Magic the Gathering Lore - Elspeth Tirel

Season 3, Ep. 77
•

Lore Boys have been summoned to your lands once again for more Magic the Gathering Lore.

Untapped and unhinged, this week we're starting the conversation about Elspeth Tirel, the generally white aspected Planeswalker frequently found chilling in the golden halls of Bant, one of the fancier shards of Alara.


We'll follow her from her humble beginnings as a support animal for a terrible, terrible monster all the way up to her defeating a dragon with a demon's heart which we have been told is even more dangerous.


Jamie drinks tap water, Pete starts a Ponzi Scheme and Ethan confirms the shape of the planet.

Just an average day here at Lore Boys HQ, which is White, Red and Blue.
