What do you do when a Travis Woo brew does the voodoo that a Woo brew do? That's one of the questions on everyone's minds this week as a card in Modern quintuples up overnight. Who's buying these cards be-tween $2 and $10? Is it a good buy at $10, anticipating $20? Should those of us with copies hold? This is be-coming a regular occurrence lately, and it's hard to know what to do, but the gang weighs in and substitutes a few better choices to make. Get ready to cringe as Corbin is grievously injured for your amusement, and cringe harder when he regales you with the tale of how he spent his recovery period. Hear more conspiracy theories about the meaning behind “Born of the Gods” and how multicol-ored Gods might be dealt with. Three quarters of the gang feels out of its depth discussing Magic Online prices, someone is still clicking cookies, and it was apparently not certain the cast would even be recorded this time. Strap in for a bumpy ride on your favorite Magic podcast that will have you asking, “How many weeks in a row are they going to mention Soldier of the Pantheon?”
