In this episode, we’re joined by YouTube creator and goblin aficionado Goblin Ringleader for a deep dive into the history of lands in Magic: The Gathering — from the OG Duals and Painlands to MDFCs, Triomes, and beyond. We also speculate on what Edge of Eternities (EoE) might bring to Constructed formats and how it could shake up the mana base landscape.

We cover iconic land cycles, talk mana base design, and share listener favorites — from Shock Lands and Scry Lands to some spicier picks. Plus: Frankie’s EoE hype list, Jack’s meta notes, and a deck quiz that’ll test your land IQ.
