Hello, and welcome to Flavor Profiles!
This week, Matt & Nat are taking some time to talk about an important topic: teaching. Nat recently moved to take on a position with the wonderful team at MagiKids who excel in teaching new players, so she and Matt wanted to take a moment to talk tips, tricks, and experiences.
Leave a note in the comments with your favorite way to teach, the desk you learned with, or a precon you gifted to a new player. Now is the best time to be bringing new members into the Gathering!

We're baaaaaccckkkkkk... Yes, we said that last time, but we mean it. After taking breaks to refresh and clean out the mental kitchens, Matt & Nat are here to talk about what's been going on with the Flavor Profile's crew lately.
We catch up on Aetherdrift and Tarkir: Dragonstorm, plus gush over the recently revealed Final Fantasy cards a bit -- fun fact, we each can cover about half of the entire franchise when the full set drops.
Tune in for our next episode where we chat about methods for teaching Magic. Nat & Matt talk styles, experiences, successes and failures at bringing new players into the Gathering.

This week Matt & Nat welcome their very first dinner guest to Flavor Profiles with @VorthosMike!
Mike joins us to talk about immersion and art in Magic with a focus on Duskmourn, with a bit of side-questing into Universes Beyond!
You do NOT want to miss this one!
------------------
Mike is a curator, the patron saint of art and artists in the Magic Community. He strives to provide opportunities to the Gathering – from seeing their favorite pieces up close in galleries, owning a memory through original art auctions, and most importantly providing an avenue for sidelined artists to break through.
He sees the Multiverse through the brush strokes that bring it to life, small trails of paint that transport us through the blind eternities, immersing us in Magic.
Imaginative
to increase access and equity to young artists, create in-roads to pathways into a professional life in the arts; to create places for fantasy, science fiction, and imaginative realistic art to display; and to celebrate and cultivate talent of diverse artists while educating the community of the artistic skill of the imaginative realism field.

Welcome back for Session IV or our DND campaign, Ravnica: Seasons of Change!
A door opens, and once again closes to trap eight strangers in the hidden sanctum of an unknown host. A portrait gazes upon them, magically lit, the sole eye of its subject watching with a hint of mischief. Galin. Prior to this, they followed the trail of Tomato into the kitchen and discovered two things. One: the house is surrounded by the strange beings from the marketplace; and two: there is someone, or something, in the house with everyone. The Wall of Runes might not be stable.

It's time for our next Flavor Review -- and we are doubling the trouble with double coverage of Modern Horizons III and Assassin's Creed! Mostly because our audio imploded on the first MH3 review, so we started from scratch. Matt & Nat go through their favorite cards, mechanics, deck ideas, and honest opinions of each set. Take a listen and let us know what YOU think about these two sets as we roll next into Bloomburrow!

Welcome back for Session III or our DND campaign, Ravnica: Seasons of Change!
Tonight we are joined by the FULL PARTY in the wake of Nedalya's murder in Session II.
The bonds of food can be as strong as those forged in combat, and our group of strangers experienced both last time when a group of strange armors attacked in the great hall. The group of strangers banded together to fend them off, and found a momentary reprieve in the aftermath - the return of a friend and a hot meal. Finally starting to introduce themselves to one another, realizing that if they are going to be trapped, they should know who they are trapped with… even if one might be a murderer. In the midst of conversation Nedalya storms off.
Her scream brings everyone to the great hall too late, for they find her body…
The flavors of a peaceful moment are burned away by the smell of burned embers emanating from the Dryad, Nedalya, who lies dead before you. A friendly form stands above her casting an ominous silhouette as Janus returns from his previously catatonic state. Ten little Ravnicans trapped for a time. One felt something hot, and then there were nine.

Welcome back for Session II or our DND campaign, Ravnica: Seasons of Change!
Tonight we are joined by @ItsAnnaMargaret as everyone's favorite Selesnyan, Nadalya.
Last time, the group found themselves stuck in the foyer of a mysterious mansion with six other strangers. While their memory was shaky at first, they slowly began to remember the events that brought them to the present. They were all in attendance at the market when the town was suddenly attacked. A wave of smoke coursed over them and they woke up back in the mansion - still unsure of how they got there from the market or why they are here. They found that they cannot leave the mansion due to a wall of mysterious runes. Behind this wall are the hollow eyes of one of the familiar attackers from the market, peering deep within.

Nat breaks out some kitchen social science, polling the Gathering for their least-favorite cards and archetypes to play against. You may be shocked at some, but not all of the results! The reactions are akin to a kid being served Brussels sprouts.
