In his final broadcast as part of the Limited Resources team, Ryan tells the tale of his journey from aimless preschool teacher with a seemingly-useless Philosophy degree to Coastal Wizard! And hey, because no episode of Limited Resources goes without some meaty Magic strategy, the boys lead off with their insights on triple New Phyrexia drafting.
It’s been a heck of a run! Join Ryan and Marshall as they bring this chapter of Limited Resources to a close.
Join Limited Resources for one of Ryan’s final shows! Marshall talks about his invite to the Community Cup, while Ryan talks about the lead-up to working at Wizards of the Coast and recaps the Rooster Draft format. For the main topic, the boys discuss the impact of New Phyrexia on the Scars-block Draft format now that they’ve both played it a bit, and touch on the upcoming triple-NPH queues on Magic Online as well.
Marshall and Ryan welcome Magic Pro Tom Martell to the show for a Limited-leaning discussion about all things Magic and a few things beyond. Also, stick around for an important announcement that faithful Limited Resources listeners aren’t going to want to miss.
Marshall and Ryan finish up their New Phyrexia set review with an in-depth analysis of each rare in New Phyrexia and its impact on Scars-block Limited. Head into the draft queues fully-prepared!
Back for the second part of their New Phyrexia Limited Set Review, Marshall and Ryan give you their take on every blue, black, red, and green non-rare in the set, just in time for your local prerelease. Infect everywhere, significant color bleeding with effectively colorless spells, and even some free ones to keep in mind. New Phyrexia is going to shake up Scars of Mirrodin Limited, so get in your prep with Ryan and Marsh!
It’s set review time! Marshall and Ryan use the early leak to do their ever-popular blow-by-blow of the new commons and uncommons in two parts. This week, artifacts, lands, and white cards get the full Limited Resources treatment. Also, the boys weigh in on the suspensions surrounding the New Phyrexia leak, and talk about the upcoming Magic Online Community Cup.
In one of the biggest leaks in Magic history, the entire New Phyrexia set has made its way on to the internet more than two weeks before the prerelease. Instead of diving into the set review two episodes early, though, Marshall and Ryan opt to start from a more pulled-back perspective, taking a look at the mechanics in the new set and discussing their impact on both Scars-block Limited and Magic as a whole. What does Phyrexian mana mean for the future of Magic and the integrity of the color pie?
After back-to-back special-guest episodes, Marshall and Ryan return to dynamic duo status, letting loose on a variety of topics including the morality of stalling on MTGO, breaking down aggro infect vs. control infect, an interesting double crack-a-pack, and a weigh-in on the Ban Jace issue. Yes, even the Limited show can pontificate about the health of Standard as it relates to the problem planeswalker.
Marshall and Ryan welcome cube experts Thea “@wmap” Steele and Usman “@usmantherad” Jamil for a Q&A on building, sleeving, shuffling, and playing a Magic cube. Don’t be a square, make a cube!
Inevitably over the course of a Limited format, one’s assessment of cards and archetypes shift from where they began. After updates on the new Card Kingdom store, the Limited Resources clan, Rocket, and Ryan’s Constructed rating, Marshall and Ryan throw out some Mirrodin Besieged cards worthy of discussion and reevaluation.
