Hey all, I saw some comments on the most recent pod regarding my absence in the recent pods. We'll probably film a little video regarding the update to the channel. Ultimately, it's nothing nefarious and there is no bad blood at all. I just asked Hayden if I could take a break from the podcast while I moved to San Diego and started my new job. In regards to "how long I'll be gone" or when I'll be coming back, it sort of depends at this point. My free time these days looks a lot different that it did 1-2 years ago and as a result I've had to make some decisions with how I utilize that time. Now that I'm settled, I do technically have time to record the podcast every week... Nevertheless, my ongoing issue is that I feel that I cannot devote enough resources to the game itself to do the pod justice. Arsenal Pass is a brand Hayden and I set out to build based on quality competitive content. At this point, I personally don't feel that I meet the criteria for what an Arsenal Pass host should be/provide to the podcast. Will that change in the future? I don't know, but anything is possible. Regardless, I will be stepping away from Flesh and Blood professional level play for at least a few months to a year. While Hayden and I only discussed my recent departure from the podcast as a "break", I do feel that if the right co-host (with Hayden) was to come along, I would advocate for a new and more permanent replacement. At the end of the day, Arsenal Pass aims to set the bar high and if the search for a new part time or permanent co-host is successful, I think it's a win-win for everybody. - Brendan
Great pod! Surprised Nick Butcher wasn't mentioned as a team member? Like all the guest appearances, looking forward to Brendans return soon? Need those hot takes 😅 also enigma list? 🙏

Congrats to everyone on the team! Love the support for fab competitive groups
Let's make it big!
4:00 Yeah the way the venue in Lyon was almost barricaded was a running joke ;)

Brendan dropped a comment in pinned 😊. As for the Enigma list, will ask Matt if he will share it.
The Magic card you all were talking about that was banned but allowed in a precon was Stoneforge Mystic. Batterskull was never banned.
Our MTG memories are foggy. Thanks!
Great shout out to my boy Connor
So Brenden leave?
Was going to ask the same question
where Brendan at?
I thought it would have to do with moving but he's gone from the video description
Yeah to say nothing is weird at this point.
It seemed like he didn’t even like the game anymore anyways.
Is Enigma cracked ? Yes
Has Matt Rogers refractor enigma deck been posted anywhere? Would love to see it
I don't think so, but will ask if he plans to share in any way!
From testing, If they ban a card, it will be High Octane I reckon....
Got to be right.
Goated title bruv
Apparently it didn't load in straight away haha 😮
Not a bug fan of being left in the dark. It will cause me to stop listening probably all together as i feel thats kind weird to not address it.
What can we help address?
i am sacred and annoyed that Dash is getting free draw
