65 - Enter the Arena

This week on Skullcraic we're talking about Modern bans and Ravnica Allegiance! Krark-clan Ironworks has been banned in Modern, so we talk about the implications of that decision on the format. With the release of RNA we've been playing a lot of limited on Arena, so we dive into the format and give you our initial stats and impressions of how it's shaping up, as well as a look at the new Standard and what decks might be the next big thing! We're putting Tournament Reports and Deck of the Week on the backburner for the time being as there has been no announcement from WotC as to what exactly will be replacing PPTQs, so we're trying out a new segment called Enter the Arena, where we give some tips to new players who might be wanting to move from Magic Arena into paper play for the first time! This week we talk about what to expect in your first paper event, from holding your cards close to your chest to knowing that real life Magic is always best of three! If you have a question about some aspect of paper Magic, feel free to tweet or email us.
