    [Podcast] Everyday Eternal #2 - Deathblade

    In the second episode of Everyday Eternal, Matt Pavlic (sdematt), Jacob Kory (koby), Sean O’Brien (nedleeds), and Sam Craven (theCrav) discuss the results of the most recent Star City Opens, with a focus on the newest bully on the Legacy playground, Deathblade.

    We also spend some time with our thoughts on Modern Masters and GP Vegas. Check it out here!

    Re: [Podcast] Everyday Eternal #2 - Deathblade

    I don't have the time to listen to this yet, or maybe I will while doing my readings for my online history class, but I wanted to share some thoughts I posted in the "Going on a Limb" thread regarding Deathblade:

    Quote Originally Posted by Me
    Going on a limb #2: Deathblade/Todd winning SCG this weekend should be an indicator of how underplayed aggro is in the format, especially Affinity. I don't even run Etched Champion anymore, but if I ran my previous builds that focused on hitting my opponent with an unblockable 10/2, I could easily plow through Deathblade like it was a fat chick since the only way that deck can connect a hit with a Jitte while I have Etched Champion in play is using its 1-of Clique, in which the Deathblade player might as well be playing the lottery.
    Seriously, you could take a suboptimal build like the one I just described (believe it or not, Etched Champion is suboptimal) and run train on Deathblade. Nedleeds (ha!) to say, I can beat Deathblade badly with what I run now. But the fact that Deathblade is just Esperblade minus Lingering Souls and EE surprises me that Affinity players haven't been wetting themselves in the pants to know one of their matchups just got pathetically easier.

    Looking forward to hearing the podcast, and nedleed's ranting (I like angry characters on podcasts, the contrast makes the podcast less boring and more engaging).

    Thanks for the feedback Shawon. We'll be sure to give Sean an extra minute to froth at the mouth for this week's recording.

    I tried to make the podcast incompatible with all Apple devices because of my undying hatred for that company and all their followers, but then Koby couldn't listen to it. We are recording episode 3 prior to me going to suffer through WWZ -- which will surely illicit some raging.

    Really awesome content, guys. The MM and Playmat rants were hilarious, specially the bit about tearing up their Tombstalker

    I also appreciated the SCG open discussion, which pretty much sums up my disgust at Double Standard/Sealed Standard weekends. While I live in another country, live video coverage is a great way to pass time on boring sundays.

    Looking forward to the next podcast,
    keep it up!

    I'll have to listen to these at work tomorrow! I tried to listen to the first episode but had issues with the audio quality, have you guys been making any progress on that?

    Recording after you get back from WWZ would probably be more entertaining, but obviously more logistically obnoxious.

    Ha ha ha, story about Steve Argyle had me laughing. He's actually a really nice guy, but I'm surprised he let you walk away w/ a mat at $20 – he wants $50 for mythic rare artist's proofs. (To be fair, he only charges like $2 or something for the commons.)
    The proper plural must be "hall of fames." You wouldn't say Halls & Oate, now, would you?

    No he was super cool ... he actually used to print playmats of all his art -- including shit he did for the Star Wars RPG (fucking Vader). But he got C&Ded by Luca$Art$$$$$ and Wotc. Anyway, I was desperate and needed a mat so blood covered japanese cumslut it was. He actually had a broken hand but had a stamp made for gencon to still at least sign stuff for people; he works has ass off going from show to show.

    Re: [Podcast] Everyday Eternal #2 - Deathblade

    Yeah, he totally had his stuff together for when I saw him recently (at Spectrum). There's a handful of artists I like running into because they're open and chatty; he's one of 'em.

    Unfortunately, I couldn't afford to buy anything from him this go around; I'll get him next year (or in July, if he'll be at Comic-Con). As ridiculous as it is, I really want a Chandra Ablaze artist's proof; the more I think about it, the more I rationalize the $50 price tag. I'm really bad at numbers and money, obviously. That's the nice thing about going to cons consistently ... eventually, you've got all the stuff you really, really wanted and you're down to the stuff you just really want.

    Really love the content, and the end banter was really entertaining.
    My only constructive criticism is editing out the 1-2 second pauses before people jump in. I understand you guys aren't sitting around a room together, so it's a little awkward trying to judge when people are going to finish their sentence. This is probably something that will just fix itself with time anyways, as you all get more comfortable with how people speak.
    Good stuff overall, excited for the 3rd.

    There's a random 5 second pause in the middle of the podcast that I just noticed, but this is due to a musical spot that was going to be there, but wasn't.

    Next podcast's discussion is also very interesting. Stay tuned!
