19. Memes & Meta: Hanging Out with Hellstorm Mikey

The Conclave are joined for this special episode by the King in the North/Epic Gamer/OG Death Guard Gaming Group himself, Mikey from Hellstorm Wargaming.  Mikey takes us through his journey in Warhammer 40K, from the early 2000s sacred tome that is the Battle Games in Middle Earth Magazine via Dawn of War to running one of the most successful YouTube channels and gaming sites in the hobby, as well as winding up Warhammer redditors by being right about rules changes!  We get Mikey's thoughts on the state of the meta and where the competitive scene might go in 2021, as well as a preview of the upcoming Las Vegas NOpen streaming tournament (wish Mikey and Tank luck listeners!).  We also cover some of our standard tangents into video gaming, Japan, Pokemon, and how to deal with comments on YouTube. So tune in, grab your coffee and your #SmallBoardGang t-shirt and enjoy this brilliant episode!
