Hello everybody, and welcome to the last of three hour-long talks recorded on the Carnival Ecstasy a few weeks ago. Yes, even though most didn't get the chance to go that doesn't mean you can't take in the discussions had while at sea. In this hour-long discussion, we hear Pro Player mega-personality Patrick Chapin and his thoughts on Conflux, Standard, and the power of the Fae. Enjoy!
Special thanks to Patrick Chapin and Legion Events.
