This Week in Magic
Wow, it is a fantastic (and mostly magic filled) episode with Tom, Jack and Marcel (starring his new headset).
Behold the amazing art on the M11 Game Day full art Mitotic Slime. Also, Heath from PureMTGO.com / MTGOTraders.com / CapeFearGames.com shares that you can now trade in paper MTG cards for digital MTGO cardswith a 20% bonus! TCGPlayer.com announces it's Championship Series at Wizard World Comic Con's with $10K events leading up to a $75K event at the Chicago Comic Con in 2011 for a whopping total of over $250K in prizes. A boatload of Nationals this weekend in Italy, Australia, France, Canada, Malaysia, Austria, Guatemala, Romania, Costa Rica and El Salvador. Congratulations to Tomoharu Saito for winning GP Columbus (Legacy). We also discuss the DQ of Drew Levin for "betting on himself" and also the "pieing" of Gerry Thompson by Patrick Chapin. G4 does a review of MTG Tactics with some nice screen shots and also some concerns.
