MTGCast Episode 113 - Getting to Know Gavin and Blowfly Infestation
"You read it somewhere else, but you heard it here first!"

We are brought to you by MTGMintCard.com and TrollAndToad.com!

This Week in Magic
Gavin fills us in on the awesomeness of being interviewed by BDM in his most recent article, "Getting to Know Gavin Verhey". Check out the new foil Brion Stoutarm promo that has been spotted. Aaron Nicastri wins the 2008 Australian National Championship with a Swans of Bryn Argoll + Seismic Assault deck!

Tom and Derek also discuss the PTQ in Madison. Derek gives us some of the hints on playing the Faeries mirror match and Tom happily reports that the BR Blowfly Infestation deck did better than expected, winning against a Faeries deck, completing CRUSHING Kithkin and wearing a home-made Blowfly Infestation shirt to the PTQ. Check out this picture of the "Blowfly Brothers" (John, Tom, Charlie, Will "Little Castro") who wanted some signed Blowfly Infestation's. Here is the decklist I ended up playing (largely due to the cards I had available!):
