Crash and Burn the Open Day 2 | Reviewing The Arena Open and Going Deep On DFT
Welcome to Lords of Limited, the podcast dedicated to getting you better at drafting in Magic: the Gathering. It’s Arena Open Weekend but sadly there are no second drafts in our hosts’ future. We take a look at Ethan’s Draft to see if he could have done something different and then check in on a bunch of individual cards and format epiphanies. Plus, a deep dive on one of the sweetest decks in the format: Push the Limit!
🎙️ What You’ll Get in This Episode:
High Stakes Draft Log Review
Individual Card and Aetherdrift Epiphanies
How to Build Around Push the Limit
The meta (that’s right, we’re using the “M” word) is shifting, and while Green is at the center of the format, there’s still a ton of play and opportunities from the other colors. Join us as we change our tune on what White has to offer and a host of other updates to this complex format!
