Attack for 20 Podcast

LONG hiatus. Back with a worlds recap with Daniel Rutkowski. Going over the preparation leading up to a semifinals finish at the first FAB World Championship. Shoutout to Equinox Gaming @EquinoxEXG on twitter and FABREC.gg for providing us a place to stay during the Worlds weekend. Great group of guys.

Shorter episode with Pheano Black. We talk about how its often advantageous to find a lane that is different from other people. Copying what the best players gets you so far, but to get to the next level you do have to discover your own path. Roast us in our reviews at www.ratethispodcast.com/a420podcast

I'm joined by Shane Martin, one of the founding members of Runaways, our newest FaB team looking to take over worlds by storm. LSS decided to shake up CC and Blitz with a couple of new bannings and unbannings. How will these changes tangibly affect your games? We discuss how pulseless Oldhim might still be poised to dominate the CC metagame, as well as what the Blitz bannings are doing to the format before Worlds. Big thanks to everyone who has reviewed our podcast, if you leave a review we will read it on a future episode. https://ratethispodcast.com/a420podcast

Pheano and Yuanji are joined by US Nationals Finalist Dan Rutkowski to discuss his crazy run, the CC meta, as well as a topic on how to calculate value when it's not obvious. Check out Dan's Twitter: @Disc_Golf_Dan Pheano is going to start streaming on youtube https://www.youtube.com/c/pheanoblack

No editing on this week's episode. I found out that my flight to Charlotte got moved up to 2pm instead of 7pm. We discuss the CC meta in the wake of the Nationals results from the first 2 weeks. What decks should you be prepared to see in Charlotte. In addition, we spend half the episode discussing a new limited topic - signaling. I know many people are getting frustrated over how random draft can be sometimes, and this might help you form a new perspective on how to take more control over your drafts.

We're skipping episode 10, which is what Michael and I recorded pre-Pro Tour, but never released. Pro Tour Lille Quarterfinalist Pheano Black joins us to talk about the trip in France, his tournament experience, and what we think about CC going into the next leg of the Nationals season.

Episode 9 talks about why Flesh and Blood might seem to be a Matchup Roulette at times, and things that you can do to either adjust your matchup vs certain heroes via sideboard cards, or times where you just aren't equipped to do so at all. Please leave a review at https://ratethispodcast.com/a420podcast. We will read the best reviews as we get them and it helps the discoverability of this podcast moving forward. Quick note, we tried recording separately, but Michael had a slight buzzing sound that you might hear in the background of his voice. We will work to record with better audio in the future moving forward.

We are very pleased to announce we have 2 guests on the show today. It's cohosts Michael Hamilton and Roger Bodee from The M-n-R Cast. We go over our experiences from drafting at Utrecht, as well as what we all think about the format and how it's evolving as well as some draft strategies you can take to your next draft event. The main topic of the episode is talking about whether forcing Fai is a reasonable strategy, but we also go into some interesting scenarios to discuss the directions that we would all go in various drafts. If you liked listening to Michael and Roger, they do a great show at M-n-R Cast. Here's a link to their Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/04Q4KVaTBiMIJhazOlbyIR?si=675f78aa67394315

Hey everyone, this episode is a little rough around the edges. We are currently in the process of scrambling to have everything ready for our Calling: Utrecht trip, so hope to see some listeners in EU if there are any of you out there haha. This episode is talking a bit about how our card evaluations have evolved over the course of the time that the format has been out, as well as giving our thoughts on how to draft Fai, and how to get some edges in drafting and gameplay when playing this hero.
