Common Ground 86: Who's The Beatdown? Is it Spider-Man??

Common Ground MtG ·

2025/07/31

Welcome back Pauper fam! This week Cameron leads us into a Magic game-theory discussion centered around the classic article "Who's The Beatdown" by Mike Flores. For an article that's over 25 years old it's amazing how relevant these concepts are in modern Magic and especially in Pauper. Then he conversation gets derailed by the inevitable opinions about the Spider-Man spoilers that have begun to surface. Let's hope this doesn't take away the spotlight from how many sweet Edge of Eternities ca...
