The internet shudders, threatens to explode, but somehow remains intact as CommanderCast projects itself back into the datasphere with the season six premiere! In a riveting extended episode of emotional highs and lows, spiritual enlightenment, and some girlish giggles, I hold it down with my co-host Donovan and guests Carlos and Karston of TopAndGoProductions.

Jason reviews the highlights from this past week, including some flavorful tokens, some Helvault stories, results from SCG Providence and some other odds and ends.
Carlos scours Avacyn Restored for some potential Commander sleepers, then walks us through a budget version of Balthor the Defiled.
Avacyn Restored offers many new tools for the enterprising Commander brewer. Carlos begins by matching up Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded with an old favorite: Squee!
Carlos breaks from business as usual to tackle a Commander deck built for one vs. one. Read on to find out how Edric can dominate in this popular Commander variant.
Carlos continues the theme of expanding on other people’s Commander decks, this time bringing us some flashback action with Dralnu, Lich Lord.
The heaven and earth part to make way for a union of manly souls, and the fire burns bright across the internet, torching through your speakers! It’s the Call-InFerno! In another audience-participation episode of CommanderCast, Andy and Donovan are joined by some brave Commander players who jump onto the audioscape adventure though the annals of EDH for another variety episode that might result in excessive enlightenment! A blitz-format roundtable with five topics discussed for roughly fifteen minutes each.
This week’s podcast is full of rules bending, breaking, loopholing, and more. It’s CommanderCast S5E11 with guest host Scott Holmes! From the standard roster, Andy is joined by Byron and Sean for another installment in Audience Appreciation Month where we discuss topics generated by the audience.
It’s CommanderCast S5E10, which is another episode in the continuing audience appreciation month. To keep up appearances, we’ve asked Andrew Magrini to help spit fire into the Knowledge Pool of Commander players everywhere. Also joining me on the journey of discovery is Scott from the Eh Team and together the three of us discuss a variety of audience-provided topics, including the power of the internet, ways to handle dead card in hand, and more.
It’s the beginning of audience appreciation month and CommanderCast and to kick things off we have a very active member of the CommanderCast community, Thomas, lending us his silky-smooth New Zealand accent and wealth of Commander-related experience and knowledge. With Brionne and Byron filling out the rest of the team, we plunge into a show of entirely audience-generated topics and answer questions like “are Peek effects worthwhile?” and “why is Gaddock Teeg such a d!ck?” Unfortunately, even we can’t answer that last one.
Uriah of CMDRDecks has a submitted a sweet Goblins Wort deck for suggestions. Can Carlos find some ways to push the themes and make the deck go bigger?
Carlos leads us through his trademark commander deck-building process yet again, this time with Damia, Sage of Stone at the helm and capped off by a maddening finish!
As a rule Carlos isn’t a fan of countermagic, but this weeks he goes off the deep end with a deck that tries to counter all the spells! Check out Ertai, the Corrupted and his horde of Merfolk minions!
