We have lots of stuff going on this week. The World Magic Cup happened, for one. That's about all the discussion we're gonna have about that. WotC has revealed some information about some products (again) that we feel the urge to talk about. There's the 2012 Holiday Gift Box, which you can find here:

There's the complete listing for From the Vault: Realms, which is right here:

They also revealed a Return to Ravnica card that will apparently be the Launch promo, which we're gonna talk about. Yes I know it hasn't shown up on the Magic site anywhere just yet (for some reason) but it's official. Trust us on this.
The main topic of discussion is all about Blue and how it fits into casual, multiplayer, and Magic in general. There's a lot of meat here that I'm just not gonna bother trying to write down, just listen. Also, a couple quick hits:
