• 0:50
  Speaker 3: very late.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Run faster Forrest.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I I don't know why. Maybe maybe he's getting some
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: of those storms that we got. I was watching the
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: weather today and they are kind of going towards the
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: East coast. It looked like it was going more towards Michigan.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: How did you well fare the storms?
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: They were fair.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Sweet.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: They hit a little bit closer to home than I
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: would have liked.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had a tornado like three point seven miles
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: away from a house.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: It was closer than that for me.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: So yeah, oh yeah, you're even closer to Sussex than they,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: aren't you.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: That was my next road over man.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh was it really that? It was that close? Holy? Yeah,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: that's bananas up in Wisconsin. Obviously we had a little
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: torrential downpour. Sheep gave me crap because I did not
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: come out to our Alliance Store championship, which I was
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: really excited for. But unfortunately, you know, the mother nature
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: said otherwise, and Sheep said, be a man, and I
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: said no.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: So the rest of us showed up.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: I think the rest of you got there well before
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: that sky turned pitch black. Nah, what's a little rain?
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Little rain? What's a little rain and a few tornadoes?
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Nah, it was not a huge tornado. It was an
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: e F two, So.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Well, okay, isn't it just F two? What's e F?
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: What does the stand up? E F two? My wife's
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: so too. Yeah, the extra fishy, Oh my goodness.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: It's a Fuji to scale but basically winds on hundred
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: twenty miles an hour. There's a whole bunch of trees
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: ripped out everywhere, but luckily, just some minor damage to
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a couple of buildings. Nobody was actually hurt.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: So this is a real thing.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what happened?
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: Just the F scale? When did we When do we
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: lose that it was replaced by e F or is
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: this just new.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: The E standing for enhanced?
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, so was it just the Fujita scale
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: before that and now it's the enhanced Fujita Scale.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Sure, I don't know enough about that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I've never heard them called EF I've always just like,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: oh is an F three year at F four? Say
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: let's go yep? I mean yeah, just level two by
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: our house, just level two, not all the way to five. Yeah.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Probably one of my favorite things that I ran my
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: kids through. We had severe weather unit in fourth grade
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: a number of years ago, probably about fifteen years ago,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: and there was a sweet website that I found that
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: you could have this mock tornado go through and you
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: could change the Fujita scale to see its impact on
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: making things fly or go away and get destroyed. All
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: the kids loved it. It was It was absolutely amazing.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: But sadly that it has not been updated lately, so
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: we lost another one. Good to the internet. Interwebs, Yeah,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: I got home and like sirens were a blaring, so
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: we all went to the basement and hung out there
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: for like an hour or so until the sirens went
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: off and then they went back on, so it was
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: back down to the basement. It was a crazy night.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: But how was sealed Alliance. Give us some preface to
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: how we did Sealed Alliance in a very non traditional fashion.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry it wasn't Sealed Alliance. This was just our
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: regular Alliance, but it ended up being Sealed Alliance.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we played it it was Alliance, so we played
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: it as Sealed Alliance because that's the best way to
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: play Alliance.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: It's true.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: We went ahead and said, you know what a deck
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: right now is roughly about fifteen, or you could get
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: a whole box of AOA for twenty. Yeah, I think
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: it was technically eighteen, and so that's what we did.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: We cracked each cracked a box of AOA and you
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: got to Alliance three pods from it. Amazing. It was,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: actually it was. It was a lot of fun. It
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: was super fun. Uh the old cardboard boxes to be
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: able to open up and uh to see everyone having fun.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: We had six because you didn't show up.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: See why are y'all complaining? Because you weren't there and
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I would love to be there. We had another friend
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: who also miss because of travel and work and you know,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: life gets in the way and weather gets in the way.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: But it was it was a lot of fun.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: We were cracking decks and looking at pods and you
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: have you know, most normal people who would look at
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the AOA deck and go nope, nope, and you just
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: put a pile of nopes and maybe and uh does
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: it have have this meme? Do we have Jenka? Do
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: we have gang or not? Yeah, do we have brig.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: So it was pretty funny to be able to see
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: and then our good friends, just one friend in our
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: group literally unsleeves all the pods, all the decks that
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: needs to lay out all the cards. It was amazing.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: He's also the guy who shows up the latest mister perfect. No,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: now we don't name names here.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Oh we can't name. We can't name, we can't name.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: We can't name names. But I will say there were
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: some cards that might have been shifted from one pod
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: to another.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Oh god, so sloopy.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: No, it was. It was great to see like the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: different strategies of the well this is not playable, but
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: it was fun and honestly everyone was able to get
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: We usually meet up at six thirty and we had
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: everyone paired off ready to go playing by six forty five.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: So it was a great time.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: And if you guys would have waited for me, I
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have gotten there until at least six thirty maybe
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: six forty five, depending.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: And you still would have You still would have been
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: able to crack your decks and be able to say,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: here's my alliance in that.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: I can't I can't imagine looking at ALA decks and
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: being like, oh, these are phenomenal. I will definitely play these.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: So she you want some highlights from yours? What did
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: you end up cracking? Open?
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: One? Shadows pod worth talking about and a bunch of away.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, so no get for you.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: No Jenka, no drummer gangers, no brigs, no Mars first, Shenanigans, nothing,
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: a double Ronnie Miasma, nerve blast, TEMTP pod Okay, the
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: best I had solid?
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was fine. So what would you have recursion?
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Because there was some good recursion in AOA.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm at some mediocre logos didn't do much.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Okay, sounds fair.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: So what would you have.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Been was some totally trash brob nar just because I
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: had no creature control?
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Otherwise, what did you consider your Mars first that you'd
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: be looking for? Like? What shenanigans? Can you pull off
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: with Mars first?
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: That's in sealed Mars First with with worms is good enough. Yeah,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: like you just got to control. If you could control,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: that's good enough. It's not that Mars First Shenanigans isn't.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: That's more of a B tire. But yes, I get
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: what you.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Wow, you're playing sealed, I mean could be.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Good enough and it's a sealed so be tire is
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: probably definitely.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: We didn't all open a Jenka deck, a drummer not deck,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and a non tamed amber bursting key cheating deck. Yeah,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: like we didn't all have those choices, so songs had
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: to just play with them.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah aaa, My my twelve pods were really interesting. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: only had two shadows pods, so my amber control was
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: out of a hole didn't exist.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: So you only got two shadows pods. Yeah wow.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: And I had miasma and what was that? It was
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Actually it was comical because I'm like, oh my goodness,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: what is technically so my amber control. I had one
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: deck that had Lash of Broken Dreams, uh Mysic's the
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Resonator and then PROC but the rest of those houses,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: like you can't play the pods based on a card. Yeah,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: so I had one.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: I think in AOA you can, but yeah.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, those were not.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: Not even ai I had.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so one of the Shadows pod was double Miasma,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: nerve blasts and swindle.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Eh.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: It's okay, but it was not enough. And the other
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: one was Ronnie swindle, umbra and a gamgee. So yeah,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: I went with I don't have Amber control, so don't
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: roll with Amber control. Well, and you're also opening twelve
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: instead of even one or like three and then trying
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: to mix them, so you're you're picturing that your opponents
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: are gonna have apps, you know, some thing that's a
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: little bit better. So if you take a pod that
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: you're bringing in just for creature control as Sheep said,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: or just as Amber control for one card, eh, I
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: think that you have to have a couple of cards, but.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: You didn't even like a decent I'm trying to think
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: like a Sanctum pod where you can get some Umber control.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: No nope, no, no capture. So I ended up with
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: two Brabnar pods that I had double ganger and drummer,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: and the other had double drummer and a ganger and
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: so those were like hmm, that pops out. I ended
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: up playing my my pod, which was never knife of
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: the Walker's growth. I had triple punch, Drummer, not double
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: first Blood, double Ganger, Groggins, Trummer Sun the horns. Oh sorry,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: and here's my amber control for the deck. Take that,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: smarty pants.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: That's when I was playing logos. So if you did it,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: if you if you went into AOA sealed with the
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: whole box and then.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: Did not play.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Logos, yeah, he did not play logos. Well yeah, but
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I actually liked the pod for a couple different reasons.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: It it did have quite a bit of amber pips
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: and the punches can stun to kind of slow up.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: But if you actually look at the sound of the horns,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: there's only three creatures, well four technically, the Drummer, Double Ganger,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: and then the Grogins. True story, two of my three games,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: I just need to get a creature. I have two
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: of those four that are already out, so I have
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: a fifty to fifty shot of which one I'm going
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: to get. Is it gonna be my gang or not
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Combo or is it gonna be Grogins. It was Rogos,
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: so it made me laugh. One was the next card
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: for Grogens and the other one was we dug a
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: little bit. But yeah, it was fun outside of that.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Let's see here my other one. I had a very
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I had a nice logos. It was Archimedes, triple Helper, Bot, Lyria,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Babel Pit, Pip Suddterkin Uh Titan Librarian, double Brocket boots,
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: and then we had crazy killing Machine and strange GisMo,
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: but H went for some efficiency. So and then I
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: finished it off with my untamed and.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Sound like you're just shuffling sealed that, like did you
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: not open any of these? Like why are they all
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: sealed behind you?
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: The three?
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: Fine?
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Uh but no, but I went with.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: You unsealed right, oh yeah, because I was like, it
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: sounds like you're just going through sealed decks behind of you,
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Like what are you looking for?
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: I just pulled out the cards, but I had I
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: was hoping for a little bit more on this pod.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: But the untamed pod was key Charge regrowth, tintandle and
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: showed up. So you got the double double key cheat
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: mimicry and then double Nature's Call. So I really was
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: looking at double key cheat with mimicry and Nature's Call.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I was hoping the mimicry could actually let me choose
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: some sea, which I didn't really have or some amber control,
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: which I didn't have. And then you got silly people
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: like shape here who just refused to play his cards
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: and he's gonna like flip his deck and then play him.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Geez, yeah, sucket.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: But this this is a deck that eBay lovers are
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: gonna love. Why all of these rares? And we know
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: keyboards decks with rares are amazing. So curiosity, what does
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: curiosity do there, mister mister wookie?
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Uh curious?
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: Ill say? I think that's something with scientists, isn't it.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: They have like scientists you steal that was the other one. No,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: it's just destroy him.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, but killed, that's right.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: So like with logos, looked like yeah, it looked like
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: something fun to be able to do. And then Kindred
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: long shot Karana Monkeys, which was again some sea roxidor
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: nobody cares about, and the Common Cold, which ironically did
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: some work.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Clear creatures Uh no, uh, our good.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Friend danger Boat had tripled dust switch and uh.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: It deals one damage to everything and then destroys creatures,
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: doesn't it?
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Correct? But I didn't see Mars at all. Nobody I
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: played head Mars, but it was able to do a
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: damage and I was able to get rid of the
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: dust switch when I needed it, so.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: I didn't fight Pete up. Pete was in the chat,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: uh Pete to tell us about his uh I guess
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: absolute banger.
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, happily. So it all began with the preparation
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: process about a week leading up to the event.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: God, no, just tell us about.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Did you did you go ahead and greet use resealing glue?
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: Nope?
• 16:34
  Speaker 6: This was a god's honest display Amazon.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Can you weigh Martian generosities?
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's up.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: You'd brought the heaviest box.
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe that would work, but no in this case, No,
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: just dumb luck and a lot of looking at the okay, researching,
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: you know, what's out there, and then on the drive
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: up because it's a bit of drive for my local
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: listen to some AOA Impressions podcasts from way back in
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: twenty nineteen, and that was kind of neat. Didn't really
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: tell me anything I didn't already know, but it was
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: it was fun to get primed for the event in
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: that way.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: And I mean, you have been rocking the SaaS Champs,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: so playing all those little anyway has really prepared you.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: I feel like it did, so Yeah, I went into
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: it looking for the big ticket items, your your drummernauts,
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: your Genka, your brig. I knew logos and shadows are essential.
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: I kind of figured i'd jump on brig if I
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: saw it, and then for shadows just something like too
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: much to protect, maybe a brand and a life for
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: a life, so that kind of stuff Ronnie's of course.
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: But as I opened my packs, I saw a Genka
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: dak and I was like, well, I'm keeping that over
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: this other Martian pod that had generosity and two shatterstorms.
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: Shatterstorms have been doing a lot of work in SaaS Champs,
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: so I've grown to really respect that card. But No
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: went with a Ganka and then saw the drummer Not
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: didn't really care what else was in it, took that
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: and what was the third discussing one oh on tamed
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: pod with two flaxias, a full moon and a key charge,
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: and I left like two brig decks on the table,
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: like it's just a crazy display. And as far as
• 18:33
  Speaker 6: who I played, let's see I played. I played a
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: danger boat first and the drummer not went off twice
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: he did gosh, I always forget the name of the
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: card the logos one where if they have eight, you
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: steal to cut throat cut throat restart. Yeah, he fired
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: that off on me twice.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Which which is a fun story. Cutthroat research in AOA
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: was such a dead card, like it was so like.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was still a bad card.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Well, I think it fires more now.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: With the.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: With the you know, the the Martian tricks in GR
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: and GR and whatnot. So I I've definitely got hit
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: by one hundred percent more cutthroat researches in GR than
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: I ever did in AOA, because you printed a card
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: that says if they have eight or more steel too,
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: but AOA could never produce eight.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Well you're talking about that, but AOWAY also like you
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: had shadows there and so going to six or seven,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: like going to seven or eight above you're worried about
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: tm TV, you're worried about Ronnie and so things like
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: that kept you more in check and you're just like,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: I don't need to do this. I'll inch by at six.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I saw it as a very different setup,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: whereas later on you don't have Okay, if I go
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: burst big, I'm not going to get hit. Oh you
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: took two from week.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Definitely in era do not have the biggest scaling ember controls.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: I mean we have red Line, which is a monster
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: closed door yep, closed door, but I'm still closed door
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: and then uh shrinks. Right, that's kind of it. Not
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: much else kind of going out there with really heavy
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: scaling umber control. What's the Brobner one, the fallen something
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: the fallen you lose an ember. Everybody loses an umber
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: for each creature in their discard pile.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody blasphemy with the stupid fire one where they
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: destroy creature and you lose all the amber equal to
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the creatures power half the creature's power.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I would I would agree with Eric Waters in our
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: chat Hoodwinked also is something now that you know?
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah hoodwinked and hoodwinked in cover Fire.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Shadows coming back with a vengeance.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: But before that, I mean, g r ao A, I
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: guess AOI had one. There's definitely more reasons to stay like, Okay,
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna sit like I need to stay below seven
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: so that these cards can't fire. And yeah, I don't
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: feel like that's as big of a thing anymore.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: So, Pete, having played would you in cheap too, would
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: you would you play sealed box.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Again every chance I get.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Honestly, like, I looked at the AA the French A
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: box that I have, I'm like, I would do this
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: so that I feel like I can open it and
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: play it. I have a reason to do to use
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: it versus it just sitting there. So now I had
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: a blast doing it, and it was nice to go
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: back with some nostalgia of AOA.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to do what we did with a
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: full cost modern box.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: No, No, it's with Dwight.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: L Er AOA boxes. This is now the only way
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: to play AOA.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: I second. So everybody had fun.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Everyone did, and it also spurred us to talk about
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: potentially running more of a box event even as Straconium
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Measures is coming out for our own locals. So we
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: put together some initial ideas on how to be able
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: to do that instead of just cracking. Basically, if you
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: have a box there that you would open it and
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: you know, here's your deck for the week, and you
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: do that a couple of weeks, and then you'd potentially
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: be able to use those decks from the first couple
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: of weeks in order to be able to create an alliance,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: so instead of just randomly cracking decks with the new
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: set coming to us, hopefully sooner rather than later. I
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: don't know. I think it's something fun that we could
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: be able to bring into our own locals.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: M more to come, I suppose on that as uh.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Yep, flashing that ideas.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: Pete's already hammers out the key the key rarium. It's
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: the picture here. I actually take this picture. Oh, I
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: worked on it real hard. Yeah, how did what did you?
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: What did you tell chatchipt to put in?
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: I did a lot of prompts and then it got
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: to the point where the image was degraded completely. And
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: then I collected up all the prompts and moved over
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: to a different generator and started over again.
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: So it took a little bit of doing. It turned
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: out good. Yeah, it does look good. Well, we'll give
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: you more updates from them from that as as time
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: goes on. But boys, I think it's time to move
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: into the new tournament structure. Starting with Portland, we have
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: a brand new tournament structure headed in as a Jurazz Courts.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Wild Drazz Corps has appeared.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: A brand old tournament.
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, brand new before by the way airports suck
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: case you're.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if any of us were wondering,
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: but we.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: All know we appreciate you being here. Man.
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: Man, you know what, you know what a great thing
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: to hear is when when you're like you've been delayed
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: multiple times, I'm like, I don't have so much time
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: to get on the podcast. You've plaid multiple times. Like
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: finally you get on the plane and then like they
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: pull away and they're like, yeah.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: So there's like a lot of traffic into Philadelphia. So
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: it actually tells us me to.
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: Sit here for an hour.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: So he sat on the tarback Charlotte for an hour.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: So like finally we take off, like why and like
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: we get there, we're just like circling Philly. They're like,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: finally the guy comes out.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: He's like yeah, so like we're running out of fuel,
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: so we might have to go to like Baltimore.
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: It's like, what to Baltimore? Wow? I guess they let
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: us land though, so we didn't have to divert to
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: Baltimore to get fuel forever. Could you imagine getting to
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: your destination being like we need fuel, so we have
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: to go up. Yeah, just fuel up and then Baltimore, Philly.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: What's worse. Is it worse to sit in the airport
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: on a on a delay, or is it worse to
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: sit on the airplane. It sucks.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: You can't go anywhere, you can't do anything. It's usually
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: hot flying first class. Yeah, so you know I'm in steerage,
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: you know, So now.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: You are the hamster wheel, move faster?
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Well exactly.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: You know what will make you feel better A twenty
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: dollars box of a away that you play with your locals.

• 26:08

• 26:10
  Speaker 2: time with it. And while I did not win, our
• 26:13

• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Alliance or.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: So it was?
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: It was ar Con and then Alliance. So for ar Con,
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: I was like, I'm not going to use Aria, I'm
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: gonna do something else. So I decided to go Professor
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: Deuce and Professor and one I know what too and
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: one with Professor Douce.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Job.

  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there you go, funn amber Sky's deck.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: And then for Alliance, I played Aria so and I
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: went to and one with ari An Alliance.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: So you know, it was a good time. It was
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: a good time.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: Noise it was two and one able to take take
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: your tournament?
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: No, no, no, no there yeah yeah.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Six players two and one can do it.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Two and one can do it.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, have three rounds of Swiss and no top cut.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah. But speaking of Swiss, guys, brand new tournament format
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: coming to Baltimore, brand new. Nobody's ever heard It's called Swiss.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: Have you guys heard of that? Did you guys read
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: this article?
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Tell me what is Swiss? Is this a cheese?
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Uh? No, well, it's it turns out we're gonna have
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: a number of rounds dependent on the players. Right, They've
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: got a sweet little table over there, and then it
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: tells you what the top cut. After those rounds are done,
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: it's going to tell you what a top cuts to
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: and then the Top Cup players will move on to
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: uh to play. Yeah, yeah, this is amazing. I love this.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: This is a.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: How many years or two do we have?
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: Three?
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: We Philly? Uh? It was Philly. So Philly Vaults was
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the first to l O and what.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Your Billy vault was was true double limb double.
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was double limb where I had like three
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: buys in a row or something.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: When I start on keyfordge time for minimum result.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: Yep. And the later you lost, the more the more
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: time you had to hang around and do nothing.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And I know there was a Facebook post that
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: you know, asked like, well, why is this what's important
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: about Swiss one? If you want to play KeyForge you can,
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: So I really think this is a much better.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Play key Forge without the Swiss Everybody who.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Couldn't No, no, such a.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Big deal to go play Second Amber.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: No, it's a it's okay. We can disagree on this,
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: because of.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Course we're going to disagree on that. That's the point
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: of the show.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Well, and you got to remember the different iterations that
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: went through this whole.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Time, right, that's not the point of the show, but great,
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: great for you, it's.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Kind of the point of the show. But you got
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: to remember the different iterations.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: Originally we had the original just double elimination and you
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: were out, which meant you sometimes had a lot of time.
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: Uh fuck all right, like no, you got whatever you wanted.
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: I think x Ray took a nap at one of
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: them until you had to be back. I remember that.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Like that that was and then and then they came
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: out with Tool and.
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: The people couldn't in the podcast world couldn't hear your
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: air quotes when said took a nap.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, took a nap.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: They couldn't see the wink yep yep ye.
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: There was going to my room and taking a nap,
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: and everybody does their me yeah, don't look for it,
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: don't see who comes to my door.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: But this this was a problem because while you're taking nap,
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: you're not playing key Forge. So the idea of having
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: consistent rounds where people are playing key Forge is important.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: And you yeah garbage.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: It was so to l O.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, I agree was a step up. I think it
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: did a better job. It just didn't work with your
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: small numbers. So alliance became problematic. And I will still
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: argue that you're there for an event. If if I
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: show up for Magic, I want to play Magic. If
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: I'm there for Stars Monies and I want to play
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: Stars Monnies, I'm here for key Forge. So early on
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: when I played key Forge, I was no good at
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: key Forge.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: All right, A lot of people show up to our
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: event to play Star Wars Minis.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a bit.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: At Star Wars Minis events, I'd play Star Wars minies.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: So when I met key Forge, I want to play
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: key Forge. And the idea if I go, if I'm
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: someone who's new, I don't have the background, and I
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: go oh two. Back in the day with Swiss, I
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: would just continue to play. It was built into the system.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: I got to play other people who were at the
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: same level. Great, now, sheep, you'll go ahead and argue.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: Yet you had second amber that you could go ahead
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: and join, but it was early on it was another process.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: They had to join to find people. You weren't always
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: finding individuals.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: Very on Second Amber was just find other people in
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: Second Amber and play correct. There was no there wasn't
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: like you're in the second Umber, you're playing this person now.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: So I think the iteration of tying it in worked
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: much better as people went on. Uh, but you also
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: fall into if I'm if I'm playing in day for
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Sealed and I opened up a stinker, what do I
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: want to go out and do? Do I want to keep
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: playing that same sealed deck? And then you know, I
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: thought you G staff did a nice job of Okay,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: you can open another deck, or you can find something,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: or you can talk with your opponent and decide. But
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: it provided less opportunity to do some side events, and
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: it also provided less parameters of what to do. So
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: it was open, Okay, I can choose what I want,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: but some individuals need the guidance to say I'm just
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: going to play this. And so I think that Swiss
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: really again solves a lot of problems. It provides people
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: an opportunity to play and Okay, you're not going to
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: make top cut when you've lost multiple games, but you
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: start to filter into spaces where people are essentially at
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: your tier that if I have gone aheadn't gone zero
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: to four? All right, Well, in the next round, I'm
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: going to play someone else who's at that same level
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: and that I had not necessarily seen when we were
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: over in the second amber. But I didn't have the
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: experience there, so I don't know how they were grouped it.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: I think Swiss provided the opportunity and it gives people
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: an option to continue to play with people are going
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: to be about your level. I like what Gigi is
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: written into the article, so I think the parameters of
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: this qualifying rounds top cut is really nice. I actually
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: am excited for the open and for events that have
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: large numbers. So notice that one fifty six there's a
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: top sixteen cut. But it what's exciting for me is
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: that playing any card game, in any other even board games,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Swiss is a very standard, easy to understand process, and
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: so it's something that again I don't have to think
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: too hard about if I'm new coming into the game.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: It's another way to go, Okay, this is like other games,
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: and then if I want to play something different, I can.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: So I'm excited for this to be able to see it.
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: My only gripe here, I'm I'm I'm fine with Swiss.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: I was to be honest with you as I finally
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: was really didn't care about too low. The only thing
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: that pissed me off the right it was whatever, But
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: like the only thing that pissed me off is like
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: how many times I ended up in playing rounds only
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: to fall in the playing round to not make that
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: top eight cut for whatever reason that happened to me.
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: I don't know, three or four times. It's like, why
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: am I always in the playing round and it never
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: makes sense.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: You're more excited for this where you just won't even
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: get the plane and you'll be cut because.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: You're the p Well, I mean that's actually that's actually
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: one of the things that.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Because because well, okay, but before remember there was no
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: strength of schedule. Now don't they have to be more
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: transparent about strength of schedule as we moved forward?
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: There was I think there was, yeah.
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: There was, but they always said there, oh, there's no
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: scroll ortrutive.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: Schedule didn't impact how it picked the buye that's what
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: strength the schedule didn't impact. But strength the schedule was
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: definitely used for top cut pairing stuff.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: Either way, that was always frustrating to me. But either way, yes,
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: I am happy to have Swiss spec.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm looking for with Swiss, which is
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: gonna happen. And everybody bitching about this after the third
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: event is in the second or going into the third
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: and fourth round. Half those players who are excited to
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: play their next game against somebody at their level finds
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: out that their player dropped but didn't drop and they
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: played right. I forgot to drop in the app. Yes, yes,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: because that's how Swiss goes. Because after two rounds, after
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: somebody's mathematically out, there is a contingent of players who
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: are done. They're they're in, they're in my camera, they're
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: going to play the minimum number of key Forge games.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: They need to find out that they were good or
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: not good enough this time. The well, if they.
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: Do the right thing and drop before the round starts,
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: then it'll all be fine.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: But yeah, but this is g and there no you know,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: dexter that none right and and then yeah.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: So here here's my question. Boys. We have the app
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: that we have been using for tool low, and yes,
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: it tells you to go ahead and submit afterwards. And
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: Josh is really good and always asking people to you
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: smit me like he is on top of that, but
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: it's there's still people that he has to help.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: People can't manage to drop.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: So my question really comes when you start the need
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: their needs? Should there.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: Needs? Number one, there needs to be harsher rules for
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: not submitting in a timely manner.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Well what's timely?
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: I don't think that.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Go ahead and implement and deal with that.
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: You are at a high level of my goodness of
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: the people at this event have been at these events
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: before you.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Because these do he's like a dumb ass if it's
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: your used to be run. They're just like a bunch
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: of friends having a good time. It ain't that serious.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: So my question is is it possible just to have
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: instead of a drop out, which again I think should
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: be there and should help. But when we start the round,
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: is it that big of a deal to have a
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: button that says I am here and I'm playing in
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the round. It's something else that has to be done.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: If you can't hit the drop out button, what makes
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: you think they're gonna hit that button? Yeah?
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: No, no, no no, Because here's the situation.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: They gotta wait the five minutes ver get to their
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: table and check it out. Oh these are the people
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: aren't here? Now we got to repair because we know
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: no actually here to play.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: Because here, here's here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna come
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: in if I have if I'm starting on two o'clock,
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: it is again at what one fifty five you have
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: reported and you're either here player.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: That's kind of go great when somebody misses the check
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: in or their app doesn't work, and then.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Then you have the five minutes to go up and
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: be able to talk.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: And then they have to repair if anything is done wrong.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Like I don't see that being very functional at all.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Again, this is why it's here. But many other card
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: games and other games can go ahead and run Swiss. Yes,
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: you do have to have a cutoff point. Yes you
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: do have some people.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: They just live. But the fact that people drop and
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: wander off because it's not that big of a deal.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: Well but it is a big deal when you go
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: ahead and and if you have two players that are
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: not if your opponent and my opponent both drop, then
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: we get a win off of a bye.
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: Well, no, you get a win off off a no show.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: It's a win off of a no show. But when
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: you have smaller numbers. Again, yes, it's there, but it's
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: not a good feel moment when you're going ahead and
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: looking at trying to be able to make it into
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: a top top cut. I don't know, doesn't bother you,
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: that's fine.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, but if you're at the two losses and
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: you're a potential next person is a bye. You're not
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: making a top cut anyways.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: So yeah, but very clear with people posting, they're very
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: interested to know where they finished in the middle of
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: the back.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Correct, sure, and it was like the old list of
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: one hundred people where am I at?
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: So yes people and that was cool And when you
• 41:01
  Speaker 5: got you know, uh, shards for it, like or points
• 41:06
  Speaker 5: or whatever, right, it felt like you were Yeah, I
• 41:11
  Speaker 5: felt like you you were accumulating points over a season, right,
• 41:13
  Speaker 5: and they were the leaderboard and like that was cool stuff.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: To be able to do.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Swiss is still too well ow to me. So I
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: am fine with whichever way they want to run it
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: because they both play the same.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: To me, the very similar you know what is weird
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: to me?
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: Like that the timing of this, like we like we
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: bitched ad vote about two l O so much because
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: like it was super weird to just not use Swiss right,
• 41:45
  Speaker 5: and then finally we're like, fine, whatever, I guess we'll
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: play this, and then we started didn't care anymore, like
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: we had given up.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Carri Azibo mentioned it's got to be because they know
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: eight and eight ish player Alliance event are going to
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: be the normal again this year. That's eight player to
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: l O is.
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: Uh, it's a it's a buy, you get to buy and.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: It's automatically into the top cut.
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: And this isn't so this is better, but it's not
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: massively better.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Now, So if you have an eight in a Swiss
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: style format, do you just go direct to top eight?
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Well, there's this thing called three to eight players, three
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: rounds top cut.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: None very clear, it's just you're you are straight playing
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: single limb, eight player single limb. But it's three rounds.
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: No, it's it's it's just three rounds. So, I mean
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: there is a an eight person event. Is there a
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: possibility that there could be multiple two ones?
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: No, and eight players. It's always fitted. It's you go
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: from eight players to four players to two players to
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: one's seven under under under that it gets messy because
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: you had definitely have this point where you have like
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: you can have an undefeated player playing x one player
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: and is this now the final round? So they're playing
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: best of three because the finals are still supposed to
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: be best of.
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: Three, are still the best of three, So that.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: That does like six players is really weird because it
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: could be a two one two one two one split
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: after round three. But which one of those people was
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: the finals? I don't know. Yeah, that can get that
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: can definitely get messy. It can still under eight players, it.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: Will depend on the software and how it's written. Is
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: to where where where some of the strength.
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: Josh said there Josh just said in the chat under
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: eight will have no no final matchup at all. So
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: you're literally just playing Swiss at that point.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: So not even final a best of three at the end. Wow.
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: Cool, So you're just playing you're playing straight Swiss. So yes,
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: you could have you could be two to one and lose,
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: or you could be three to oh or what you
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: two oh and next one and you can have two
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: players at two to one at the top. Yeap, Yes
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: that is possible.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: Well that's exciting. Well that's a problem for Alliance players,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: so that ain't us.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: I think this is good.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: I like now or sheep said it's gonna be a
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: problem for Alliance players, but after he wins like one
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: of them and is like, well, I'm gonna go for
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: Alliance now, and then is like becomes now, become.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: Out my problem. Now that's a future sheet problem, not
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: a current, not a today that's a problem. That's right.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: As I said, though, I think for worlds and for
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: KFC where the numbers can actually hit that one twenty plus,
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: I like the idea for a top sixteen. I like
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: that it is spelled out in something for us to
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: be able to shoot for. So the only complaint that
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: I had on here was well maybe potentially too, that
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: we still don't have play style for any locals. There
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: isn't really.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: I have it, we don't use it, but.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: I no, no, nobody uses play style though, so okay,
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: it's just.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Like it's like it's a lot of it is a
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: lot of doesn't mean that, and it doesn't automatically integrate
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: into the only thing we care about it locals anymore,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: which is key. Fake Internet points.
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: Internet. Why do we still not have fake Internet points
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: at gig.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: Well didn't they they Well, because it's in a design process,
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: they're still in beta given well, because.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Then once then once think Internet points become there, then
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: it becomes this whole thing like, oh, look, we're playing
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: extra events every week with extra players that don't exist
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: to give out extra fake points.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Because now I'm saying a leader I'm saying, just a
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: Vault Tour leaderboard. The only way to gain those fake
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: Internet points is to participate in the Vault Tour.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Didn't somebody somebody somebody was doing that.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: It was being run by one of our internationals last year.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: And they definitely track that stuff on key chain.
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: Now can you sort it just by just the Vault Tours.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: I'm about to go click on some things.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: So it Wookie. You were talking about this earlier. What
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: do you think of the idea for Brick. Here's a
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: straight cut. So instead of the playing rounds you're let's
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: say there are we'll go with what fifty six people
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: top cut and you finish it number nine or number ten.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: You have the same record as it's number nothing.
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: That's never happened to me before. It'll understand that and
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: then I move on with my day. I mean, I've
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: had this happen. I had this happen in Indianapolis. I
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: had that. I can't even tell you the amount of
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: times I ended I mean, but I ended up four
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: to two. So in a two l O system, I
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: was out anyways, right, So it didn't change much. Like
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: like Josh said in here, sometimes depending on a number
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: of players, four two can make it. I know that
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: when we get into higher like the But isn't.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: There some numbers in this where X ones don't make it?
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: In what in Swiss? Yeah, I don't know.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: It's possible, I suppose, because I know I'm trying to
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: these jays f FG days where X ones didn't make it.
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: But I think a lot of the times they just.
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: To their top cut was this many rounds anybody whose
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: X one goes and there would be odd numbers of players. Yep.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: Sometimes sometimes that's I mean, that was how it was run.
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: Then well, no, they they did have a top cut,
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: but because of some of the complaining that they didn't
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: have a chart very similar to this in the original days.
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: But then because of some of the complaining by a
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: few people. And I think we all, some of us
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: who have been around long enough knows who's who's those
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: people's worst. Yeah, we complain a lot. I mean we do.
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: I could just say the people's names if you want. No, okay,
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: so we'll leave it an anonymous for now. Mister Perfect, Yeah,
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: definitely was mister Perfect. It was him and his cohorts.
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: But because of some of the complaining, they're just like, well,
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: if it's X one, like we'll just do that, and
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: I don't I remember. They did have playing like the
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: two bottom seeds, like if it was like, oh, it
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: ends up being eleven or yeah whatever, it was like
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: ten people that finished X one, then the two, the
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: nine and ten would battle it off to see was
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: number nine, and then you would you would do X
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: onex but anyways, yeah, right whatever, Yeah, that's basically playing rounds, right,
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: and that's Cascade basically didn't have playing rounds. But then
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: once we went to YETI, they did have that kind
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: of like sometimes playing sometimes playing round.
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: Cool.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: Sorry I'm reading this. The cutoffs are designed so that
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: the round ends at one.
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: X O one.
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: All X ones normally make it, and there will be
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: a possibility of some X two. So you so that's
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: why you grind it out because you might be the
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: lucky unless you're like, you know, one and three, Well
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: you're not making it.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it comes, it comes down.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: It is three l O. Now once you've got three losses,
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: you can click.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: Pretty much. If if if it is not the beginning
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: of the event and you're at two losses, like if
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: it's round four and you're two and two, I guess
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: at two and two US might want us. Now you're
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: probably done.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you need to lose the last two rounds or
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: have lost against well, you have to have lost two
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: people who have super strong records.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Right, correct, So like when I want ahead in loss
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: in the first round in Vegas against dis this and
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: very close game that you know, finishing in one of
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: the top two, and my other loss was to someone
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: who finished in the top four, those two losses at
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: two l OH basically eliminated me completely, whereas my strength
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: of schedule probably would have actually allowed me to get in.
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: So if you look at it that way, that's potentially
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: where that X two comes in and you can start
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: to look But it is it's such a small number
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: that has any impact. For the most part, you want
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: to be able to make it in with just zero
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: losses or one loss.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: Right, I mean, still still my question still sits here.
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: As I was reading this article on I don't even
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: remember what day it was, Tuesday, Wednesday? Why why the change?
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Why of Alliance? Because so are Alliance is a disaster.
• 51:28
  Speaker 5: I think you're right, and I do think so this
• 51:31
  Speaker 5: this is something interesting and telling.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: Right, So if you were.
• 51:34
  Speaker 5: To ask what is CTP more committed to we we
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: may not have known the answer before, but if it
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: was too l O or Alliance, he is more committed
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: to Alliance than to too l O.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Good inference there, sir good?
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so sorry adaptive folks, another sacrifice toll before
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: allow Adaptive to become a main event.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: But but look.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: But can be official?
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: Is that's true? The true?
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: So there's maybe the silver lining.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: You can be somebody's side piece.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, well, I will say joking is joking aside
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: for the side piece. The idea for each Volture stop
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: hosted by gig will have one side event taking place
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: each day, so notice it's not here's on Sunday only.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: It allows Gig to be able to run some of
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: these more like we're potentially more profitable side events, more
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: engaging side events. You can you can have events that
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: maybe the local area is more interested in. I think
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: all of these are great things when you can look
• 52:45
  Speaker 2: at it at three day events, I now can have
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: three different Okay, I busted out on this day, I
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: have I have a nice side event to be able
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: to look forward to. So I think it's a good thing.
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: My wonder too, Yeah, I agree, my wonder too on
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: this one. Are these going to be anything goes? Are
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: only official official Gigi anointed formats?
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: No, No, they'll definitely be.
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: They'll do whatever they want to do.
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, it'll do it people want them to do.
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: Or it's just good. I mean, just sealed. Let's just
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: do sealed.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: What I think is interesting is Portland is roughly a
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: month away, so that's May fifteenth to the seventeenth. And
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: if you look here, it does say the exact nature
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: of each side event will be an out, so we
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: soon enough boys, within the next month, we should have
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: actual information because it says they're going to be prior
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: to each tour stop, they'll be able to tell you
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: what and that's important.
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: That horrible. You think that's actually gonna happen. You do,
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: you'll know what do you guys want to do?
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: I think it over under. I think that it has
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: to be at least a week out, but I think
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: it's going to be closer to at least two.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: That's that they're going to announce the event. It could
• 54:13
  Speaker 5: be cool, right, like remember back.
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: You think they're going to announce what's what the side
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: event is going to be?
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Why not?
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: You are insanely optimistic.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: If it's like I think, I think a week is
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: very reasonable. I think that you're probably closer reasonable.
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: But I think you're going to find out when you
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: get there.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: No, because you need to be able to have time.
• 54:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like you have to bring a deck from
• 54:45
  Speaker 5: you know, Amber Skies that has house you know whatever
• 54:50
  Speaker 5: has Brobner or something.
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: Right, you think that's going to be?
• 54:56
  Speaker 5: It could be.
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: I think you know we're playing Alliance. Who wants to
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: do Alliance?
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: We're doing an arcan. I mean maybe this is a
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: sealed pod.
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: Who wants to play?
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: I think you are so far off. Well, you need
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: they have a bunch of stuff that's been running the
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: past by fans that they can copy. They've got a
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: bunch of people begging for Alliance or for Adaptive. I
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: almost guarantee that gets run at every event on one.
• 55:24
  Speaker 5: Day, could be.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: Which is good, it needs to and then uh, and
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: then after this year it can you know, go back
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: where it belongs.
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: Who are you what you do with?
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: Sheep? Some weird dudes on the internet. She's one of
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: the weird dudes on the internet. We according to Josh,
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: we effectively take we we have filled the bad take
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: quota quite effectively. I mean we're here therefore, we are
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: here to over exceed your expectations. That's really all we're
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: here for. And by a c boys he I'm guessing
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: that's more pointed at me. Ye see, I hope, I
• 56:10
  Speaker 3: hope it is released a lot sooner. It's it's not
• 56:14
  Speaker 3: my hope that that it's not. My hope is that
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: there's a game plan.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: I wonder if there will be consistent team Sunday events again.
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that would be a lot of fun. Team
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: events are always good. Can it be run with Vault
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: Master twenty three again?
• 56:35
  Speaker 5: Why not.
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: Play? You think they're still getting three hanging around? No,
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: if you're I don't know, probably not. Maybe some DT
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: floating around over there somewhere that DT. Definitely some God, it's.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: Gonna be sealed DT.
• 56:54
  Speaker 5: You know what, It's gonna be sealed aptive and then
• 56:57
  Speaker 5: quick Draw is not going to be there. He's gonna
• 57:01
  Speaker 5: be sad.
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: I will play if if you can get me a
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: box of DT for twenty bucks, I will play the
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: old Alliance DT.
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 57:11
  Speaker 5: I don't think you can get a twenty bucks.
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: Why I'm saying if we do, like I'm in, I
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: might either.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: I think you think GG would put that stuff on sale.
• 57:24
  Speaker 5: They want the value right like they learned from the
• 57:27
  Speaker 5: fire sale. Now you can get a DT display on
• 57:33
  Speaker 5: eBay right now, free delivery. Yeah, that's what I'm reading too.
• 57:38
  Speaker 5: Josh says you can have my throne of DT over
• 57:41
  Speaker 5: my dead body. Is that because of the fits chair?
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: It's just yeah, the DT yeah? Yeah, and all those
• 57:49
  Speaker 5: Is it an empty throne where you're just sitting in
• 57:51
  Speaker 5: empty boxes?
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: Though?
• 57:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all the like AA play mats are his, like
• 57:56
  Speaker 5: the cushy part of the chair, the cushy part of
• 57:58
  Speaker 5: the padding.
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: I'm still a little salty. Our our local store, which
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: does not exist, wow, doesn't exist for a play spase anymore,
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: would not go ahead and let us have like the
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: sweet price support matts unless we had a certain amount
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: of people and then the pandemic happened and we didn't
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: get them anyway.
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then he gave yeah, so game, that's somebody
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: and they tried to sell them and nobody bought them
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: because that there.
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's just more fun to give them out to
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: people like just here you go, you showed up.
• 58:35
  Speaker 3: You can we can hold on.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Every dollar.
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: I think you can get six Dark Tidings boxes for
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: two eighty nine. That's fifty box crying.
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's still twice what I'm willing to pay. Yeah,
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: that twenty twenty dollars is a box price. I will
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: pay twenty bucks to play.
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: I'm working my magic.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: I will.
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: I will actually go up to thirty. I will tell
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: you that. I know, big spender, tell you big spender.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: Oh like it?
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: It was fun?
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 59:13
  Speaker 4: Boy?
• 59:14
  Speaker 3: Can we just buy somebody else's crap decks that aren't
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: open yet and just hand them out?
• 59:18
  Speaker 5: No, I mean that is that is what.
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: I can't get a new Evil Twin. I'm not interested.
• 59:23
  Speaker 3: Oh well, that's true, I forgot about Evil Twins. Should
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: we can? Also we can also get low decks that
• 59:31
  Speaker 3: are the same as other Wow decks. Whoa exact twins
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: and right for that?
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: But no, because part of the part of the fun
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: of cracking, even though it is most likely not going
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: to be relevant at all in the present meta. You
• 59:51
  Speaker 2: can potentially pull something fun. So Pete, you're still here?
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: Did you pull an AOA deck that actually was fun
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: and and something that you know showed up on SaaS
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: is a little bit higher?
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 6: Definitely higher SaaS. I haven't gone through them yet to
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 6: see if I have any bangers for SaaS Champs, but
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 6: I'm sure they're in there.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: The ple Ortano deck that you didn't choose to play,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: so yes, I think, really you lost? How dare you?
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: I played Artanu.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: My story champs? How did you do that? Differ?
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: I was a solid to one.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 6: But let me say the giga deck I opened is
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 6: a ninety five or ninety six SASS, So it's it's
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 6: like in the top thirteen all time AOA deck SAS
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 6: wise you know something later, so that's pretty awesome.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: So again that gem is still out there in that
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: nineties or why Yeah, and for AOA like a ninety
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: six SASS was amazing.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was that was hot amber control of four
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: point five speed though twenty three.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 5: So this is this top what hold on? So to
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 5: expected Ember, Oh, I gotta look at this. I'll find
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 5: the monsieur of inertia. M Oh, look at this, all right,
• 1:01:17

• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: It's only one eight on the draft score. What do
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: you mean you could mar generosity and then uh, there's
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: a helper bot, so you could definitely helper Bot Martian
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: Generosity and then c x Y researcher to get it back.

  Speaker 1: Quick draw with the giant brained alien of bat Cove.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 6: I could, I could challenge quick draw and he doesn't
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 6: want to play because it remained best of three. I
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: just got to give it seven days. He won't match

  Speaker 6: bring to SaaS Champs. Go ahead and pop into SaaS
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 6: Chumps and let somebody else play with that trash.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: Is there a like? Is that also have a I
