This Week in Magic
We have had a week to mull over the big announcement of "Magic 2010" or "M10" that is the major changes to core set with Tom, Gavin and Eric weighing in on the changes. Tom was also able to grab Aaron Forsythe for a 30 minute interview about M10! PT: Kyoto was this weekend with Gabriel Nassif declared champion. And Tom and Gavin are both attending GP: Chicago and flexing their Legacy muscles. We also discuss the changes to the Wizards Player support phone line hours, a new "viral" MTG ad, and we know of two more angels for the upcoming Duel Decks: Divine vs. Demonic (April 10th) with Akroma, Angel of Wrath and Luminous Angel.
