Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week we're live and at Pro Tour: Honolulu, soaking up the sights, sounds and sun as we talk about the block constructed format, how Cascade came to be (and how the pros feel about it), and lots, lots more. Let's go!
Special thanks to all of my guests who took the time to talk to me. My apologies on the delay, but I'd rather get it done right than simply get it done.
Next time we'll talk about combo in formats, the loss of mana burn, how Pikula was robbed, the myriad of incredible answers to the mulligan question, and a ton more. Oh, and those new rules thingies. They sound like something we should talk about too.
So until next time Magic players, this is Evan Erwin. Tapping the cards... so you don't have to.
