Newly-minted Lord of the Pit, "Jedi" Bill Schriver, joins to chat up combo builds across various Old School formats. Also, we pick Meatball's scabrous brain on his performance at Lobstercon.
The days grow short as autumn descends. After our summer’s-long hiatus, a quartet of hearty mages Gathered to again test their mettle with OS-EDH. The setting moved from Moss’ stronghold in Logan Square to EDH neophyte Bob Agra’s West Town abode. Would our time away and new blood yield technological innovation?
The following is a report replete with unimportant ramblings, minutia over the last three cards in the 76, stories of punts, and of course moments of immense skill (read: luck).

The Lords recount their thrills & spills from OSPB3 weekend before turning the page to OS95 and B&R news.

Lords Moss, Agra and Rohr run down Solocon/Old School Singleton, Revised 40, the London Mulligan, Fifi Nono, and Luther Manhole.
