    Top 8 Magic: Grand Finals Deck Review: Omnathematics

    Top 8 Magic: Grand Finals Deck Review: Omnathematics

    The decklists are not fully revealed at the time of this recording but the metagame has been made public and many players have already shared their lists on social media. Omnath is towering over Standard with 72% of the field playing either one of the two big decks that have sprung up around the elemental. Only NINE players chose to play without it in Standard.

    Omnath has even nabbed the top of the metagame list for Historic at 34%, pushing Jund Sacrifice, Rakdos Arcanist and Goblins, which had been such a big part of the last event down into much smaller percentages of the field.

    Brian David-Marshall and Magic: The Gathering Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz talk their way through the metagame breakdowns, look at the various publicly known lists, and make their predictions for who they think will emerge on top of the insanely competitive field.

    With less than a week until the Grand Finals Brian David-Marshall and Magic: The Gathering Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz discuss the state of Standard post-Uro ban and pre-grand reveal of the 32 Standard decks the players will bring to the virtual tables.

    Topics include:

    Has the over/under on the number of Omnath's changed?

    Why aren't people playing Arboreal Grazer in their Omnath lists?

    Red Bull Qualifier decklist discussion.

    What does the Walking Dead Secret Lair mean?

    Has WotC lost our trust?

    Has the Free to Play Arena business model hurt Magic?

    Why are the NY Giants and the NFC East soooooo bad right now?

    Top 8 Magic: Mythic Invitational Deck Review

    Top 8 Magic: Mythic Invitational Deck Review

    Normally Brian David-Marshall and Magic Hall of Famer Zvi Mowshowitz would be doing a preview show for the Mythic Invitational -- showcasing the Arena-only Historic format -- but with the decks being revealed so close to the starter pistol for the event that was not possible. Instead they are looking through the decks while the early rounds of the event play out in the background.

Makes me want to move to NYC

Mike and BDM have just the best banter in MTG podcasting. Plus, stuff about basketball I never knew I would find interesting, and a non-stop introduction to the NYC food scene.
