Tech Talk 29-B Siege: Spoiler Reviews

We decided to split the latest Podcast into two sections because even with a smaller number of spoilers, they were high impact ones!  First Podcast goes over the Battle Cards (and a discussion on Pierce) and the second is on Characters..let us know if you like the split!

Part 2 of the latest Tech Talk, the only weekly Transformers TCG Podcast. Today we go over the plethora of Siege: War for Cybertron cards previewed over the last few weeks and how they may fit into existing strategies, or spawn their own new ones!

It's a long discussion since there were a lot of cards spoiled while we were on a one-week vacation hiatus, so enjoy!

 We are very excited for this week's Tech Talk! Vince and Scott had the amazing opportunity to sit down with Drew Nolosco, Brand Manager of the Transformers TCG, and John Schork, PR director of the Transformers TCG, about the newly launched "Organized Play Programs" (In-Store Support) by WOTC, potential future expansion, the current RotC metagame, and then some long conversation about the upcoming Siege: War for Cybertron I set dropping June 28!  Do not miss this exciting interview! 

 As you know our Tech Talk podcast tends to go long, well this week went especially long with both the excitement of Siege: War for Cybertron, "Organized Play", and finally the "NPE" that is the Battle Deck driven Combo Decks in the Transformers TCG. 

This week Vince and Scott discuss the current state of the competitive metagame, the power and weaknesses of the various "Combat Tribes" (Melee, Ranged, Specialist) and then dive further into a discussion of a deck they intended to play over the weekend (which we did) but had little experience prior to this conversation in playing: Predacons.

Note: Sorry Brody was kinda loud in this one!

Join Vince and Scott as they go over the weekly news of the Transformers TCG and then talk about what updates to popular Wave One lists you should consider using Rise of the Combiners cards. It is just as important to update existing meta decks as it is to create new ones from scratch!
