Hi there!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob takes us back to the invitational in which Antoine Ruel created Ranger of Eos - did you know that was an Invitational card when you were fetching up two Figures of Destiny?
Back in't'Day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/mi06
The three-part tournament report by Jeff "Ffej" Cunningham can be found here, here and here, and it's well-worth a read: http://www.starcitygames.com/magic/misc/12070-Get-Big-or-Die-Trying-The-2006-Magic-Invitational-Part-1.html http://www.starcitygames.com/magic/misc/12084-Get-Big-or-Die-Trying-The-2006-Magic-Invitational-Part-2.html http://www.starcitygames.com/magic/misc/12104-Get-Big-or-Die-Trying-The-2006-Magic-Invitational-Part-3.html
We have another crack-a-pack this week, before delving deep into the world of Time Spiral draft – this month's MTGO flashback draft format.
On the topic of the Confront the Unknown challenge, we've had a few entries since we recorded in which the number of clues has gone infinite... so we're now looking for the most interesting infinite combo! If you want to have a go, here's the challenge:
It's Shadows over Innistrad limited (SOI cards only, 40 card deck, no limit on number of copies of each card). You're on the play What's the biggest confront the Unknown you can case on turn 6? Bonus question (seeing as we've had a few infinite entries): what's the biggest confront you can by using only 1 copy of any given card, and without repeating the same action more than twice in a turn (i.e. without going infinite)
No Matt this week, so no Trash to Treasure, but Neil's word of the day is Lucky Charms.

Hi there!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob takes us way back when to 2005, when Gladiel Szleifer took down the first skins Pro Tour in Philadelphia. Ever wondered what the system was before Pro Club levels were even a thing? Well, here's your answer.
Back in't'Day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/szleifer-seizes-sunday
It's been a while since we did a crack-a-pack, so that kicks us off today, and we've also got a couple of the usual games: Common Bond and Top Eighto or Potato.
As usual, we have a Trash to Treasure for you, and Neil's word of the day is EDH (technically not a word, whatever).

Hi there!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob takes us all the way back to 2015, for another SCG event, which highlights a rapid change in creature based decks' approach to standard: from going tall to going wide. The best part of this event was the fact that names in the top 8 allowed for some pretty cringe-worthy wordplay.
Back in't'day: http://www.starcitygames.com/events/250415_cleveland.html
Of course the main (and only) talking point this week is the big announcement on OP changes made last week, followed by a swift retraction two days later. If you're confused about why everyone was telling you to #paythepros, we have (most of) the answers.
Announcement: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/ptsoi/2016-and-2017-premier-play-updates-announced-at-ptsoi-2016-04-24 Retraction: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/announcement-concerning-changes-pro-club-2016-04-26

Hi there!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob takes us back to 2007, when Guillaume Wafo-Tapa won a PT with his trademark blue-back control. Excuse the Japanese - we couldn't find coverage in any other language.
Back in't'Day: http://magic.wizards.com/ja/articles/archive/event-coverage/wafo-tapa-tops-them-all-2007-04-11
Seeing as we've had some time to digest the new Shadows over Innistrad cards, today's episode focuses on strategy, in both Constructed and Limited. What do you think will be tearing up the PT this weekend?
As usual, we have a Trash to Treasure for you: https://www.magicmadhouse.co.uk/magic-the-gathering-c1/nahiri-the-harbinger-p226830

Hi there!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob takes us back to the first Pro Tour to be held outside of the States: Pro Tour Paris, way back in April 1997. Ever heard that (in)famous Mike Long story? Well, this is where it happened.

As usual, we have a Trash to Treasure for you, and Neil's word of the day today is Stax. Thought it was to do with Smokestack? You might be in for a surprise...

This week, for the first time ever, Rob takes us Back in't'Day to a SCG invitational. You might find some of the cards look somewhat familiar...
http://www.starcitygames.com/events/060413_atlanta.html
The big news this week is that the Modern Banned and Restricted update might pave the way for a shiny new format, and we share our thoughts on the past, present and future of a divisive format.

Hi there!
This week, Rob takes us back to the original Innistrad with a standard Grand Prix that highlighted the domination of a certain blue-white deck. Does that sound familiar to you?
Back in't'day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/eventcoverage/gpslc12
Seeing as it's games week and Ravnica, we go through some Ravnica-themed Spectral Progressions before bringing back the game that's taking the airwaves by storm: Top Eighto or Potato. Now with theme music!
As usual, we have a Trash to Treasure for you, and Neil's word of the day today is Tim.

Hi there!
This week, Rob kicks us off with a rather suitable Ravnica-Guildpact Limited Grand Prix, hosted in the UK and won by a UK player. That leads us quite nicely into talking about the current flashback drafts on Magic Online, which are Ravnica block for another week and a half.
Back in't'day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/gpcar06
We also take some time to talk about Shadows over Innistrad previews: What do we like? What don't we like? And what have the fishermen ever done to you?

Hi there!
This week, Rob kicks us off with yet another Extended tournament, this time won by Gerard Fabiano back in 2008 (and piloting none other than Gerard's Verdict).

Now that Shadows over Innistrad previews are in full swing, we take the opportunity to see Oath of the Gatewatch off in style, open about a million packs (partly in the hope of sending something half decent to our Patreon subscribers).
That leads nicely into the advent of the greatest game of all-time, the brand new Top Eighto or Potato, before we answer a listener question about his first Pro Tour.
As usual, we have a Trash to Treasure for you, and Neil's word of the day today is Ponza.

Hi There!
It's been an exciting week for British Magic, what with three Grand-Prix top 8s across the globe. We're lucky enough to have Bologna champion Kayure Patel joining us in today's episode, whilst Neil is in American and losing his power pack (again).
Rather appropriately, this week's Back in't'Day talks about two events; the first instance of same-format Grand Prixs running on the same weekend.
http://magic.wizards.com/en/eventcoverage/gpver13 http://magic.wizards.com/en/eventcoverage/gprio13
Seeing as we have Kayure on the show, we spend a lot of time talking about Modern and his GP victory, but there's also an announcement from him that might change the way British Magic is perceived in years to come.

Unfortunately, we have to end this week on a sad note. Edward Hughes, a huge character in the British Magic scene who was loved and respected by all those who knew him, sadly and unexpectedly passed away last week. His family have set up a website with details on how you can take part in charitable fundraising in his memory, which you can find here:

Hi There!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob talks about when Raphael Levy won the second of two consecutive Grand Prixs with the exact same list. You'd have thought they'd see him coming by then. Once again, we take time to reminisce over the glory of the Extended format.
Back in't'day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/levy-does-it-again
It's games week this week, which brings you a couple of rounds of Spectral Progression and a few decks that have been put through the Nameless Inversion machine. Oh, and we also have some exciting news from the RPTQ...
Of course, we also have the usual Trash to Treasure, and Neil's Rigtionary covers draft (and where the word comes from).

Hi There!
In this week's Back in't'Day, Rob talks about GP Vancouver, where Cheon took his formerly-known-as-next-level blue deck all the way to the victory. This gives Matt a chance to reminisce over possibly his favourite format ever: Extended, circa 2008.
Back in't'day: http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/cheon-conquers-canada
Because it's the second round of RPTQs this weekend, we take the chance to actually talk some strategy. We go over the best decks in the format and what we're thinking of playing ourselves.
The Trash to Treasure is a card that Matt really advocates, and Neil's Rigtionary gives you a rare two-for-one treat: barn and hull.

Hi There!
There's been a Pro Tour this week, which gives us plenty to talk about, from the rise of super teams to the rise (again) of the Eldrazi. This all leads quite nicely on from Rob's Back in't'Day, which covers Pro Tour Paris 2011: the one where Caw Blade squawked its way into the format with style.

Hi there!
It's just Rob and Matteo this week, with Neil off in America for the Pro Tour and Matt AWOL. Rob's back in't'day extends nicely into a talk about how different countries have done over time, which leads rather nicely into a spectral progression that reveals some interesting numbers on global GP attendance.

Hi there!
Seeing as we've just had a new set release. it's crack-a-packs ahoy this week. And remember, all of the rares we open will go to one lucky Patreon subscriber! We also take a little time to talk about Standard ahead of this weekend's inaugural Magic Madhouse Pro Series event. Which deck feels like playing the greatest draft pool of all time?
As always, we also have the usual Back in't'Day and Trash to Treasure, and the brand new(ish) Rigtionary. Today's word: MUD (glorious MUD).

Hi there!
It's games week, which means we've got show for you that's jam-packed with all the silliness and sheer lack of high-brow content that you've come to know and love. Aside from the usual Back in't'Day and Trash to Treasure, we also run through a couple of rounds of Fact or Fiction, Common Bond and Entweet the Angels. And, of course, we end with another Rigtionary: today's word is Karoo.

Hi there!
It's the first limited week of the year, so we open the final Battle for Zendikar booster pack before Oath of the Gatewatch kicks in with full force. And remember, the contents of all our crackapacks will now go to a randomly chosen patreon: www.patreon.com/tbepodcast
We also talk briefly about Mirrodin draft, after listener Steve suggested we cover the Modern flashback drafts that are happening on MTGO throughout the year.
Finally, we talk about some interesting cards and rules interactions from Oath of the Gatewatch.

Happy new year!
A new year means a fresh start, so you might notice some changes in this week's episode. For one, that cheesy, annoyingly-catchy into theme has been replaced by an equally cheesy and face-palmingly awful different intro tune! We also introduce a new, hopefully recurring feature called The Rigtionary. It's Neil's first feature, and one you'll have to listen to the end to hear.
The main topic of discussion today is the recent banning of a number of judges over unofficial spoilers, a summary of which you can find here: http://apps.magicjudges.org/suspended.html
The big announcement of the week is that, after a good 16 months, we've finally taken to begging for your money via Patreon. If you're unfamiliar with Patreon, it's a crowdfunding platform similar to Kickstarter and IndieGoGo. However, instead of asking for a 1-off big-number payment, it asks you to pledge a small amount every month. It's completely optional, you can opt out at any time, and you can choose the amount you pledge, but even if it's just a single dollar a month we'd be eternally grateful. It might not mean much to you, but it'll mean a whole lot to us. Our page is here: www.patreon.com/tbepodcast

Now that we're all full of turkey and mince pies, and it's only a few more days until we have to go back to the daily grind, what better time to reflect on a year of highs and lows from the world of Magic?
We talk about our best and worst moments of 2015, look over our predictions from last year, make new predictions or 2016, and, most importantly, look at how well we did in Trash to Treasure across the year.

As a wise man named Noddy once said,
IIIIITTTTT'S CHRRRIIIIIIISSSSTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!
As is now an annual tradition, we bring on the king of cringe Rich Hagon, to join us for a festive MTG-themed quiz and to tell us some of the most eye-wateringly awkward MTG jokes you've ever laid your ears on. That's all after we open the secret Santa gifts we've been buying each other over the last few weeks.
If you're here to take part in the quiz and check out the picture round, head over to our website www.tbepodcast.com.

This week it's our final regular episode before the Christmas and end-of-year specials, and it's possibly the last Limited week of triple BFZ drafting.
Rob starts us off with a Back in't'day from 14 years ago, which you can find here: http://archive.wizards.com/sideboard/event.asp?event=GPLV01
He uses it as the base of a game of Common Bond – who'd have guessed that Force of Will was the most-played card in a format where Force of Will is legal?
In case you missed it, Helene Bergeot recently announced some changes to Premier Play coverage in 2016, which you can find here: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/magic-tournament-video-coverage-2016-2015-12-08
Seeing as Neil's all coveragy now, we spend some time discussing those.
As always, we have the usual Trash to Treasure from Matt, which you can buy here: http://www.magicmadhouse.co.uk/magic-the-gathering-c1/sakiko-mother-of-summer-p25049
It's a bit of a weird one this week, but as Matt describes it, also a doozy.

It's games week this week on the Blue Envelope Podcast, so we have another go at the as-yet-unnamed Twitter followers game. We also open the Way Back When machine and load up a few Spectral Progressions. It's been so long since we did that, nobody's actually that sure when the last time was.
As always, we also bring you the usual Back in't'Day from Rob: https://archive.wizards.com/sideboard/article.asp?x=PTCHICAGO9900/welcome

We're back to strategy week, but because there's a bit of a lull in formats we're talking about something a little more eternal (no pun intended) - Matt's fearless Magic inventory. If you're not familiar with the concept, read Sam Stoddard's primer from way back when: http://www.starcitygames.com/magic/misc/15107_Feature_Article_Creating_a_Fearless_Magical_Inventory.html
It's constructed strategy week, but Matteo doesn't like that there's no constructed equivalent to crack a pack... so this week he decides to change that, with the new feature 'crack a deck'. You can find the decklists we discuss right here: http://sales.starcitygames.com/deckdatabase/deckshow.php?event_ID=19&start_date=2015-11-21&end_date=2015-11-22ℴ_1=finish&limit=8&action=Show+Decks&t_num=1
As always, we also bring you the usual Back in't'Day from Rob and the also-usual Trash to Treasure from Matt, which you can buy over at Magic Madhouse.

It's games week again, and we're bringing you two brand new games this week - Rob's new Strength in Numbers game, and Matteo's as-yet-unnamed variant on the old favourite 'higher or lower'. Who's more popular on Twitter: Luis Scott-Vargas or his drinkable namesake, Laphroaig Scotch Whiskey? There's only one way to find out.

We're back to strategy week on the Blue Envelope Podcast, and we take the opportunity to take a deep dive into a topic sent in by friend of the show George Burrow (who recently qualified for his first PT - congrats!). The question was about keeping focused in high-stakes games, and how you stop yourself getting rattled when you can feel the tide turning against you.
We also crack a couple of packs of Battle for Zendikar and discuss what we'd first pick (you might be surprised to find it's not the rare this time, but a common we've dismissed in the past). And, of course, there's the usual Back in't'Day and Trash to Treasure, which you can buy over at Magic Madhouse.

It's games week this week, so we have another attempt at the freshly-name Accumulated Knowledge game. Rob's having none of it though, so it quickly descends into chaos. There's also a Flashback to an old favourite, Nameless Inversion (the translation game).
Of course, as always, we start with a Back in't'day and finish with a Trash to Treasure, which you can of course buy on Magic Madhouse.

It's constructed strategy week over here at the Blue Envelope Podcast. That gives the UK's most planeswalker-pointed person and our very own PPTQ end boss (Matt) a chance to talk about what's hot in Standard, what's not, and what you can do to try and beat the top decks like Abzan, Atarka Red and Dark Jeskai... sorry... Watery Mardu.
As always, Rob talks about back in't'day, and this time it's about Pro Tour Los Angeles 10 years ago (the one with the famous Force Spike - it's still impressive today). We also have a Trash to treasure which, unusually, is also brought to you by Rob.

Hi there!
Rob's off honeymooning this week, and without his sensible presence we take the opportunity to try out a brand new game (as yet unnamed). If you like it and can think of a great name for it, why not let us know? Any game that involves the word Takklemaggot is a winner in our book.
Seeing as Rob's not here, Neil takes us Back in't'day this week to Pro Tour Kobe 2006, won by a 17-year old relative newcomer. Matt, as usual, wraps up with a Trash to Treasure.

Hi there!
We're all back this week, and it's Limited strategy week. We take a chance to talk about the oft-misunderstood Limited mana curve, and what it means to have an aggressive or control deck in Limited. If you want to read Matteo's related article on the subject, you can find it over on Magic Madhouse.
Of course, as always, we have the usual Back in't'Day along with Matt's Trash to Treasure as well.

Hi there!
There's a new set being pre-released TOMORROW, and so Matteo takes the opportunity to play a Battle for Zendikar-themed game. We also have a game based on Entweet the Angels, but with more Kanye West.
As always check out our sponsors Magic Madhouse, and make sure you're following us on Facebook and Twitter for all the latest updates. You should also follow our YouTube channel, with more videos to come!
