<3 the Courser of Kruphix shoutout!

Great cast, but you hit a miss on Titania, in my opinion. It's great in Lands or Cloudpost, because it can get back Glacial Chasm, and make a 5/3. And you can do a little combo with Karakas :cool:. You can even Devastating Dreams for X>3 and still get the 5/3s even if your Titania dies (I think).

[Barook]

You guys should have a closer look at Lejay's Sylvan Plug (http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/showthread.php?28759-Sylvan-Plug-%28or-whatever-splashed-Green-stompy%29) list - the deck is the real deal and regularly 4-0s or at least 3-1s in the DEs on MODO.

Titania is really great. At the very least, she gives you immediate value and if left unchecked, things get out of hand quickly. Don't be deceived by the 5-mana tag - in the right deck, she wrecks havok.

Really wanted to hear what nedleeds had to say about the deckname "Nic Fit"

[nedleeds]

You mean chalice green?

it's been around a while ... better things to zenith for and the saturation of blue might make it a good choice right now.

Yeah, Guys stop interrupting Sean. Looking at you Matt and Sam....

[thecrav]

Yeah, Guys stop interrupting Sean. Looking at you Matt and Sam....

TBF, I wasn't actually on the cast when that happened!

I actually cut the rant because it turned into about 20 minutes of tangents, including some words other listeners have complained about. I'll toss it on soundcloud or something early next week for you :P

[Jon]

Sweeeet. I love tangents and those words.

[nedleeds]

Directors cut?

[(nameless one)]

Are the tangents Magic related or are they about Sean palming basketballs?

[Whippoorwill]

Was disappointed to hear that Matt won't be at the Seattle Open next week. Also surprised you talked about Nahiri, but not the Equipment Clone since it's aggressively costed.

Also, Matt should really get around to trying out Siege Rhino, I think he might like it.

+1 for Sean rants as well.

[nedleeds]

Yeah that was failure. Trinket Mage'able any equipment is 'better' than Shitspelth. I don't think it's bonkers ... if you are copying your opponents equipment you'd probably rather remove it in many cases and thus pithing needle, manriki gusari would be better ... copying your own batterskull seems like win alot more.

[BBG|Scott-Spain]

Great episode! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[maharis]

We demand the rant! Also, lol on the edit job.

"Stop calling it Nic Fit! I need to go on a rant here—"

"I've also been playing the blue-black Tezzeret deck recently."

[ween]

Another great one guys.

You know you're doing something right when I would listen to you guys talk about any topic, the fact that the cast is about Magic is a huge plus.


I'll toss it on soundcloud or something early next week for you :P

Eeeee! :D

[thecrav]

Edited in <5 minutes so don't complain about quality:

Sean's brief nic-fit naming rant (http://seemsgood.com/mp3/EE33outtake.mp3)

Sean's brief nic-fit naming rant

[nedleeds]
