It's a Modern-tastic episode as the gang is joined by Mox Reuby himself—Reuben Bresler (@moxreuby). With bannings and unbannings shaking up the Modern format, there is a lot to discuss. How much of it is finance, and how much of it is general speculation about what the Modern format will look like? You decide! So who plays devil's advocate in what turns into most of the cast wanting to compliment Courser of Kruphix even more than the last guy? How does Reueben feel about Chromanticore? Will you be mailing Chromanticores to Jason like everyone else? What other overlooked banning is going to affect people? Was the early buyout of Bitterblossom due to bad, new speculators; good, old speculators; or dirty, rotten cheaters using insider information? Is Faeries going to be the new king of Modern? Find out the answer to all these ques-tions and more on a fun-filled episode that will have you saying, “That's too many Picks of the Week, even for them.” Join us for—at the very least—the first half of Brainstorm Brewery.
