In this episode, Valerio (probably better known as @golgariguy on Twitter) returns to the show to discuss the absolute state of monored. Although White has gotten a lot of community attention in the last few years, Red has quietly fallen behind the other colors and is lacking many of the basic tools needed to compete in Commander. With data, deckbuilding, and a healthy bit of theorycrafting, we dissect Red and offer some areas where it could be improved without breaking the color pie.

Decks discussed in this episode:
Monogreen Goodstuff
Monoblue Goodstuff
Monoblack Goodstuff
Monowhite Goodstuff

Monored Goodstuff (Nick)
Monored Goodstuff (Raphael)

Taking a slightly different approach to this spoiler season, as I'm skipping past the limited fodder legends and only doing a highlight reel of the most interesting commanders from both Lost Caverns of Ixalan AND the set's Commander precons. Let me know how you like the new format with a slightly more digestible length and an extremely high concentration of bangers!
