- 1:15It was really really tight race between between the teams. We were within just
- 1:22a point or two of the leader. Now at this point, we have
- 1:26played all of our games and it is not mathematically possible for us to win.
- 1:33And it's I haven't done the math, but I believe at this point

- 2:58Hello Keyboards community. So we're all here. We're gonna go into uh
- 3:02into part two of our little spoilers fun. But first, dazz Car what's
- 3:07happening in a bar? Also a bar is coming to its conclusions. So
- 3:13we are in the final weeks of the playoffs. Coming into this week,
- 3:17I was feeling feeling good right, feeling feeling like I knew we had a
- 3:23chance. It was really really tight race between between the teams. We were
- 3:29within just a point or two of the leader. Now at this point we
- 3:35have played all of our games, and U it is not mathematically possible for
- 3:39us to win, and it's I haven't done the math, but I believe
- 3:43at this point Inspector Gadgets is going to win. That is, I believe
- 3:52JT. Russell's team. So congratulations. I feel like there needs to be
- 3:58y'all watch football, right, M just me? I do? Okay?
- 4:03Sometimes so you ever see the things on like social media where they're like the
- 4:08Detroit Lions have been mathematically eliminated. Yes, you know, like, I
- 4:13feel like that needs to be a thing at a bar. That's basically basically
- 4:16where we're at as these final games are playing out. So I feel announced
- 4:21on Twitter or something or in like multiple discords. M. You know what
- 4:26I mean? No, I don't know. Maybe that's just me again.
- 4:29I have a whole bunch of ideas for a bar, but everybody hates them,
- 4:31so of course we're just gonna move for well, so we are right,
- 4:36So I is likely that we will end in second place. I don't
- 4:42think that's guaranteed, but just looking at the scores remaining games, teams like,
- 4:46well, you know, we've a pretty decent chance ending in second place,
- 4:48which is a pretty good run. So congratulations a second at least?
- 4:55How many team is me? How many teams around this time? Around teams?
- 5:02Okay, ten teams this season? So uh um, But because you
- 5:10guys did it a little different this time? No, I mean there was
- 5:14more players per team. They did. Depending on how many people sign up,
- 5:18they'll vary a little bit the number of teams and the number of players.
- 5:21So we did at one point tried just eight teams but with more players
- 5:27per team, and then we've gone all the way to twelve teams before.
- 5:32Um, so it has changed around a little bit from I guess I was
- 5:38just more players now than there was in like previous years. So it's eleven
- 5:44players per team, so ten teams and hundred and ten players. Okay,
- 5:48what did you have? What was there in previous years? It's fluctuated,
- 5:51I think, I um, I don't think this is peak now we had,
- 5:59uh, it's not far from it. Yeah, I think we had
- 6:01in the one twenties or maybe even one thirties before. Okay, Um,
- 6:08but it was still pretty good turnout, right, coming coming back from from
- 6:12hiatus but not yet full on back. Um. Pretty pretty pleased so and
- 6:19had a whole bunch of good folks on the team, uh, including the
- 6:25MVP of the team, doctor sheep. How many games did you lose this
- 6:33season? I'm trying to remember if I actually lost the game in any of
- 6:42you did threes? Oh, the best of threes. I don't know,
- 6:45I don't know, I don't I might not have lost a single game this
- 6:47day, are you, sir? Congratulations? I apologize profusely for drafting x
- 6:56Ray before you, and that will not happen again. Would have one if
- 7:00if x Ray didn't perform pass his name suggests. But that's truly truly a
- 7:11heroic, heroic effort, and you had the in the playoffs you were playing
- 7:16Ubliette, if I remember correctly, right, yes, And I do actually
- 7:19have to say a big thank you to x Ray. If we're letting me
- 7:21borrow a deck for the Ubliette. So and you guys and the team found
- 7:28the deck that got me through jank week because I would have never found that
- 7:31deck on my own. But it's pretty exciting because outside of the one deck
- 7:36I borrowed from x Ray, I actually did this with just decks in my
- 7:41collection. Yeah, he means deck, just deck. Just that's two really
- 7:49important wins for frauds. That's eighteen hundred dollars a win. So it's getting
- 7:54down there right at the point that it's one hundred bucks a win. It
- 7:59was a good bye there you go. Yeah, I mean Billy is coming
- 8:03up, So watch out, sheep. You are going to Philly, right,
- 8:07sheep? I I am going to Philly. I think we draft cre
- 8:11You live in Philly, so if you don't go, you have no excuse.
- 8:13And I think so everyone's going. He walk's going, right, you
- 8:16walk your going? I am yes? So um, I mean maybe you'll
- 8:20get that get that ratio down some. But speaking of x Ray, for
- 8:26those of you following the x Ray saga on our discord channel, x Ray
- 8:30has gotten his stuff, but it is missing pieces sort of is missing two
- 8:37displays. I mean this is kind of just I mean, this has happened
- 8:41before, right, We've heard of people missing things. Um, I can't
- 8:46remember with it Jason who is missing a bunch of stuff from his box.
- 8:50There's a lot, There's there's a lot of people missing stuff. There is
- 8:52a lot. But this is coming across as a telenovela, like straight up,
- 8:56it just keeps twisting and turning. You think you're going to get the
- 9:01story and then it just takes another side turn. So it's been great.
- 9:03I've loved watching it. Sorry to you x Ray for not um getting all
- 9:09your stuff. But I am highly entered. I think this is done on
- 9:11purpose. But I am highly entertained. Oh man, you know we should
- 9:16have done Oh he left, he's he just left the He's so I did.
- 9:24I did lose one to Jason and try that's right. He he heard
- 9:30of the forest and be hard nice. I like it as as Jason is
- 9:33like too. Yeah, I like it, But but you won the won
- 9:37the overall match, so doesn't matter. But very very well done. But
- 9:45to keep up with the x Ray chronicles, you can join us over on
- 9:48our discord. You can find a link down in the description below. I
- 9:52am highly entertained. Each day that goes past, X Ray has more and
- 9:58more smoke blowing out of his ears. Um, hey, at least his
- 10:03big order shipped. That's true. You are still waiting for our stuff.
- 10:07Yeah they did. My x ray sucks decked out to me timely, reasonably
- 10:13year. But my actual order with like my personal decks. No wait wait
- 10:18wait so you just got did you get that through somebody else's order or they
- 10:24just shipped your ray? Um? Work ordered me one. I ordered one
- 10:28through my work account and I ordered one through my personal account. I totally
- 10:33cheated the system, double free me rewards. Wow, wow, look at
- 10:39you and they listen that one coming like that was not going to happen.
- 10:48Yeah, weird how people never mind? Yeah, and then my my order
- 10:54did come with the wrong color. My custom stuff is the wrong color?
- 10:58Was that even an option? Could you? Okay? Yeah, you pick
- 11:05your color? Well, some of us picked our colors whatever they sent us.
- 11:11I knew there was talk about it, like people were asking if they
- 11:13could pick their color, but I never remember the response on it, because
- 11:16I mean the color from from well, for me, at least, the
- 11:20color is such a trivial thing, you know, like I yes, it's
- 11:24I don't actually care, so yeah, I will say on the custom mats
- 11:31that are much bigger, the all call them better colors are They're vibrant,
- 11:37way better because like the gray is just you know, I didn't order the
- 11:41gray, but even the yellows not that exciting. Uh. Like the purples
- 11:46and the blues and the reds they look real nice. My arm is pretty
- 11:48good. The orange they sent me nice, it's satisfying nice. I will
- 11:54say, I got my large order. I'm very very excited for it.
- 11:58Um, there was a little glitch in one of my named decks, and
- 12:01this was the name deck for my two girls. It did come up with
- 12:07an air and I'm pretty sure that was due to the an sign that was
- 12:11there. Um. Ironically, the underscore for Ewak Junior did show up fine,
- 12:18but I had lady Evie and Emory, and it has Lady Evie and
- 12:24then there's a space and all you get is the ry from Emory. So
- 12:33it's minor. But the MP colin well, it doesn't even have the an.
- 12:37It doesn't have the start of the second name. And again it's minor
- 12:41compared to what other people, but it is it is a little frustrating.
- 12:45All right, So clearly they're not properly escaping some of their strings. So
- 12:50the next time they do this, you do you know, little Bobby drops
- 12:54tables right that dext casey D and we see what happens. Right, absolutely,
- 13:05yep, talking about sounds like a plan. Some people listening to know
- 13:09what I'm talking about. There's probably a ton that they're like, yeah,
- 13:11that saw the good idea, But like for the rest of us, we're
- 13:16just like m hmm, yep, whatever you say. So that is what
- 13:20it is. Um, obviously I'm sure I don't. Do they have a
- 13:24support portal open for anybody? Are they just saying that email there is that
- 13:28email is what you're going through? Yeah, just that info or whatever at
- 13:31Yeah, it's on our website. Yeah. I think it's just Jeremy at
- 13:35Ghost Galaxy. Yeah, it's just poor overworked guy at yep up and it's
- 13:45just starting because he's going to be running your vault tours too. So yeah,
- 13:50I emails from his van as he driving across the country with all this
- 13:54stuff. Right, why do I see? Um? I see Jeremy in
- 14:00the van with like the little headsets so he can be in a meeting,
- 14:03and then he's typing emails over on the side, so he's doing all three
- 14:05things at once. This could be a nice little parody piece that we have
- 14:09going. But obviously make sure if you are missing pieces, contact ghost Galaxies.
- 14:13We don't know the remedy as of such items you got, but hopefully
- 14:18they get this get this resolved for you in a timely manner. I'm not
- 14:24sure did they say whether woldext we're gonna be legal at Philly yet or do
- 14:30we not know? Are we still kind of wondering? Oh, I'm sure
- 14:33they will be. Yeah. I mean, they're scannable, so why would
- 14:35they not be. Well, we've had times where they've had a vault tour.
- 14:39I think AOA fell on a Vault tour and I don't think it was
- 14:43legal right away. I don't know. Well, I guess a lot of
- 14:46card games, you know, a set will release in that set's not legal
- 14:50for you know, this tournament, and then you know for the future,
- 14:52you know, it doesn't it doesn't become legal till a certain date. Yeah,
- 14:56it's often release weekend. I don't know what the we actual technical release
- 15:01date of Winds of Exchange is, um probably after but we continue. Is
- 15:11this for is this for uh the United States? Is this for the world?
- 15:16I mean? And we have had that with World's Collide in the past,
- 15:18where it's been released in different countries. Um, I guess a issue.
- 15:24But let stuff though, have they they've just yeah, like if you
- 15:30got it and you can play it, yep, targets basically like Monaco,
- 15:35right, pretty much? All right, Well, we're gonna go into part
- 15:43two of our spoilers season. Um, we only have nine cards to go
- 15:46through and we'll see, well, we'll put them all into this session for
- 15:50sure, but we're missing a z so Jazz card. Do you want to
- 15:54do the obligatory spoiler warner? Sure? Yeah, So we're gonna talk about
- 15:58stuff that if you don't want to hear it, uh, don't listen,
- 16:04perfect because it's spoilers. Is that about spoilers? Is that just about our
- 16:10podcast in general? Just don't listen. You know, we have not We're
- 16:15just five crotchety old men barking at clouds like clouds. That's certainly we are
- 16:25going to talk about spoilers. So if you don't want to be spoiled for
- 16:29grimm reminders, then we will see you next time, Bye bye, all
- 16:33right midyear wise Oh yeah, but midyear festivity is this is an equedon action
- 16:45play. Choose nine creatures, move all ember on the chosen creatures to their
- 16:49controllers, pools, destroy the chosen creatures. Does it seemed like a card
- 16:56that could end up being a little well, I guess, I don't know,
- 16:59could have a little bit broken. I'm not sure. It's super situational
- 17:03and will also lead to very very powerful plays. Yeah, as we have
- 17:10seen a problem that exists in Woe and you know often exists in dark Tidings
- 17:19decks is there's lots of ways to capture amber and there are so few ways
- 17:25to do anything with it but give it back and this card, this card
- 17:30lets you do that or if they're significantly outboarding you, it's a one sided
- 17:36board wipe. If they're not capturing number like, this card has a lot
- 17:40of upside and also it will be as often just discarded. But I think
- 17:48in eighty percent or something, I don't know, I'm making up numbers,
- 17:52but often enough when you play this, just the nine creatures will be the
- 17:56nine creatures on the board and it's just like a full board wipe. Anyways,
- 18:00and it will still be fine. I would say nine creatures is a
- 18:04lot. And then but you have to choose nine creatures exactly nine creatures.
- 18:11Yeah. Well, I mean if you do as much as you can,
- 18:14right, if there's always seven on the board, I can choose seven,
- 18:17right, yes? Or is that has it become unplayable if there's not nine?
- 18:22No, no, no, it's it's as much as you can.
- 18:23But if it's it's nine. Though, if there's more than nine creatures,
- 18:27you can't make eight. It is it's not nine? Yes? Yeah,
- 18:33So I kind of thought this as more of I mean against a coda.
- 18:37This is a board white, maybe not an AOA maybe nah, maybe a
- 18:42world's collide. Well, I mean it gets better against sets with lots of
- 18:49creatures potentially, right, because right, think about so let's let's imagine the
- 18:56future where h you know someone must are correct and woe spam wo token spam
- 19:03as a thing, and you know you're gonna get matched up against this,
- 19:07and there's gonna be more than nine creatures on the board and you can pick
- 19:11and choose and keep your stuff you care about the most alive. And maybe
- 19:18there's even enough creatures to you know, pick around. Um there, yick
- 19:23slicks whatever, capture two on all their Mars guys or whatever. They're rebels
- 19:29whatever they call this ironic stuff. Maybe not, or they're you know,
- 19:33go round the ether Spider. That's a better example. Um, and still
- 19:38kill the things you need to kill. So I think it's great. Like
- 19:44board wipes are normally good even if you discard them, you know, decent
- 19:48percentage of the time. It doesn't have chains on it. Yeah, yeah,
- 19:53So I'm I like this card a lot. It is rare. It's
- 19:57rare. It is about this set. We do know. I believe we
- 20:02know the seven houses, do we not? Yep, We've got Mars,
- 20:07we have untamed, we have fish, We've got ghosts, we have equity.
- 20:15You mean we have ghosts. Okay, we have ghosts. I'm not
- 20:18ghosts, trash ghosts, garbage ghosts if you will, Gigi Weird Story and
- 20:25um Star Aliance. So we are missing some Oh I'm sorry, did I
- 20:33not say Brober already? Maybe Actually you're missing Sanctum and Zorian. You're missing
- 20:41Sanctum and Story on the two big capture houses. So finally you get a
- 20:45card to handle your capture and uh, it's maybe bad. This is like
- 20:49par for the course that I feel for a key for it, because it's
- 20:52like, oh, finally a card that does that thing that I needed it
- 20:55to do, but now I don't have any other any of the other card
- 20:56that I needed it to do it with. Crazy. Yeah, well,
- 21:03yeah, it's interesting. We'll see. But still no logos, still no
- 21:07shadows. Yep, it's here, Sad Sad, Sad Wookie. But let's
- 21:15go into Narl Gibbus. He is a three power untamed creature. Play slash
- 21:22after reap enraged Narl Gibbus, search your deck and discard pile for Werewolf Curse
- 21:30and attach it to Narles Gibbus. And I suppose we should probably go into
- 21:34Werewolf Curse because that is also a card, and I'm assuming they'll be attached
- 21:40to each other. But that is a untamed upgrade. This creature gains Skirmish
- 21:45splash attack three and after fight destroy Werewolf Curse. I don't want to see
- 21:52any narls Gibbus in my decks. Yeah. This, as we sit here
- 21:56and look at it, it feels pretty vomiting. I guess it's about this,
- 22:07like if there's no PIP. This is absolutely awful right, this is
- 22:11um well, so this is okay without it. This is vaguely in line
- 22:21of Toden Zenos, Yeah, but vaguely. It's definitely not the same thing.
- 22:26But it's a creature that can reap for one or kind of fight,
- 22:33right because skirmish splash attack because they really love splash attack. Now, wow
- 22:38do they love splash attack? Now? Um well, tokens, Yeah,
- 22:44it's it's the thing. I don't know why he fights and loses his werewolf
- 22:49curse, but I guess it's what it is. Trying to get z in
- 22:56here now. He said he doesn't want to come. Leave him alone.
- 23:00He just said, he just said, don't bring me up, So don't
- 23:03drag me up. I thought he said, so dragged me up. Miss
- 23:07that don't But this seems kind of like who cares? No this this it's
- 23:15deadline Zenos toad there right, it's pulling two bad cards into your deck.
- 23:21Now if if there's a pip on warrewolf curse, which kind of has to
- 23:25be right, it's not as awful, but it's still pretty awful. At
- 23:29least this junk actually searches your deck, and it's not like half the other
- 23:33cards that do this where if the card's buried in your deck, it's just
- 23:37total trash. M this at least searches it. You would have really thought
- 23:41where Wolf Curse was gonna do more? Yeah, I mean it's splash attack
- 23:52all right, like at least like ready something. Yeah, I mean yeah,
- 23:59when we have enough. Right, that's even worse than Werewolf Curse.
- 24:02So yeah, let's move on. What what would I don't know what would
- 24:04make werewolf curs playable like two PEPs, but then it just gets gobbled up
- 24:10by in furnace. Fight, steals, fight gains a ton, fight turns
- 24:15the other creature into the werewolf, and you well take it steal like all
- 24:19kinds of stuff. Steel is not a very untamed thing. So you knew
- 24:22that wasn't coming. There's like, I mean, I mean, how many
- 24:27cards by a werewolf. You're you're saying, what makes it good? Which
- 24:33I listed things that might make it? Okay? You want things that are
- 24:37thematic, which it's on tame. So what it's a cheat? Oh by
- 24:45sounds good to me? Go find after a fight after five put a werewolf
- 24:51token on fought creature. If there's three werewolf tokens for jacky for something yeah,
- 24:57or just breading the curve spread a key at plus three. Anyways,
- 25:03he's bad. Let's talk about Proton syphen, which is even worse, which
- 25:07is just as bad. Proton is an upgrade for a Star Alliance while you
- 25:12are haunted this Creature Game Splash attack three. Oh boys, splash attack butted.
- 25:23So it's situational again if this one doesn't have a pip um this word
- 25:29two. Okay, thank you. Let's just make it furnace awful. I
- 25:37mean it's already bad situation, Like just a card that said Creature Game Splash
- 25:41attack three not actually that strong? Okay, pretty good, but not oh
- 25:48my gosh good. No, Narls from the last one was in the preview
- 25:53pack. Between that and Proton Syphen, these are really really really sad sad
- 25:57card. Yeah, but I'm saying like this this is these two are specifically
- 26:03sad. I mean the idea for Narles also coming with a linked rarity for
- 26:07where of curse makes it even worse. Approach on Blake. Yeah, why
- 26:11do we even want to have this upgrade? Is the question that I'm asking
- 26:15myself, Because if you're fighting, you're oh wait, if you're fighting,
- 26:18you're losing. That's right. So yeah, this is a bad guard.
- 26:22I'm not happy with it. Yeah, two pips on a transporter platform.
- 26:29Some more pips you put on it. The just more relevant you make in
- 26:32furnace every every time you so you just want so everything needs to be in
- 26:41furnace, per So this what says Reap Game four extra. I just want
- 26:45to ban in furnace, to be honest with the get rid of it.
- 26:49I mean, like I none of these, Like I, let's let's find
- 26:55some cars that we care about, because this was another one that makes us
- 26:57go, we're coming up on a good one. On Sandworm. Oh yes,
- 27:02it's an Equedron creature, sixteen power, no armor on that bad boy.
- 27:07Everybody also noticed that the Narl does not have the little squiggly in the
- 27:11armor, where every other creature that doesn't. He might have an armor value
- 27:15and maybe I don't have it. Maybe, yeah, I kind of noticed
- 27:21creatures have armor. I think Zeno says armor. I think he's got an
- 27:25armor on one. Now he's got an armor. He's just six power in
- 27:29armor. This is only four power. Right, fur was sick, So
- 27:33I don't know why. Maybe I don't know. I just have weird things.
- 27:37I noticed no squiggle in the armor box. Yeah, I mean they're
- 27:41all about right, brom. But the ability on Sandworm is after fight,
- 27:48slash, after reap, shuffle sand Worm back into your deck. Oh great,
- 27:56So this could have two pips. So is this not just like hopefully
- 28:02it has a yeah pip on it and then it's just a really fat map
- 28:06the map map. Yeah maybe, I mean it has no only no negatives
- 28:11for being sixteen power, which normally it would be like comes into place,
- 28:15I think I could do anything. Go back to your deck is a pretty
- 28:19huge negative. Yeah. Well yeah, that kind of negative that makes me
- 28:23not want this card. Yeah, this is worse than comes into play stunned
- 28:27probably. But if it's got two pips, right, Briar Grubbling has armor,
- 28:33No, I don't know. No, it's hazardous five right, Bombex
- 28:40Bombex is your two sile the bombex there you go, the pokemon that's right.
- 28:42But but if it if it has two pips, you know, he's
- 28:47got two pips for sure, I'll take its flow, right, do it?
- 28:52Yeah? I doubt it does. But if it has two pips,
- 28:56I mean, if it's got two pips actually, because it's real good because
- 29:00now it can fight kill something completely and then shuffle it back in your deck
- 29:04with no damnage. I'm pretty wouldn't be good, but I would not hate
- 29:11it. One pip it'll be good and sealed. Yeah. Two, two,
- 29:18you get your pip, you get your body. Then maybe you get
- 29:19the pipping gat. Yeah. See it would be okay. I wouldn't okay,
- 29:26just so are accurate. It is bombix. And then the only other
- 29:30thing in on TAM that has armor are when they have the Sanctum Combo creatures.
- 29:37Oh right, right right, very little, not a lot of armor.
- 29:41That's probably not gonna have it. They're a scantily clad house so yep,
- 29:47scantily gotta have those long cloths. They're in the use of light armor.
- 29:53Yeah all right, Uh, let's move into one with a little bit
- 30:00more text. Spontaneous Awakening. This is a ghost card or a gey stoid.
- 30:07Why not just call him ghosts? I don't understand, but it is
- 30:11an action play. If your opponent is haunted, destroy an enemy artifact,
- 30:18cyborg, or robot. If you do, after the card is destroyed,
- 30:22put it into play under your control. While under your control, it belongs
- 30:29to house guystoid, So there's the haunted thing, but otherwise it's it's sort
- 30:38of like borrow, but because it actually destroys it and puts it into play,
- 30:44it does exhaust it, so you can't borrow and immediately use it.
- 30:51Little thin though, don't you think? Okay, so you get to choose
- 30:53an artifact, a cyborg or a robot yep, because they eight logos most
- 31:00things that aren't in this set. So well, the Guy stories are gonna
- 31:07have a bunch of robots so I can kill I guess they are, because
- 31:11yeah, I mean the creature we talked about last time, the robot and
- 31:18as is I believe is uh Um. I'm wondering if you're gonna have a
- 31:23bucket of cyborgs too. I think I think grim Reaper is a cyborg,
- 31:29might be right, Walkbot grim Reaper yeah, ye cy yeah, I don't
- 31:40remember. Off Top is a robot. The the house spots on it today.
- 31:47She got this purples and this yellows. It's very like the striking.
- 31:52Do you think they like heard us complaining about how uh Equitan was like too
- 31:59close to Ober in color? No, I'm piss I'm used to it.
- 32:02It doesn't look the same at all, but like in the beginning, it
- 32:05did, and they're like, let's get crazy. I do like purple and
- 32:08gold for for Geystoid. Now they stole, they stole, they stole ac
- 32:14color scheme. We're We're definitely. Everything I've ever done is always almost always
- 32:23ah okay, Well, anyways, this card is totally functional. It is
- 32:28slightly delayed because they have to be haunted. But the haunted cards are are
- 32:34tough when your opponent has to be haunted because like first half of the game,
- 32:37they're just gonna be pitching cards and that's that's kind of sad. Oh
- 32:46my, is my audio better now? I think he's saying his audio cut
- 32:52out. Oh okay, as drass War is not in our channel right now,
- 32:57he's kind of wonder what's going on? Is Yeah, So the haunted
- 33:00thing is gonna be a little tough, but this artifact control is always good.
- 33:05This isn't quite purge it is. So this one is really interesting and
- 33:10put into play. Like I said, it comes into play on your side
- 33:15exhausted, but it's also put into play. So if you do this to
- 33:17it, eton's jar it gets put back into play, which means it never
- 33:22gets its play effect, and it's sitting there and doing nothing right. It's
- 33:25not actually blocking any cards. So this this is a pretty interesting card.
- 33:37I like it. I just don't know how functional it's going to be.
- 33:39Quite yet, it's as good as any artifact control for the most part.
- 33:46Fair enough, Let's go to one of my favorites from the preview, spoo
- 33:52Key charge ah ah just me huh Now it's it's it's a pretty good pun
- 34:00name. I dug it. I dug it a lot, but it is
- 34:05untamed. When I hear spoo my name, my brain just goes to a
- 34:08different word. So no family show we are families are families show? Well,
- 34:19maybe I don't know. Drasscre is having some technical difficulties, so check
- 34:23your settings Drasscore. But but we're looking at spookey play. If you are
- 34:30haunted Orge ky a current costs, shuffle our discard pile into your deck,
- 34:37so that means this won't be in your discard pile when you shuffle right,
- 34:43So it will not it will not come back to you, not not instantly.
- 34:46But it's untamed. And they often have cards that let you dig from
- 34:52your trash heap. Well, not only that, I mean if this is
- 34:57a common yeah, but it'll be a limited one key charge or they've pretty
- 35:04traditionally always made keycheets limited one wow in common like key production is not limited
- 35:13one. But anyways, I almost certain this will be limited way. A
- 35:17key charge is definitely limited one. I'd have to go look at it.
- 35:20But that was under fe over a watch. I don't think you'll see a
- 35:25change there. But keycheets are good. This is a key cheet where you
- 35:30have to have ten cards in your discard, like halftime. You don't have
- 35:34sex amber until there's that many cards over there anyway, so that doesn't seem
- 35:38bad shuffling your discard pile back in like that's it kind of depends. Like
- 35:45if your first ten cards got you on a spooky in a key, like,
- 35:50they're probably fine to go back in the deck. I like spooky chart.
- 35:53I mean there's no there's no tax, so it's straight up six unless
- 35:58you're being taxed by something else. I think it could be good. Definitely
- 36:04seems fine. It is. It is very hard to loop it on the
- 36:09same turn though, right because like you shuffle in your discard, so even
- 36:13if you have nep seed or an equivalent or whatever is going to be in
- 36:17this set. You can't do it immediately. Again, I think it could
- 36:22be good. And again, it depends on where you're haunted and where you're
- 36:25not, because you know, obviously we talk about you know, even late
- 36:30game, are you haunted at that point and not? Sometimes you are,
- 36:34sometimes you're not. So I mean, it could be an out of nowhere
- 36:37just like I spooky charge and game win. Or it could be like I
- 36:43need to get cards with my discard pile, or it's I played five cards
- 36:46and I have four laughs, so I drop and flip and that's when I
- 36:50get my spooky and then I feel really dumb yep, and I can't keep
- 36:53each charge. Yeah, that was the next piece. I was gonna say.
- 36:55It's probably gonna happen quite often, yep, because it's always going to
- 37:00be the last card in your deck, because that's how the game works.
- 37:02Do we have draft? Gar back? Okay? Draft? Yeah, I'm
- 37:06back. I I restarted the computer outs working again. I don't know how
- 37:08to um. You had to flip on the the enhancements button. He just
- 37:13had to flip that switch. Yep, yep. I was like, what
- 37:15does this do? And it was all better. Uh huh um so so
- 37:23yeah, spooky charge. I do like this. I think you're right,
- 37:27there's gonna be um. You know, sometimes it can be important to count
- 37:32how many cards you left in your deck right right now, for for woe.
- 37:37Right you're counting how many cards are left in your deck to like make
- 37:39sure you flip and uh you can generate tokens here. You might be saying,
- 37:45oh, I want to not flip so that I can trigger spooky charge.
- 37:51Um. So, but keycheets are good. We don't have a lot
- 37:55of fum. It looks like that's common. Yeah. I do wonder,
- 38:00Yeah, I do wonder if we're gonna see um the only one rule on
- 38:06this. Yeah, she brought up the only one rule. Okay, I
- 38:08wasn't here for that. Yeah, yeah, I do think that that only
- 38:12one rule. What's interesting is it doesn't purge itself like the present key cheats
- 38:15that we're seeing from the last couple of sets. So I like that aspect
- 38:19and I'd much rather have here's one and you can cycle it. Where's the
- 38:23fun in that? I want? I want to here's one and repeat it.
- 38:28I want one turn kills awful to play again? What alliance yease,
- 38:39are no fun. Right, Let's move into ten drils from beyond. This
- 38:46is a fish guard play return a creature to its owner's hand if its controller
- 38:52is haunted, or to each of that creature's neighbors to its owner's hand.
- 38:58Like better have a freaking pip on it, because this is a bad Nature's
- 39:05call, is what it is? Did we we don't have a lot of
- 39:09bounce post mm, Yeah, there's less targeted. There's less like Nature's Call
- 39:21and um lost in the woods retargeting. There's bounce all the lowest creatures or
- 39:29shuffle or put them all back on top of your deck that ye put on
- 39:31top of deck that there's a lot of which bubbles bounce But yeah, this
- 39:39tendrils Like it's fine like bounce maybe bounce three, but that you can't target
- 39:46and um if they are haunted, you have to bounce it and its neighbors,
- 39:54which you know often you don't want to put creatures back in their deck
- 39:58because they got good play effects. So this is I mean, the card
- 40:01is fine, but it's just not nearly the strength of some of the other
- 40:07bounce cards. It's too restrictive. It does let you return your own creatures.
- 40:15I was going to bring it up. You are able to turn your
- 40:16own creatures, so, but like, how many don't let you do that?
- 40:20It's like a lightd out thing. Yeah, true, but I like
- 40:23the ability to. I mean again, we don't know. This is only
- 40:28what like eighteen cards let's see far there haven't been a ton of fish cards
- 40:35with play effects bubbles being one of them. Yeah, yeah, but this
- 40:40is only twenty one cards out of who knows, I mean, yeah,
- 40:44what's an average. Lots to be seen here, but it's definitely better than
- 40:50fear right, Nobody liked fear so this definitely doesn't matter. Um, so
- 40:55hopefully it is a PIP and it's not. Yeah, without a p this
- 41:00is gonna be a a little bit of a sad card to see. I
- 41:05don't know it's gonna be as sad as you think. There's definitely worse thus
- 41:09far. I mean yeah, yeah, not not necessarily known in the fishhouse
- 41:14yet, but yeah, I don't know, it's it'll be you could you
- 41:20could get another proton siphon. Well, if proton syphen has a PIP and
- 41:24this doesn't, I might be okay with that. Does proton siphon become better
- 41:29than this card if it has a pip. This without a pip, so
- 41:32Tendril's Tendril's no pip, Proton gets a pip. I kind of like the
- 41:39pip, and then I would just like them in your hand like crazy.
- 41:45Nope, I would take I would take hand rolls. I will win the
- 41:52game and we'll see how they go. We also, you know, we
- 41:58don't know, there could be a lot of playoff x in unfamodable this uh,
- 42:02this set. That's possible though, like you know, we don't know
- 42:08what other creatures are out there that could be if you got bubbles. Yeah,
- 42:14yeah, I mean I'm not Bounce is always good because it lets you
- 42:17get your amber back on captured creatures and all kinds of stuff. So it's
- 42:22it's a fine card. It's just again sad to see that you took a
- 42:27card that was good and then added restrictions to it and made it less flexible.
- 42:34Like it's just it's just like a downgrade versus all the other Bounce cards.
- 42:37To me, that is irritating. It'srustrating. Yes, yeah, I
- 42:40can understand, because it is us. It is frustrating to see like,
- 42:45oh, here's this good card and then you just went like, well,
- 42:47now if you have this super specific thing, you can do what it did
- 42:51normally the one from last set where it's bounced one, or have the Tide
- 42:54bounced four. It's very easy to get the Tide to bounce far. Like
- 43:00that card is good? This card? What if? What I mean we
- 43:07could have made this card better? Right? It could have been return of
- 43:09creatures to its owner's hand. If if you're oh, and it's if it's
- 43:15controller is haunted. So your opponent has to be haunted three of their creatures.
- 43:21Right, If I want to bounce three of their creatures, they need
- 43:22to be haunted. Oh that's a little You want to bounce three of your
- 43:25creatures, you have to be hunted, right, But what if if it's
- 43:29controller is haunted, bounce all their creatures. I'm just thinking here, like
- 43:35we already a lot of us are not a big fan of the Tide because
- 43:38like the effects of the Tide cards were not strong enough for having to deal
- 43:45with the Tide, right, And when we're looking at the effects of these
- 43:50haunted cards again, I don't know if the effects are strong enough for them
- 43:55to be situational time right or where they have a requirement, and it's not
- 44:02like Tide was three chains and you could have it so you could always get
- 44:07it. Like they're just gonna you're you're not gonna have the choice. You
- 44:09can't just be like, well, I want to be haunted, so I
- 44:15discard five cards off top of my deck to get haunted. Right now,
- 44:19you don't have that choice. If you is not haunted, you are not
- 44:23haunted. Yeah sure, I mean like maybe, yeah, there's an artifact
- 44:28that says you always count as haunted and all kinds of stuff. But I'm
- 44:31saying, like these these cards are like Dark Tidings where it's like they're bad
- 44:37and then they become worse mediocre if you've or maybe good right once you've triggered
- 44:45this effect. At least in Dark Tidings, you could just make that effect
- 44:49happen here. You can't. So if you if you have a deck that
- 44:57is you know, like you're expecting thirty six cards, ten of them say
- 45:00haunted on them, right, and you get eight of them and you're starting
- 45:07a couple of draws like you're gonna be way behind in the game. It
- 45:13has a huge impact on the game. It's just out of our control.
- 45:17So I mean this is early. They can listen. I like the haunted
- 45:24thing, but like I think the effect I need to be stronger. We
- 45:32may hit haunted. You need to make the benefit a little heavier. Yeah,
- 45:37And and frankly they need to get rid of cards like Naro Gibbis with
- 45:42the Werewolf curse and Proton Siphon, like they're just pointless. So, as
- 45:46we were saying, we haven't seen pips, maybe a lot of these cards
- 45:51have native discard enhancements on them. Good right, I doubt it, but
- 45:57you know, like maybe there are lots of ways to you in this set
- 46:01to mess with your discard count more than we are seeing so far. Like
- 46:07we've seen there was one card you guys talked about the last time. It
- 46:09lets you put stuff back into your deck. He doesn't doesn't dredge. Dredge
- 46:20gives you cards back. Dredge the remainder of the turn. Yeah, so
- 46:24we've seen cards that get them back, and we know that purple discard thing
- 46:30is yeah, archive too, if you're haunted, is something that's in them,
- 46:37is something exists, So hopefully there's enough that you really have discard manipulation
- 46:43and it's easier to get haunted than I think it is. And that's what
- 46:49we've seen. You got plenty of discard fodder. Yeah yeah, it just
- 46:54discard naral give us. This is key forge, like you get to cycle,
- 47:00so everything can be discarded. And it's not the end of the game.
- 47:02Wow. True, its furnace ban in furnace, ban in furnace.
- 47:10All right, let's go to War of the World. This is a Mars
- 47:14action card play destroy all non Mars creatures deals to deal too damage to each
- 47:20Mars creature. That's that's that's a majority of your Mars creature is dead.
- 47:24Isn't not well your pictures? Yeah, and it depends if you're talking Coda
- 47:31in a way or if you're actually talking whoa a lot of threes. There's
- 47:36a lot of threes and Mars traditionally there are a lot of twos. Like
- 47:39Mars actually feels like they have a pretty good bread of creature power. Um.
- 47:46But this, Yeah, this card will get situationally much stronger in decks
- 47:51that have larger Mars boards. Yeah, it will kill the one we've seen,
- 47:58Zilo Zilo fricks doctor as Yeah, exactly. Yeah, he dies.
- 48:05You don't even get a chance three. Yeah, board clear, no chains
- 48:09uh, and some of my Mars dudes might live. That seems pretty good.
- 48:15The time this card is bad is when your opponent is kicking your face
- 48:19in with Mars. That's true. Yeah, that's that's when this card is
- 48:22bad. The rest of the time, like, this is generally better than
- 48:28Gateway, so we're we should be pretty happy with this one. So what
- 48:32all right? So if they're kicking your face in, remember some of the
- 48:37some of the stronger sets too that we are seeing played a lot. Mm
- 48:43World's Collide. Yeah, no Mars anyways, and there's no Mars in there,
- 48:47so like this card just kicks them in the teeth, and I guess
- 48:52we have to wait and see for I mean, obviously Mars is gonna be
- 48:55pretty strong a wall, but we don't really know how that's going to shake
- 48:59out, like Mars and Woe. So it's gonna be my favorite thing to
- 49:02play. Yeah, it's gonna destroy all the tokens except for Grunt, including
- 49:07the best token in the game Blurb right, yeah, Blur best the best
- 49:13one. I still have an open up blurb dock guys. Yeah, I
- 49:16have my Savior of key for yep, you're fine, just another one of
- 49:27those gimmicks that's not going to pan out. Everybody is gonna be like,
- 49:30it's not good, but you're not one. But I'm gonna just keep playing
- 49:34it until Keys'll do it. Yeah, I don't die happy. Three keys
- 49:44to one to drop. Sorry, Actually, now you're just kicked out,
- 49:51so there's no drop after O two. It's just please leave. You can
- 49:55go to second number with the rest of the clubs. M mmmmtaz draz Now
- 50:02so you are cash Drazz yep. There is no more sealed in Vault Tours
- 50:08at least I guess there will be an event on Fridays. Yeah, and
- 50:15I will play it, but yeah, it's not yeah, not a main
- 50:21event, not the main event. All right, Well guys, that's gonna
- 50:28do it for all of our grimm reminders spoilers for right now. So I
- 50:31think in the next upcoming weeks we're gonna get super Vault Tour focused. We
- 50:37gotta get Sheep into fighting for him. Are you ready, Sheep? Yep?
- 50:42Um ready? All right? I know how to pack a bag and
- 50:45you hear him clicking. He is already logging on to well not t so
- 50:52you going tco with with what you got yep. Yeah, so he's already
- 50:59prepared. So nice short episode for this week. I think it's been a
- 51:02week for all of us getting getting the kids out of school. It's been
- 51:06quite h quite fun. So with that being said, what do you guys
- 51:10got for our final thoughts to wrap up? You know, maybe what we
- 51:15should do, Wookie, It just came to me so to actually think about
- 51:20this. Maybe we should record a Patreon episode about what else to do in
- 51:23Philly while while you're here for the vault. We could do that. Yeah,
- 51:29it might be fun. You are the local Philly expert. So there
- 51:31you go, there you go. You can see the ninety five collapse.
- 51:35You can see dass car will tell you all the best places to get beat
- 51:39up. Yep. Oh, and just remember it's either with whiz or without
- 51:45m just saying that's right, that's right, because a real Philly cheese steak
- 51:50has cheese whiz. Yeah that was not Um that that didn't make it a
- 51:59winner. You could doval most places, will ye provalons acceptable? Yeah,
- 52:04I heard that. I get I heard it's not real if it's not cheese
- 52:07whiz. I definitely when I was there for the last one, Um,
- 52:12I had it with the whizz and you need no whiz. You don't like
- 52:16the super salty process. It's not even cheese really, it's just a bunch
- 52:21of oil cheese food product cheese food. Yes, orange dretchable oil is not
- 52:25needed for me? All right, well, fair enough, but yeah,
- 52:30we could do an episode with that, so join the patreon. Not only
- 52:32that, not only could you hear draft Car talk about all the fun stuff
- 52:36to do in uh in Philly. You can sign up for the drafts Car
- 52:39experience over on our patreon and uh and that's not a not a thing but
- 52:45okay, it was like I already have too many people, not yet,
- 52:52not yet it is, but but yeah, we'll go from there. What
- 52:58do we got for a final thoughts? Shape? We are still playing key
- 53:04Forge regularly here through the discord and on TCL, so you can find us
- 53:09Tuesdays with Hiram Graph, Wednesdays with Local Car, and Sundays with me.
- 53:15So we still like to play lots of key Forge, so come join us.
- 53:21Yeah, I will say that to Tuesday. Last few Tuesdays with Hiremagraph
- 53:25has been on TTS tabletop simulator, played well and it was pretty fun and
- 53:31the the plug in he's been using makes it super easy to load up decks.
- 53:37Which was the main thing that was preventing me from um playing on TTS
- 53:44before was it was just such a page to create a deck. But now
- 53:46there's a whole thing. You just throw the url for the master vault in
- 53:51there and creates the deck for you. You just rock and roll. So
- 53:53it's pretty good. Pretty good? What do you guy for final thoughts?
- 53:57Drafts? Since you're already going, Oh uh, I hear a rumor that
