style out of goofy and into goofy but strategic, absolutely bullying other teams that had judges, players with 5-10 years of experience each, etc who always looked down on me and plays I found interesting or exciting USING THOSE PLAYS. Extremely satisfying. Godzilla/Kaiju/Ikorea got me into magic, but I think Battlebond really had a big impact on how I build and play, and why I still play
