Welcome to Lords of Limited, the podcast dedicated to getting you better at drafting in Magic: the Gathering. We’ve got a full week of drafting under our belt and are here to share what our winning (and losing) has taught us! The community seems split between two distinct factions in the world of Tarkir Dragonstorm and we look at both sides of the coin and how different approaches can lead you to success!
🎙️ What You’ll Get in This Episode:
-The Four Buckets of Decks in TDM
-Why Missing Land Drops is Devastating
-Mini-Dive on Boros Aggro
Even your two hosts are split on which camp they feel a strong preference for after one week, which leads to some great discussions and perspectives on how to draft the format. Whether you’ve been crushing or struggling, this episode has a lot to offer for drafting Tarkir Dragonstorm!
