    Arcane Sanctum

    Hello again, A couple of months ago I decided to be ambitious and create a second cube! (It was mostly because I had the hankering to theory craft.) After a few iterations and I am ready to throw it at the masses and see what people think. http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/38342 My intent...

    Hi, I would love to be apart of these cube drafts if you guys are still looking for people. My Skype is alnastas

    Raveborn Meddlings: My first cube, presentable at last!

    Have you thought at all about Mark of Eviction? If you are looking for a repeatable enchantment effect, this one could serve that function as well as affecting the board. Also, what has been your experience with Increasing Confusion? I had it in my underpowered cube as well, and my play group...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    Thank you everyone for all the great feedback so far. Over the weekend I did some updates to my cube, and I took a lot of what you guys had to say into consideration. I decided to move away from some of the pet combo's in my cube, and move toward ones where their pieces are easier to interact...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    Thanks, I enjoyed the read. I understand the pain many cube designers have with running black agro as an archetype. My playgroup has not drafted this cube enough times for me to know if the Goblins and Zombie subthemes are traps, or if the pay offs are actually present.

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    I talked towards these points one and two in my previous posts. I am looking into the issue of supporting too many narrow interactions and looking for ways to either support some of them more or get rid of them if it is deemed to be not worth the space in the cube. I wouldn't mind hearing your...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    I am not opposed to proxies, I just have high standards for them if I were to do them. So I would need to get them from somewhere else (I am an extremely non-crafty person). I know I can go out and buy these, I just haven't done it yet. I mostly view some of the sub-optimal choices as things I...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    I would prefer to keep this cube singleton if I could. I think my main options are Jhessian Infiltrator or Skyrider Elf if I want to replace the hippo with something that fits in an aggressive UG tempo/evasive Edric and swords type deck. Or I could just cut that slot and replace it with Bring to...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    That is pretty much how the hippo functions in my cube, a more aggressive Xantid Swarm for the UG tempo deck. It is also semi useful in a combo setting where you want to make it so your opponent can't interact with your combo, but I could see it not being a powerful enough effect. I would...

    LeAnn Rimes' Value Combo Cubadanza

    Hi all, I took a crack at making my first cube a few months ago and after a few playtests I have finally figured out a list of 540 cards I am more or less ready to get constructed feedback on. I would really appreciate your thoughts/ comments on how I could balance some things or if some...
