42. 2v2 Fever

2v2's are all the rage this Fall/Winter! We dive into Socerton's poor 2v2 performance, as well as the upcoming EGC tourney and our thoughts on how 2v2's role in the competitive scene helps spice things up. All that and more in this week's episode!

41. Controversy in the Octagon?

We heard that some Extra Sheep were given in the Outback Octagon and that controversy ensued! So, Socerton, CalerbCalamari, and Askallad dive into why that's just silly. We also talk about the starting moves of every Civilization and how we think the patch is going so far. We also discuss tips on getting better at the game, Dnd Characters, Frost Punk II and more!
