This Week in Magic
Wow, Tom + Jack + Marcel equals a huge week of magic news and some buttery smooth manly voices.

We have a few new Scars of Mirrodin previews from the Duel Decks: Elspeth vs Tezzeret (which for unknown reasons, Jack doesn't like) with Contagion Clasp and Kemba's Skyguard. The Clasp also shows a new keyword, Proliferate, that seems to be quite awesome. We have some details about 2010 State and Provincial championships on October 9th. For unknown reasons, PC World attacks magic players by choosing the Magic World Championships in it's top dorkiest tournaments and then shows a friggin' Yu-gi-oh card (was changed at the time of this recording). The second Duels of the Planeswalker expansion pack is coming and will be available on Steam on September 1. We also delve into thenewly announced "Event Decks" that will help you compete at your local FNM and will be available as of February 25th, 2010. A new "play or draw" rule will debut for the Top 8 at PT Amsterdam. GP Gothenburg was this past weekend, champion was Kenny Oberg and Conley Woods placed 9th! SCG Open was in Minneapolis the past weekend with Ken Adams winning the Legacy portion and Ian Ellis bringing home the Standard portion. The Great Designer Search 2 was officially announced to start on September 29th and also had a very cool fake logo for Homelands 2. Last, we have the link to the collection of Scars of Mirrodin art. 

What Have We Been Playing?
Tom is busy revamping his BG Ooze tribal deck to use those full art Mitotic Slime's and will be abusing Death Cloud happily. Jack asks for some help with a Dragonstorm deck and Marcel is playing Terran with a splash of Protoss.

Listener Emails
Jack says a big thank you to all of the listeners that emailed him with encouragement. Marcel answers some emails after his fantastic solo show. Link to the epic Justin Beiber slowed 800%. Link to the cheesiest movies of all time. And yes, that's the trailer for Ghost Shark 2: Urban Jaws.
