The Howling Salt Mine

Welcome to Episode 204!

Today, holding back to let a new player have their moment, when your friend unknowingly silver bullets your entire deck, and the pure unfiltered vitriol of a manbaby on MTGO.

Also Sam and Mike discuss their time at PAX East (which happened two months ago... just roll with it), and Tony is away on business.

Stay Salty!

Sam, Mike, & Tony

Today, having perfect answers for an increasingly salty opponent, trapping your beloved brother in Muldrotha loops, farming casuals in ticketed free play, and winning in style with a silly sticker deck.

Stay Salty!

Welcome to Episode 201!

Today, when a speedy little monkey derails your game, the nuances of the combat phase leads to unintentional salt, and why you never let Ovika players have anything.

Also, Tony is under the bus, hot girl walks and moist man crawls, and Assassin's Creed criticism.

WELCOME TO EPISODE 200!!!

And to help us celebrate this huge milestone, we are joined by Josh Lee Kwai from The Command Zone podcast and Game Knights!

On today's episode, voltronning someone in their own home so badly that you don't get invited back, an opponent threatens to scoop to Spell Pierce, and the regret of breaking out your Baral deck to keep another player in check. 

Also, managing salt on set and whining until you win.

Thank you to all the prospectors in the mine for listening along with us for 200 episodes. We would not have made it this far without our incredible community. 

Stay Salty!

Sam, Mike, & Tony
