Season 26, Episode 07: Modern State of the Format   The CEO of Faithless Brewing Sur and prodigal co-host, Emi Sagasti, returns to break down the new-look Modern format after the surprise banning of Phlage and unban of Violent Outburst.

Zach and Morde break it all down, with a bonus look at David's latest Pioneer & Standard concoctions featuring Micromancer, Emeritus of Ideation, and Bender's Waterskin.    Like our content?

He then immediately jumped back in the MTGO queues to keep cracking the standard format wide open ... by tapping Gran-Gran with Springleaf Drum. Five trophies later, the ideas are still flowing. David, meanwhile, has been putting the new TMNT and Lorwyn Eclipsed cards through their paces in Pioneer, with some innovative ideas for Leonardo, the Cutting Edge and Meek Attack.   Like our content?

Season 26, Episode 08: The Complete Guide to Selensya Landfall & How to Beat It It only took four months of proselytizing, but Icetill Explorer is finally the top deck in Standard. What happens when a Faithless Brew breaks containment and goes mainstream? It crushes Magic Online for two weeks straight until the meta warps around it. Cavedan has been hard at work on Icetill explorer, documenting his efforts on r/spikes both with and against the Mightform Harmonizer landfall decks. We built this Icetill meta, and now we must destroy it. We also take a look at some off the wall concepts in Pioneer and Standard (Station Stompy, anyone?) and get an early look at Marvel Superheroes.   Read cavedan's guide to Selesnya Landfall here.    ****   Like our content?

Season 25, Episode 4: Brewer's Guide to Spider-Man + Spotlight Series: Planetary Rotation Recap   It's Vivi's world, we just brew in it. As the podcast wakens from its summer slumber, Dan took the plunge into Standard and went hard on Icetill Explorer for Grand Prix Orlando, with the help of the Faithless Brewing Discord. What did their collective brains come up with? A sturdy BG Rock list, featuring Season of Loss, that easily crushed an Oversized Standard event, and a truly insane Abhorrent Oculus brew that carried Dan to a 6-2-1 record on Day 1 before the Vivi meta put a stop to all the fun on Day 2. Meanwhile, David spins his webs in Pioneer, picking through the most promising new options from Spider-Man for Pioneer, Modern, and yes, Standard. Is web-slinging the new broken mechanic? Which Spider-dude or Spider-gal is the most superior, amazing, sensational Spider-person, and why is it Fleem? Don't fret the confusion; we'll get you sorted out.   Dan's Golgari Season of Loss (5-0, Oversized Standard event) https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/7317490#paper   Dan's Sultai Oculus (7-7-1, Spotlight Series Orlando main event): https://scryfall.com/@FaithlessMTG/decks/c0001199-f006-4f87-b2ee-cbd0ffc39a0b   Like our content?

Season 23, Episode 10: The NV Invitational "Some delicacies are not to be savored, save by the callous" —Baron Sengir Just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday, we invite you to a sumptuous feast of MTG nostalgia. If you possessed an Alpha starter deck, what would you do with it? Would you keep it locked safe in a vault, preserving its possibilities for future generations? Would you sell it to the highest bidder, turning old cardboard into $100,000 or more of cold hard cash? Or maybe, just maybe, would you open it?  In this episode of Faithless Brewing, our guest is choosing option D --- not just opening an Alpha starter deck, but organizing a blowout sealed deck event, where pack fresh Alpha cards will go head to head with old packs through Revised in matches played for ante. Cards that have remained sealed for more than 30 years will finally see the light of day and meet one another in glorious battle, in the auspicious glow of a sealed brick of Alpha starters. The NV Invitational is a one-of-a-kind celebration, part tournament, part birthday bash, part Last Supper. In an era when Magic's future looks cloudier than ever, we return to the game's earliest days, when each new booster multiplied possibilities and cards were unequivocally meant to be played.  Oh, and did we mention that every card will be stamped? If you've ever wanted to take possession of a pack fresh, stamped and signed Alpha Black Lotus, wresting it away from your opponent in a hard fought ante match, this is your chance!   Like our content?
