  1. I just hope the distance thing at the beginning was just a joke…I am not from the US but even without looking at the map I figured that Seatlle is most likely the city with the most distance to Denver on the West Coast, so Las Vegas must just be close (considering that it is also not on the coast) 🙂

  2. Clearly tooth colector can affect something that doesn’t have any teeth. Since there’s no flavor text attached to the collector, I think it’s unfair to assume that he gives -1/-1 counters solely for removing teeth, as tools necessary for this job can easily be used for inflicting many other kind of bodily arm. Perhaps he just likes collecting teeth as well as inflicting harm on others, like a dentist who also collects dolls.

    I also have to disagree with the Geistblast killing Apothecary Geist. You see, you missunderstood how the spell works. Just like Geistflame from the original Innistrad , it’s a blast made out of actual Geist and not a blast made to kill Geists. If you look closely at the art of Geistblast, you can see that there is indeed a Geist in the large gun the man is using as the source of it’s power. It’s not easy to notice, so I understand the confusion.

    There are much more obvious flavor fails I’d like to add to you list, for example using clipwing on a vampire. None of them ever had any wings, so obviously this card is a blank against them. Or using Aim High on an Inoxerable Blob, the thing has no sence of sight or even earing, clearly it cannot actually aim at anything.
    Dead weight is another one I find weird. On a small creature, sure it’s gonna be a pain to drag around, but let’s say you deadweight Ormendhal, the dude is freakin huge, a ball and chain is not going to slow him down and in fact, I’d argue that it’d make him stronger as he can just use the thing as a flail type weapon.
    Last but not least, Rabid Bite will not work with any of your creatures that doesn’t have a mouth, like one of those faceless scarecrow or again, any sort of Ooze.

    Great show as always 🙂
