This Week in Magic
German Nationals were this past week (Standard) and the winner was Olar Krzikalla and Derek analyzes the top 8 deck lists. We also have our first salvo of Shards of Alara cards and we all pick our favorites and some speculation on the different shards. The Orb of Insight is live for everyone and the hard working (and obsessive) souls at MTGS have already piled a ton of good info for you in this thread (did I mention "3" oozes!!). We also get some of the first thoughts of the PC / Xbox360 MTG game called "Duels of the Planeswalkers" and many people are excited for what seems a revisit of the original MTG game for PC called Shandalar. The September 1st banned and restricted list is up and has a major major change with Sensei's Divining Top being BANNED in Extended! Wah! Also, check out the cool promotional life counters being giving out for buying multiple cases of ALA.
User Corner
We answer some listener questions, including the draft simulator on MTG.com and some thoughts on the upcoming Extended season.

Emails, Comments and COMMENT CONTEST!
The winner this week of the Spirit of the Hearth and Goat Token is ... KeySam!
This is a new weekly contest where I announce a question on the podcast, you post a response (or story) on the MTGSalvation forum for replies to the episode and you can win a card hand-selected from Tom's large collection (and winner is announced on the next week's show).
This week's question is: Thoughts on the ALA cards so far OR do you collect on MTGO OR did anyone get their MTG start playing MTGO?
Prize of the week: Ashling, The Extenguisher + Dave Humphries HOF card!
