Cowabunga Dudes! Need we say more. Pizza, Bovines from other dimensions and more Turtles than you can shake a shell at, everything a classic, good ol'fashioned MTG set needs. Nathan and Andy talk all things green and mean, and dive into one of their first ever fandoms as it is expressed on the cards.Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

We are staying a little longer on Lorwyn to discuss the approach to its deep, fantastical and often overly-complex lore. Which aspects of this Plane were carried over from the first time we were here and what was left to fade into legend and fable. Nathan breaks down the effectiveness of the newest mechanics and Andy becomes a hypocrite, reversing some long held opinions...Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

We jump head first into the long awaited adventures of Strixhaven...and then eventually Lowryn in this new offering from renowned MTG writer Seanan McGuire. As a new crop of Students are swept up in the politics of a world very few understand, how will this glimpse into the fan favourite Plane prepare us for the next stages of the overarching Magic story? Story Articles:https://magic.wizards.com/en/storyMusic by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

Everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and turned over 50% of all Magic into Universes Beyond...or something. Andy and Nathan take a look at Avatar the last Air Bender as it's depicted in MTG. Is this set's apparent step up in quality against other UB sets be enough to quell the grumbles of Magic purists or will the cycle of cynicism continue?Music by Michael Rawcliffe AudioBluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!

The Eclipse is fast approaching, so before we travel back to the equally quaint and cruel Plane of Lorwyn, we need to refamiliarize ourselves with a fantasy setting that is all at once a deeply complex and wonderfully simple. Andy and Nathan dive into why a Boggart isn't a Hobgoblin and the surprising origins of Kithkin.Music by Michael Rawcliffe Audio.Bluesky:mtflavouring.bsky.socialTwitter:MTF- @MTFlavouring,Andy- @AndyMannface,Nathan- @TheFoxintheMoon,Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqEmU7KIqU4Bcwn2RfcJ-yQMessage us directly!
