With the eighth season of the Tavern Brawl just around the corner, the crew of DblDubz, Filtrophobe, and Tuff assemble to go over what’s changing between seasons. One of the biggest tweaks is a new pairing system created by Jseph. To help explore this new method, Tuff and Dubz do a mock pairings process, moderated by Filtrophobe. Such an episode wouldn’t be complete without a section on team composition under the new rules, which the crew gladly delivers. And of course, all the usual segments. Thanks for listening!

About DblDubz
Hey everybody, DblDubz here. I love the Realms Rising community and have an absolute blast playing in the community organized events. Even if it's just a little bragging rights, playing with something on the line against people you know, just makes it that much more exciting to me! That's part of why talking strategy and working together to optimize our play is something I love doing. A few other facts about me -- I come from a competitive Magic: the Gathering background and have played fewer than 50 games of Star Realms! I'm also married and have a one and a half year old son, both of whom I love spending time with. Chat me up on the Discord server or send me a challenge in game any time!
