[Podcast] Everyday Eternal #8- Taking Control

[thecrav]

In episode eight of EverydayEternal, Matt Pavlic (sdematt), Jacob Kory (koby), Sean O’Brien (nedleeds), and Sam Craven (theCrav) discuss the second of Magic’s pillar archetypes; control. The cast talk about what a control deck is, including historical examples, how to play, and how to build. Non-blue mages need not fret; there’s plenty of discussion of other forms of control including Staxx’s taxing effects and Pox’s hand control.

Really good job with this one. Especially the ending, and I bet they're Alpha/Beta birds haha.

Sometimes I like to bait a stifle with a Fetch to clear the way for a more important trigger. I've seen combo take a control roll against other combo decks before, it happens quite a bit actually.

Thanks Sam for getting this together given your work schedule, alcoholism and addiction to swedish hentai pr0n!

i've never seen the Clique artwork as being hentai-esque, though there are plenty of limbs…

High point: the Clique joke, need more of this.

Low point: no mentioning of Abrupt Decay and how this card changes control decks.

As I said on EC, that's because it's part of this week's cast on midrange :)
