Disgruntled tournament reports are the best reports.

Another great cast, cheers.

Quit real life and do your podcasts full time? Seriously, you guys are awesome. This is the best legacy pod cast(for legacy players)out there.

I'm still patiently waiting for the next episode of Legacy/Vintage ramblings and BBQ discussion.

Thanks for the episode! That said, I'm going to go against the grain and say that I've prefer your strategy-oriented episodes (like the deep dives on Maverick and Enchantress). Team Tusk seemingly has a lot of good players with a passion for the diversity of Legacy & Vintage, and I'd love to hear more from you guys on actually playing the game. While I guess it's entertaining to hear Nedleeds call people apes and talk about buying extra playsets of power (:wink:), I feel like you guys hit your stride in the aforementioned episodes and that I came away with something more useful from them. There's obviously a place for this style of podcast (Leaving A Legacy does it particularly well), but when you aren't putting out episodes on a weekly basis, I feel it's better to focus on strategic substance.

Disagree whole heartedly. The reason we listen to this podcast is to hear Nedleeds call people Apes.

It's even better when he calls you one IRL.
