Final Fantasy Precon Breakdown & Initial Thoughts | PlanesTalkers 7
Episode 7
vendredi 16 mai 2025 • Duration 01:17:48
The brand-new Universes Beyond set is fast approaching, and in anticipation for MTG x Final Fantasy, we sat down to talk about the recently revealed deck lists for each of the pre-cons releasing alongside the set!
Featuring icons from Final Fantasy 6, 7, 10 and 14, these decks pack a major punch right out of the box and are almost guaranteed to spice up your at-home commander nights.
Next week, we'll be talking about May Secret Lair "The Ultimate Pencil" Superdrop and the upcoming Final Fantasy Secret Lair drop that will be hitting the shop just in time for the official set launch on June 13.

samedi 29 mars 2025 • Duration 01:01:07

Changing Perspectives (Omnath, Locus of Creation, Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign) | PlanesTalkers 4
Episode 4
vendredi 21 mars 2025 • Duration 48:39
This week, we finally come back from an extended hiatus to talk about commanders that we love (and maybe love to hate) that helped us rethink how we approach casual tables and putting a deck together.
Nick discusses his first experience playing a commander with green in their color identity with Omnath, Locus of Creation as well as graveyard control with Meren of Clan Nel Toth while Anna dives into her tricky extra turn-chaining schemes with Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign and her enemies-to-lovers perspective on mill decks thanks to the infamous Captain N'ghathrod.

Picking Favorites (Jodah Archmage Eternal, Astarion The Decadent) | PlanesTalkers 3
Episode 3
mardi 25 février 2025 • Duration 01:01:31
We finally talk about our favorite commander decks and break down what we love about them, their mechanics, and the little bits of personal flair we threw into each to make it our own. We also get to give a rundown of our experience attending MagicCon Chicago 2025 and Magic's official return to Tarkir coming in April thanks to Dragonstorm!
This week's featured Commanders are Jodah, Archmage Eternal -- a splashy WUBRG commander that looks to cheat out huge spells to swing out in combat and Astarion, The Decadent -- a unique life gain commander who secretly works as a gnarly Orzhov combo piece.

What Makes a Game Changer? | PlanesTalkers 2
Episode 2
mardi 18 février 2025 • Duration 01:03:51
Instead of talking about our favorite commander decks, we instead decided to sit down and discuss how we feel about the new bracket system and Game Changer list implemented by Wizards of the Coast to help EDH player's define their decks, and stir the pot over some of the card choices on the aforementioned "Game Changer" list.
We also dive into some of the more social implications of the new system, and offer some insight on what players should consider when approaching pregame discussions with the new system being developed.
