Hello everyone and welcome to CommanderCast Episode 401! We finally made it out of the 400 celebration and we’re back to regularly scheduled programming. Huge thank you to all of the people who came out if it, but this week Mark and Adam are asking… To Tapped or not To Tapped? Whether or not should tapped lands be apart of the 99 and if so what criteria should they meet before being out loud in. But first, the guys are going to discuss what they would want from the new Double Masters set. The guys then finish the episode off by discussing a few oddball mechanics from the Future Sight set.
All that, plus our usual interstitial fodder, and all you have to do is Click the IB!!!
