• 1:44
  Speaker 6: sad as I was coming back from the soccer tournament. No.
• 1:47
  Speaker 6: Like yeah, because when no one else was there for
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: the finals, there was no one who was going ahead
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: and casting it all and just having it. Hearing the
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: two players speak in the back crown was not the
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: same as having someone there. So I appreciate you stepping
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: in and being able to talk. It provided a great
• 2:05
  Speaker 6: opportunity for those of us just listening.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean it was that or adaptive so we
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: see what won for Dresscore.
• 2:15

• 2:19
  Speaker 6: Actual finals ARCon match was just there was no one
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: commentating at all, and so for me, I was driving
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: back from Nina, so about an hour a half drive.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: What are you doing up there?
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: Last weekend?
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: We had it, well technically last weekend we had a
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: tournament in Minasha.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: The tournament the week before we had a tournament in Nina.

• 3:01
  Speaker 6: was looking forward to hearing the finals and it kind
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: of was a bit of a bummer to like you
• 3:07
  Speaker 6: could hear the players very, very slightly for the most part,
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: it was just static in the background from the where
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: it was so just some nice Landlaer mics that could
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: be put on the players would be awesome if no
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: one's going to commentate.
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: But again, Dres, when you commentated, I loved it. It
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: really added to.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Were you went on the closet. Why was it so dark?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: We were just out in the open. It was like
• 3:32

  Speaker 2: decided not to come, which uh, at least that's what
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: well Hobo said, the uh because a PV part I added,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: because the city wasn't there. They they Yeah, So there
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: was a number of a BR So there was a
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: bunch of a BR folks, and then there was a
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: there was like a small number of locals. There was
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: actually the Alvin from way Back Team Sas showing up
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: an he's a local yeah yeah, guy who did our logo.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, so which I had totally forgotten and I
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: actually didn't know who he was until like I was
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Hanneman the Dascourt business card thing and he's like, oh yeah,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I did this logo. I was like wait a second.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I was like oh you're Alvin. Oh so cool to
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: chat with him. So but yeah, so wished wished, we
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: we we saw some more folks, but.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: I mean you were only two people short pretty much
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: in each event, right, so I mean looking at some
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: of the people who were actually none of the people
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: that one of them actually I'm sorry, well two was
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: who did the judging this time around, so it was
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: both g and Marcus was okay because Marcus played last time.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: This time Joe, Liquid Squash, Magic, Flightless, Pheasant, Dave C
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: and Dev Dev which I heard none of those names
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: out of anywhere, any anything anywhere.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Well, Hobo was there, Flightless was there? Okay, yeah, so
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: so yeah, there was a couple of Michigan folks there,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I guess, but uh but but yeah, just Hobo and
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Girlami were there from from reap Out. But but yeah,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: then we we uh they hand us our dax and
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: if you signed up early enough, you got your your print,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: nice little art piece print, which was kind of cool.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: And apparently I was the very first person to sign
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: up because I got art print number one, one of fifty,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: which was kind of cool. Actually, I was like, oh,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: they're like numbered. Is that how they handed them out
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: depending on which how you signed up. Yeah, the order
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: you signed up, so they left your ticket and they
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: flipped through and hand it out. Yeah so so yeah,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: I guess if you want one of fifty, you gotta
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: go and sign up early. Guys, sign up quick, Yeah yep.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: So yeah. The whole reason I signed up so early
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: is because when it was announced I saw like a
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: ridiculously cheap flight and just jumped on it and then
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: bought the ticket. Uh so yeah, that was pre pre
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: everything that's going on in the Middle East, So right,
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: gas prices were a lot lower, the tick price. Ticket
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: price was pretty good.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: So looking at what we got here, it looks like
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: Shadows was very popular, extraordinarily popular.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: In fact, it is.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: And we don't know Goltmann's deck that's in here, but
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Shadows is in every single top eight deck for sealed.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: Uh Mars has got a couple out of there, under
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Athomable has about half the field, or Boros has three.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, obros I keep saying that Wrong has three
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: and Unfathomable has three. Really the only outlier we have
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: there is Skyborne. Well only one Skyborn must it must
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: have an online rotation. Well, now there's no red rd
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: in rotation in DM oh there is sorry, what is it?
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Against all flag? Against all flags? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, so
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: if you have a whole bunch of those, then uh
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: they're actually In fact, I could definitely tell you there
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: was a bunch of against all flags being played because
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: on stream I took it definitely. Well, yeah, like I
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: was like, play a bunch of cards made some member
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: against all flags as ship all right, playing a bunch
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: of cards like made or two ever against it just
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: kept hitting me with it and I lost nice. So yeah,
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: my sealed decks were not good. So what are you
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: noticing in your sealed decks? I've had an opportunity. Now
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: I've got a couple on my belt. What are you
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: noticing in your sealed decks? Well, I want equadon that's
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: one thing, because like, okay, they have some of the
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: best commons, they have.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: Some of the best Well, there's one big thing I've
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: noticed in all the decks that have done well that
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: I was able to see, at least, especially the winner
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: m they all have more actions than creatures, which is
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: obviously something you want.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yeh, because actions are creatures.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: They move faster than creatures, right, Literally, the winning deck
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: has four creatures. Unfortunately, one's a Grammy trap Grammy taps
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: but whatever Victor Flux is I think.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: In shadows in shadows yeah, not the whole Okay, okay.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there's got four creatures. Mars has the
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: most creatures at like half six one, two, three, four, yep,
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: six Fortunately for them, one of them is Emperor Memorrocks.
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, so two of those you're looking at
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: Nysick's the Resonator Memorrocks. You have Collector Worm to throw
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: some more in archives with Memory and the Artifact all
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: are Mars ready and use a friendly creature. So the
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: kaboom that's there too for the wipe, like, yeah, this.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Is and then there are also six creatures in the
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Geistouit House. So I said this this week, I don't think.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm right or not. This seems
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: to be so creature heavy at least set, the set
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: and commons seem to be creatures, which is obviously what
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: you're going to get the most of. So, I mean,
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: I got two decks this week and our local sealed
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: one had nine actions, one had ten, and guess what
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: I lost?
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Every game you.
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Need to sacrifice more decks to the AOA gods.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: I mean at this point I it was rough. It
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: was rough AOA sacrificing AOA to get better? How do
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: I properly sacrifice an AOA deck?
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, I just go right to the trash.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Can Oh you do shredder, that's the shredder is better?
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: But you know.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: You don't.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Shredder is better? All right, chat ept do your thing. Yeah,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: I'm just noting. That's all. I've noticed that you want
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: a lot of actions. Yeah, make a big difference.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: This is so played.
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: Wednesday was sealed, and I you know, it's a it
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: was mostly a junk deck, but it had functionally three
• 21:12
  Speaker 7: board wipes in it, so that that helps exerce because
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: it's like they said, are all their creatures right? And
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: then you go, okay, I just killed them all and
• 21:22
  Speaker 7: set out my creatures. And if they can't come back
• 21:24
  Speaker 7: and boardwipe, now, you know, without the board wipes, you
• 21:28
  Speaker 7: don't have that ability to come back from them.
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: Boarding first, what were your what were your board wipes?
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: Were you looking at kaboom or were you looking.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: At I had in that one?
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: I don't know, okay, and I I had kaboom.
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: I had the one that destroys all exhausted creatures. Okay,
• 21:50
  Speaker 7: that was you know, that's that's a really strong card
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: in a d M in general.
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: The reason the reason I ask is kaboom with the
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: chains slows down the game even further. And so that
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: is but that's something we used to see long ago
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: in FFG days, whereas a lot of the situational wipes
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: or wipes have kind of gone away from chains. But
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: I have noticed Kaboom's real good. But it does definitely
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: slow you down.
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, because that was also catching release, so I was
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: certainly buried in chains at certain points, but yeah, it
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: was in an orbitable bardment. But then the big move
• 22:30
  Speaker 7: for that deck was Body Snatcher's kaboom. It's like, oh,
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: you just played a bunch of big dragons, Well I
• 22:36
  Speaker 7: got dragons too. How about Ida kaboom?
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah that was pretty okay.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: That's That's all I'm noticing, is that, like you want
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: as many actions as you possibly can. Yeah, yeah, that's
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: where the amber thing all right, So typically, I mean, yeah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Row surprised by was the number of folks actually playing
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Obero's in Sealed at Portland. You know, there was a
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: lot of mediocre dragons on the board now, A lot
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: of dragons, yeah, a lot of sleepy dragons. Now. There
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: was like there are people were leaning into decks with
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Snapper Din, which especially can do a lot. I can
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: do can do a lot. So I I snapper didn't
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: might actually be better than I originally thought, like that
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: card can can definitely create problems for you.
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: I was like this game as I was at nine
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: Amber and my opponent put down three Snapper Dins, Oh gosh,
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: I'm like seven creatures wide, and I'm like, oh boy.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So that was, uh, that was definitely a
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: thing I saw a lot of. But uh yeah, yeah,
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: I was trying. So I actually even though I didn't
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: do that great. I my decks were fun, even though
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: I wasn't winning, Like I had stuff I was trying
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: to do. It was not like great stuff, but you know,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: you gotta get gotta get yanky when you don't have
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: good stuff. So I had a what's that Johannery or
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: whatever that card is that from? Uh, So I had
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: that guy, and I also had the holographic Banshee, and
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: I had some uh like a bunch of capture and
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: so I just kept trying to uh two get uh
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: you know, get mber on my guys and then out
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: of house, you know, reap with my geistoid and take
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: all that Ember on them. But like the deck wasn't
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: that great. I had one TMTP not and then I
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: had triple Nightmare Urchin. I literally never reaped once with
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Nightmare Urchin, like because it's so bad and people just
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: kill them so easily a nightmare. Yeah yeah, but like the.
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: Problem though they have to kill it it.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Is, but it's so easy to do. Like I tried,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: but I just never could reap with them. I mean
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: maybe I did once, but like I don't think I
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: ever reaped. I definitely never was able to reap when
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: I was overwhelmed.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: But what's what's crazy is it's it's not elusive, like
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: it has none of those tactics where at least, at
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: least back in the day, like some of those creatures
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: that were like pretty good, Like you don't never get
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: a reap off, but at least it was a two
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: for one, right something. They got to either figure out
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: a way to deal damage to it or they got
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: to attack it twice, right, And I had waste to
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: reap where you just don't have that with Nightmare Urchin.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the other problem I had so I had triple
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: haunting measures, which so okay because it's got lots of efficiency,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: but you're discarding cards off the top of your deck
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: and then taking a non guy started card in your hand,
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: so they knew. When I took my TMTP, they knew,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: and I would take my catch and release so like
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: they would just like play around it, and uh, I
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: was like, those are the two good cards of my deck,
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: and well, so it yeah, I don't know, but I
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: I did have a lot of fun, so I did not.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: I just kept playing. I did not join the side
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: event and which was I guess quick Forge the first Yeah, yep,
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: so but it was fun. It was fun. Sealed is
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: always fun, so did did some sealed action all right. Now.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: The next day was ARCon, so I did put the
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: ARCon deck lists in our sheet, and I will let
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: me post that link for the audience here and.
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: While you're doing that, Nightmare Urchin, for those who may
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: not be familiar, because I think a lot of people
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: are playing Dragons because it's new and people are still
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: learning the same.
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: So tweople are choosing to play or oh bor us
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: just because they're.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Like, oh, I want to play with the new Dragons.
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: Correct, but with the Nightmare Urchin, you're talking a Shadows
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: Creature two power elf thief after reap.
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: If you are overwhelmed, steal too. Otherwise steal one.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so so I'm posted the top ARCon now. Now,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: the interesting thing with ARCon was that there was not
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: that many uh well, I mean there was a bunch
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: of TV, but not as much as I expected in
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: talking with in the top eight, right, But there was
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: relatively few TV in the field compared to what you
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: would expect. But it wasn't because at least a lot
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: of the folks I talked to. It wasn't because they
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: thought that the deck they brought was like, way better
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: than a PV deck. But I talked with a bunch
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: of folks who were like, yeah, I just wanted to
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: bring the deck that I thought was the best that
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: wasn't PV.
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, people, they weren't having fun playing it and they
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: wanted to play something different.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Yep, which is honestly what I did. I did not
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: bring TV. So what did you end up bringing? I
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: brought aria. I need to bring something else. Some point
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: that's partly what I was thinking. But yeah, my games
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: were weird, Like I had super swingy games except for
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: I had won like close close match, but like I
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: would either like I literally one game, I literally drew
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: U like six cards in a hand and all I
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: had all four in here somewheres, and like that game,
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I just like steamrolled the guy. And then the next game,
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: I just like couldn't get out of to to too
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: no matter what I did, and uh, like I got steamrolled.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: I was like it was there was another game where
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: I just drew all like I double in here somewhere
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: all my mars went went over all my all my
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: Mars creatures. So I and I had wins, so I
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: wins them and I just totally you know, made a
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: million number off. So it was like it was totally
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: like flip flopping between amazing draws and terrible draws. It was.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: It was a really weird, really weird time for for me.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: So unfortunately didn't didn't quite get there, but but we did.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Both x Ray and Mammon made top eight, so so
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: their decks are are in here, which is pretty cool. Actually,
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: they both they both got the top eight for both
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: sealed and for uh was Olympio. Was Mammon doing Olympia? No,
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I was Mammon. Mammon was on the Olympio. Oh, by
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: the way, footnote we should mention meanwhile, while we were
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: playing all these rounds of of Arkhan, all five Alliance
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: players did their entire tournament there. There was literally five.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Now how did that go? Well, you know everybody who
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: entered in it got They're all top. They're all top,
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: right yeah yeah, yeah, Like it was the point where
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: I was like, should I just.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Like, I'm here to play Alliance, Yeah, just give me
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: my my GENA tag decks on my playbat.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It was weird, so and I will.
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: I will give go ahead.
• 31:03
  Speaker 7: V twenty six looks to be that it might it
• 31:05
  Speaker 7: might justify just button in for three free decks.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Well, so there was a VM twenty six that was
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: opened that morning that made top eight in ARCon in
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: ar Gun. Yeah. Yeah. So that sub deck name is
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: while you while you grab the Dusty vault Master. Yeah. Good.
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: So I'll say just before we bounce from Alliance, uh
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: shut out to the two winners, so winner being Bear
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: Bear or Robot Rob three and then Mazi being the
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: runner up TV and the neighbors skies for the alliance,
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: so qualifying.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that also congrants the Logan Composer X ray.
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, because they went ahead and Logan Composer taking the
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: winner for sealed eventually in the next ray taking second.
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: So great truck. Guess I think that.
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: Frenzy AJ going ahead and playing the VM twenty six
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: and making top eights right away with VM twenty six
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: says a lot and that that deck has some spice
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: this deck.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: So so we'll walk a little bit through this deck.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: So VM twenty six jam o, you're gonna love this right.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: So it's got lots lots of highlights. So okay, so
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: you got double drumble, okay, but hey, if they're not
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: if they're not at seven so you can't use your drumbles,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: don't worry. You got neon fringe to to knock them down.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: You got double in furnace, you got double rock grub,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: and so you have lots of lots of uh, lots
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: of ember control there. So eventually, yep, they're gonna get
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: to uh, they're gonna get that. You're gonna get that
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: drumble down, right, and then you go into Sarian and
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: you play your double e epic poem, you know, just
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: to make a million a million ember this is exile, yeah,
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: with an imperial forge, so you double imperial right, or
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: or you just like you know, you wait to turn
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: kill it. You t m T P it right like
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: it's got double banded culver, double bon nitting. It's got
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: brend the fanatic with life for life. It's got a
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: borrow borrow, yes, yeah, yep. You also have harvest time
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: to purge stuff. You know, you've got a here, You've
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: got your citizens tricks with a shadows pip, you got
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: a loot o right, so you can just burn this
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: enver when you do the unlocked gateway like it's this
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: this is uh, this is for real right, So I
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: guess it's a little low on C. So I guess
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: if you get real behind on board, you could you
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: could get in trouble. But this deck is is pretty spicy,
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: pretty spicy.
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so is that good for us? Boys? What are
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: we seeing? Is this is going to go ahead in
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: Skyrocket VM twenty six sales?
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Well? I think so because I said, this deck right
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: here is a DRAS scorer one thirty one, and that
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: is higher than any DM deck dras scored at all
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: so far. Yeah. In fact, there's quite a few v
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: twenty six that are higher than higher than the DM
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: deck so far. Yep.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: You know that there's some real spice in the side.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I mean, you gotta get a Vault tour
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: in Canada their GM you're figuring out.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: I don't have to tell you. He was like falling
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: off his rocker, just like you know, yell it at
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: you know, the sky marking head clouds. Yep, yep. He
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: was like, get off my lawn, right.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but really weird, uh, really weird. Like you got
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: three PV decks, two GR decks, one ember Sky's deck,
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: a vault Master twenty five, and a vault Master twenty six.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: It was twenty five right now, this is a twenty five. Yeah,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: one's a twenty five yep, yep in battles of twenty five.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: So an actual nice spread, right Yeah. I wonder if
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: people were like, well I'm just not going to play
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: PV because we feel it's hurting the game would have
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: affected that.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: I think there was a bunch of that. I do
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: you think there was a bunch of that? Yeah, So.
• 35:46
  Speaker 7: I just yeah, like me could get together and self
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: banned TV just because we're all decent people. But then
• 35:53

• 37:40
  Speaker 3: it out to be, but it's a thing. I'm really
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: not sure what makes us. I'm trying to look at
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: it and what makes a tick.
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: A lot of card makes a lot of amber.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: It does draw a lot of cards. It does have
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: what twenty two expected amber, So it's a little high. Yeah,
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: so it does do just exactly that. Draws a lot
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: of cards, makes a lot to amber. And then let's see,
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: so you got one of those? You got at least two.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: I thought I saw two.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: G R decks.
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: Oh no, here we go, just right here, amber Sky
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: or p v ember Sky's g R A O and
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: JR so two g R one p V one ember
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: Sky is one A O A donuts. Dad's at it again,
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: trying to make aoa work with a with a weird
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: uh battle fleet key abduction Mars type deal in a
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: O A generosity Yeah, nope, no MG in here. No
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: there is an MG I'm sorry, I miss there is
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: a battle fleet. Yeah, and uh yeah.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: What do you call it?
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Uh legacy battle fleet. So all he's doing stings, got it,
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: he's got doubles, he's trying. He's trying. He's trying to
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: Heart of the Forest with the sting. Got it. That
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: makes sense. Only good enough for fourth though, So but
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, he got ten ducks, so screw it.
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Did he get a win or to get it?
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Bye doesn't say in here, It just it just shows
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: the placings. So I guess it's around winning, Mazzi running
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: up Thidium taking third, down Donuts Dad taking fourth, Willie
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: the Kid taking fifth.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: So they were.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: Done and then what I guess you just get to
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: move on to doing other things then, right, just side events.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: A sealed adaptive, So.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: So congrats to every side event beating Alliance. Literally every
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: side event beat Alliance, so adaptive, you're still number three
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: in your own event, So congrats.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Quick at fourteen.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Quick Forge had fourteen, and the draft pods had uh
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: total of thirty two four pods of eight yep, because
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: you got to do those in the in the eight
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: eight pods of eight. So now there was an advantage
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: for the draft. Yeah, there was advantage for draft in
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: terms of being on Sunday. But but perhaps it's hard
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: to know, but perhaps being quick forge were sealed. Perhaps
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: that is a more interesting comparison.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: Still, fourteen players still more than an adaptive Nope, well so,
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: but I still think, yeah, sealed sealed ARCon. I think
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: that's the way we should run things. We should do
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: some alliance then but then three three deck pick one
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: sealed or sealed art coon and then regular arn con
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: true seal. Yeah, and then and.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Then the sheep will tell me why I'm wrong. Well,
• 41:12

  Speaker 5: People are interested.
• 44:23
  Speaker 6: You strike while the iron is hot, and you allow

  Speaker 6: it to be four per day because Drascore had a
• 44:29
  Speaker 6: great idea, and yes, you can send that check to

  Speaker 6: Arkhan's corner. As you go ahead and have triplicate for
• 44:36
  Speaker 6: your sales.

  Speaker 4: Somebody else can buy my four there you go.
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: So, uh yeah, I showed some Yeah the U shows
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: that was doctor Sheep. Uh the so what they so
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: they were selling VM off you know, those flying off
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: the shelves. What wasn't flying off the shelves because it
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: wasn't advertised anywhere and you had to like, remember, wait,
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: isn't there supposed to be like a play mat for
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: this year or something? Yeah, and some if you asked
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: for it, they would like rubberg around and find it
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: and sell you one. But like at the end of Sunday,
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: I was playing with my twenty six VM Matt and
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: the guy was like, what's that? Where'd you get that?
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: I was like, this is the Vault our playmat. And
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: then Josh metch Cleve He's like, oh, we only sold
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: six play bats. I'm like, because nobody knew you could
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: buy one. Wasn't displayed anywhere, was it.
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: I will actually say I did see the play mats.
• 45:32
  Speaker 6: I think the play mat looks kind of cool. I
• 45:35
  Speaker 6: like the extended art from that leads well, like that
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: that is that's your choice. I think it's a I
• 45:43
  Speaker 6: think it's a nice extension. I showed it, and my
• 45:46
  Speaker 6: youngest daughter really really liked it. So if it's not
• 45:50
  Speaker 6: for you, it's not for you. But I actually thought
• 45:52
  Speaker 6: it was well done and I'll probably pick be picking
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: one up in Saint Louis.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the locations on them now, now the card it's
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: like the grinder Storm was a shitty card, but like,
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it looks kind of cool. The uh so, yeah,
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: so that that was the weirdness with the sales. Oh
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: and then the the so the play mats for the
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: the actual tournament winners, like we're looking at them, you know,
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: and it's like a bunch of it's like normal expected stuff, right.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: The top eight is like some random weird art with
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: like a whole bunch of guys on it. Not actually
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: eight guys, but like close to eight, right, Like like
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: I had the what was that goofy Mars card where
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: you like destroy a flank and flip cards and whatever,
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: and there's like seven Mars guys on it. So that
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: was the top eight one, right, and then uh, top
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: top four was like the art from Discovery or whatever.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Second player runner up was like the the Brodner Leaping
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: Chick whatever, now returning Champion, returning Champion. Yeah maybe no, no, no.
• 47:11
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to think about I'm trying to with you.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: It's the one deal deal wanted deal to damage and
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: then exalt each damage creature whatever whatever that one's called. Okay,
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: So then the Champion Matt, Like, I'm there, I'm standing
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: next to Mammon. We're looking at the Champion Matt and
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: we're like, is this art even from KeyForge? Oh boy?
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: Maamon's like did they like go through like the FFG
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: art archives and like like just look for cool art.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: It's like, oh, here's something and slap it on and
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: we're like, what even is this? Turns out it was
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: a rare Evil Twin uh like Uriel or something like.
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: I actually found out like even we had never even
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: draz scored it that card. I was like, oh gosh,
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: I don't think I own one. Uh So yeah, it's
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: just weird. It's like weird. The Evil Twin was the
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: was the card.
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: So you want to give us a play by play
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: off x Ray stomping little children and Pokemon for some
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: random reason.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah. So like x Ray after after his uh
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: you know, his loss, he's like, I'm gonna go play Pokemon.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: So he goes joins the Pokemon tournament that the store
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: is hosting, and uh yeah, he's all excited because you
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: went three and oh beat up on some some little

  Speaker 2: kids and uh it yeah he was, Uh it's good
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: for good for x Ray. He got some some packs
• 49:09

• 49:18
  Speaker 2: Urso Evil, Twin Dinosaur play Fight Stunnach Creature five Power
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: one Armor. It's a sorry in card. So that is
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: the art, uh, which it is kind of cool. It's
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: like like this guy swinging a big warhammer or something.
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It does look kind of cool, but
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: super weird. Random Pole.
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: I'm still scanning for your Brodnar card.
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: They were going to the deep cuts. She is it's
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: the same one that's on It's on one of the articles.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: It's it's a crucial.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's on it's on one of the articles. I
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: think it was on the vault to our announcement article. Yeah,
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: let me see here, let me see here. I'm going
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: to go in and I'm going to find it. Yes,
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: while we're going out, we're going to find worthy adversaries.
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: She is the cover. I don't know, it doesn't tell
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: me what it is, but.
• 50:21
  Speaker 5: All right, well I'm going ahead and looking that.
• 50:23
  Speaker 6: Uh, what is there anything that we need to know
• 50:26
  Speaker 6: about for these Vault Master twenty six decks that makes
• 50:30
  Speaker 6: them even more special?
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah? So mixed in due to a what do they
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: call it in the article of inventory confluence issue or whatever,
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: which means I somebody screw. Yeah, yeah, they accidentally put
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: some KFC twenty six geotag decks randomly in the in
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: the lotso, uh, definitely dom fam got one and we
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: asked him what the future looked like and he said
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: that VM twenty six won every vault, which you know
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: that that was his hot take from the future, and
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: uh it was. Uh so I don't know. Actually, by
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: the way, where the Adversaries is the name of the card?
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: So I found it?
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: So which is for the Adversaries action play deal one
• 51:31
  Speaker 6: damage to two different enemy creatures, exalt each damaged creature.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: Yep. Yeah, so I guess them saying like in a
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: positive way, something weird that happened is like, actually, like
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: that's good for marketing. So hey, Jeremy, look at you.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Look at you, sir. You did it.
• 51:51
  Speaker 7: Golden tickets and we can turn them in for something
• 51:56
  Speaker 7: at KFC. Mm hmmm, probably because there's too many of them.
• 52:00
  Speaker 7: Willy Wonka yep, I gotta go there, tick it well, sure.
• 52:05
  Speaker 6: But again it'd be another reason to be able to
• 52:08
  Speaker 6: purchase outside of it being super hot and playable. Did
• 52:12
  Speaker 6: you also talk there is a little accolade that's actually
• 52:16
  Speaker 6: on the VM twenty six.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: Tecks, thank you, Yes, So there's a Treasure accolade that
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: is on the VM twenty six cards. And I think
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: like Marcus was like hinting and without really saying what
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: he was hinting at, and I was looking more closely
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: at the accolade, and the accolade it is. The colors
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: are red, white, and blue, so two hundred and fiftieth
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Mam and I were like, hmm, does that mean that
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: if you go to like Brazil, it'll be like some
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: green in there, like it will it be different colors
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: per country? But then we were like, well, what are
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: they gonna do? And Frank ants, but we still red, white,
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: and blue, maybe just a different order. So that's that's
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So we were hypothesizing that perhaps what
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: Marcus was hitting at was that the colors would be
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: different of the accolade depending on uh what country.
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: Let's go check out Vietnam Man.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: We got this, so yeah, yeah, totally. So these are
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: for and to be clear, this is not all the
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: twenty six cards is for the prize, right if you
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: if you right, your prized out. So I thought that
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: was cool. That was a cool, cool little thing that
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: they did, so very nice.
• 53:43
  Speaker 6: Going back to the side events. You did not play
• 53:45
  Speaker 6: in Quick Forge, correct?
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: No, I did not. I so I should have thought
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: more about what deck I would bring, and then I
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: realized don't really have a deck that would work, and
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: I was having fun playing sealed anyway, So bather.
• 54:01
  Speaker 5: Okay, And you did not play adaptive Sealed? Adaptive?
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: No, no, because I was still like, I wasn't even
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: though I had two losses at one point, I wasn't
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: mathematically eliminated.
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: And then did you did you play in the draft?
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: I did? I did play in the draft. Can you.
• 54:18
  Speaker 5: So I know that we were.
• 54:19
  Speaker 6: Like we had looked at it, how did it actually
• 54:22
  Speaker 6: play in person?
• 54:23
  Speaker 5: What'd you think of it?
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: Well, so it took forever to draft. I'll say that
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: the experience was it was engaging. Uh, you know, not
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: being a constructed format type guy, I definitely would not
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: want to do it all the time. The way they
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: did it with the packs and the house pips or
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: just the enhancement pips like where you got to pick
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: where they went was was kind of interesting. So, like
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: none of the car cards had pips already on them,
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: so it was curious that way.
• 55:03
  Speaker 5: I was on the sleeves that they.
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Were on the sleeve and it was so so I
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: came in second with my pod like I I did,
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: I like went hard on equed on with talent scout
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: that I put a capture pip on and then I
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: played I had triple like now and later. So I
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: just kept like playing them and bouncing them back to
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: my hand and playing them again, right and uh, a
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: bunch of hot bunks. And with the the car was
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: the car we talked about last time where it was
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: like you recapture two, discard a card and and move
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: one to your pool, like like I just kept doing
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: all that all that stuff on com yeah, yep, yep,
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: But but I had to kind of audible because uh
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: so the oh, there's two draft rounds and I was
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: drafting Mars, and I had like nine Mars cards that
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: I was mostly happy with, but I was like, I
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: got a snag one or two other key pieces. But
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: there was literally no Mars pods in the second round
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: of the draft, which I guess if I paid more attention,
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: I would have realized maybe that that was going to happen.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: So I had to like pull together a Skyborne house
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: that could work because people were just, uh, you.
• 56:32
  Speaker 5: Could have you could have taken the blank. Yeah, you
• 56:34
  Speaker 5: could have taken the blank. I could have, but the
• 56:37
  Speaker 5: Greek card didn't harsh penalty.
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so it was actually geisty. Now I'm thinking
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: more more carefully because I, yeah, it was geist dooid.
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: I had to like pull together a bunch of guys
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: doing cards in the second round because they kept getting
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: passed around to me.
• 56:51
  Speaker 6: So, and you're the card you were talking about in
• 56:54
  Speaker 6: ikey Ichy was uh excelled in yash, which is a
• 56:59
  Speaker 6: creature human merchant three power after reap capture two. You
• 57:02
  Speaker 6: may discard a card if you do move one from
• 57:04
  Speaker 6: excellent yash to your pool at uncommon.
• 57:07
  Speaker 7: So it was.
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: I had fun, would you do it? He would? I would?
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: I am not your your whole.
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: Vibe right now is I am not convinced you had
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: a ton of fun.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: I enjoyed so. So the final I played against the
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: guy who did like the He had skyboring where it
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: was just like move you had like your deck sheep,
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: where it's just like you just keep playing navigator and
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: you just keep moving to the flying and keep rules
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: fixing him and just like drawing our kind of a
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: ton of stuff. And then and he had like sand
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: in your eyes where you exhaust all your stuff, blow
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: up the whole board and draw like twelve cards. And
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: he just kept doing that stuff over and over. And yeah,
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: he he won by a lot. But perhaps next time,
• 58:05
  Speaker 2: perhaps I will comment on the Arcan final so that
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: people can have some good, good content.
• 58:15
  Speaker 6: I would say I was curious because of the first
• 58:17
  Speaker 6: time showing up for draft.
• 58:19
  Speaker 5: I'm still interested. I'd love to be able to actually
• 58:21
  Speaker 5: play it.
• 58:22
  Speaker 6: I will say that Marcus did post in our ac
• 58:27
  Speaker 6: Vault tour talk and it was interesting to see some
• 58:29
  Speaker 6: of the stats. So he said, the draft from Portland
• 58:32
  Speaker 6: was al DRACONI measure cards. It was approximately three hundred
• 58:35
  Speaker 6: decks to make enough draft supplies for up to thirty
• 58:38
  Speaker 6: six players. We had thirty players who played draft on Sunday.
• 58:43
  Speaker 6: It took about seven five hundred cards to go through
• 58:47
  Speaker 6: to get roughly five thousand cards that were usable for
• 58:50
  Speaker 6: the draft purposes. Like that's a that's a really really
• 58:54
  Speaker 6: large amount. That was to make sure that every single
• 58:57
  Speaker 6: player could choose every single house option times four, which
• 59:01
  Speaker 6: again is something you as an organizer, you'd have to
• 59:04
  Speaker 6: plan for so with you know, no duplicates, new duplication
• 59:09
  Speaker 6: of house choices. So I thought it was interesting, but
• 59:13
  Speaker 6: a lot of you got to a lot of prep work.
• 59:16
  Speaker 6: But I think once it's there, it'd be easy enough
• 59:18
  Speaker 6: to be able to run through.
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean. And it was clearly a labor of
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: love for for Marcus, Like kudos to him for putting
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: this together. Like, you know, I enjoyed it, and I'm
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: not I am not a constructed guy. So the fact
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: that I was engaged the whole time, enjoyed it, I
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: think says a lot for the format. And there was
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: definitely folks there who like that's more their thing than
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: it is my thing, and they definitely had quite a
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: bit of fun. So I think me saying it was
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: it was, you know, engaging in fun is like probably
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: a really big win.
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: So I will if if I had flushed, which is
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: you know, it's like a ninety nine probability, I'll be
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: flushed on Sunday.
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: On the toilet.
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: But yes, I will be doing draft. I am very
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: interested in draft. I I wish it was a thing
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 3: that was more feasible to do that outside of Vault tours, but.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: I doubt no.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: We've We've already established on this show many times. She
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: hates she hates everything. So never trust a man who
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: doesn't like pretzels. Hmmm, she'ld be on like pretzels.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: No, I don't like pretzels.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 2: What They're gross, They're just don't you remember they're just
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: designed to buy more beer. Why I dislike pretzels that Well,
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: that was your main gripe in the car, that's all
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: I remember. Like it's just a marketing point to get
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: you to buy more beer. People, big pretzel and the.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 3: Pretzels, those big soft pretzels with the cheese oh, I
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: like soft pretzels just fine. You don't like crunching? Do
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: you like the pretzels filled with peanut butter?
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 6: No? No, okay, I'm also not a fan of pretzels
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 6: and peanut butter, but I'm all about crunchy little pretzels.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: Both are good. There's definitely a Philly Do you like combos?
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 5: Back in the day, they were okay but not a
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 5: big thing.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: I haven't had combos and yeah, I don't know how long,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: but I lot them being pretty good.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 6: Speaking of food and drink, what did you do dress?
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 6: Did you have a dress or experience?
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: Hell? Yeah, so I mentioned h I mentioned Pacific Standard
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: and Rum Club already. Rum Club was amazing, but it
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: was so good by the way, everybody was loving their drinks.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: Like I think best drink I had all weekend was
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: at Rum Club, so so good. It was cool. We
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: sat outside, uh it was like he did, so it
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: was okay, and that was delicious Scotch Lodge. We wait.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: We had to wait, like, I don't know, forty five
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: minutes for a table, but we did because we were
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: thirsty and we were reviewing, like talking about all the
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: top eight and whatnot. As we were doing that. But
• 1:02:20

• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: is that we're going to hurt some people. And it's
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 3: like who's car taking years or mine?
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah? So so Scotch Lodge was awesome. We was also
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: Loyal Legion was a beer bar we went to that,
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: got burgers there.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 5: What day was uh, Scotch Lodge and Loyal.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: I think it was the Saturday. So first we went
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: to dinner at the beer bar, got some burgers Loyal
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: Legion is this.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 6: Is this why some of our teammates did not make
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 6: it in until much much later in the morning.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 5: And then Uh, okay.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: I mean we were we were drinking at Portland. I
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: don't shut down it like it was a little all
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: over the place. So I think the Scotch Lodge was closing.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: It is there no bar time in Portland?
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: You know what it felt like? Honestly, it felt like
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: one of these I don't know if this is true.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: I didn't look this up. I know there's certain cities
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: where depending on how later you're open, your license is
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: an escalating costs, so fewer and fewer bars open like
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: late it.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: Well, so like that some places don't have like a
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: bar closed time, sure like they're they're open.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: So we were pretty much around the clock. Is yeah,
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: we were there for last call I believe at Scotch
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: Lodge and uh and that yeah, and then uh, let's see. Yeah.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: So then on Sunday, because we didn't fly out till
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: Monday morning early of course, so we had to wake
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: up at like four thirty in the morning to get
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: our flight. But that didn't stop us from drinking late
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: on Sunday. So we want to uh uh Hail Pail,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: which is Haley Pay. I don't know how pronouns it,
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: but it's a tiki bar. You out there, Oh I
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: love teky session. Yeah, so the vibe was really cool.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: The drinks were only okay unfortunately at h at the place,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: but I did score a cool tiki mug and uh,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: you know, had had a lot of fun there, some
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: some some good vibes and uh so that was uh,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: that was fun. And then we uh we walked to
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: Voodoo Donut.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: And I'm totally that I've always wanted to go there.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 3: It was really good. It was really good donuts and
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: they all.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: They all looked delicious. Yeah, and then uh, you know,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: they ordered the Uber and like, once again, like I
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: should have just started walking because once again, the Uber
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: driver is like twenty minutes, Like I'm stuck behind a train.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: It's like, what the hell is going? Like, what is
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: up with these ubers and trains in freaking Portland? So
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 2: uh so finally I just start walking and uh so
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: like walking by myself, which is maybe a bad idea,
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but Marcus, Marcus was like, I'll come
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: with you. So so we ended up walking, uh walking
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: back to the hotel. They did beat us this time,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: but not by that much. Did you wait to Marcus
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: too or was he able to keep up? Uh so
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: I did, uh slow down a bit. Plus plus I
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: wasn't quite as as hammered on Sunday night, and and
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: you know we had the yeah, we had the doughnuts
• 1:08:15

• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: all that sponge soaking it up. So I wasn't I
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: wasn't being quite as outrageous. But uh, you know, but
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: Marcus got long legs. You know, I'm like little mammon,
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: you know, screwing around.

• 1:15:08
  Speaker 3: because he said the sauce can't have chunks or vegetables
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: or meat. It's sauce, not gravy. And I've only ever
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: heard it called gravy when it has the sauce and
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: the meat and other things in there.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 3: I'm German through and through, so it's all sauce to me.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: But less it's spetzil. But that's not sauce. That's that's
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 3: a noodle. I guess are dumpling.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 3: I don't know what it is. My grandma used to
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: make it and it was great. Now I got to
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: go ask my wife to make it, and she always
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: gets angry at me every time I do m h.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 3: I guess it's really it's really a pain in the ass.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: But with that being said, I guess that's gonna wrap
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: us up for Portland Vault. I'm sure we'll get an
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 3: article out tomorrow. We're recording this on five twenty one,
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: and Gigi likes to release articles on Fridays, so I'm
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 3: sure there will be an article out tomorrow or maybe
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 3: next week Friday recapping Portland.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm actually I'm actually going to go ahead and
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 6: say that we need to have an article tomorrow because
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 6: we need to know what the side events are for
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 6: Saint Louis, which are two weeks.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: Out plan or if DM is going to be legal.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think it's going to matter. That's well,
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: I mean somebody will bring it, yeah, seal.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 6: But that's that's that's not what you're looking at, because
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 6: VM twenty six is legal right away.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 5: You're looking at.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, ione will.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 5: Bring it for for giggles. We've had people bring a
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 5: sealed day away to play.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 6: But.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: Sure, I think it's more for the score. DM is
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: only a one twenty nine, so that's because I haven't
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: quest any of mine in yet.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 6: There I think the big question is what are the
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 6: side events at this point, so it's something to look
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 6: forward to.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: What are sorry I'm assuming I assume.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's going to be the same thing. It's
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: going It's gonna probably just follow the same format.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 6: I don't think so if you have all the other options,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 6: I don't think it's going to be the same.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: Well rying forever, so it'll probably be. There'll be an
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: adaptive event in there somewhere.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it might.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 7: Go adaptive our gun instead of adaptive sealed.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: Mm hmmm yeah. But so some find out, we'll cry.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 3: But with that being said, we will see you all
