JudgeCast #51 – Jared, Golgari L4 Lord

On this episode of JudgeCast we have brand-new L4 judge (and alleged robot) Jared Sylva on to discuss his recent promotion. We talk about the roles and responsibilities of an L4 judge and ask Jared all kinds of fabulous questions.

And of course we answer questions from listeners like you!

Stick around after the show for an interesting discussion about a ruling Bryan was involved in at his last States event. Want to chime in with your own opinion? Check out our discussion on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/questions/475497615806734/

JudgeCast #50 – Return to Ravnica Q&A featuring Bryan Nyquillaman

On this ostentatious episode of JudgeCast, the fellas have special guest Jeremy Behunin on! We get caught up on some news over the past few weeks (Judge stream! L3 changes!) and get caught up on our listener e-mail.

For our main topic, we come up with a bunch of random rules questions having to do with Return to Ravnica. Can you answer them all correctly? If so, maybe you should have your own judging podcast.

Just kidding. There’s no reason to compete with the best judging podcast that ever was or ever will be.
