Kyle and Andy discuss the evolution of enchantments in Magic: The Gathering and explore how different archetypes create liminal spaces in gameplay.

Turns out that despite Kyle's frequent love and mention of enchantments, he hasn't done an episode on them in a while. With the length of the podcast's history, Kyle takes Andy back to some ideas discussed in 2018 and opens up discussion about the seismic changes to how the card type can be played in commander. Andy opens the analogy of liminal spaces in Magic and the two take a look at how different enchantment archetypes may lead us to create liminal spaces in our brews.
