Once more, we try and clear the mountains of Emails that reach us from our lovely listeners. We answer such burning questions as: What deck would we play if we could only play 1 deck for the next 5 years, a quick look at an Esper Mentor list, and ourselves “What would a cross between the films Old Boy, The Naked Gun and a crush of Eldrazi look like?”

Hi All – I’ve been very lax and not posted another monster legal opinion from our legal friend, Corentin. Here it is, in all its unedited glory!
My opinion was about the English common law, and I did not know at that time whether it was different from the US common law when it came to that area of torts, contracts and equity.
I had opened my opinion with the following:
As an introductory point I would like to stress that this statement is not a contract on its own since no one could have given consideration to make it binding, and that the doctrine of estoppel only apply for a variation of contract and will not be applicable in this case.
Well I was informed that in many jurisdictions of the United States, promissory estoppel is indeed an alternative to consideration as a basis for enforcing a promise. It is also sometimes called detrimental reliance.
A promise which the promisor should reasonably expect to induce action or forbearance of a definite and substantial character on the part of the promisee and which does induce such action or forbearance is binding if injustice can be avoided only by enforcement of the promise.
Article 18
1. A consumer may bring proceedings against the other party to a contract either in the courts of the Member State in which that party is domiciled or, regardless of the domicile of the other party, in the courts for the place where the consumer is domiciled.
First,
Article 2
Universal application
Any law specified by this Regulation shall be applied whether or
not it is the law of a Member State.
Article 4
Applicable law in the absence of choice
1. To the extent that the law applicable to the contract has not
been chosen in accordance with Article 3 and without prejudice
to Articles 5 to 8, the law governing the contract shall be
determined as follows:
Article 6
Consumer contracts
1. Without prejudice to Articles 5 and 7, a contract concluded
by a natural person for a purpose which can be regarded as being
outside his trade or profession (the consumer) with another
person acting in the exercise of his trade or profession (the
professional) shall be governed by the law of the country where
the consumer has his habitual residence, provided that the
professional:(a) pursues his commercial or professional activities in the
country where the consumer has his habitual residence, or
(b) by any means, directs such activities to that country or to
several countries including that country,and the contract falls within the scope of such activities
Again, we look at REGULATION (EU) No 1215/2012 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 12 December 2012. You are still a consumer for the purpose of the text, so you can sue Wizard in England.
We turn to REGULATION (EC) No 864/2007 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 11 July 2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations (Rome II)
Article 4
General rule
1. Unless otherwise provided for in this Regulation, the law
applicable to a non-contractual obligation arising out of a
tort/delict shall be the law of the country in which the damage
occurs irrespective of the country in which the event giving rise
to the damage occurred and irrespective of the country or coun-
tries in which the indirect consequences of that event occur.
Today we have a chat with Southern Legacy Allstar Tom Kellock, who was the token Englishman at this years BoM Madrid top8! We have some lands chat, as well as discussing some plays, how he perceives the Eldrazi entrance to the format, and how mishras factory attacks people in “real life”. Enjoy!

More Show Notes to follow…
Hello! StuP here.
A few listeners have been in contact regarding the Esper Mentor list I mentioned on Episode 75 (or was it 76?). Credit goes to Patrick Chapin, Tom Martell and Matt Sperling who derived the original list.
Their list originally played a Misty Rainforest over the second Marsh Flats and
I got the list below that Rich Shay played on an MTGO daily. Chapin himself mentioned the fetchland swap on his Top Level Podcast.
The other swap I made is cutting the Misdirection in the board for another Cabal Therapy. I love the synergy of Therapy, Probe and Mentor, and I couldn’t really visualise the matches where I’d board in the Misdirection (maybe I should go back and listen to Chapin’s reasoning for it’s inclusion).
The deck is a lot of fun to play! Much more fun in fact than I’ve found with other good stuff decks like Deathblade. The sheer quantity of card draw is completely bonkers, and against everything apart from Lands or chalice decks, I think you’ve got a good chance of being competitive in game 1. Even against storm, I was able to disrupt them enough to get a mentor on the table and apply pressure. Admittedly this is a very small sample size though (1 match!).
Here is the list as I played it:
Lands (20)
4 Polluted Delta
4 Flooded Strand
2 Marsh Flats
1 Underground Sea
2 Tundra
1 Scrubland
1 Tropical Island
1 Plains
1 Swamp
2 Island
1 Karakas
Creatures (11)
4 Deathrite Shaman
4 Monastery Mentor
2 Snapcaster Mage
1 Tasigur, The Golden Fang
Instants (14)
4 Brainstorm
4 Swords To Plowshares
4 Force of Will
2 Spell Pierce
Sorceries (12)
4 Ponder
3 Gitaxian Probe
2 Cabal Therapy
1 Council’s Judgement
2 Painful Truths
Planeswalkers (3)
3 Jace, the Mind Sculptor
Sideboard (15)
3 Abrupt Decay
2 Cabal Therapy
1 Supreme Verdict
1 Notion Thief
1 Surgical Extraction
1 Containment Priest
1 Painful Truths
1 Vendilion Clique
1 Zealous Persecution
1 Flusterstorm
1 Engineered Explosives
1 Council’s Judgement
I hated the main deck Tasigur as I found it was weak to karakas and didn’t really give me any value. There were often times where my opponent would just let me have a useless spell pierce, or another card of very little consequence in the situation. We’ve been saying it on the podcast for a while that we don’t like Tasigur for Legacy, and I think this has finally cemented it for me. I would recommend swapping him out for a Gurmag Angler. Admittedly, I haven’t tested this, but I think it seems reasonable. I’ll see if the extra mana to delve is significant.
Main deck, the only other change I might consider is trimming one of the Painful Truths. I loved the card, and it was pretty good at drawing lots of gas, but I feel that three copies in the 75 may be one too many.
In the sideboard, the Notion Thief is probably a bit too cute. I’d probably recommend another Containment priest or Flusterstorm. You should be out-drawing most decks in the format, and passing the turn with four mana up, trying to “get” your opponent is probably quite optimistic. If you do manage it, let us know on the podcast 😉

After receiving what we can only describe as an unprecedented amount of emails about doing a pox deck tech, we finally relent and delve into the world of old school, mono black control, seeing what cards it can use, and seeing what place it has in todays fast-paced, er… blue meta :).

Hi guys. We take some time to tackle the mounting number of Emails we received over the last week, debate the possibility of doing magic seminars, wonder why we got so many requests for a pox deck tech (blatantly going to do one soon :D), and mull over the meta change that will happen as a result of the recent banning/unbannings.

Hello again! Another set comes rumbling around, and we try to determine which cards could be legacy playable. Only this time, we use the science! We also take a look at our last set review to see how accurate we were, and if any cards slipped us by…

In this episode (which we hysterically think is episode 69…) we answer a few more listeners Emails, and take a look at another card terrorising the top tables – Sensei’s Divining Top. We look at the decks it’s found in, top “tricks” and how to play against this powerful card.

So thanks everyone for your patience as we had to sort out a couple of very special episodes that we have lined up for you. We recently took part in the MTGuk eternal weekend, and on the Saturday we took the time to do some gonzo reporting. Because it was the vintage day (we both wanted to play the legacy day) the discussions lent themselves towards a more general magic chat, but there we some interesting topics that crept up along the way. So be prepared as we talk to some old friends and new about vintage, legacy, growing an eternal community, altering cards, vending them, and an all time record of numbers of monsters of the week! Thanks to everyone who participated in part 1 – Tu Nguyen, Gaz Hirst, Paul McGleish, Mark Aylett and James Griffin.

After nearly a month of no Legacy Breakfast (Sorry!), we return!
Who doesn’t love a 2 for 1? We here at Legacy Breakfast do, and so we bring you another iconic card, lightning bolt, and also a run down on a deck that plays around 20 of them, burn! So whether you’re new to the format and people are recommending burn to you, or are a grizzled veteran who needs some new tips on making this old archetype work, this is the episode for you!

In todays episode we pay homage to our glorious new overlords government and also look at a recent tournament we played in at Fanboy3. Card choices and matchup analysis abound! Also, we review some of our previous choices of cards to watch from new sets, and see where we were right and where we were wrong, and what types of cards we could look out for in the future.

Well hello there! Me and Stu get together again and discuss storm. We look at popularly represented archetypes (not to mention some, er…. less well represented ones) and see the history of them, as well as their philosophy, construction, how to play them, what they are susceptible to, and some general hints and tips on how to pilot. WUB WUB.

After finally being reunited, our intrepid pair of Stus have a look at the meta from the first Japanese legacy Grand Prix. We have a run down of the decks represented on day 2 (SPOILER – it was quite, quite blue…) and look at the specifics of the Top8 deck lists. And we don’t butcher any Japanese names at all. Nosiree!

*SpecialBonusFun Episode!*
Despite posts saying that we were on a break… Stu P. takes some time out of his globe-trotting millionaire playboy lifestyle, and joins us from Thailand to discuss our recent tournaments and also to talk about the recent Invitational
results.
*We didn’t mention it on the show, but the Top8 we talk about is just the legacy decks played by the Top8 competitors. The Invitational format is both standard and legacy, so you needed the best combined record to make Top8, which was then played out using their standard decks.

Hello! We don’t have an episode this week- or for the next couple of weeks sadly…
StuP is off on his holidays so the show is taking a little break…
We’ll be back soon! Have fun watching #PTDTK!
