The Pioneer Aetherdrift set review

MP3•Episode home

Get in your car and start your engines! The First Pioneers are revved up for the newest Magic the Gathering set. Special guest and crazy deck pilot Conorman 11 joins us this weekend to talk about all the speedy new vehicles, out of control spells, and which cards will crash and burn. While some people are saying that the new set won't have much impact on Pioneer, we think that it's going to be great for the casual crowd and that the "Timmy" players will have a lot of fun playing demolition derby with all the big cards in the set. Stop in and see which cards we picked to be at the starting line in the next Pioneer season!

Be sure to stop in to talk about your favorite cards if we didn't mention it in the episode!

#198 - F'in around and 'Founding' Out 45:13

27 weeks ago45:13

45:13

It's been a while since The First Pioneers were able to record an episode but we finally got a chance to and it's a DOOZY. There was a lot to unpackage from the announcements Wizards of the Coast made during the event in Las Vegas, and we talk about each and every thing that relates to Pioneer and how it will impact the format. Magic Foundations was also just released but due to the heavy reprints and cards already in Pioneer, we decided to do a Top 10 list of cards we think will make a splash instead of doing a full review episode. Be sure to stop into our Discord or follow us on Social media if you want to share your own top 10 list or to talk about cards you're excited to play with in Pioneer!

#197 - The Duskmourn Set Review for Pioneer 1:26:44

35 weeks ago1:26:44

1:26:44

It seems like all we ever have time for these days is set reviews with the amount of cards coming out and accelerated release schedule from Wizards of the Coast. We barely get a chance to play with the cards from a new set before more are on the way. It's suffocating, it's hard to breathe, it's . . . no wait, it's this house? It's having some kind of effect on me and it feels like I'm going to die! RUN! The newest set, Duskmourn: House of Horrors preys on our fears and chills us to the bone with its disturbing images and homage to some of our favorite horror movies. The set has had countless flavor wins so far and is sure to be "killer" with commander players, but how about in Pioneer? So far the overall opinion of the First Pioneers is that it is one of the stronger sets to come out for the format in a while, and we look forward to testing out some of the new cards in our favorite decks. See which new cards make the "cut" and which other ones will be left hanging in the rafters of the attic! Be sure to contact us if you are looking forward to play with some of the new cards or want to talk with them!

#196 - Bloomburrow Brews for Pioneer 55:08

40 weeks ago55:08

55:08

Bloomburrow is bringing bunches of new typal cards and adding more choices to previously underwhelming categories of cards that should eventually lead to an expanding choice of decks in Pioneer. While we might not see the immediate change in the format, it doesn't hurt to explore. In this week's episode the First Pioneers talk about updates to some of their favorite decks as well as some new strategies they think might finally have what it takes to break into the metagame. Be sure to stop by our Discord or Twitter afterwards to talk about some of your own brews you're working on with cards from the newest set, Bloomburrow!

1:25:45

The First Pioneers come off their long hiatus to talk about the newest Magic the Gathering Set, Bloomburrow, and how it might fit into the Pioneer metagame. The new set brings a lot of new typal cards with it, with an interesting mix of non traditional effects that could amplify the power of current decks, revitalize dead or dying archetypes, or birth "offspring" into the format with entirely new decks. Listen to see where we think these cards will fit into Pioneer then be sure to join us on Twitter or on our Discord afterwards to discuss the new cards!

They ridiculed me. They laughed at me. They told me Waste Not would never be a playable deck in Pioneer. BUT WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?!?!? This week the First Pioneers break down the latest build of the Waste Not deck and talk about how the deck is winning, why it's suddenly better than it has been in past metas, and how you can play it. If you feel like talking more about it, be sure to stop in to our Discord or follow us on Twitter/X!

We go over what cards are going to make a splash in the format, which ones will be fun to brew with, and which will ones could end up being role players.

#192 - Back to Square One 48:32

48:32

It's been quite a while since we talked about one drops in the Pioneer format (almost 3 years to be exact. Strixhaven had just come out!), but with the recent influx of powerful and useful one drops in Pioneer we felt it was time to revisit the topic! The First Pioneers talk about what used to be good, what new one drops have joined the previous ones, what one drops have potential, and which one drops are stuck in limbo with no decks to go into. If you're looking for some cards to brew with, or hoping to revisit some past strategies, this week's episode is a great deep dive into format's best one mana cards! If your favorite one drops didn't get mentioned in the discussion, be sure to join the discussion about it in our Discord or on Twitter!

#191 - New Blood in Pioneer at Pro Tour Murder at Karlov Manor 54:03

1 year ago54:03

54:03

Vampires had been counted out of Pioneer for a while. It was a fun deck and one of people's favorite typal strategies, but it hadn't been relevant for a while. That all changed last weekend during Pro Tour Murder at Karlov Manor. Seth Manfield and a team of other players brought resurrected the archetype with Black/Red vampires, backed by the new card Vein Ripper. This new blood proved to be too strong for his competitors and he took down the event. The following week more and more people were turned (into vampire players) and now the vampire menace is among us. This week the First Pioneers go over all results from last week and talk about what comes next. Be sure to listen then stop in to our Discord to chat about the new Pioneer metagame!

#190- Murders at Karlov Manor Pioneer brews and early results 47:13

1 year ago47:13

47:13

Welcome to a new Pioneer Metagame! Or is it? While a few new cards have snuck their way into Pioneer this season from the newest set, most of the other cards seem to be biding their time and waiting for the right moment to make their move from the shadows. This week the First Pioneers talk about some new brews and updates they have with the cards from Murders at Karlov Manor, and take a look at the early online results before the next major event in Chicago. If you have some cool brews of your own be sure to stop in to our Discord later and share them! We'd love to see how you're using the newest cards.

There seems to be a lot of killing going on in Ravnica, but does the Murders at Karlov Manor set have any killer cards for Pioneer? This week the First Pioneers team once again breaks down all of the cards in the newest set and talks about their potential impact in Pioneer before making our top 5. As you listen, make your own top 5 and if you think we missed any cards in our review be sure to let us know on Twitter or Discord afterwards!

#188 - Murder Afoot: A first look at Murders at Karlov Manor in Pioneer 47:22

1 year ago47:22

47:22

After a slow winter vacation for The First Pioneers and the Pioneer format, both of us are ready to get back into the swing of things. Murder is afoot in Ravnica and a group of magical gumshoes are on the case. While that's about the extent of my knowledge of the story for the next set, what we DO know is that Murders at Karlov Manor is bringing back some older mechanics as well as introducing some brand new ones. Since we'll be devoting our next episode entirely to the full spoiler of cards, this week seemed like a great time to talk about the potential effect these new abilities and mechanics could have on the format. Will it enable new decks, power up old ones, or fall flat and soon be forgotten? Before the full spoiler is out, wrack your brain with ours and join in the conversation on our Discord and Twitter! Which cards and decks do YOU think will be the biggest winners once the investigation at Karlov Manor is concluded?

#186 - Welcome Back Co(p)ter 1:06:56

"Welcome back Your ban was your ticket out Welcome back to that same old place That you hovered about Well, the card names have all changed Since you flew around But those decks have remained And they've turned around Who'd have thought they'd need you (Who'd have thought they'd need you) Back here where we loot with you (Back here where we loot with you) Yeah, we squeeze him in a lot Cause we got him in the 2 slot Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back Welcome back" Johhann Bastion, Kaladesh Thopter Enthusiast Welcome back to Pioneer Mr. Co(p)ter! I personally was very sad to see you go after such a short time in the then fledgling format, but now I think that Pioneer is ready to take competition to the next level. While the unbanning of Smuggler's Copter was exciting for many of us, that wasn't the only thing that came with last week's Banned and Restricted announcement. After a few short weeks, Geological Appraiser was buried, and after years of wishboarding Karn, the Great Creator was finally unmade. These bans had created some monumental shifts in the Pioneer metagame and we at the First Pioneers took a first look at all of the new decks that have popped up with Smuggler's Copter in them and the decks that are coming back because Karn is gone. We also discuss where the Pioneer format goes from here and what to look out for down the road as the metagame shifts and adapts to these changes. Be sure to listen before going into your next event or choosing your deck for this season, and if you want to talk more about the current state of Pioneer be sure to join us on Twitter or in our Discord!
