I'm sad to see him go. He's a great role model, and so is his Picard character.

I'm making a principled decision not to interfere with the development of this conversation.

hurricane earthquake Mentioning these because we had a green player back in the day that would just end the game in a tie with a big Hurricane if things weren't looking good on his end. It was kinda funny. We also had a guy in our playgroup who had a copy of this, which I think is a pretty...

I'm not sure about Clickslither, but yes, Gilded Lotus felt like it made that mana pretty instantly good for my GW ramp deck.

We've cloned your cube for an Extra Life event, and we played it with 7 drafters. Here are a few lists! This first deck was strong and went 3-1 or so in single games. Clickslither is a bomb. Ones 1 Raging Goblin 1 Scorched Rusalka 1 Shock 1 Chain Lightning 1 Unearth Twos 1 Goblin Firebug 1...

Kira, Great Glass Spinner This was one of my favorites. I got tired of control decks ruining my Johnny fun on MTGO, so it was satisfying to make them 1 for 2 themselves.

Your game data runs into the thousands of games? Holy ****. That's badass.

I think I'd like a lifegain theme that runs on incidental life gain triggers from things like Extended Absence or Eye of Jace or Something Worth Saving, to take examples from this set. I already have a limited number of those one time enablers. Then the payoffs can be stuff like Bloombrute where...

Any opinions on this? I have no idea, but I'm curious about tapping into the deep pool of life cards. There are a bunch of interesting crossovers with other themes nowadays. But I don't want to nerf aggro and also don't want annoying decks. What's annoying with life decks? Soul Wardens plus...

Agreed. It's also a card that keeps the dream alive for some ideas of generic green aggro and WG humans in my cube. As many looters as we have, I still don't have the perfect one. To me, a 3/2 for 3 is a little too strong to also have a zero mana looting effect, plus this one untaps for some...

Murmuring Volume As somebody who was willing to entertain adding Jalum Tome, I'll buy a copy of this for sure. It's a little different than Collector's Vault. Both are cool. Murmuring Volume is a completely clean card that I can even add to my beginner cube list, assuming I ever find the...

Master of Barbs I want to play this with a Goblin Bombardment and some tokens in play. Theorix Charm I've had a hard time identifying a "signature spell" for Dimir in the same way that we have really good ones for the other guilds. But I like this. Generous Revival I initially glanced at this...

Darksteel Angel I'm gonna have to find room in my colorless 9 drop section for this, folks

On removal: Plundering Barbarian doesn't seem crazy to me, but you're the one who has experience playing the cube, so your info is better than mine. I think I'd be more inclined to replace Ingot Chewer to reduce the one mana stuff - maybe he becomes a one or two drop to help aggro depending on...

It's been downhill ever since Legends came out.
