MTGCast #216 - From the Vault: Gavin
"You read it somewhere else, but you heard it here first!"
This Week in Magic
Join Tom, Jack and Gavin (yes, that Gavin!) for an unusually long podcast. We go over the official list of From the Vault: Relics and how it may be the most expensive FtV set to date. Tom salivates over the rules addition of Emblems (hoping for POISON!) to help clarify Elspeth's final ability. Check out your local M11 Game Day to get a free promo Lilliana's Specter or get Top 8 and score a full art promo Mitotic Slime! MTG appeared in an episode of Warehouse 13 and we also have the winners of the " Share Magic with Your Friends" contest that was linked to The Sorcerer's Apprentice. If you have DoTP and a gold Xbox live membership, you can play against the writers of Robot Chicken on Friday, July 26th at 6pm EST. MTG will be a big presence at the upcoming Dragon*Con!
What Have We Been Playing?
Gavin goes over some Standard musings (*hint* Destructive Force *hint*), Jack playing some more Two Scoops and Tom is hip deep in his Rat Tribal EDH deck rocking Patron of the Nezumi.
Listener Emails
Link to the fancy cube hardwood case, and SHARKTOPUS!
MTGCast News
