#152 - The 2022 Pioneer Wrap Up

The First Pioneers

The year 2022 started very unassuming for Pioneer but it ended up being one of the most eventful years since the format's inception. We had tons of break out cards, new decks appeared, some old ones returned to the metagame, there were bannings, and through it all The First Pioneers were there cover it. There was so much going on in Magic the Gathering you might have confused what did and did happen this year in Pioneer, so with this week's episode we want to set the record straight and help everybody understand how we got to where we were so we can look forward to next year.

What better way to wrap things up for the year then than to have one of the best competitive Pioneer guests on to talk about what happened both competitively and digitally in Pioneer than Harry13SCO. He found himself in the thick of things in 2022, going from frustration to elation as he battled through various metagames, sometimes finding himself at the bottom but near the end of the year, coming out on top. He offers us valuable insight on not only the metagame but also the decks he played, why some cards did better than others, and why some were a big let down.

Make sure to listen to this episode before the new year so you can start Pioneer with a fresh slate in 2023! We'd also like to wish all our listeners out there happy holidays!
