Summary

This month's Galactic Council broke the system. They had two tournament related options, but the votes were split perfectly 50/50. So, we're just doing both! We start with a conversation about how all of the factions performed in this year's tournament and why they performed that way then follow it up with a discussion of the tournament drafts of yesteryear and how this year's faired. Then we get to be a bit theoretical and dream up some ideas for what we could expect from next year's tournament draft. Music provided by Ben Prunty.
