This week we discuss how long we have been playing Magic, identify our favorite MTG colors, and discuss our favorite formats.  We then recount our experience at FNM and Game Day revealing the first ever Cast Champio.  The cast then highlights the recent success of local Legacy Master Michael Derczo and we hash out the results of GP San Diego that occurred both on and off the table.  After tournament talk we turn to a discussion of FTV Angels and the Community Cup.  During our community cup chat Brian and Junaid make a fateful bet*.  Brian also offers up this weeks five minutes of flavor in which he heaps excessive praise on Vorthos Mike and MTG artist r.k. post.  We end the cast with an overview of Zeki’s Deckis for Eternal Weekend and Brian’s experience at the local county fair.
