Apologies for the extreme wait time for some new content, but we've got a long, info-packed one for you here!This time we're covering both the Murders at Karlov Manor and brand new Fallout sets that have released since our last episode. Most of this won't be new info to you as the cards have been spoiled already but perhaps you'll gain a new perspective on some cards that you didn't see yourself!Enjoy the show!

This time the guys get together to continue their "best of" series, this time looking at a portion of the many artifacts you'll see in a given game of cEDH!

We're introducing a new series!

"Brewmaster Chat" is a bit of a double entendre which can refer to brewing beer and also brewing up MTG decks. As such, we're going to introduce a craft brew we'll be drinking during the episode, and then going on to compare and contrast a deck that we brewed using the same commander, but is about 17 cards different.

Kirk’s Deck:

"Omnath Zomblink"

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/YI89NvUezkqE1rP2KQHptQ

Izlain’s Deck:

"Peer into the Storm"
