The Bolt Zone Episode 13: Talking ‘Bout Deck Size. Is Bigger Really Better?

Magic is in a wild place right now and the decklists floating around prove it. Today, the guys look at some examples of decks going above 60 cards, talk about the theory behind numbering in deckbuilding, and help you understand why (or why NOT) you should be straying from 60 cards.
