The Finisher

What if I told you that there is a Reddit thread on MagicTCG right now with over 200 comments of confused commenters asking why Ixalan has so many female pirate captains? Well, that seems like an innocent and not at all controversial topic to bring up with y’all, so why, pray tell, do you think there are so many fragile little lady pirate leaders and so few big strong men at the helm in Ixalan?

    You said on the cast that there really weren't any digital TCGs instead of CCGs, but you forgot Hex (https://www.hextcg.com/). An awesome card game that is what a modern MTGO should have been. No trading in Arena will mean we really don't own our digital objects the way we do in Hex or MTGO...and that will definitely give me pause to sink any significant dollars into Arena.
