Hello and welcome to a very special episode of the EDH recast. I'm your host, Joey Schultz, and right now I am not joined by my fantastic co-hosts because I'm here for a super short intro of what this episode

is all about. This is a Challenge the Stats extravaganza episode, a compilation of some of our

favorite under and overplayed cards throughout the cast's 300 episodes. Better be ready to jot down

some notes on this episode because you are guaranteed to hear about some really cool synergies from us, from Friends of the Show, and from listeners.

I don't want to keep you waiting too long, so real quick, I'd like to thank our show's sponsors.

This episode is brought to you by Dragon Shield, who make excellent, durable card sleeves to protect your decks.

I am a very heavy mash shuffler, so I need sleeves that don't split, but which still move smoothly, and Dragon Shield has never let me down. Plus, if you click the link in the description, you can get a hold of our EDH RETCast exclusive sleeves. They are so fantastic. The design of them is so slick. For the listening audience who don't have a visual, think Dark Side of the Moon vibes. Again, you can get a hold of those sleeves on Dragon Shield's website, linked in the

description. And to do Dana Proud here, thanks for listening while I spieled all about

Dragon Shield. And of course, this show is brought to you by you, our fantastic listeners

and supporters on Patreon, without whom this entire show would not be remotely possible.

We love giving our patrons their EDH recognition, doing fun, EDH reconnaissance, and enjoying

some good old-fashioned EDH recreation with them too.

And, you know, funny enough, one of the many perks that we offer to our supporters on Patreon,

in addition to things like access to our Discord, is our spreadsheet of the entire history of challenge the stats picks throughout the show. You got to think over

360 episodes, usually three challenges per episode. There's like a thousand challenges we've

done over the history of this cast. So you could say this here video, this compilation

episode, is a little amuse-bush to wet your appetite. So if you want more where this came from,

consider supporting us on Patreon, if that makes sense for you. And there are tons of free ways to help support the show, and every bit matters. The likes and subscribes do honestly make all the difference to help us out on YouTube. Only about half of the folks who watch the channel are subscribed. So if you want more, consider hitting those buttons to get more cool content like this. We love hearing from you in the comments, and it is always such a treat

when we see someone has left us a podcast review too. And of course, we can't forget one of our favorite things, and that is the Patreon shoutout. So I hope you'll all join me in thanking our patron member, Lee Green, for their support of the show. Lee Green, thank you so so much for your support.

Your last name is awesome.

That's a great color to play,

although I do think it would be really ironic
