Description: This week's episode is much more serious than you might be used to. There's one Limited tournament, but everything else involves the changes to the Magic Pro League or the War of the Spark Mythic Edition mess. Gerry Thompson left, Yuuya Watanabe got removed, and we all know Owen Turtenwald was ghosted. Autumn Burchett had already been brought in, but there were still two holes to fill! Turns out it's Jessica Estephan and Savjz, which leads to all kinds of questions about how to get into the MPL and the overall purpose of the MPL.
