"You read it somewhere else, but you heard it here first!"

We are brought to you by MTGMintCard.com and TrollAndToad.com!

This Week in Magic
Still in that post-Morningtide lull. The live public beta of MTGO III has come and gone on 1/31/08 and now we see that the countdown to the release of MTGO III is at 11 days and paused again. Read this blog post by gamer_zero for some more information. Also, Tom wonders about how the 1 week down time will affect players, especially in this Extended season. The March 2008 FNM promo has been revealed, Eternal Witness!

User Corner
It's our first live show and we answer some questions from the live listeners. How was Gavin's release tourney experience? What are some strategies for LLM drafting? Extended combo decks and more!

MTGCast News
Well, it's our first live show and Derek is in a car accident. Derek is fine, but this show is just Gavin and Tom. Hopefully everything will be back to normal for next week, thanks for your kind wishes.

Emails, Comments and COMMENT CONTEST!
The winner this week of the 1/1 Creature Prize Pack is ... RogueLeviathan!

This is a new weekly contest where I announce a question on the podcast, you post a response (or story) on the MTGSalvation forum for replies to the episode and you can win a card hand-selected from Tom's large collection (and winner is announced on the next week's show).

We had 75+ comments this week, so Tom will give away an Italian Legends Mirror Universe to a randomly-selected entry of people who posted a comment for episode 89 or 90, so you can still get a chance to win!

This week's question is: Your favorite artifact of all time!
Prize of the week: Titania's Song (antiquities), Copy Artifact (revised) and Gleemax!

Next live episode recording time
