DC 77 – Metagaming, The Competitive Rogue, Early Scars




DeckConstruct - Magic the Gathering podcast show

Summary: Show 77 is ready to roll, and it’s the last show of series 6. To kick off, I look at the art of metagaming. I explain what a metagame is, and provide some tips on how to metagame successfully. After that is a look at playing a rogue deck competitively. It takes more than just having a good idea or relying on the surprise factor! Finally, I take a look at some Scars of Mirrodin information that has been leaking out of the San Diego Comic Con taking place this weekend. As always your feedback is muchly appreciated at show@deckconstruct.com, and don’t forget to check out the DC forums, too! You’ll also find DC on the social side of the internet as always at Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Flickr. Thanks for listening, thanks for subscribing if you do so, and thanks for just generally interacting with DeckConstruct! The podcast will return on Friday, September 3rd 2010 with series 7 and, I guess, a lot of artifacts to look forward to in the new set! - DC Couch Squad Music Credits Intro: The Go!
