I'm pulling out the parking lot. We all know what that means. It's time for another

the drive to work. Okay, so today is another in my series, Lessons Learned. So what this is about

is I look at sets I've led and I talked about what I learned from them. So we are up to

cons of Tarkir. So this set had a very interesting history.

Let me talk to sort of the history, and I learned a lot from it.

So this should be an interesting podcast.

Okay, first and foremost, let's talk about where we started from.

So what happened was we knew we were going to, at the time, this is back

when we still did three sets in a block. And what we did is every other year, the second

set was a large set. Now we've shifted to a whole system where there's two large sets a year,

but at the time what we did is the fall set was always large, the winter set was almost always

small, and then the spring set vacillated between being large and being small. And so this year

it was going to be a large, and the constant tarquita year is going to be a large. So we're going to have a large set, a small set, and a large set.

And I wanted to try something a little different.

So I was intrigued by the idea of having the little set, the small set,

drafted with both the large sets.

Traditionally, the way we've done it in the past was we would do a large set in the fall.

All this is obviously northern hemisphere.

We would do a set in the fall, then we would do a small set in the winter and we would draft them together.

And then if we did a large set in the spring, we tended to drafted by itself

and usually be a mechanical reboot.

So I knew I wanted to do mechanical reboot,
