The Goblin Trashmasters – Détails, épisodes et analyse

The one where the Trashmasters delve into cube drafting with guest cohost Tye, discussing the intricacies of designing a cube, optimal strategies, and sleeve recommendations. They also cover the differences between static and triggered abilities and how to make cards feel essential within a cube's unique format.

The one where the Trashmasters discuss what happened at RC Charlotte, why Sophie missed it, and delve into various tangents including the kidnapping of Roger Rabbit, neurotypical vs autistic interactions, and Linux setups. They also analyze how certain decks performed, the emotional aftermath of RC failures, and provide humorous anecdotes from their trip. Diana Taurasi's retirement and LeBron James' dedication to basketball make a notable appearance, alongside the importance of avoiding hasty decisions post-tournament disappointment.

The one where the Trashmasters discuss the importance of fostering community growth through playtesting, contrasting attitudes in learning, and how to manage negative player environments. Andy shares his frustrations with local attitudes while reflecting on positive and negative experiences at weeklies — punctuated with a little therapy session and some humor about Sophie’s absence and near universal human disdain for BD's Mongolian Grill.

In the Magic Podcast ecosystem, the competitive podcast topics are especially heinous. In Lexington, the mildly interested idiots that talk about this shit are part of an elite unit known as the Goblin Trashmasters. This is them talking about what type of magic player you want to be and how to do an autopsy on a game of magic. Bum bum.

The one where the Trashmasters talk about format whiteboarding, express a distaste for the concept of "Natural Talent" and cover some tough questions about Butt-Rock while discussing the worst music fandoms out there.

The one where one of the Trashmasters is missing, so special guest Ashley fills in and we talk tournament structure, and how to help someone break into competitive magic. There's a reasonably long aside about the existence of the Shoah in the Disney's Pixar's Cars universe. CW: Questionable casting choices are made.

The one where the Trashmasters talk about the origins of the Pioneer format, Lord of the Rings leaks, and the unfathomable power of the Onceler's sex appeal.

The one where the Trashmasters talk Legacy bannings (because Anthony has trouble letting go) and the difference between luck and variance and how you may be impeding your own growth.  There's also a pretty foul bit about ugly babies in the middle, there.  You should probably skip it.  You won't, though.

The one where the Trashmasters talk about the decks of PT Phyrexia and the Pioneer format as a whole.  They also talk about some preview cards for March of the Machine and the Snapewives.  Those topics are not related.  Actually, the Snapewives aren't related to anything, except maybe NCIS?

The one where the Trashmasters have opinions about assholes, like everyone...  or however that saying goes.  They also tee up for the upcoming Pioneer RC season.
