The Magic Show #100 – Discussions with Patrick Chapin

This week we tackle the monstrous changes that are coming to our game this fall, all filtered through the brilliant mind of Patrick Chapin. You also get a full deck tech on his latest block deck, Burnt Toast featuring the ‘best’ command, Incendiary Command.
Since we generally agree on the changes, I thought you’d be more interested in these thoughts as well as his opinions on Vintage, helping White, and more!

And here is Patrick Chapin full-blown Deck Tech on his latest creation, Burnt Toast:

Here is his latest build of Burnt Toast (just slightly different from the video, and includes a sideboard):
