Welcome to Episode 52! 
In today's episode, we talk about ending a game in the ultimate draw, playing someone's deck for them, salty sideboarding, and chaotic counter spells.
 
We also revisit our bacon thoughts and Sam reveals his salsa recipe. We swear this episode isn't all about food.

Welcome to Episode 51! 
Mike is away this week, so we have our first ever Tony and Pat episode!
In today's episode, we talk about a level of salt that we hope no one ever has to face. We also talk about taking advantage of the board state with a Mycosynth Lattice, when to cast alternate wincons to avoid salt, and drawing the game. 
 
We also chat about our first impressions of the new LotR set, and Sam gives M Night Shyamalan a piece of his mind.
