DC 77 – Metagaming, The Competitive Rogue, Early Scars
Podcast: Download (19.7MB)
Show 77 is ready to roll, and it’s the last show of series 6.
To kick off, I look at the art of metagaming. I explain what a metagame is, and provide some tips on how to metagame successfully.
After that is a look at playing a rogue deck competitively. It takes more than just having a good idea or relying on the surprise factor!
Finally, I take a look at some Scars of Mirrodin information that has been leaking out of the San Diego Comic Con taking place this weekend.
As always your feedback is muchly appreciated at show@deckconstruct.com, and don’t forget to check out the DC forums, too!
You’ll also find DC on the social side of the internet as always at Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Flickr.
Thanks for listening, thanks for subscribing if you do so, and thanks for just generally interacting with DeckConstruct! The podcast will return on Friday, September 3rd 2010 with series 7 and, I guess, a lot of artifacts to look forward to in the new set!

Fella, your podcasts are pretty good but you’ve got to stop saying “you know” so much, it’s nearly 4 times every sentence! :D
Keep it up with the podcast though!
I totally agree, it’s something I have to work on. :)
The weird thing is I don’t say it so much in normal conversation and don’t notice it much when editing. Then when I listen back to the podcast (usually after it goes online), I hear loads of “you know”s and cringe.
*slaps wrist*
Hehe, aside from that the podcasts are good, really appreciate the newcomer podcast from a few weeks back.
Great end-of-the-season show, Alex. Wishing you a pleasant vacation and hope to see (actually hear) you back in full force this September!
