Live Commentary on Magic: The Gathering Modern Gameplay
We also make videos with insightful commentary on Magic: The Gathering as a whole and analyze the Modern format through our series Monologues of a Scoundrel.
The Regional Championship video should be out sometime next week. I've needed time to study for my insurance license test so this has been somewhat been put on the back burner. The corresponding article will come out on the same day over at www.grovewarden.games/
Also, just a reminder that you can get 10% off your card order on their site by using code mtgscoundrels at checkout. They also sell our channel shirts which to quote my wife, "Are shockingly comfortable." lol so please check them out too.
Thanks again for being great, content will be on the way, just have to situate my real job situation first and foremost.
The RC review video is well underway. Should have that up sooner than later this week. I'm kinda just waiting on if Frank Karsten is going to post the tournament results for the Australian Spotlight Series because I think there is some pretty telling information from those results. This is especially true after "Rakdos Midrange" or "Rakdos Agro" decks have taken the format by storm the past couple of weekends. So getting that data in would be excellent.
The format has adapted to Broodscale being the top dog and looks to be in a pretty healthy place.
Let me know what changes in the format have peaked your interest the past few weeks!
Video will be out tomorrow morning. With applying for jobs and unpacking time kind of just slipped away from me. Appreciate you all as always and I look forward to seeing you all in the comments.
Considering how Broodscale has somewhat taken over the format I really thought we'd see some changes. I guess control decks taking down the LA Regional Championship and the rise of Domain Zoo is pushing them to think we may not need changes yet.
What do you think should or shouldn't get the axe? Let me know in the comments!
The move has gone well. Unpacking has been a bit of a chore and figuring out which room of my place is best for sound quality has been...interesting. This week's video is being pushed to next Monday.
I appreciate all of you and I'll see you all next week. I am also working on the post Modern Regional Championships video being that LA's RC is this weekend.
I have finished moving across the country. Monday's video may be delayed a bit as we get the internet figured out. (The bummer of no longer living in a huge metropolitan area is that the internet speeds are....well you know)
Let me know if any of you have started brewing with Reality Fracture cards in Modern! I'm hoping to nab some stuff once card prices settle a tad.
MTGScoundrels is proud to announce our partnership with Grove Warden Games!
Grove Warden Games is now an official sponsor of MTGScoundrels. I’m excited to work with them and grateful for their support of the channel and the Modern community.
Check out my current State of Modern 2026 article on Grove Warden's website and corresponding video on the channel, and grab the MTGScoundrels x Grove Warden Games collaboration shirt!
This wasn't a surprise really. What do you think should be considered and what did you think of WOTC specifically pointing to Simic Neoform being a possible future problem?
Not only will we have videos going up on Mondays, we now will have videos going up on Thursdays! I have more time during the week now to get stuff done (fortunately and unfortunately) so we will have gameplay on Mondays and either more gameplay on Thursdays or a Monologue video. This week will be the week I get the format overview update published. So be on the lookout for that!
Also let me know how you guys feel about WOTC doing...Limited...for the top 8 of the MODERN Pro Tour. I don't like it, but I'm not sure if I should do a whole video on it. They have 3 other Standard Pro Tour level events they could have done it for and they chose the Modern one to try it. Pretty unfortunate.
Anyway thank you all for tuning in and we'll see you Thursday!
