Hot or Cold: Introducing Blackjack Theory | Episode 441



Welcome to Lords of Limited, the podcast dedicated to getting you better at drafting in Magic: the Gathering. This week, we begin by outlining the Big Red decks in EOE, what makes them so strong and the package of commons that lets you ramp out a Nebula Dragon on turn 5! Then, we get into the main topic of a new way to evaluate deck strength that we’re calling Blackjack Theory. We outline this process and put it into practice for a few different decks. We also discuss some broader thoughts about staying open in this format and drafting high quality cards inspired by a conversation from the jointexploration twitch stream and members of Team Sanctum of All.



🎙️ What You’ll Get in This Episode:

-How to Draft Big Red in EOE

-Blackjack Theory Introduced

-Just Draft the Good Cards inspired by Team Sanctum

-And more!
