2 Trolls & a Brew – ep 29 “Long A$$ Weekend”

It’s time again for another exciting episode of 2 Trolls & a Brew,  “Long A$$ Weekend” sub title “Silent Observer……” 

Oh this episode of 2 Trolls, Samius lays out the law or the outline as it were. How well did we do? I feel like we nailed it. Let us know.  We talk about how Travis did at States over the weekend as well as how much of the PT we watched as well as the fall out from the pay changes on appearance fees. I know WotC has rolled those changed back for now but it was a big part of the show.

We look at a couple of Brain in the Jar lists
mono-blue-brains – thanks for selling out of Brains in a Jar
Dan’s List

All this and we cover “Enter the Battlefield” (spoiler alert – it was great watch it), finding alternate win cons and another email from Mathias.

Oh and it is Travis’ turn to stump Samius at the flavor text game. Do I fall or rise in glory?

Troll On!

2 Trolls & a Brew – ep 28 “Preparing for States”

It’s time again for another exciting episode of 2 Trolls & a Brew,  “Preparing for States” sub title “Confront the Unknown; the new Aspect of Hydra?” Really Travis? Who cares? Oh there are green magic players…. 

Oh this episode of 2 Trolls our majestic hosts carry on and on and on about new standard, the upcoming meta game, drama, more drama, money in Magic and even more drama.

Is there a reason to hate on the risk takers playing The Capitalist – MtG edition? Or can we all agree to get along, play and grow as a community?

Hey we have a decklist for you:

esperbrain

I don’t know what the best colors for a deck built around the card, Brain in the Jar, but this is where i have started and so far so good.

States vs PPTQ?
Gamer Guild in Hays KS, PPTQ

Why can’t we all just find a middle ground as well as we can? 

 

 

All this, and we use magiccards.info/random for the flavor text game.

When Trolls agree that everyone needs to calm down there is a problem.

2 Trolls & a Brew – ep – 27 “Baker’s Podcast”

It’s time again for another exciting episode of 2 Trolls & a Brew,  “Baker’s Podcast” … for real tho, let’s talk about it. Subtitle this week “Are Werewolves Beatable?

Oh this episode of 2 Trolls our brave trolls record over and over until we get a show that sounds like we have a clue what we are doing. Hint, i sacked that clue to draw a card so we don’t have it any longer…

Decks you can just give away challenge! You are here by challenged to make a deck that is at least playable with a cost so low you can just give it to new players. Use draft chaff, commons you have 30 of, or whatever. Just be the person that can give a new player a deck at a moments notice. Keep new player retention high and be a good ambassador for the game.

I couple of decks from Travis and I as a possible starting place:
redpauper

blackpauper

I am not saying you have to make PT winning decks here, just something that gives a new player the core ideas of playing and a little nugget of a start in our game.

What Jedi Tricks are up your sleeve? Tell us. This is one i have been working on my whole life.

Starcraft Dual Decks looks super fun.

All this, and Travis tricks me into reveling my inner monster in this weeks would you rather… What A jerk.

2 Trolls & a Brew – ep – 26 “All the Tech Issues”

It’s time again for another exciting episode of 2 Trolls & a Brew,  “All the Tech Issues” subtitle “No really it is Bad, Sorry”

Oh this episode of 2 Trolls; the trolls battle through the tech issues as best we can. But between Travis’s mic just stopping at times and the internet dropping we are lucky to have a show at all even if it sounds like there is a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. Flop, Flop, Flop forEVER! Sorry again, Travis is getting a new headset today and we hope that fixes most of the issues.

This week’s show is mostly focused on the lessons learned at the Pre-release.  What cards where good for us? What were not? What commons and Uncommons pulled more then their weight? And what errors would we fix if we could do it all over again?

Hint:

Travis thinks there is a colorless burn list in the new standard:

  • 4 herald of kozilek
  • 2 endbringer
  • 4 touch of the void
  • 4 reality hemorrhage
  • 4 consuming sinkhole
  • 4 molten nursery
  • 4 void snare
  • 4 spell shrivel
  • 3 horribly awry
  • 4 anticipate
  • 4 sea gate wreckage
  • 4 island
  • 4 shivan reed
  • 4 corrupted crossroads
  • 3 wandering fumaroil
  • 4 shrine of the…..ummmm make 2 colorless mana

It is not perfect by any means but it is a start for any FNM.
All this and more as we get into the changes hitting modern with the ban and more importantly the unban announcement, some talk about recovering from tilting out and we play a US history game of which you can take along with Travis and maybe you are more knowledgeable then the trolls.

I didn’t talk them up this week but i want to link Dan’s Go Fund Me page and the Jack Vasel Memorial Fund again this week as they are in need of your help and i know if it is right for you to give you will. Thanks for joining us and…

Troll On!
