We have lots of stuff going on this week.  The World Magic Cup happened, for one.  That's about all the discussion we're gonna have about that.  WotC has revealed some information about some products (again) that we feel the urge to talk about.  There's the 2012 Holiday Gift Box, which you can find here: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1039 There's the complete listing for From the Vault: Realms, which is right here: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1040 They also revealed a Return to Ravnica card that will apparently be the Launch promo, which we're gonna talk about.  Yes I know it hasn't shown up on the Magic site anywhere just yet (for some reason) but it's official.  Trust us on this. The main topic of discussion is all about Blue and how it fits into casual, multiplayer, and Magic in general. There's a lot of meat here that I'm just not gonna bother trying to write down, just listen. Also, a couple quick hits: FNM: Friendly Neighborhood Monkey "I don't know what number one is, but second place is a five-way tie." - Dirk  Intro & Outro Music – Diamond by Swift – http://www.swift-band.com Intro by Tosus - http://mathofmagic.wordpress.com/ Break Music – Cat Blues by Yoko Kanno This episode’s post: http://themanapool.com/podcast/episode-244 Forum thread for this episode: http://cardshark.freeforums.org/episode-244-foolaroundishness-t839.html Check out our archive at http://themanapool.com/category/podcast Our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/TheManaPool Our Google+ page: http://gplus.to/themanapool Email us at dorks@themanapool.com Follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/themanapool Cardshark Member Promotions: http://www.cardshark.com/Promotions/Member-Promotions.aspx Subscribe to our RSS feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/themanapool

Hey look, we're doing another Commander episode!  Told you we weren't done with these, what now haters?  Or whatever.  Gimme a break, I never know how to start off these episode write-ups.  But we are focusing on Commander again this week, and of course we've got a guest host.  We managed to snag none other than Tom of the now-defunct MTG Radio podcast.   That show is the main reason Chewie decided to give EDH a try back in the day! We begin with a discussion of competitive EDH that came from a listener email, then move over to the Commander's Arse(nal).  Everyone has their opinion on the product thus far.  Except for Mike, since we were apparently not listening to what he said.  He said stuff though, he assures us! Commander's Arsenal: http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1035 Then we decided to bring back the old Story Circle.  Aw yeah, you know you love it!  Our random general this time around was...Cromat.  Yeah, but we made the best out of it.  If you want to follow along or at least see what these cards are as we rattle them off, you can check out the post here: http://themanapool.com/the-deck-box/storycircle243edh Tom is @MTGRadio on Twitter by the way - you know what to do. Intro & Outro Music – Diamond by Swift – http://www.swift-band.com Break Music – Big Pimpin'/Papercut by Jay-Z/Linkin Park This episode’s post: http://themanapool.com/podcast/episode-243 Forum thread for this episode: http://cardshark.freeforums.org/episode-243-up-your-arsenal-w-story-circle-t838.html Check out our archive at http://themanapool.com/category/podcast Our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/TheManaPool Our Google+ page: http://gplus.to/themanapool Email us at dorks@themanapool.com Follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/themanapool Cardshark Member Promotions: http://www.cardshark.com/Promotions/Member-Promotions.aspx Subscribe to our RSS feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/themanapool
