    can be better than lawkeeper if you have a voltron thing going on. then you can just assassinate blockers. didnt draft VMA but i believe deftblade was strong with empyrial armor and elephant guide running around

    is it just me or are there a lot of really wordy, inelegant cards in these decks? i guess that's what EDH is all about? having to read each card 3 times to get what it does.. http://mythicspoiler.com/c14/cards/bitterfeud.html

    can hooting mandrills be a card? is it just worse than goyf? it's resilient to bolt which is strong against all the UR decks in modern (but so is goyf usually). playing the right number of delve cards in your deck can turn thought scour into a cantripping dark ritual and mandrills seems like...

    General Profound changes for the Modo Cube

    didnt realize this was an edited version and i was excited to see a cube with better gameplay. getting rid of bouncelands and monored only stuff is nice, but still not looking forward to dying to eureka and terrible mana every draft

    Bauble Cube

    lithatog is pretty bad. atog himself might not be great, but it has potential at least. they need to complete the odyssey block cycle with enemy color pairs bc UR discard/sac artifacts would be ideal.

    thanks these are great points. did not notice how many small creatures this thing ended up with. i think that makes the naginata pretty narrow. you are definitely right about all the burn in red - there is a ton of it and it matches up well against almost everything. cutting back on it a...

    http://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/bauble-cube.643/ so this is something i would actually like to do - combining my love of artifact engines and odyssey block mechanics. :) this is where i ended up so far http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/16227

    Bauble Cube

    http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/16227 This is a new cube project that is currently being built from the ground up. I would greatly appreciate any input for archetype and card ideas. The idea is a low/medium-power level cube with overlapping archetypes and synergies. I first got into magic in...

    this has been my experience as well. shenanigans are pretty rare, but also pretty awesome. it does depend on what enablers for it you have though, because having to use something like venser, shaper savant is super mana intensive (although with venser you get to replay the wave again later)

    parallax wave is very cool in part because it is so versatile, with one mode being 2 card combo for plague wind

    are other archtypes going to want these fatties? is there a fair way to play grislebrand? one thing about the powered cube on MODO is that there actually competition for the fatties between the ramp, reanimator, show and tell, tinker, storm with mind's desire, etc. of course in this cube there...

    certainly tinker is only as good as what you're tutoring for - which in the modo cube is either myr battlesphere, sundering titan, or sphinx. sharding sphinx looks awesome btw! i've just grown tired of the show and tell/ tinker/ channel/ eureka/ sneak attack (god why are there so many of these...

    my top 4 suggestions for better cube design: -boros garrison (and all the other bouncelands) are really bad control oriented fixing that punishes you soooo hard whenever someone has LD. makes zero sense in boros colors and very little in the other guilds -tinker again leads to bad...
