Episode 113: Post-Ban Plans: Small Samples, Big Conclusions - a podcast by The Dive Down

from 2021-02-26T01:00

:: ::

So what next? This week The Three Friends talk about each of our favorite formats in the wake of what some have claimed is the biggest set of bans in MTG history. Is it? We don't know. BUT. We do know that there's new (and old) stuff going on in Modern, Historic, and Pioneer. We will be giving you a Break Down of ALL THREE formats, talk about our experiences playing the formats, and, of course, tell you what we'd play. Shane and Stan pivot table it up while Dave just reads some line graphs out loud. It's can't miss audio content!
The Break Down: First ModernThe Break Down II: Then Historic
The Break Down III: Then PioneerThe Break Down IV: Yep, All Three
