We talked about the mana value composition of a spellslinger deck, now let's get into thinking about the deck's posture.

Often times we can craft decks and we let the archetype and cards dictate whether we are aggressively playing cards or waiting for the right moment to strike. Andy explores how we can be more deliberate with the choice and gets into examples of how spellslinger can be constructed to aggressively play its cards, rather than waiting for specific moments.

Andy gave the overview of low mana value spellslinger last episode. Let's get into the high mana value.

The distinction may be lost on some and obvious to others, but the capacity of low mana value and high mana value spellslinger decks is worth noting. Andy takes a dive into the tools, textures, and payoffs that can serve as the reason for sitting in the School of High Mana Value.

In classic LCP fashion, let's add nuance to the spellslinger archetype.

With years of casting spells and an upcoming visit Strixhaven scheduled, Andy sets up the spellslinger series by delineating two schools of spellslinger decks: the low mana value and the high mana value.

With the notion in mind of the two strategies functioning like their own schools of the archetype, Andy plumbs the theoretical depths of why low mana value spellslinger decks require their own unique approach and assessment of valuable tools.

We've been showcasing enchantment ideas or the whole month. Your turn.

Kyle and Andy with the help of Nick from Commander Theory have been exploring what is possible with enchantments over the last three episodes and looking at how the thematic concepts have expanded in design scope and play possibilities. Now we turn to the Patreon supporting listeners for their deck ideas to see how you've been using enchantments to play EDH.

Like any EDH archetype, tools and resources for enchantress have changed with the expansion of the game. Let's explore that.

Kyle brings Andy into an exploration of what cards existed in the enchantress realm a la 2018--a time when commander was starting to get some dedicated tools designed for the archetype and that were generally expanding the type's capabilities. He then compares that against what is surfacing to the top on EDHREC today.

Kyle shares a few illustrating deck concepts for both the 2018 era and what can be done now.

Last episode we explored how we can be thoughtful about applying an archetype to our enchantment decks, let's now get into thinking directly about those win conditions.

Nick of Commander Theory fame joins to take a deep-dive look into a variety of ways beyond simple aggro that we might direct our enchantress themed decks towards a deliberate win. From animating our enchantments to combos and Voltron, he walks Kyle and Andy through a set of pros and cons with illustrative examples along the way.

Turns out that despite Kyle's frequent love and mention of enchantments, he hasn't done an episode on them in a while.

With the length of the podcast's history, Kyle takes Andy back to some ideas discussed in 2018 and opens up discussion about the seismic changes to how the card type can be played in commander. Andy opens the analogy of liminal spaces in Magic and the two take a look at how different enchantment archetypes may lead us to create liminal spaces in our brews.
