Serum Visions: Episode 3 - Project Prison

Serum Visions is a Magic: The Gathering podcast about iterative brewing. Each episode we work on a project -- a deck, strategy, or archetype that we think has room for exploration -- and brew to the fringes of competitive deck building. 

 

In this episode we follow up with the results from our leagues with Monastery Mentor and check in on any Urza brews. After that we open the books on our next project, Project Prison. The Prison archetype is a highly polarized, time honored archetype with many avenues for exploration. In this episode we’ll look at the history of the Prison Archetype in multiple formats, look at what tools and techniques are used to lock an opponent out, and brew up some spicy new prison decks for testing.
