Ramp is one of the most important aspects of Dice Masters, but how on earth are we going to do it in the new modern meta?

After a massive weekend of Dice Masters action, we round up events from the WizKids World Championships in Memphis, Tennessee. We speak to Dana Patton, aka General Nemesis, who not only scooped the US Nationals title but who was also a whisker away from becoming world champion. What were his preparation secrets, did he make the right call by playing the same team in both events and does he think Master Mold should be banned?
