Callum rejoins the crew and is immediately wrong - about Black Lotus, of all the cards. Something he turns out to actually have been right about is the return of everyone's favourite, most difficult-to-pilot archetype: 17-colour Midrange Pile. Turns out Rakshasa's Bargain is a real and showing up in playsets across Legacy now. Also, get your bodies ready for the GOLDEN TICKET for the next Impact Returns in Spain in July! Everyday Eternal has picked up one of those and we'll be giving it away to one of you soon! What it do? FREE ACCESS TO ALL EVENTS at Impact Returns throughout the weekend. The more you suck, the higher the value of the ticket, so maybe we should give it away to the worst player we can find; but, as it turns out hosts aren't eligible for it ¯_(ツ)_/¯Seriously though, Impact Returns is one of the coolest, smoothest and beloved Legacy events of the year, and makes for the perfect start to a vacation in Spain/Portugal. Hit is up for ANY information you might need - it's worth it! :-)00:00:00 British Linguistic Depravity00:11:00 Callum's Late Takes On The Bans00:33:30 These Are Your New Toys!01:04:30 IMPACT Returns, returns!01:21:30 THE GOLDEN TICKET GIVEAWAY https://impactreturns.com/https://unityleague.gg/Thank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEAmnesty International Stands Firm in Support of Legacy Format Bans: A Call for Justice Against Mycospawn and Troll of Khazad-dûmMarch 31, 2025 – London, UK – In a bold and unprecedented move, Amnesty International has thrown its full support behind the recent ban of Sowing Mycospawn and Troll of Khazad-dûm from the Legacy format of Magic: The Gathering. While the organization has long championed the rights of prisoners and the abolition of unjust detention, today, Amnesty makes an exception: we stand united in the belief that these two cards deserve to be locked away in the deepest dungeons of the Magic multiverse, never to see the light of competitive play again.The decision to ban Sowing Mycospawn and Troll of Khazad-dûm was not made lightly, but with a sense of justice that resonates deeply with our core values. These cards, once staples of dominance in the Legacy format, have perpetuated toxic gameplay that undermines the integrity of the game. The endless cycles of resource recursion, unfair board states, and the total disregard for strategic diversity have only served to imprison players in a cycle of frustration. For far too long, these cards have silenced the voice of fair play and decency in Magic: The Gathering.Amnesty International believes that Sowing Mycospawn and Troll of Khazad-dûm represent an insidious form of "cruel and unusual punishment" for players who strive for fairness and challenge. No card, no matter how powerful, should be allowed to perpetuate such an oppressive reign over the creativity and joy that defines the Magic community. These cards have been nothing short of a tyrannical force, suffocating the fun and strategy that make the Legacy format a beloved playground for players worldwide.While our advocacy for human rights remains unwavering, we recognize the need to confront all forms of oppression – even when it comes in the form of card games. Let this serve as a warning to other cards that may follow: Amnesty International will not stand idly by while any force, real or imaginary, seeks to rob players of their freedom to enjoy the game in its purest form. We urge Wizards of the Coast to continue to exercise their power to ban cards that stifle creativity, fairness, and joy within the Magic: The Gathering community.Mycospawn and Troll of Khazad-dûm are now sentenced to the deepest dungeons of Magic history. May they rot there, forgotten, as a reminder that no card is above the law of fun.Contact:Amnesty International Press [email protected]+44 20 7413 550000:00:00 The Man, The Myth, The Legend 00:06:00 Buden Brawl Hamburg 202500:14:00 THEY BANNED IT!https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/banned-and-restricted-announcement-march-31-2025Thank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

I feel like for the last ~18 months, Legacy has near-constantly been in a state of suspense, anxiously anticipating the next big change. And I can't be alone in disliking it. I enjoy it when not just "the current meta" but the format as a whole settles, and actually allows for people to get deeper into their decks and find their place in the format. It's what initially "entrenched" me into the format, and what I think Magic as a whole could really use. Guess what I'm looking for is a break from the constant hype, change and even just anticipation of the next big thing that might just be around the corner. Note that I don't mean that in a sense of wanting bans to slow down; if anything, quite the opposite. I've always enjoyed Legacy for being somewhat decoupled from the fast pace of what Standard used to be. As such, we're trying to be the change we wanna see, and dive into the depths of not just the format but the meta as a whole to establish what's going on. Yeah, things might surely change again over the course of this year, but I really do enjoy taking a conscious step back and taking a good look at the status quo. Everyone's different, but I feel we haven't done that enough on a greater scale. Less change and anticipation, more admiration!00:00:00 Kai Loves Star Wars Episode II00:10:30 4 Seasons Legacy Review00:29:30 The State of Legacy00:40:00 Legacy Power Ranking / Tier Listhttps://mtgtop8.com/event?e=65665&f=LEhttps://mtgtop8.com/event?e=65900&f=LEThank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

Spurred on by a recent chat on the Eternal Durdles podcast, the boys dive headfirst into the age-old lament: where have all the "real" Control decks gone in Legacy? And, more importantly—what makes one in the first place?Armed with ancient wisdom (a.k.a. some 2007 musings from venerable sage Adrian Sullivan), we attempt to unravel the mysteries of Control, why it’s been all but exiled from Legacy, and whether we’re all (read: not Julian) just hopelessly nostalgic for a bygone era—or, you know, actually onto something.00:00:00 AI Takes Over00:11:00 Strategic Archetype vs Role00:17:25 Adrian Sullivan: The Strategic Moment, 200700:40:30 WTF is going on with Control?!00:53:00 Control Can't Compete01:21:30 The Biggest Problem Nobody Talks Abouthttps://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/whos-the-beatdown/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A6rU9pA3gwhttps://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/sullivan-library-distinctions-in-strategic-archetypes/https://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/sullivan-library-the-strategic-moment/https://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/sullivan-library-why-midrange-rules-todays-standard/Thank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

With Callum busy bringing metal to rural German villages, Kai and Julian invited BOTH Eternal Weekend North American champions to the show. By that, we mean Kai was doing all the scheduling work while Julian was kitesurfing in Egypt.
Join us as Max Gilmore and Kelvin Wallace share their thoughts about their deck choices and states of the two formats. One of them in particular straight-up thinks his team broke a format in half despite not casting Psychig Frog or Brainstorm - and why he won the tournaments out of spite after being disrespected.

One of our all-time most beloved episodes was a review of the origins of the Legacy format and the first seven bans required to keep it stable (and Survival of the Fittest).Today we continue our History Channel...series? I don't make the rules, so I assume two episodes on the same topic almost half a decade apart constitute a series. Join us as we look back at how Wizards of the Coast's handling of the format evolved, as we share their reasonings and our own stories from around the time. Oh, and Kai got married, like the madman he is.00:00:00 The First 7 Bans00:10:50 Treasure Cruise00:26:30 Dig Through Time00:48:00 Sensei's Diving Top 01:07:00 Deathrite Shaman & Gitaxian Probe01:24:00 Wrenn and Six01:38:40 Underworld Breachhttps://everyday-eternal.com/74-history-channel-the-first-7-legacy-banshttps://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Banned_and_restricted_cards/TimelineThank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

What the Dauphiné Libéré is to the Tour de France, the Anzid Eternal Showdown is to Eternal Weekend now, I guess? Either way, Magic Online recently hosted the preparation event for the upcoming big Legacy tournaments across the globe, and we're here to review the results.
Kai also reports back from his boot camp piloting the most difficult deck in the format, and whether he's ready to rock it in Prague next month.
Oh, and someone's getting married. Can you guess who?

Another giant Legacy event in the books, and of course Kai used to go to kindergarten with the winner, or something. We've given up on finding any halfway decent Legacy player in Japan whom Kai isn't associated with in one way or another. I'm genuinely not sure whether this is a running gag or actually true - but we're all here for it either way.Get a great look back at what went down in the biggest Legacy tournament in the world this year thus far - and find out which "hardest deck in the format" Kai is gonna rock at EW Europe, and why literally nobody in the Discord was able to guess it.

Almost 400 people gathered in Italy for Europe's largest Legacy tournament series, the 4Seasons in Bologna. Even more importantly, this iteration also featured the finals of the European Legacy Masters. Following 5k+ players grinding it out all across the continent for an entire season, 110 qualified players gathered in the Emilia-Romagna capital to crown their champion. Kai was on the ground to witness it all and do commentary, while also casually Top8'ing the Team event playing Vintage.

As the crew finds out that Kai has been living under a rock, both he and Callum completely shock Julian with revelations about things neither of them has ever done. Callum also announces which type of tournament Wizards of the Coast will surely kill next year, and why it's probably for the better - unless they find a different way to run it.In the second half of the show, we look into specifically two cards that are tearing up the format right now, and find out why Kai has to paint a City's Blessing token as soon as possible!00:00:00 Why the UK will NEVER sponsor us00:11:30 Skipping The Ban Talk00:12:30 The Ban Talk 00:17:00 Splitting Away $50k 00:28:00 Japan NEVER splits00:36:30 WotC Will Kill Secret Lair Showdowns00:46:30 ESPER ZOO Wins A Challenge!00:56:30 Even Japan Plays ZOO now! https://docs.google.com/document/d/19tsoQ_ZzQvmfHZKzB0qVcD1F2WQRJ1uV4HP7zIc7oHI/edithttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1EFmA1gfDnYf_Audmr1DCzaeAqi51QUzlGmlDgSCQAeQ/edithttps://x.com/pastimesonline/status/1821296645881131108https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QTb4Ewtztnf_KYOFkrCBfDlBwcGaTtNiFUfTeWvaBvw/edithttps://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/6554389https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/6555910https://mtgtop8.com/event?e=58315&d=636084&f=LEThank you for tuning in,Until next time!Julian

Skip the first 25 minutes in case you already know, as we decipher the arcane scrolls of wisdom. In the second half of the show, we get ready for the annual Modern Horizons shakeup, reviewing a bunch of good, bad or, as Callum puts it, an utterly unplayable card Julian brought to class. Turns out one of those cards is looking MUCH better than the Twitterverse has given it credit for thus far, and Callum expects it to become a 4-of staple in the most played deck.Also, Julian listens to a podcast with sharktooth-necklace-wearing hosts...or so he thought.00:00:00 Julian Thinks Kai is Desperate00:13:30 The Most Played Deck w/ the Highest Winrate ?!00:27:20 Kai's MH3 Spoiler Picks 00:34:10 Callum's Picks00:49:30 Julian's Picks01:15:30 This Card is completely Overlooked!
