But he’s also a long-time magic player, a deeply experienced commander brewer, and a generally good guy. Join us as we talk all things ranging from Lenny’s magic life, his article series, capoeira, and any digression that tickles Andy and Kyle’s fancy.

Innistrad: Midnight Hunt | Reviewed by Listeners

In honor of Golos getting the honor of being banned, we thought we’d point everyone in the opposite direction of popularity. Join us as Andy does a deck blitz episode with nine decks from listeners, all helmed by commanders who register fewer than 500 decks on EDHREC. Let’s get our hipster on and find inspiration to bring the truly cool and original to our tables.

Members Only | Under 500 Decks

Everyone has a deviled egg tray, or an apple slicer, or a shoehorn. How did we end up with that crap?! By buying before we vetted the product! Somehow, we also end up building brews that are our proverbial deviled egg trays. Join us as we explore a few criteria that can help keep us all from building brews that will end up collecting dust. Let’s focus on building actually useful decks.

Brewing to Build | Oswald | Taigam | Krarkashima | Athreos

Strixhaven gave us a lot to work with. And with a couple of releases between us and the wealth of legends that set gave us, with a return to Innistrad around the corner, it’s time to take in as much tech from the wizarding school as we can. Join us as Andy drops a veritable deluge of decks from listeners, brewed from Strixhaven and the accompanying Commander 2021. From attacking artifact creatures, to unsung voltrons, to life gain, and of course, spell-slinging, it’s all here.

Strixhaven | Before You Go

We’ve been on a bit of a wavelength lately of making sure that we all acknowledge that this game only happens if we have people willing to bring a deck to the table, sit down with us, and play. On that continued note, Andy brings a collection of thoughts from a decade of experience in bringing new players into the game. From teaching them the mechanics of the game, giving them a reason to be excited about Magic, finding something for people to identify with, and cultivating hospitable games, Andy and Kyle are opening up what it has looked like to bring new players fully into the EDH fold. ------------------- Patreon:  YouTube:  Twitter: @legend_creature ------------------- Intro and outro music artists vary each episode, but comes courtesy of the sexy souls of the following artists: Home –  Protector 101 –  Dan Terminus –  Silver Richards – 

Guiding New Players into EDH

Some commanders are so beyond use that pasture isn’t a good enough place for them. They need to go to the land that the light doesn’t touch, to the shadowlands. They so break the mold and design that they deserve to be ignored. Kykar is ready to cross over into those realms. Andy and Kyle explore all the ways that Kyle has sinned against the playgroup with his various iterations around Kykar. They also discuss what makes Kykar a seeming design faux pas and propose a few ideas that might itch archetype scratches that you foolishly thought Kykar would reach.

Kykar Gets Put to Pasture

We seem to live in the age of forced fruition. You cast a commander and WotC designs 7 more. So, gird your nerd loins, we’re reviewing Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. For you Dungeons & Dragons geeks and Magic: the Gathering nerds, let’s cross our swords and see what the smash-up has in store for us as commander players. We’ve got all the reviews you could possibly need with dedicated listeners giving each legend the tender love and care every legend may or may not deserve.

Some DND Lore for Your Adventures in the Forgotten Realms

This becomes a theme every time we do one of these, but do you remember Kaldheim? Yeah, the set from the beginning of this year. Well, before you get too deep into all the other possibilities that have come since then, join us as we share a few deck ideas from listeners and a couple of our own that are helmed by legends from Kaldheim. Sun’s Champion’s Inga Rune-Eyes: Stormy’s Cosima, God of the Voyage: Lolkopter’s Koma, Cosmos Serpent: Sanctuary1987’s Birgi, God of Storytelling: Andy’s Aegar, the Freezing Flame: Andy’s Svella, Ice Shaper: Kyle’s Firja, Judge of Valor: ------------------- Patreon:  YouTube:  Twitter: @legend_creature ------------------- Intro and outro music artists vary each episode, but comes courtesy of the sexy souls of the following artists: Home –  Protector 101 –  Dan Terminus –  Silver Richards – 

Kaldheim | Before You Go

In the most subjective of MTG formats, probably the most subjective task is that of maintaining a healthy and friendly playing environment. Yet it is the most important variable in making sure that we can all continue to play. Drawing from nearly a decade of playing commander, Andy guides a discussion of what has allowed the Legendary Creature – Podcast crew to maintain a group that still enjoys sitting down for a night of commander games. ------------------- Patreon:  YouTube:  Twitter: @legend_creature ------------------- Intro and outro music artists vary each episode, but comes courtesy of the sexy souls of the following artists: Home –  Protector 101 –  Dan Terminus –  Silver Richards – 

The Subtle Art of Healthy Play Groups

You’ve heard of min-maxing. We’re here to help you MID-max your deck. In this episode, we explore how you can find some wiggle room by questioning those “strictly better” staples of the game in order to make room for the juicier cards you want for your deck. We’ll take a dive into several of our decklists and show how the staples we have listed can be sacrificed for cheaper and functionally similar cards. As we do so, we’ll make room in the budget for either cards we really want to have in our collection or for savings. ------------------- Patreon:  YouTube:  Twitter: @legend_creature ------------------- Intro and outro music artists vary each episode, but comes courtesy of the sexy souls of the following artists: Home –  Protector 101 –  Dan Terminus –  Silver Richards – 

This Game is Too Expensive!

We’re here to therapize ourselves yet again. Perhaps we’re more like the old man yelling at the cloud. But if perchance WotC is listening, just know that you have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and we won't have it! Is that clear? You think you've merely engaged in a business deal. That is not the case. Truthfully, we're here to set up a conversation about color identity, and how it relates to commander. We get impassioned about how design breaks have a lasting legacy that can change the intent of the colors in this eternal format. We also try to make a call for safeguarding the colors for the most popular format. ------------------- Patreon:  YouTube:  Twitter: @legend_creature ------------------- Intro and outro music artists vary each episode, but comes courtesy of the sexy souls of the following artists: Home –  Protector 101 –  Dan Terminus –  Silver Richards – 

The Primal Forces of MTG Nature!

If we’re doing one product review, we may as well do a second. It seems WotC can’t leave us alone. So let’s dive into reviewing Commander 2021 as the tandem partner to Strixhaven. Come join us as Tiffany gives voice to all the listener ideas, thoughts, comments, and comedic takes for each legend from Commander 2021. Kyle and Andy will chip in a few thoughts along the way, but we can’t comment on their value. If you are interested in getting in on a future review, be sure to join us on Patreon.
