I'm pulling out of my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for their drive to work.

Okay, so today, I am talking all about the set nemesis. So one of my goals with this podcast is to have a

podcast on every magic expansion. And I've covered a lot of them, but I've not covered all of them. I recently did a podcast on Mercadian masks. So it's only appropriate to do the second set in the Riccateus mask blocks, which is Nemesis. Okay, so a little start with some factoids, code name Euripides. It's 143 cards, 55 common, 44 uncommon, 44-uncommon, 44-Rare.

I'm sorry, 53 commons, 44-un-common, 44-Rars.

So this is before we had Mythic Rare, so there's no Mythic Rare on these.

And, oh, I think 55 is correct.

So anyway, it's 143 total.

The expansion symbol is the axe of Krovax.

Krovax plays a major role in this set,

which we will get into in a second.

And so his axe is the symbol.

So the set was designed.

The design team was led by Mike Elliott,

included Bill Rose and myself,

and the development team was led by Mike.

So Mike led both the design and the development. And Charlie Kattino, Paul Peterson, and the development team was led by Mike. So Mike led both the design and the development.

And Charlie Coutino, Paul Peterson, and Tewin Woodruff were the development team.

Which says to me, by the way, looking at this, is I believe we're at a point in time

we're getting very tight on R&D.

Because Charlie and Paul and Tain, none of which were full-time magic people.

They all occasionally worked on magic.

But the core magic team was Mike Elliott, Bill Rose, William Jockish, Henry Stern, and myself.
