0:18.3

Kicking things off with the owner of of Emptygoldfish, Richard.

How are you this fine Monday, Richard? Good morning, Seth. Doing well, getting ready for Strick's Haven early access this week. It's almost time. Wednesday, early access. Check it out over on Twitch. I assume, Crim, are you going to do some early accessing? Are you going to be live too at some point? Yeah, check it out. We'll be having fun, checking out all the new cards because this set looks super sweet. And we all, of course, have another hosting, Grim. Good morning, Grim. How's it going today? It goes well. Yeah, just excited getting to Stricks Haven, see what we can and can't break in this standard format. Looks like there's going to be some good, is it, cards and some other things, too. Shocking. I've been working on brews because it's almost time. And oh, my God, there's so many badger mold cub decks. I keep building decks with green cards. I'm like, oh, I should probably add badgerill cup to that deck. So I have like 10 decks that are very different, but they all have badramal cups in them and I feel bad.

1:12.3

But anyway, that's a Wednesday problem. For today, we got a fun one. We're going to be talking about secrets of the saving and the best cards of the set, but we're going to do this in a little different way than normal. We're going to play some janker gems. So the idea of this is someone on the crew is going to pitch a secret to a saving card in a format, and we're going to decide if the card is jank and unplayable, or if maybe it's a gem, and it can actually show up in that format. But before we get to that, we got some sponsors. Our show today is brought to you by Card Conduit, the easiest way to sell your magic cards.
