One Among the Fence

Good content with questionable production

I’m happy that there’s a podcast with high quality competitive content but the production quality on the episodes I’ve heard was pretty distracting. I just found the podcast but the episode I listened to had random breathing into a mic during a lot of it and somebody just clicking intermittently. It would be great to have a bit tighter mic control because the background noise is distracting

I enjoy listening to this podcast because of Mengu and Javier. They give good info and keeps you up to date on the metas and what’s new with the game in general. If you can get over the Low T Beta Aussie, you will really enjoy the show!
KennyMerrill

Great insight

I just listened to my first episode (5), and already being a fan of Mengu and Javier, having those two minds combined with Anthony Lee’s made for a great listen. Big fan, looking forward to Wednesdays.

A much needed podcast for competitive Magic

Right now there is lack of podcasts that focuses on competitive Magic. This podcasts fills that need and has a great trio of pro players offering their insight.

Great podcast for competitive players

Fills the hole that the Pro Points podcast left. Great stuff so far!
