MTGCast Episode 89 - What do you mean they want a union?
"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
In response to the change in PT prize structure, Raphael Levy started a forum called the MTG Players Union. Gavin and Derek talk more in depth about what a Pro Tour means to a CCG and if this really impacts magic as a whole. Mark Tedin and Anson Maddocks will be signing cards at the upcoming GP Vancouver. New big banner ads have appeared on Magicthegathering.com, rumors abound of larger financial concerns.

User Corner
Planar_Guide posts how the PT prize changes are making him consider a redirection towards judging. Sieg101 lets Tom know that Gifts Given can be found for ~$20. Some awesome altered art by Billythefridge. And drmungmung wonders why we can't buy a real-life plushy doll from the Black Vise / Stuffy Doll cards!

Stump the Chump
It's back and we have a two-part Morningtide question, watch out Gavin!
