I'm in agreement that the cards seem real and legit. I'll be at Magic Con in Vegas in 10 days and will be able to assess for certain in person there! I actually really like the new Chandra walker. She does a lot without any of her abilities feeing overbearing. She protects herself in a unique...

I run a few of them, and there's 10 with good art. But I think the Ice Age ones (which I would 500% use for the allied pairs) are too hard to read and I probably should include them now.

So now we've got two land cycles which I've always liked completed, and I'm thinking a lot about it. Now, I've never been one who's concerned with having complete cycles in Cube. That said, I do have four complete land cycles in my two-color guilds: ABU duals, Ravnica shocks, fetches, and MKM...

I like it more now than ever. * Makes you feel like a wizard, casting a spell that does a bunch of things * Justifies its 5 mana cost * All modes are wholly relevant, a true rarity on modular spells * Doesn't punish you for keeping up your mana * Doesn't feel unfair or like you got "got" in...

I don't like this set, aesthetically and practically. Why is it yet another five-archetype set? It seems easier to splash in Spiderman than this. Visually, I would honestly rather have Ninja Turtles than this League-of-Legends-meets-Harry-Potter. It's proof that the in-universe sets aren't...

I stand by saying that Vraan, Executioner Thane is one of the most underrated Cube cards of the last few years. Arnyn is great too, and likely will slot into more Cubes, despite the higher MV, but I do need to encourage everyone to consider Vraan as a great value card even if its limitation...

I still like it OK. If you get two 3Mv dudes off it, you're feeling great. I just don't want to sacrifice a gold slot for it. All my ruminating about the card does make me reconsider the very cool Raise the Past, though!

Having the mana available to hit both abilities is really hard, but in a mono red deck just imagine playing a lightning bolt in response to your top decked goblin guide on turn 4 and then doubling both of those. I think the confusion my players will have about the "target creature spell" is...

This is kind of where I'm at. I don't like how visually similar they are to Adventures still, but it's a really neat and resonate ability. It reminds me of the excitement my friends got when I explained that planeswalkers "can cast spells just like you", and casting wizards who themselves cast...

Skycoach Conductor, a blue Restoration Angel! Compared to Resto, here are my pluses and minuses, knowing they don't actually compete with each other for a slot in most Cubes: Pros: 1. Can be played a full turn earlier, easier to split the mana 2. Vigilance is cool! 3. Spells-matter support 4...

I don't think it's a bad card or anything, I'd just rather enjoy my Chart a Course. Honestly, I'd rather have See the Truth as well, that's a very cool card that came out during the worst time for testing in paper and I don't even remember if I picked up a copy. Even if your deck has a ton of...

Such an unbelievably cool card. Makes the gears turn with joy the moment you see it. I like it. I am a big Pelt Collector fan and maybe should still play it as my one true aggro-focused 1-drop in the color considering all the tokens, but I play Pawpatch Recruit right now for its more explicit...

This reminds me of The Capitoline Triad, which I quite like but have struggled to get my drafters interested in. The Capitoline Triad Maybe I finally take out Emrakul, the Promised End for The Dawning Archaic because, again, no one seems jazzed to try for Eldrazi titans these days when 4 and 5...

My response to you is also the card I'd recommend if you feel so strongly: That's Rough Buddy

It does and it should not be from a power-level view. It's 1 mana at instant speed to craft your hand in a meaningful way. It may not be card "advantage" but because every card in your deck has different situational advantages, it brings you much closer to "what would be the optimal set of cards...
