Say hello to our guest co-host, Eric of “Mr. Suitcase”!
Conflux Scuttlebutt
Tom, Gavin and Eric go over some of their favorite cards to date. Tom loves him some Bloodhall Ooze and everyone agrees that Progenitus just rocks. Hard. Check out these and more on the MTGS unofficial Conflux Spoiler. And a link to card scans of Bloodhall Ooze and Nicol Bolas.
This Week in Magic
Congratulation to Gavin for his 13th place finish at Grand Prix: LA, earning $500, pro points, and an invite to PT: Honolulu! He talks about his deck, some other key archetypes that made a showing and more. Also congrats to Conley Woods of The Magic School Bus for a Day 2, #114 showing!
Rumors abound regarding a potential MTG MMO after it being mentioned as the third project of Turbine (D&D MMO, LoTR MMO) on a popular video MMO cast. Check out the discussion and link to the actual show. The official WoTC Conflux mini-site is now live. Get your MTG on your iGoogle with the new planeswalker themes. The Conflux novel is rumored to be coming with an alternate art Jace, to further cement him as the “poster boy” of magic. And the WoTC 10th Edition draft simulator is alive and well with new packs being added on Mondays.
