Hello, everyone and welcome to episode 562 of the MTV Goldfish podcast.

I'm Seth, probably better known to Safraud Olive, and we have this small crew here

this week.

Crem's traveling.

He's over in Korea.

Richard, he's also traveling.

But he's joining us from the middle of the night over in China. Good evening, Richard. How are things? Good morning. The day has crossed over for me, Seth. I'm in the future. It's actually 12.30 a.m. it's almost it's almost exactly exactly the opposite then, because it's like 11.30 a.m. here. So you're like half a day ahead of me. But, uh, but yes, we got some fun stuff to talk about today. We're going to talk first impressions of Avatar. We both got to play some early access last week. And I got some thoughts about this. I want to talk a little bit about the design of the set, some of the things I liked about it. Then we got new promos. We got some Spider-Man news, some questions about brawl. Might talk a little bit about pre-modern and then answer some fish mail questions. So Avatar, new standard jumping around a little bit. Before we get to all that, a reminder that we had a couple of sponsors today. Our show is brought to you by Card Conduit, the easiest way to sell your magic cards.

And let's talk some magic and let's start with Avatar. So Richard, I know you played some early access because I actually ran into you at one point. I think you're in today's budget magic getting smacked by my is it lesson deck. I didn't even do anything that game. You actually did not do anything that game, which I for a minute and I was like, is he throwing this? Does he know I'm recording and he's just throwing the match? I was like, hopefully he's just running really poorly. So I know you're playing

firebending. What do you think of firebending? What do you think of avatar? Uh, firebending's broken.

I'm going to go with that. Uh, I mean, what, when it works, it's disgusting. So, you know,

you can turn three or turn four kill people, no problem.

The problem is the plan B of the deck doesn't exist, right?

So all good decks have a good plan B.

I'm going to need a better deck builder to build that.

But I was playing, what's the two job?
