Errata Sonata

The lost episode from our three part series. Ian talks a lot about not digimon. We will be resuming our regularly scheduled digimon content in the coming weeks so please look forward to that.

Forewarning to all our listeners this episode has very minimal digimon talk. Noah and Ian have been very busy so they had lots to catch up on. Hopefully you still enjoy listening to us talk.

We’re back baby! You get one digimon episode this month so you better like it! Ian has been travelling so we talk about the digimon happenings since he’s been gone. Big things happening in both our lives so we hope you understand the small break we’re taking during this time.

Noah comes home from a ex06 case tournament using Numemon. He shares his thoughts on the matter and we discuss the boogeyman.

Short episode today while we do a little bit of catch up. We spend some time talking about the latest happenings and get excited for the next episode where we plan to talk more about digimon.

Eric is back! Noah brings up intentional draws and how he feels about them in a competitive scene.

We have a special guest, the one who brought our favourite card game into our lives. Eric joins us to discuss digimon now that we have gone full circle on his favourite season of digimon.

Bt15 is ending. Ian’s back in Canada. There is so much to be sad about. We discuss digimon judges failing their playerbase and losing faith in the system. Ian talks about his Alaska trip. And we wait with bated breath to see what happens in bt16.

More Julian! More Scooby Doo! More heroine! We discuss future set ideas, particularly game sets such as Digimon Survive.

Ian’s special friend is back! Julian joins the podcast this episode to discuss downplaying your deck. Do people you know tell you their deck is worse than it is? Maybe someone has told you MirageGaogamon needs more support. Come join our support group on this episode of Errata Sonata.

Todays episode is all about keywords. What colours have what keywords, what keyword combos are scary, what we want to see, and how keywords impact the game. Also Ian’s a beard man now.

In this episode we talk about timers being implemented into the digimon trading card game. Ian tells us what new old JRPG he’s been playing. Noah wants robots to be our judges as well as make our art and feed us food.

We discuss a new ruleset for timeout procedures in digimon. It has big implications for slower decks if it makes its way to us.

We decided the divide our viewers this episode. We talk about AI, unaffected digimon, “pot-fillers”, we continue to complain about crimson blaze and red hybrid. Noah discusses his deck decision making leading up to the next regional.

We talk about the world finals today. Heroes and villains. Trash and slow play. Noah eats way too slow. What does the BT15 landscape look like after worlds? And which sovereign has the best option? Let us know what you think in the comments.

We’re busy bees lately. This week we get together on a Wednesday to record for you. We talk about purple dominance and the power of trash. We complain about red hybrid some more. Also the complicated geopolitics of the GTA region. Thanks for bearing with us, we’ll be back soon with quality digimon content!

Julian's back to provide Ian therapy for his 2-2 performance at his first local in a new city. We discuss the life and times of Jimmy Buffet, the pressures of competition and the decreasing relevance of Minervamon in a post BT-11 world. Noah is definitely the responsible one who enables learning on this podcast and is quickly learning how fighting game focused Ian episodes are.

We’re down a soldier today. Ian and Noah participate in the mono green Double Typhoon event. We take a look at the new starter deck cards, talk about what we saw and what you should expect to see at your mono green tournaments, and our experience with green over the years. As the self proclaimed green lover Jeremiah is kicking himself for missing out but he’ll be back soon after he completes his solo mission.

Today we have a special guest. Ben, a local competitor is entering his very first online competition. We discuss what’s lead to this moment, fears of online play, prep and strategies, and setting goals. **Ben finished top 128, a very commendable first tournament outing**

Time to discuss staples! Are they good? Are they bad? What is a staple? Come listen to us try and answer these questions and discuss some common digimon staples.

Jeremiah has his first bad take. Titanium confirmed by David Guetta. We talk a little about the new player experience and delve into community action.

It’s been a while but we’re all back together on the podcast. We do a recap of Noah’s time in LA.

Recorded straight from LA, Noah joins us with two guest hosts. JB and Nolan host the often mentioned Security Checkpoint. We discuss nationals, our experiences, and the grand finals. Join us for a great episode, make sure to follow Security Checkpoint and check out episode 35!

*Disclaimer* This episode was originally intended to be published before Nationals. While Noah is competing at the National Digimon Championship, the rest of the hosts Ian, Jeremiah and guest host Julian discuss what it means to be a competitive player. Open deck lists, playing with a timer, bluffing and providing Noah with the rules to be successful in competition. (Interesting that the hosts NOT at nationals have all the advice)

Noah leaves to get some milk and his broken family is left to pick up the pieces. Join Ian, Jeremiah and guest Julian as they struggle to stay on topic for even 2 minutes while Noah completes his pre-nationals solo training arc. We get into the price of Totally Spies merchandise, the power of speculative markets and how market manipulation can be a viable career path.

Agency. What it means to each of us and why it’s important in games. It’s debate night so come listen in on us convince each other of our own viewpoints on the subject. We touch on the decisions you’re presented with in games and micro decisions affecting the macro of the game. We add some “noise” to our ending let us know what you think.

We talk about loops then we talk about loops then we talk about loops then we talk about loops.

Ian and his special friend Julian come on the podcast and talk about mtg. Happy Holidays!

*Disclaimer this episode was recorded before the most recent Digimon limited list* We talk about the new additions to the banlist and mourn for poor purple Gabumon. We discuss how much we draw in the digimon card game and what that means for card advantage. And then we get weird..

We talk about the best ways to acquire cards, the difficulties we face acquiring them, and find out how bad Jeremiah is at math. Also trainings are huge.

We talk about how badly we want side decks, the importance of order of operations, and beg you to call a judge. Noah falls asleep while Jeremiah talks.

Ian confesses to scamming children. We talk about what we want out of decks, and what we want out of Digimon. We realize that if you listened to the craziness that we call episode 0 you need to get to know us a little better. So 2 episodes of context it is!

We get together and provide some context about who we are, what we like, and why we’re here.

Episode ZERO. The real intro to the podcast. We play it fast and we play it loose. Jeremiah describes us as “unhinged”. We talk about a special ultimate cup format in digimon.
