You may have heard about my hard drive woes. Well today I had to format my entire computer and the VOD for episode 103 was one of the victims sadly. I was able to transfer the video directly from Twitch, but for some reason Twitch cut the intro of from the main episode. The intro in video version can be seen here. The podcast version is fine and has been up since last night. Sorry for all this. Darn hardware and Twitch failures!

Kris Van Pelt I've caught Kripp on stream a couple of times, the second time he was eating a bowl of cereal for breakfast during his stream, not saying much for the next hour, and Chat couldn't stop talking about that damn bowl of cereal. I honestly had no idea how well-spoken Kripp is. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview and I feel like I learned quite a few new things. Again, TAC, you delivered the goods! Thank you, Kripp, for agreeing to converse with the angriest of chickens and their flock of slightly perturbed chicklings! Please, DO come on again during the next expansion, if not sooner. :D

Topher "Kumdobeast" Lee Noooo!! I needed Jocelyn on this episode to talk about last week's Tavern Brawl!! Which just happened to be my favorite Brawl thus far. "It's Raining Mana" at first glance seemed like a not so creative Tavern Brawl but as I started creating my deck, I began to think about the intricacies of the rules for this Brawl especially how to opitimize the mana costs of my cards and building around the accelerated mana curve. I would imagine that a lot of newer players who are trying this brawl got a great opportunity to learn the importance of trying to curve out your mana and to consider that when creating a normal custom deck. Personally, I think the reason why I absolutely LOVED this brawl was because of the deck that I built. I love gimmicky, silly, decks and one of my favorite decks to play casually is a ramp druid running 2 Alarm-O-Bots (my absolute favorite card). It's a terrible a deck but when you can Innervate on turn one and bust an Alarm-O-Bot to get a Ragnaros on turn two... it feels sooo good!! Well for this brawl I ran a hyper ramp druid deck with 2 Innervates, 2 Wild growths, 1 Gadgetzan Jouster, 2 Alarm-o-Bots and 23 6+ mana cost minions, most of them being legendaries! While I side with Garrett and Dills about Tavern Brawl and play just enough to win my pack each week, this week was the first week where I played multiple games just because I couldn't get enough of the hyper ramp druid that I had built and I hope that they Blizzard continues to come out with fun and cool ideas for Tavern Brawl. Btw, I believe i ended up with and 15-2 record with that deck. Absolutely love the show! Congrats on the HUGE milestone of 100 episodes. I started listening to you guys around episode 185ish and I'm doing exactly what Dills had mentioned in the previous episodes of binging on the previous episodes, which btw is really interesting and fun with this particular podcast because of the nature of this game, in which new or cool ideas become a reality. I believe, Dills mentions in the very FIRST episode about how it would be cool to have a mechanic where hero powers change. Cue Justicar Trueheart almost two years later. Actually, that would be really neat; to go back through the older episodes and see if predictions were correct or if crazy ideas at the time has become a reality currently. Keep up the amazing work! I can't get enough of TAC! So much so that I even became a Patreon just to make sure you guys stick around for a LONG LONG time! Thanks guys!! -Kumdobeast
