Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week we're live and in person at Grand Prix: D.C. where I finished in the Top 100 and still had some time to chat with some of today's biggest names. Inside we talk about the cost of Standard decks rising, ROE versus ZEN Limited, the power of Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund and much more. Let's go!
Special thanks to all my guests. You guys are awesome.
Until next time, Magic players, this is Evan Erwin. Tapping the cards... so you don't have to!
