Hardly Highlander 🪷 | Episode 41 - We Love Highlander! (and so can you) | a Raise MTG Podcast

Oracle Text:

As a show that is focused on competitive play in Magic--and especially focused on competitive play here in Australia--it should come as no surprise that we've started playing more 7-Point Australian Highlander. While the Wizards-sanctioned competitive seasons alternate from Standard to Modern, one format remains steady between them: Highlander.

Being a Vintage format, Highlander carries a massive scope of power and complexity. From Black Lotus to Time Walk, Mawloc to Deadpool, Quantum Riddler and Cori-Steel Cutter, Highlander takes the best of the best cards in Magic's history and puts their power to the test in competitive singleton 1-vs-1.

So what is the format like? Why are we playing it? Exactly how many people play Storm and own a Black Lotus? These questions and more on today's episode of Hardly Highlander, another MTG podcast within an MTG podcast.
