This Week in Magic
Tom, Adam, Chris, Robert and Jack bring you a Jared-from-Subway-esque podcasting marathon this week. A huge congratulations to Conley for his Top 8 finish and Gerry Thompson for winning GP Nashville. Keep an eye out for Chris and Robert's new podcast series on MTGCast with interviews of a slew of big names in MTG. We have the MTGO event calendar for November and December along with the announcement of Momir Basic "pre-con" decks for use in the new Momir basic daily events. New TCGPlayer Wizard World Series event announced for New Orleans Comic Con on January 28-30, 2011. The new Lilianna Vess DoTP promo for the PS3 launch looks pretty nice (from the SCG Facebook profile). And now to the meat, the full spoiler list for Masters Edition IV is readily viewable on Gatherer (//gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?page=0&set=[%22Masters%20Edition%20IV%22">"]full list) and there is some crazy stuff here, also leads to the discussion that Library of Alexandria is in the set and not on the update Classic B&R list. Tom, and likely Chris, are pumped to be invited to a media event from Sony Online Entertainment to check out more about the upcoming MTG: Tactics game for PC / PS3.
What Have We Been Playing?
Tom is lovin' some mono-white life gain in Standard. Chris has hit some rough times in M11 / SoM draft online. Jack is doing some cheap gobbos in Standard and looking at Savra, Queen of the Golgari. Adam has been doing his darndest to play some Commander online with some issues.
MTGCast News
Tom would love some contest ideas, ideas for questions / videos for the trip to Sony to see MTG: Tactics, and ideas for cards that would be great for a "Create some flavor text for this card" contest.

For the contest...why not make ridiculous Keywords. WOTC seems to think that everything needs to be Keyworded...let's see what the listeners can come up with. Examples:
Surrogate X - Rather than pay the mana cost for this spell, its controller may exile X cards that shares a color with this spell.
Allosaurus Rider5GG
Creature - Elf Warrior
Surrogate 2
Allosaurus Rider's power and toughness are each equal to 1 plus the number of lands you control.
1+* / 1+*
********************************************************** Commandeer5UU

Surrogate 2
Gain control of target noncreature spell. You may choose new targets for it. (If that spell is an artifact, enchantment, or planeswalker, the permanent enters the battlefield under your control.)
********************************************************** Pyrokinesis4RR

*** - Destroy all creatures. They can't be regenerated.
