Speaker 2 (02:12):

(02:33):
sweet tub of s'mores w energy. Have you try that
one yet, I have not tried the smalllest one now
I'm still working through my other. It's listen, it's forty servings.
It takes a long time to get through forty servings.
You don't realize how many servings is in one tub
until you're like drinking it and you're like, this is

(02:53):
a lot. So, I mean it's nice, good clean energy,

might need it.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
Got to clothe yourself with ridiculous key Forge related paraphernalia.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yep, so and Arkon's Corner paraphernalia. I'm not gonna give
away any secrets just yet. Just know you might need some.
That's all I'm going to say. And then you can
join our Patreon We're now you.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Too, because we can steal your clothes.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah, because you too. Now it can figure out your
drazz scores kind of well do it. So we've kind
of we've taken a step back, right remember when we
had to do this for people back in the day. So, uh,
drascore will help you out to find your your best

(04:28):
drazz scores. What are you doing top fives over in
the Patreon channel.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Yeah, so if you go over, if you're Patreon member,
jump jump into the Patreon channel and you at me
and send me your dok handle. I will download your
deck list, I'll run it through the draz score tool,
and then I'll paste in the chat your top five PV.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Draft scores based.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
On the current scoring where we've scored like half the
houses in the I made up the rest, so you know,
so it'll it'll probably evolve.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I mean, it's it's always evolving, right metas change. Calm down,
everybody out there in the chat, yep, don't need to
get two fights. It's definitely it's definitely.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
Uh, Like I was looking back at some of the
stuff that Z had scored back in the day, and
definitely some things have changed, so we might have to
go back at some point and revisit some old cards.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, I'm wondering if they've changed or just like because
meta has changed, of these cards now gotten slightly loose, yeah,
some of both. So little column, a little Columbie. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If only we had somebody that was like in charge
of that. It's you now. Yeah, I was a little hint.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
It's not good, but it's it's content. If we if
we argue about it on the show instead of me
just going and.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Oh yeah no, no, we can definitely argue about it here too,
but overall we can, uh, we can talk about it.
If you guys find it obviously let us know. You
can go over to Patreon in the discord the Patreon channel,
you can let us know if you think cards should
go up or down, and then you can tell us
on Patreon as well, where I check a lot less.

(06:13):
I have been remembering to upload the the ad free
episodes though ever since Toby very.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
I I probably forgot it for like a month and
I was just like, oh yeah, the thing I was doing. No,
it was like a month. It was only like four weeks,
it was three. It was maybe three or four episodes,
but we got an update.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
That was the thing I've been doing for seven years
and now I forgot yeah five.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, that's a That's another thing too. When you start
doing two shows, it's like you get into a rhythm,
you get into a vibe, right draft score, and then
all of a sudden, like it's just you just you're
just going right. But just make the agents do it
for you. Yeah, I should just figure out if chichpt
can do it for me. But we did get some
some reveals from the pledger from Ghost Galaxies, and it's

(07:10):
not much has changed the one thing I did like
to see now instead of well, it's not even instead.
So now there are the dragon Scale decks, which are
just like all the other decks. I don't know if
they have a guaranteed anything, but they'll have a special treatment, right,

(07:32):
I'm glad you're all agree. I guess we really don't
know yet.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Oh you know what, I even missed the dragon Scale
arc on deck. Yeah, why do I miss that?

Speaker 5 (07:44):
We don't know what it is.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
We don't know what it is. Yeah, I mean I'm
assuming it's a.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
Maybe they're the ones that g Sparkle or g packaged
and instead of calling them stripper dust, they're calling them
dragon scales.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
They probably yeah, they probably are border treatment.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
I should get glitter and sprinkle it on G at
KFC and college stripper dust. It'll be pinky smell of never.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Mind, those are now dragon scales.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Those are now dragons, tiny.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
Dragons, tiny dragon scales.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Or we just hire a stripper to come to KFC.

Speaker 5 (08:20):
In the key Forge world, all the dragons are.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
Tiny mm hmm. Will be there, so we're probably covered. Yeah,
I mean, x ray'll help us find it. X Ray
find a good stripper.

Speaker 5 (08:33):
Yeah. He posted a picture on on Facebook of himself
in the hospital.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
But like but like he works in the hospital.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
He was like, yeah, that's not what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
I surely is not like critical care. It's some choice thing.
I haven't quite decided what joke to land on him.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Left is gonna be he's getting a b b l.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
Ah, could be oh my god, alright, poor guy's probably
like getting his tonsils out or something, and we're.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Like, hey, he's got a butt lift. He's getting a
Brazilian butt lift.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Brazil's a regular butt lift and a Brazilian butt lift.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
I don't know what an extra bee if you go
to Russia or Brazil to get it. Well, there's a
Russian butt lift.

Speaker 5 (09:25):
That where all buttlets come from.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Why would all buttlets come from Russia.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
It's a little segear.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
You get the tear drops inside of the I don't know,
I've watched one of these Brazilian butt lifts on I
don't remember what platform it was on, but it was
fucking gross, fucking blood shooting everywhere. It was gnarly. Go
YouTube Brazilian butt lift. Your life will never be the same.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
But hopefully none of my kids.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah, he just he did have a bit of it
was definitely that area, is what he just posted stand
in chat. No, it was definitely down in the nether
regions that he was getting work too. Therefore butt lift
clearly butt lift.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
All right, So back on this with.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Our pledge level, Back on Task.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
Back on Task are also going to.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Be personalized decks, so nobody's uh oh, go ahead. You
got something else to say about the dragons, well.

Speaker 4 (10:31):
No, before dragon skills. I guess the first thing that
jumped out at me is for the pledge reward tears.
Your two player starter set is still wins of exchange.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Sure, I.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Know, but like that, that's how bad they overprinted.

Speaker 5 (10:45):
Like I think it'll be wins of Change forever.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
You think forever? Okay, because I remember that it was
going to change out. Yeah, every single set. This is
going to be no, no, they.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
Said when they ran out. Yeah, updated to the newest set.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
I remember what e Wok remembers and was told us that, yes,
it would change that they would change every single set.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
Now see I remember what she remembers, and we're clearly right.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Well two to two and we're in total agreement like usual, okay,
outside of this anything else, surprise you.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
They did go down to the one personalized deck as
you were starting to say that, So maybe I don't
know you guys on.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
Your one person Yeah, you only get one personalized arkind deck. Yeah,
never mind.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
If you spend a bajillion dollars you can only get one.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
No, I mean I only need one. I mean I want,
I want to.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
I got all sorts of good ideas. Yeah, I know,
Well you can only probably want to dress score one.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah you should. You should get a drazz square. Well,
but should to make your address sixty? You you talk.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
About that, but they removed play mats because they were
listening to yeah that we don't need situates because no,
I agree with that. What I want, Yeah, and I do.
I think that now you can order what you want.
But it is interesting that they removed it here, it
says from the Reaper of Amber tier and above. So interesting.
You can see the personalized decks.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
They'll put is like an add on, like you can
just add on whatever you want, like.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
So damn copy and paste.

Speaker 4 (12:41):
I mean, slim, what are you really looking for? Are
you looking at like? If it's not, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
I think that I don't I can get a lap
dance from Josh.

Speaker 5 (12:55):
I mean, that's just.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
You just you just need to give a few libations.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
No, I think that this slim down on the mats.
I think that you have the personalized deck which they
send down.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
But guess what else is missing? Right well, at least
right now.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
Well, well, what they went through was that, uh, they're
slimming down on the custom decks because it just proved
to be too complex. So they put in some new items.
And I think the new items are actually very very nice,
nice editions.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
But go ahead, wikie, I'm just saying, guess what else.
What else is missing? Anybody knows anything else missing? For now? Uh?
What what's missing? There's no other there's no tertiary set.
Oh yeah for now? For now?

Speaker 5 (13:53):
Now that's what that's in the first like reward tier thing,
correct that the first reward tier is always the you
get the name of the next.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
Yeah, okay, but there's not some weird set this time. Yeah,
there's not a there's not a crucible clash or a
menagerie or but you know they could add that as
Oh you unlocked the dumb set. Congrats. I mean, honestly,

(14:23):
I don't know right like that could be coming. So
it was just something I noticed. There's no tertiary set,
that's kind Oh no, there's always been the last time
they didn't do it though, No, they've.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Never not done it. There's always been a tertiary set.
There's always been.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
Doesn't it get released like after the first couple or
after the first week or there will be a picture
of what it could mean. Well, they haven't actually announced everything.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
So this is true. This was just the This was
just the sneak peak. I know I'd still be in there.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
Yeah, I don't know if you guys noticed the thing
that jumped out to me was actually the price increase,
and it was minimal, but you essentially went from like
the Reaper of Amber from one sixty to one sixty five,
and that was just even from PB. You can see
the difference there your Seeker of decks eighty to eighty
five here, so they're a slight increase. That's kind of continuing.

(15:30):
The Breaker of Chains actually went from four to twenty
five to four fifty, and then you had seven eighty
five to seven eighty five for the Turner of Keys,
so that stayed the same. So where many people had
fallen in that Breaker of Chains, they bumped or increase
that by actually the largest margin. So interesting to see

(15:55):
how that's kind of worked out. You can see. Then
you have your architect of the Crucible, so that was
the fifteen hundred. That's still at fifteen hundred, and then
we have our architect of the Crucible Premium, all right,
which in the art and that's two we are assuming

(16:15):
the Crucible and me art frame is the personal Life.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
Somebody said that's what it was called in the previous ones.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Yeah, so even just going through that it in the
previous one it was called the Crucible of me. So, yes,
it didn't have uh Art frame, but that's that is
what it is, so I assume that's the Yeah, I

(16:42):
don't know it was. It was minor and in things continuing.
I don't know about you guys, but from groceries to
everything that's increased. But yes, this, for the most most
of these have increased by five.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Ember skies did come with talk crucible clash did not
was not in any of the pledges. It wasn't It wasn't,
so I guess it was.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
Well and then they changed the pledges to include it
because yes, that's what people wanted.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Oh okay, I was trying to find any because I
can't find the pledge tears. I found the pledge tears,
but I can't find the rewards. Here we go. That's
what I was like, No, this is just everything I
can add on. Yeah, I was trying to find Like
when you know, when you you opened a tier.

Speaker 5 (17:43):
I mean, it doesn't matter if there's a tertiary said
or not. It'll either be there or it won't.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
Well, No, this is something that I at least I
asked for. Don't do a tertiary s, don't do a
second set, focus on making this a good set. Now,
whether that happened or not, I don't know, right, I mean,
you know, maybe they didn't do the tertiary set. But
do they actually mean right, that's that's the next question.

(18:09):
Nobody knows, right, So, but.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
There are echoes down right.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
Yeah, echoes of omens comes out? Nobody knows. But anyways,
there will be full art ar condecks.

Speaker 5 (18:24):
Yes, I think that's some people were questioning, is that
a single full art card or a deck full of
full art cards?

Speaker 2 (18:35):
Well, we don't know yet, but it says full art
arcn decks. So I mean because then underneath they're going
to have foil ARCon you know, you will get one
full foil.

Speaker 5 (18:51):
Oh, this is the other one. And then they're saying,
is this one full art fil or a full deck
with oil? I think it's a full deck with soil.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
I would assume that's how I read my reading.

Speaker 4 (19:01):
Yes, but as ark Ons Corner can only do, we
don't actually know.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
Yep, nobody knows. I'm sure we'll find out soon.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
I do think it's cool the full art deck can
appear just randomly into the display.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
That was the other thing. Yeah, full art decks were
able to appear, but foil decks are not.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
I'm actually okay with that, and I think just I
like that the full art can.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Be in I think foil should as well be in
a regular wild box too. Maybe make it a little
more rare than the full art, but give me a
reason to crack some packs.

Speaker 5 (19:42):
So the I mean inserting a random full foil deck
is one of those things where they'd have to print
them and then randomly mix them into their like packaging line.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Where if it's a full art deck anyway.

Speaker 5 (19:59):
No, so for the full art decks, it's just like
an anomaly in Forge Fire. All forge Fire has to say, oh,
this is a one in one thousand pole. It puts
full art in that deck and it just goes in
as a standard print. Pats goes right, because it's just
it's just a rare chance of getting a full art card.

(20:20):
They don't have to it's not coming off of a
different print line because the full art is created in
Forge Fight.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
But aren't they packed by hand anyway? No? You sure?

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Maybe?

Speaker 5 (20:34):
Maybe, I don't know. I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
I think they are. That was I'm pretty sure some
time we had gotten a video of somebody putting decks
in a box.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
Now, whether that's actually boxes right, Yeah, that was.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
A long time ago.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
They might have changed. Whether that's still how they do
it or not. I don't know if something tells me
that is still how they do it.

Speaker 5 (21:00):
But you know, but once again, if you have somebody
who knows exactly which box they put stuff in, it
just it just adds.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
Yeah, Wookie, what we what we have seen is that
they had basically the decks that are wrapped and then
they shuffle those up, put them over on the side,
and then those were moved into essentially a sleeping machine
or the outside plastic component. So that that we have
seen more recently, I don't know the most recent updated packaging,

(21:33):
but that's what we have seen. Yeah, I'll still come
back full art decks. I'm very happy with. I know,
I think the thing that would make this better. What
are the chances that your full art deck is going
to be not great?

Speaker 2 (21:54):
Not great?

Speaker 4 (21:54):
It's a very very very very very small chance. Like
if if that, that would be amazing to roll out
and have this full art deck that is actually spicy
and that you can play. But I still think the
full art deck is going to be collectible and enjoyable
for a number of us who looking forward it.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Yeah, I'm looking forward. It's cool.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
Oh and the date changed too, so Thursday September.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yeah, they change because they were like, oh, September eleventh
is now a bad time.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah, so if you're going to Vegas.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
But but yeah, they needed more time because you know,
I think they said that's what course is more time.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
But Thursday September eighteen, the eve of the last US
vaults for Vegas. That is uh, that's when it's going.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Is that excited you walk? You coming?

Speaker 4 (22:44):
I was looking at flights again. I thought it was
completely ruled out, but flights have well I saw a
good flight. I did not have everything in order, and
the time was like the return flight was off. It
was a three, so I had to be at the
airport at one and well light probability. But if you

(23:07):
actually make it into the finals, they're like, all right,
Z flipped coin, but we are I don't know right now,
then everything has gone sky high. It's like four ninety nine,
five hundred. I did see a flight today, so who knows.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Keep your eye out.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
I want to see if if anyone wants to buy
a box of woe for one hundred dollars. It'll get
me there. I'll put that in a shipped No like, seriously.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Again, I'm at sheep pass.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
Okay, box of box of woe at honored shipped is not.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
A bit a box of sadness at one hundred dollars.

Speaker 4 (23:53):
Actually, I would argue that our token spam has quite
a bit of counter to what you're seeing from TV.
But you make your own choices.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yeah, but when you can't play cards, your tokens don't matter. Okay,
it's just saying I tried token spam, didn't pan out,
but I will.

Speaker 4 (24:15):
I will say that Melondrack has actually come back, and
Melondrac doesn't have the sea. But with both disruption and
ability to play cards, there are very very few times
that you're completely wiped off from being able to play cards.
And at that point, if it is on turn one,
great hit for you. But that is not a high probability.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
All right, Shall we go into the nations of the Dutch?

Speaker 4 (24:46):
Nations?

Speaker 2 (24:47):
The Dutch? I hate the Dutch? Wow? All right? Can
you want to name that movie?

Speaker 4 (24:57):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (24:58):
Frozen? No? Yes? Yes, well, famously known for his hatred
of the Dutch people. I don't know they're like fake
Dutch and frozen. Yeah one, yeah, I don't know if
he's there, you go very.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, very put the Austin Powers gold member.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
There you go at a boy Berry and the Dutch.
I don't even have a name tag. Just you have
no chance against me, just not remembering you have Austin Powers.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
The other day I referenced Austin Powers and like my
kids said, know what I was talking about?

Speaker 2 (25:44):
I was like, oh, man, yeah you feel is this
surprise you have failed as a father? Like is that
from the nineteen hundreds? Yes, yes, before they had talking
things on the TV? Yes, damn kids.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Did you have color on the TV in the nineteen.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
Hundreds some years? Yeah, we've probably talked about this before.
Have you had to explain to your children about how
phones used to be on the wall and to go
from room to so I did a really long time.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
I don't remember that conversation, but I do remember a
time where so my parents like kept all my old
toys for whatever reason, because I don't know now they're
worth a million stall, I guess. So we show up
my parents' house, right, My oldest at the time was
I don't know how old, three something two, three, whatever,

(26:44):
and uh, probably two, I don't know. And so like
brings that. My mom brings out all the old toys.
You remember, it was like that toy phone with the
eyeballs that was like you could pull around. They still
make that today. So like, yeah, she goes over, like
you know, picks the phone up off the receiver, looks

(27:04):
at the cord.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
She's like, tied down? Yeah, what are you tied down
this phone? What's going on here?

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (27:15):
You had to have optimal placement where you'd be away
from any siblings and parents, so you could talk to
your friends and that significant other. But you know, people
could still kind of hear you, so where you were
sitting you could be comfortable and put her back against
the wall. This is all important.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
And then when you're thinking out yours gonna beat you
with that chord because it was long and it would
always get tangled.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
I do not have this problem, Wookie. So I don't
know about.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Clearly you were. You were You were a boy scout
child too, so I can't beat with the with the cord.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
But I lived a double life, Wookie.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Enough about Wookie's fantasies. Let's go back to the Dutch
eleven players total. It was a small national championship. Eleven
player eleven for Alliance, twelve for ar CON, and only

(28:22):
eleven for Sealed. I wonder if somebody got lost, if
they pulled a pete, they came back too late. For one,
she got disqualified. I mean, somebody can only show up
on Sunday. Yeah, maybe because they did it three separate days, right, correct? Yep?
So top four, top four, cutting all the formats and

(28:46):
for is this sealed as the first one, I'm guessing
that's ARCN that is I'm gonna make this a little bigger.
Who won sealed? We have this? It doesn't well, we didn't.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
We didn't have a channel, so like there was no
channel or record this information. So then like lord, Judo
starts like paying me, like you're not me, but just
like us in general, the channel is like, hey, we
don't have our own channel.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Frownie face. So he just starts pacing stuff.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
So I respond, I'm like, oh, did we like do
our normal like incompetence and just never.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
I don't know if you ever made a channel. He's like,
oh no, we never asked. I don't know if we've
ever done channels for Nationals. Did we I don't know.

Speaker 4 (29:35):
We could Canadian Canadian Nationals.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
You've had up different Canadian because I went to it,
that's true.

Speaker 5 (29:43):
Do you want just like Evansville gets a channel because
we're we want to go to it, although I don't
know if that's actually try to go well.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
We were also asking asking you shall receive?

Speaker 4 (29:55):
Do you want? Do you want the sealed? Because I
do have our actual two sees old who is who is?

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Who is? Sheep gotta go up against? And sealed? All right?

Speaker 4 (30:06):
In sealed the two people coming from the Dutch Nationals.
Our winner was Motility Dragon and then the runner up
was Motility five.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Each other.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Yeah, well yeah, it runs in the family.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
And if I'm correct, both of these players were from
the Dutch. What was it another Lions? Is that the team?

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Correct? Lions?

Speaker 4 (30:39):
I'm saying it wrong.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Now, where's harmed?

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Yeah he's in Vietnam, Yeah, I know, which is kind
of cool.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Yeah, maybe he's hanging out with uh Ku. Yeah, either way,
those are your two players, and raps to both of
those players for your invites. I'm insanely jealous if you'd
like to trade one of those invites for an alliance
invite let me know. I don't know if they'll allow

(31:12):
us to do that, but I'm sure they would entertain
the discussion.

Speaker 4 (31:18):
They won't.

Speaker 2 (31:19):
I will say, why not always kill my like is
your dream in life to drag my dreams out into
the street and put put a bullet in it? Just
kill it?

Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yes, Okay, that.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
That's out of the way. Okay, let's move forward.

Speaker 5 (31:36):
He has it to me too.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
So that's what friends do. They kill each other's dream.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Kill each other's dreams.

Speaker 4 (31:46):
In a positive note, I will say, while the community
was small, we did have some people who traveled U.
So there was a nice French contingent that showed up
for the Dutch Nationals. And not only that, but man,
the graphics that were showing the information there very well
put together and organized. So I think that's g take. No, honestly,

(32:09):
the twelve people who showed up for Dutch Nationals got
kind of the treatment that we saw for the large
events that RIKU would put on. And yeah, it was
both of those events have been much better than what
we saw for.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Now, to be fair, right, you only had eleven people.
And I'll cut gg little slack here because to do
that for I mean, I guess there is a lot
of time between rounds, but you don't know you would
You would need a person that's literally just sitting there
doing graphics.

Speaker 4 (32:47):
But you could do that will be for me. You
got New Jermy, you can do that. You can do
that for top eight and again, Lord.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Top Yes, you can do that. You can do that
for top eight because you can have all eight prepare
a lot of it. Well, not a lot of it's
going to transfer over, but like, yeah, you can have
a lot of that done and prepare that. So yeah,
for top eight, you can do that. For the normal
tournament you probably couldn't. I don't know how versed. A uh,

(33:18):
I don't know how versed. You know, like Jeremy or
Josh or New Jeremy or anyone. It goes galaxy as
with photoshop and how that works.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
Well, the one guy who does their video content, I
bet you, I bet you he knows what's up.

Speaker 5 (33:33):
Yeah, it's Hurley's brother.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
It's Hurley's brother. He's not always there either. He's there
for like a handful of hours and then he leaves.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
Yeah, Keithurly, I will say, Lord. Judo played a really
important part for Final Refrain. And we've seen that continue.
This seems very much like a template. So once you
have the template up, you can pull in what is
the individual deck and what we're seeing is it's saying
at the top what the event was, so Dutch Nationals
twenty twenty five. You then have a slide for ARCon

(34:02):
alliance or sealed, and then you have the deck name.
Guess what it actually shows the prophecy, the cards that
are there, and then the team that's on the bottom. Okay,
you got to grab that information. But over on the right,
the stats here are simply things that we can ping
from d ok for sas amber, amber control, artifact control,
creature control. Those are items that, again on the template,

(34:25):
are easy enough to fill in that it should auto
populate that template by just bringing your DK link. But
it's snazzy, it looks nice, it's a nice graphic and
it helps people on the you know, from the watching side,
to be able to see. So I think it was
very well done.

Speaker 2 (34:45):
No, it was pretty cool. It is is pretty nifty
and it was well done. But yes, you can transfer
this over. I don't know how much time or effort
is really put into the streams Callie to anybody. I mean, yes,
it's it is very it is very nifty, and yeah

(35:07):
you can you can do it, but it's just up
to them to actually put the effort into it. Going
first off, we have top eight decks. Uh this.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
You want to run with?

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Yeah? This is our cor Sorry I was going to
get there. Top eight decks at ARCon. Let's just take
a look at this graphic that was provided Harmed did
this right? That was provided by Harmed? So set distribution
for the top eight. You guys want to go. You
want to run us? You want to run us down

(35:45):
through that there at draft Corps. Sure, so, I know
it's difficult, soap, well what'd you do? I moved it
trying to make bigger we go. That was an under
mm hmm.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
So they had the top four move on to the finals.
So the top four players uh in Arkhan, were Harmed, Lord, Judo,
Mobile five, and Ashitaka. The decks that they played were, uh,

(36:22):
well those were all PV. So of the top eight,
of the top four, it was all PV and of
the top eight decks, which is normally what we pull, seven.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Of the eight were PV. One was Ambuski's Yes, so
surprise I mean no, not right now.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
And people want to play their PV, but like for
it to be that dominant. I mean, this is a
small field, so it's just there is a bit of
just if people are like, we're going to bring our TV,
then PV is going to make top.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
But I mean there's some good PV decks in the
field here, right, Surprise surprise, uh one two, Sanctum two,
Trenk's Creed. I know you're all surprised at that.

Speaker 4 (37:17):
Well, you look at Trenk's Creed and I think that's
definitely something to look at for Arkan. I thought that
twenty five percent being made up of diss and twenty
five percent being made up of logos.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Yeah, they're probably fifty.

Speaker 4 (37:32):
Percent between the two outs. I mean we yes, we
see it.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
But they're the two best houses in PV. Those are
your top number one that is probably number one and
number two just then logos.

Speaker 4 (37:46):
I just it was interesting. I also saw the stat
for SaaS average being one O two, so you're in yes,
pb uh even our local mister perfect As. We were
a score our decks from sealed this week. What was
your score, sheep? And then it was yours and then
He's like, you gotta add plus twenty for PV and

(38:08):
it does definitely keep creeping up.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
In SaaS Man, a Burnish Nickels, a double Burnished Nickels
deck made it into a top eight. Huh well, triple
took first. Yeah really triple.

Speaker 4 (38:23):
Yeah, and it was then it harmed is on another
Forge Lions. Sorry I messed that up earlier, but another Forge.

Speaker 2 (38:30):
Lions see a double Yeah, the uh just check.

Speaker 4 (38:37):
Yeah, I put I put, I put harmed.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
The winning deck is, by the way, also the highest
drazz score deck of the bunch, not the highest sorry,
but the highest strass score.

Speaker 2 (38:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Highest drass score took first. Second, highest drass corps took second.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
One of the top.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
Tour four was tied for third and the other one
was then fifth. Uh so you know, obviously it's amazing
Patre today to get your top dress score, Dex. That's right,
get in there and then at me and I'll give
you your top five. So so yeah, triple Burnish Nichols,

(39:20):
it does have the triple in furnace. Now, the damage
pips aren't in an amazing spot to actually do it,
So I don't know that there was a lot of
burnished Nickels in furnace Shenanigans.

Speaker 2 (39:35):
But I guess this as possible.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
Well, yeah, triple and furnace. It's got the atrocity, it's
got double four seer with the the Steiner's formula and
double reassembly required in a rage reset like.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Pretty good.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
It's got the hoodwink.

Speaker 4 (39:58):
I actually cover fire like, I actually think that there's
quite a bit of removal in that. This double banish,
a gift of amber and double doom. Those are really
key components to get guards off logos. Again, you're looking
for the board that's being built here, So look technicians,

(40:18):
ZRP chaw candle unit, double four seer, you get six.
That's that's a strong board if it can go ahead
and stay out there, but enough actions to make it
very very worthwhile. You actually there's some of those that
you care about too. I think the shadows the weak
is here.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
Now the record world because it's got the trouble burners Nickels.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
Well correct, but I mean it has your artifact control
of borrow, which can be brutal. Cover fire is steel
and hoodwink, so major steel that's coming from both of those,
and then you have a little bit to see with
your Johnny Thunk likes nice.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
I like Thunk. Well that's great.

Speaker 4 (41:04):
That's why I said, chummy Thunk borrow cover fire. That's
an hoodwink like those those. That's it, and.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
It's got Look how far you come and overreached to
very strong prophecies.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Yes, so so it's pretty good. It's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (41:25):
So when you look at this, though, what prophecies are
you really worried about?

Speaker 2 (41:33):
Sorry?

Speaker 4 (41:33):
What what are your fates?

Speaker 2 (41:36):
What fates in the in Savannah?

Speaker 3 (41:41):
Yeah, I mean there's parasitica, rachnoid. Uh, there's rage reset
that's very strong.

Speaker 4 (41:48):
I think I think.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
Somebody required if you care about your.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Archives, So that is in there too.

Speaker 4 (42:03):
That's true really, but it's it's coming in logos. It's reiteration,
as rage Re said, potentially that the whole reassembly required.
But I'm telling you there's not a ton that I'm
really worried about.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
Yeah, because you're looking to stash on Burtish nickels underneath
there and never see them ever again.

Speaker 4 (42:21):
Correct, you just keep cycling them. But that's thrown in there.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Who cares if they ever pop out?

Speaker 4 (42:28):
Well, there's a whole purpose actually to go ahead and
potentially in furnace them too with the triple in furnace
and get rid of them and thin your deck become
more efficient. There's there's definitely some options, but it was
an interesting setup. I look one for what the prophecies are,
and then I also look, Okay, what fates do I

(42:50):
really really really have to worry about?

Speaker 2 (42:53):
Yeah, those are the only three, really, I mean reassembly required.
Maybe again, it's only if you care about your archives.
But also, none of these prophecies matter.

Speaker 4 (43:08):
It's chummy and ragery. Is that like?

Speaker 2 (43:11):
Yeah, chummy? I guess, Yeah, but I don't I don't
know if any of these trigger, like in any kind
of meaningful way. Go forth and conquer it used to fight, steal?

Speaker 3 (43:29):
Yeah, no, go for Yeah. So I assume I don't
know this. I assume you're putting everything under Look how
far you're common overreach and occasionally it only gets worse.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
And I guess, and I guess we don't really know,
because it doesn't These aren't necessarily stacked back to back.
It could be any combination, right, ye, overreach. Thanks, we
don't know, they don't know, they do? Do somebody just
for check someone forgot to check the box. Somebody just

(44:00):
forgot to check the box.

Speaker 3 (44:02):
Remember, sent it to forge Fire randomly, and then they
just printed it.

Speaker 2 (44:06):
However, remember remember how we also didn't know where any
of the pips were on cards until oh what does
this button do? And then all of a sudden it
was like magic. They were there and we all knew
where they were. Yeah, we should all be posting actually,

(44:26):
so yeah, so what about this?

Speaker 4 (44:29):
What about the deck that also is potentially coming too
worlds and that is from more Judo. So the melancholic
painter of Marty Blenz dis logos again in shadows, So
pretty strong combination anything jump out to U sheep over
there nice and quiet.

Speaker 5 (44:51):
Now, because I'm not paying that much attention.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
Perfect, I think we've got So you got hoodwink again. Right,
so you got one of your million point cards. Felder's
planned very good, double Miasthma slow your friends down, double
band of culver to discard some of this other stuff. Uh,
you got your rage reset again. All you got your

(45:14):
wasted shallows pip on it.

Speaker 4 (45:18):
I think the shadows though, even like you have Hawk
to deal with some artifacts. Double predatory landing, which you're
going to exalt and enrage because Logos with its reap,
it can at least slow it down and be forced
to fight. I know it's odd, but I don't see
that as being used as as its fate. But yes,

(45:39):
in logos you had.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
The creatures here, great and they're going to try to
kill the band of Culvers.

Speaker 4 (45:43):
So but parallel thinking rage, reset, reiteration, double four, Seer,
candle in it, double chaw. I actually really liked the
cyber clone. Yeah, so good.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
You know we rated for Seer only a four.

Speaker 4 (46:01):
I think it probably yeah, it probably does need to
be a five.

Speaker 2 (46:03):
And retroste Yeah, I think we valued that one. Yeah,
looking at two and getting one on play and I
mean doesn't often stick around for the rate, but but
it can it canying.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
Yeah, it can play. I think what's actually really powerful
on it is to control what's coming up. But there's
also a number of prophecies and fates that will go
ahead and trigger based on it. I think that having there,
there are a number of things that play off of
knowing what the top card is, and so that is

(46:40):
wormhole common.

Speaker 3 (46:42):
Right, that's pretty good. Yep, talk about this deck that
I don't understand how it lost.

Speaker 4 (46:53):
Okay, well you're there. I think that this sitting at thirty,
it is the lowest sasspit. But uh, this one did
not really isn't very good. No Double Gift of Amber,
Banish Infinity, Strop, Poltergeist very good.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
But Poise Strike Pois Strike isn't bad. Not letting them
They're basically going to be skipping a turn if they
want to go back to anything, which a lot of
the times in these decks you want to go back
to logos if possible, right, or go back to a house.
So this this does happen. Poise Strike not too bad. Solo.
I've seen solo dominate games. I've seen solo cost games,

(47:35):
Parasitic erected. You want to pop off and furnaces its furnace,
Poulter geys like, this is almost the this is almost
the the I need to clean up house. I don't
know how often you call this with this. When you
have to do cre control basically strikes right, It's like

(47:57):
when you have to creature control, that's that's about it,
that's all the creatures, correct. Yeah, yeah, but when you
have to do some creature coming out of burst, that's
what your distance here for. It's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
Yeah, I mean it does have eighteen printed amber. It
has thoughtness of ask again later, so that's that's great.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
Uh it came in top four. Okay, this deck is gross, all.

Speaker 4 (48:24):
Right, go ahead talk about it.

Speaker 2 (48:27):
So this logo is untamed. This this is actually we
were talking about this before. This is jaz Corp's Nightmare deck.
It's got in furnace. This is quad in furnace one
two three four quad in furnace with a double windrow.
So we can just keep cycling those in furnaces back. Yep.
Traumatic Act is skilled one of my decks Traumatic Actions

(48:50):
double double one.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
It's got the double double unity Prism in logos.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
Yeah, I was getting there, I was getting there. It's
got a life war in there, a traumatic echo, a
Poulter guyst a Streup hamstring is man but Arachnoid's fine.
Rage reset double Actually, are there any dead cards in
this logos pod rage reset double Unity Prism, Captain Chah
designer Crick.

Speaker 4 (49:18):
Yeah, that's three two.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
D double double Darns one has an untamed PIP, so
that's an almost witch level status, so you kind of
almost have to kill it double zup. You can't archiving
two cards on a reap from two houses. Really, yep,

(49:46):
it's gonna, it's.

Speaker 4 (49:47):
Gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna, it's gonna see good play
And yes you want to, but you're not always gonna
be able to kill that wookie.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
I know, but you have to feel like it is.
It is a witch status card to where you have
to figure out how to kill it because from two
houses getting two cards from two houses, yausers, I'm gonna
put on my inspector, gadget had hat and go yawsers
double zerps need some more card? Draw yes please, or

(50:19):
or you can burn through cards if you don't want
to play them. You can scrap them to discard a
card and draw three. If you need some more efficiency, zup?
What do we give? Zup? Zup is way better I
think than what we rated him up.

Speaker 3 (50:34):
We gave uh, I'll tell you.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
Wait, we give a three. Yeah, he might be a four.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
We only gave Darn a two, I guess because it's slow.

Speaker 2 (50:48):
It's it's super slow. But the fact that the with
the second with the housepip on Darn, that does make
Darn pretty.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
The Yeah, we did not give it which status by
giving it a two, whereas zef Punch was a four, right,
we did, We did give that quite a bit higher.

Speaker 5 (51:11):
All these logos guys like if it's the only one
on the board, they're just good. The thing with these
logos creatures is you're playing against somebody lance four or
five of them, yes, and then that is just you're
just like you either antsel or you're basically done well.

Speaker 2 (51:26):
It's almost like, yeah, you gotta have a stroop right,
like you gotta have an infinity stroop ready to go.

Speaker 4 (51:32):
Well. But I think that's what you're seeing is a
lot of c coming from the disc with a gift
of ambers. They tell no tale like double Doom Banish.
You're looking at a lot of control in those top
placing decks that would have beat it. And I do

(51:56):
think that you have some time. I actually like Harmsdawn
for his logos. When you get the play effect from
force ear, yes, Samardith Stern is very good, but it's
slow that you still have a chance to respond. And
so when people are.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
Colonial witch, colonial witch is a little bit witchy status.

Speaker 4 (52:16):
That's that is a witch.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
And a windrow and a windrow. Could you imagine all
four of your furnaces are out and you you get
to reap with colonial Witch destroying all your furnaces and
then wind rowing getting them back.

Speaker 4 (52:33):
Pretty good, pretty good, well shuffling, yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
I mean shuffle and they're now available again.

Speaker 4 (52:43):
I mean, it's it's, it's it's good.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
Once we get to untamed, I think it'll be really
interesting to see. Because I gave one Tame trash scores
when I was just filling out the scores, so I
actually run the draft score tool. I'm curious where we
end up with with some of these scores.

Speaker 2 (53:05):
It can go a lot of different ways. Like chonk
Evermore is trash. I don't ever want to see chonk Evermore.

Speaker 4 (53:12):
Right, chunk Evermore destroyed me this week at Sealed because
it gave plus pounters when I had just enough to
do two. But yeah, for the most part, it does nothing, yes,
and that's what we're looking at. But I mean, you
have I don't know, there's some cards. Yes you're talking
about which, but loyal pack mat is actually what provides

(53:34):
the protection on your darns.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
And your vie and your rat.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
But vivid fairies are so slow, like.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
You, they're slow. But yeah, great, but if you put
a loyal packbit down you're able to give them not
being able to be targeted or not not be able
to be fought into. Now you have to have targeted removal,
which a lot of these decks do, right all.

Speaker 4 (54:01):
So look look at this deck that you're really excited about.
One what are the prophecies? Ask again later? Good, expect
the unexpected. After your opponents shuffles, yep, go forth and
conquer after fight and then wounds into wisdom.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
After that, I will take damage.

Speaker 5 (54:19):
That will especially if you got atrocity.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Yeah it doesn't. It doesn't have atrocity. But well, but
that's that happens on your own turn, though not on
their turn. That's true too, what happens on their turn
does happen on their turn?

Speaker 5 (54:33):
Guarantee just fired?

Speaker 2 (54:35):
Yeah, I guarantees firing wound to wisdom because at the
beginning of your opponent's turn they reveal the top card
of their deck, they have to call that house.

Speaker 3 (54:42):
Wait wait, during your opponent's turn after a friendly creature, Okay, yep,
you're right.

Speaker 2 (54:46):
Yep, yes, but if you look, this disc does not
have it no atricity, it's just got all the other
good cards.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
But okay, what what fates do we want to go
out and stick on there. It's got good cards. I
agree with you.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
I will happily put the vestment underneath to uh to
archive all of my in furnaces. If possible, I will
gladly put an arachnoid underneath to have them lose two.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
You're in Christmas free land for this. But yes, vestment
is there? Okay, something to watch out for. Parasitic rachnoid?

Speaker 2 (55:23):
Am I Christmas Land? Because the furnaces typically don't get killed.
All they have to do is not be on a
flank at the beginning of their turn for ask again later,
furnaces don't get killed because traditionally their better recursion came
from the bore from from them. Right.

Speaker 5 (55:46):
But again you can, yeah, you can. You're gonna know
their list, You're gonna know what they're trying to do.
So then all of a sudden you start killing.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
But do I want to kill them because they also
have windrow, so now they're gonna be shuffling it back in.

Speaker 4 (56:01):
Yeah, well it has ten percent amber. I actually think
the double unity prisms it hurts a little bit here
early on because you want to be trying, yes, because
you want to play your actual creatures and.

Speaker 2 (56:16):
You scrap it, get embers. It's so flexible.

Speaker 4 (56:20):
It's flexible, but you can do if I have a
four to two, maybe I'm getting two Amber and I'm
just moving on and that's okay. But I think that's
it gives you some flexibility, but it's.

Speaker 2 (56:32):
Unity Prism allows busted things to happen. Being able to
play four cards of any house, I still get to
play for it, which is still two thirds of my hand.
So I'm still drying.

Speaker 5 (56:49):
I mean, outside of first turning it, like, I have
not been a person who is finding great value in
Unity Prism, Like I find it better as a discard
than it is as uh as playing car because you're handcrafting,

(57:09):
you're generally playing four cards anyways. True, So that's just
where I felt like, but it's still got a lot
of value because the discard for two to three Amber
is very strong. So I mean, I'm I'm trying to
say it's a bad card in any way. I'm just
saying there is this whole.

Speaker 2 (57:27):
Wants to move Unity Prism down to three. That's what
I heard.

Speaker 5 (57:32):
That's probably it's probably four.

Speaker 4 (57:34):
It's probably still a four.

Speaker 5 (57:37):
Could be a five. It's fine. I'm not gonna worry
about it too much.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
All right. I like the deck. I think it's pretty dope.
I would not be upset if I opened this.

Speaker 4 (57:55):
What did you guys think about Utility Dragon going ahead
and bringing the one Amber skydeck that made top eight.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
I don't understand how this deck wins.

Speaker 4 (58:06):
Uh so this is.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
How many? Okay?

Speaker 5 (58:13):
Fair?

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Yeah? All right? So what you're saying is that any
other field this doesn't make top eight, Well, you could
top eight.

Speaker 5 (58:26):
I did not say that.

Speaker 2 (58:28):
I don't understand how this.

Speaker 4 (58:29):
I mean, actually, Dutch Nationals, we have the top eight
listed there. It did go one two, oh, okay, and
then I can stop talking there.

Speaker 3 (58:42):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's and and again when you
have such a small one three on the draft score,
which is not that great. It's not bad, but it's
not like amazing.

Speaker 4 (58:54):
Yeah. So when you're looking at the top eight and
you have such a low player count, we have two
sorry three three ones one three zero two two two's
and two one twos. So the Amber Skies being one
of those one twos. H kay.

Speaker 2 (59:13):
We don't have any decks the oh no, we don't
have any u r ls for the Alliance. I didn't
copyment because it's Alliance. Oh all right, I guess we
don't care about Alliance anymore here.

Speaker 4 (59:26):
So yes, for for Arcan, your winners were again harmed
first Lord Judah for a second, and then we can
at least say who the winners were for Alliance.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
Good with that, yeah, Forge, Yeah, is Dexter in a chat? No,
Dexter's not here anymoreh not the moment because Dexter makes
out me cry. But set a distribution a little bit

(01:00:05):
better for for Alliance, right, we only had h I
am having a real hard time reading this, trying to
make it as big as I can before it tells
me no, all right, pv was three, that thirty six
percent of the field. Wee nine point one, gr nine

(01:00:27):
point one, ember Sky is eighteen point two mmmmm and
a nine point one Interesting there, I'd like to see
that mmmm build.

Speaker 4 (01:00:37):
And then uh, well, remember you only have eleven players
for Sealed and for Alliance true and.

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
Vault Master twenty five making appearance at eight point two
five eighteen point two five and sorry.

Speaker 4 (01:00:52):
Fat was three you oduncan Forge was three and one
h Baker was three and one. Arms was three and
oh so that's your one, two, four, and four, and
then the final top eight was Lord Judo Motility Day.
Those are two and two, and then we had Elie
mac and at one and two.

Speaker 2 (01:01:16):
I still want to see that build. Still, Yeah, we
don't know. I'm curious. Off, I'm allowed to be curious. Sheep. Nope,
a million gigantics. It had one in each each house,

(01:01:42):
that's true, it could have each couldn't get real wild? Wow?
All right, I think that's gonna do it for us
this week? We got anything else to say about Dutch nationals?

Speaker 5 (01:01:57):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (01:01:57):
It seemed like a good time, all right? We got
what other nationals are coming up? Like when's Canadian nationals?
So should we be pimping that when that happens at all?

Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
But I do need a sealed win. So lie de
forge national he's gonna go twenty five. I'm searching see
if the internet knows? All right, here we go it
takes place. Did you do all right?

Speaker 4 (01:02:30):
So?

Speaker 2 (01:02:30):
Dutch?

Speaker 3 (01:02:31):
Okay, Taiwan, Portugal, Brazil And.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
If any of you want channels for your N nine seven,
so September twenty seven, end of this month. But if
any of you want channels for your nationals event, please
reach out to ewok. I'm just kidding. You can reach

(01:02:55):
out to anybody if you.

Speaker 5 (01:02:57):
Can be ignored.

Speaker 2 (01:02:58):
Yeah, if you read out to shape and will be ignored, won't.

Speaker 3 (01:03:03):
Here's all the upcoming here's the upcoming national championships. Now
that I've got the page ups. So we've got Portugal
this weekend, so nine to six, We've got nine to
twelve is Brazil, so that's next weekend. Then the weekend
after that is nine twenty is the Danish National Championships.

Canadian and the UK. It's all the weekend of the
twenty seventh. And then on the weekend of the October fourth,
we've got Italy and Belgium.

Speaker 4 (01:03:44):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:03:44):
And then finally on the October twelfth is Hong Kong.
So get book your plane tickets to all those places.

Speaker 4 (01:03:54):
And I did link it in our actual notes for
those falling along. It looks think we actually missed the
Taiwanese National Championship on the thirtieth of last month.

Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
So for agust yeah, miss miss Taiwan. Yeah. So but
they weren't.

Speaker 4 (01:04:12):
No, no, no, we didn't, which is interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
I thought I saw something on the Facebook page. It
could be maybe I thought I saw something. But again,
if you want, if you want your own channel for
your upcoming national event, I know it's late, but maybe
if you would like your own channel, please let let

(01:04:38):
one of us know and we can make a channel
for you. Uh No, that was for Vietnam. Never mind,
I thought it was Taiwan, but it was definitely Vietnam.
Maybe it was Twitter, so I thought I saw. I
thought I saw somebody to say like this was their
first event and they had a real good time and
Ghost Galaxy had resteeted it. Yeah, Willie Huang made top

(01:05:05):
four an alliance Willy key Forge National Championships and top
eight and sealed tournament. It's my first big key Forge event.
What a fun weekend. Huge thanks for Ghost Galaxy and
our lgs for hosting an amazing event. I'm pretty sure
this was Taiwan because it happened. When was this? When

(01:05:26):
was this? When was this September one? So that yeah,
that would have been like last weekend. So I still
need a sealed win, so does draz cor I need well,
you and you and e Walker are looking for any
wins right now. Any top two finish will do for YouTube.

Speaker 4 (01:05:49):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (01:05:50):
You're welcome.

Speaker 3 (01:05:51):
That one is yep, we both got top two's last year,
but that doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (01:05:58):
Yeah, you know, listen, I'm going to the open. I told,
I told, I was told it was not transferable or refundable,
and I was not allowed to sell my spot in
in uh in worlds, so I I I totally would
have given it away, but you have to play a lot.

(01:06:22):
To be honest with you, I might take the deck
that I was playing simply because I want to get
the accolades on it. I will lie to no one
I am. I am kind of interested in the accolades
on it, just just to just to have it. It
probably would not do much, but just to have you

(01:06:44):
know that's that's not true. I might get that one
turn where I'm able to do something and then that's
when I just go off. You never know. It can
o t K so or it hits my or or
in finished I'm sorry, faint hits my uh hits my

(01:07:06):
my nep seed, and it doesn't matter.

Speaker 3 (01:07:10):
Who knows. It probably wouldn't go down. So I just realized.
Recoup did anybody say this? Recoup posted about the Taiwan
nationals and where did we talk about this us in
another chat? So he said to you, what uh Taiwan
nationals was four PV one talk one g R two MM.

(01:07:34):
I assume triple M is what he's saying there actual
yes for for Ar Khan, I assume. But the rule
was traditional Chinese only, even simplified Chinese not allowed. Oh okay,
And I think there wasn't many participants. Twelve is what
Sarahtoin says, or twelve participants, so that is interesting. Actually,
I don't know traditional Chinese for simplified Chinese.

Speaker 2 (01:07:56):
I don't know what the uh the difference must be
something there. I don't know. If I don't know Taiwan
versus China, who knows? I don't know. I could not
tell you. But make sure if you can get to

(01:08:20):
all of whatever your events you'd like to get to,
you know, because get to all of whatever. Yeah, it's
all of whatever? Right if you get one close, just
go right because KFC is coming up quick, and you
can't say I didn't warn all of you about buying
your AC Slash Vault tour gear. And I'll be warning

(01:08:44):
you throughout the weeks until we get to KFC and
if you get to KFC and you're like, oh man,
I wish I would have Well, that's just too bad.
Drascore says, no, right, Drasquar, Dascar has to be the chicken.
Dascar has to be the heart. It has to be
the mean parent and all this. So he already said, no, okay,

(01:09:05):
all right, you want to We voted when you weren't here,
and we all voted you the bad parent.

Speaker 3 (01:09:10):
Yeah, no dessert until you finish all your vegetables.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
That's right, And we're gonna go eat fried chicken and
we're going to go to the Falling Knife Brewery. It
was a Falling Knife, Falling Knife Brewery. I was just like,
the Falling Axe Brewery. What else we're doing?

Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
We're doing too, I mean, that's lunch one of the days.
But like that was real good, so that's definitely gonna happen.
I like that place we went to last time, which
was the the like fancy crunch Traps. That was a
good spot.

Speaker 2 (01:09:47):
Oh yeah, that was good. That was a good spot. Yep. Yeah,
definitely not what I expected. And then when we got there,
I was like, this is way better than I thought
it was going to be. All right, there's there's a
bunch of good places around. Yep.

Speaker 2 (01:11:27):
I don't know if you'll have that same experience everywhere,
but I was just I was just kind of curious.
I don't think we ever really talked about it because
you were top four there, top to top two. Did
you make top table? Okay, I this is a year ago.
I can't remember what happened yesterday. You gotta helped me

(01:11:48):

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
