MTGCast #164 - Beyond Hippodrome
"You read it somewhere else, but you heard it here first!"
This Week in Magic
We have pictures of all four Planechase decks along with being able to see the names of each oversized Plane card, watch for them on 9/4/09 for MSRP of $19.99 and will also have release events. Australia, Japan and Spain had their Nationals this weekend and saw a lot of Elves, Faeries and 5-color Blood. The Zendikar novel has been spotted, titled " Zendikar: In the Teeth of Akoum" to be released on 4/6/2010. Great article by Mark Rosewater introducing Flavor Week discussing his favorite "Un-" cards. Check out the latest podcast on Richard Garfield's podcast, Gaming with Garfield, to hear his thoughts on the M10 rule changes and more magic thoughts!
