Some members of the podcast found themselves glued to the Pro Tour throughout its runtime. Other members found themselves trapped in a never ending purgatory above international waters. But all the members have plenty of opinions on the Pro Tour's return, the state of the Pioneer metagame, and when it's appropriate to forgive and forget.

As Bryan prepares for Cyclone Gabrielle and its impact on his plans to return to the US, he’s looking for thoughts and prayers from the Arena Decklists family. Unfortunately, Gerry has nothing to offer him but the hottest Standard deck lists around. You take what you can get, I guess.

Every card from Phyrexia: All Will Be One has been previewed and the hits keep coming. Gerry and Bryan do a deep two-hour dive on the newest cards, although a large chunk of that two hours is spent reminiscing about all the cool throwbacks in the set. Oops.

Gerry and Bryan are sitting down to take a look at All Will Be One, and early reviews are off the charts. Multi-format all-stars abound, and we're only starting to scratch the surface of this set. All this, plus the boys go for mani/pedis.

After spewing all their content last week and Magic having a slow week, Gerry and Bryan don’t have much to talk about except a relatively tame set of Modern results. Music: Mega Man 2 "Ending theme" Remix by zookun | Music composed by Manami Matsumae & Takashi Tateishi Timestamps: Amulet - 14:52 Archon of Cruelty - 17:27 Izzet Murktide - 22:36 Yawgmoth - 28:11 Hammer - 33:53 Keruga Elementals - 39:59 Goblins - 43:49 Storm Scale - 46:02 arenadecklists.gg patreon.com/arenadecklists twitch.tv/arenadecklists youtube.com/arenadecklists twitter.com/arenadecklists twitter.com/g3rryt twitter.com/bryango

Once again, it’s been a year. Gerry and Bryan gather round the virtual fireside for a little chat, reviewing EVERY SINGLE Magic release this year. Obviously, this takes about three hours.

It’s a bold direction, but Gerry and Bryan decided to have a cozy podcast with zero discourse. Recent Standard events make it seem like Standard is in a great place, so they break down the format and the successful archetypes. And, because they can’t help themselves, they also talk about discourse.

It’s time for new Magic cards! Again! The boys are catching up with Phyrexia’s latest attempt to conquer the multiverse as only they can—with plenty of detours, twists, and turns along the way. Plus, a truly disturbing discovery in the art of an old classic.

In the wake of a banning and an artifact-themed set, how has Modern been shaping up? The answer will surprise you, because it sure surprised the hell out of us.

This week, Gerry cruelly goads Bryan into an episode of mono-hot takes. Is the stack empty? Is capitalism a shining beacon of truth, ensuring that only the best products get made and sold? Is Alchemy the best format in Magic? No… but we’ll talk about it all anyway!

Meta-game data from the first RC is now flowing thanks to some hard work from the community, and the boys have plenty to weigh in on. How insufferable will Bryan be after Lotus Field showed up as the top performing deck? What archetype was a complete and total scam? Why do both boys think the biggest gainer on the weekend was Mono-Green Devotion... with a 48% win-rate?!? Listen and find out!

Gerry and Bryan want to get excited about Brothers' War, but with barren Standard tournament attendance and no Standard streamers on Twitch, where are new cards supposed to go to get showcased? Is it time to give up and make every set Modern Horizons? The boys make due with what they've got and share their stories from Standard and even talk a little Pioneer in advance of the upcoming Regional Championship. Music: Mega Man 2 "Ending theme" Remix by zookun | Music composed by Manami Matsumae & Takashi Tateishi Timestamps: Why aren't people playing Standard? - 7:22 Standard metagame - 22:32 Is Black still dominant? - 28:57 Other decks Gerry looked at - 37:22 Limited - 50:55 Pioneer - 58:46 arenadecklists.gg patreon.com/arenadecklists twitch.tv/arenadecklists youtube.com/arenadecklists twitter.com/arenadecklists twitter.com/g3rryt twitter.com/bryango

With the boys hitting levels of pre-release excitement not seen for quite some time, they're queuing up a new approach for their review of the "best" cards in The Brothers' War. Hear, in no particular order, the 10ish cards that got their creative juices flowing and have them stoked to play with Magic's latest set!
