The Howling Salt Mine

Tony and Sam kick it off with a chat about Collector Booster boxes and the state of the cost of Magic these days. Then, a prerelease deal to split a box is changed, another prerelease is soured from a niche rules interaction, and a Blue Farm player backseat drives their RogSi friend in a cEDH tournament.

Also Tony is clearly not 1337, and HSM has too many calendars.

Stay Salty!

Sam & Tony (Mike is out of town)

Have you ever been salty while playing Magic the Gathering? This is the show for you.

The Howling Salt Mine is a Magic the Gathering comedy/advice podcast where we read salty stories from the community about games gone wrong, frustrating interactions, and challenging playgroup dynamics. Stories range from frustrating FNMs, getting pubstomped by that jerk at your LGS, and lots of commander stories where the salt is plentiful. We offer advice on how to deal with the frustrations of losing, how to avoid (or use) the saltiest cards in EDH, and how to navigate social situations.

Join Sam, Mike, and Tony each week as we delve into the salty, salty mines of the community, put some salt in our mine cart, and bring it right back up to our dear prospectors listening at home.

Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Today, Uncle Iroh has a big turn and ruins the game night vibe, a salty friend leaves his commander in exile and leaves the commander playgroup, and an opponent casts a Worldpurge in a 12 person game to create a true nightmare of a game.

Also the boys chat about the Ocarina of Time remake, and Sam is confidently wrong about Super Smash Brothers.

Stay Salty!

Sam, Mike, & Tony

Today, a "judge" at the LGS makes you skip your untap step, a braids player is that braids player, and a player fudges some rules at an edge of eternities prerelease event.

Also, Sam and Mike give Selvala the ideal send off she deserves (without Tony).

Stay Salty!

Today a foolish opponent board wipes into an Atla Palani deck, learning magic from a sweaty vintage player, and an LGS full of disrespectful players leads to a salty day.

Also, Sam pubstomps in Bracket 3 and takes 20 minute turns.

Stay Salty!
