About The Howling Salt Mine
Have you ever been salty while playing Magic the Gathering? This is the show for you. The Howling Salt Mine is a Magic the Gathering comedy/advice podcast where we read salty stories from the community about games gone wrong, frustrating interactions, and challenging playgroup dynamics. Stories range from frustrating FNMs, getting pubstomped by that jerk at your LGS, and lots of commander stories where the salt is plentiful. We offer advice on how to deal with the frustrations of losing, how to avoid (or use) the saltiest cards in EDH, and how to navigate social situations. Join Sam, Mike, and Tony each week as we delve into the salty, salty mines of the community, put some salt in our mine cart, and bring it right back up to our dear prospectors listening at home. If you want to hear your story in a future episode, send it to us! New episodes every Thursday.

[…] Let me just look up this card just so you guys can read it. So it's just pure Elish Norn, no honorific. Two and two white. Whenever a source an opponent controls deals damage to you or permanent you control, they lose two life unless they pay one. So he puts that down and reads the front. He's like, and then there's a saga on the back, but I never flip it. He's like, I never flipped to the side. Like a turn goes around and not skills is like, dude, you should just take that saga out and read it. Right. And to flip it, you pay two in a white and you sacrifice three other creatures. […]
