Episode 199: RC Atlanta: Final Prep feat. darthjacen - a podcast by The Dive Down

The anticipation is almost over. What started as a blink our collective eye way back in the spring has come to pass. It's time for RC Atlanta. As the rhino boyz prepare to head down to Dreamhack to... cover(?)... the event, we turn to new friend of the show Sky Mason, aka darthjacen, from Playing Pioneer to help us work through the latest decks, trends, and strategies for Pioneer. It's a great final discussion on a format that has come back to prominence this year.
But before all that, we have a special announcement — The Dive Down is excited to announce that we've launched our own custom merch store!
