We've brought on Phyrexian language expert, Bella Guo, from Wizards of the Coast to teach us about the language of our favorite bionecromechanical horrors! Listen along as we attempt to speak the names of Phyrexians and their compleated masterpieces with our fleshy, weak mouths!

240 - Phyrexian Language with Bella Guo

We begin discussing the story of March of the Machine with episodes 1 through 6 by K Arsenault Rivera, picking up after the failed strike at the heart of Phyrexia where our heroes failed and the multiverse's fate seemed sealed to annihilation, and ending with the return of hope in the protector in white. With the multiverse hanging in the balance, how will the march of the machine be stopped?

242 - The Story of March of the Machine, Part 2

Magic: The Gathering Parody of "Back at It" by Trunxks.

Lyrics:
Go to Battle, engage the seige 
Hold nothing back, leave no reprieve
Fightin coast to coast to seven seas
Claim this plane, transform the free

We’re gon battle out in the wildernesses
Relentless pressure, don’t seek forgiveness
Anything less than success is weakness
Beatdowns abound; these grounds repleted

Red zones heated; I’m quakin’ magma
I’m spittin’ fire; that’s baked miasma
I’m global warming, I’ll make ya spasm
When I melt the ice of your glacial chasm

On Zendikar, say, “au revoir”
You’re Tommy Pickles, I’m Reptar
I’m slappin’ hedrons, I’ll pay no heed
I’m crowned the king, I’ll bend your knees

On Ravnica, I’ll ravage ya
I’ll bash the guilds, I’ll lather up
Glistening oil; I’ll slather ya
Compleat this battle, Praetors’s touch

Mercadia? Oh hey, what up?
I’ll pirate stomp your ports to dust
I’ll tap your down, I’ll spin ‘round
I’ll bounce your islands, I’ll make ya gush

On Kaldesh, I’mma make a mess
I’ll aetherflux their local press
I’ll crash the fair, these steampunks 
Will all be one; Phyrexia

Dominaria, a safari of
Sleeper agents tryin to party
Like Mardi Gras with Mamma Norn
Infect you right down to your core.

[Chorus Repeat]
[Chorus Repeat]

In Strixhaven, I’m Silverquill
Drip ink like oil; make it spill
Jab my pen right through your solar plexus 
The Bib-bloplex, is now Phyrexan

On New Capenna, I bring militias
I’m a carnivore and I’m on a mission
Your pescatarian; sleep with the fishes
Brick Wall Balzano? No resistance

On Innistrad, I am a god
I’m Avacyn meets Atraxa
I’m Griselbrand on bath salts
Phyrexia’s your Helvault

On Eldraine, I’m insane
I’ll ingrain the King slain
A steel frame; wiry complexion,
His name is Kenrith, King Perfected

On Ixalan, conquistadors
Will taste perfection and bleed for more
Unsheath their swords, lay down their sabres
They’ll praise their god; I am their maker

On Kamigawa, imma light em up
I’m a technological cyberpunk
I’m Jin gitaxias, I’ll probe ya ass
Ask Tamiyo, compleationist

Good Morning Magic, with Gavin Verhey?
I’ll drink his coffee, I’ll eat his parfait
I’ll change his wifi, I’ll block his driveway
I’ll burn his yarn since he loves to crochet
I’ll steal his deck box, I’ll pet his puppy
I’ll X his files like Dave Duchovny
I’ll fly to Renton, I’ll head to WoTCay
Imma power creep, they’ll design me one day

[Chorus Repeat]
[Chorus Repeat]

I’m droppin’ bombs on Gobakhan,
I’m end this fast like Ramadan
I’ll char the land like I’m crispin’ flan
I’mma mix and batter til all are one

On Belenon, I’mma a mastodon
I’ll end these knights; that’s denouement
I’m the elephant that’s in room
I’ll tusk your guts; intestine soup

I’m on top of Theros like an Angel’s halo
I’ll glaze the tip of Nylea’s arrow
Glistening oil infuse your air flow
Intoxicate ya bone marrow

On Amonkhet, I’mma make ya sweat
All resisters will taste regret
I’ll brand your face with Phyrexya’s crest
And claim the heart of Hazoret

I’ll dive down to Arcavios
I’ll snap the snout of Beledros
I’ll steal the scrolls of Velomachus
I have no ethics; Clarence Thomas

I’m on Fiora, where I’ll Implore ya
To stand down or face the horror
Of getting gored by minotaur; a
Savage roar of Vorinclex, 
who spares no mercy nor respect 
for your relatives or interests; 
this vivisect will cut you deep; 
oil seeps through your eyes to see
Your better now, you’ve all been freed
You’ve all been healed, miraculously
ForceofPhil; what it do; entreat
Phyrexia is now compleat

[Chorus Repeat]
[Chorus Repeat]

Battle — Seige
