    Design Diary: Cooperative Deckbuilder

    I'm in the early stages of working on an asymmetrical cooperative deckbuilder. For me mechanics come first and theming last, but roughly: - one player is the town - one player defends the town The Circle of Life Each card has a battle side (top) and a town side (bottom). In this game...

    General (M30) M30 Previews / Spoilers

    The full spoiler is up at https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-image-gallery/30th-anniversary-edition. A couple cards caught my eye. Wow, what a beast this card is. Even with opposing blockers, Force of Nature can close out the game in three swings. I noticed there's also...

    General Prince Renathal

    Probably most cubes don't need more control tools, but this is a super clean, well-designed card from a Magic-adjacent game. I also think for cube purposes that wording on cards (especially custom cards) can be much cleaner. Obviously there's a MTG companion with similar effect, but I don't...

    General Which Shard/Wedge/Guild name is least intuitive to you

    I kind of hated all the wedge names when they were released. I've come around on Abzan, Jeskai and Temur, but Sultai and Mardu are still big misses for me. Anyone else have similar mental misfits?

    General Wetness

    I'm not fully sure how to verbalize this concept. When playing @Chriskool's Meddling Mage Grid, I really appreciated the design. There were tons of cool synergies and interesting interactions that unfolded as we played. But even though there were plenty of strong cards around, something about it...
