Episode 370: Modern Giveth, WOTC Taketh Away
from The Dive Down · host The Dive Down
The Rhino boys are back. Exciting news in the weird world of Magic: the Gathering was all it took for Dave and Stan to reunite with D00mwake to chat about Modern bans and unbans. We pour one out for Phlage, daydream about Crashing Footfalls, scrach our head over Umezawa's Jitte, and act like we know how to talk about Lotus Field. Is Modern back, baby?
