    General What's the play?

    You could keep a fun pile for people who enjoy/can handle black comedy/social commentary. That way you can allow yourself even greater creative freedom with the cards you make. Also you do not have to worry about triggering any ptsd's. It is probably easier to make the cube as inoffensive as...

    I have been running signal pest forever and recently added proteus staff but it haven't seen any play yet. Signal pest works in my environment, it begs to be run alongside equipment as well as tokens and anthems. Thing about my environment is that there are very few fliers so it's evasion is...

    I hope it is real. It is absolutely beautiful and completely insane.

    I have sifted through the spirit crap enough times. If I remember correctly there are like 20 bad ones to every bearable one. And the captains all suck except for the one which gives all spirits hexproof and that kills interaction. I kind of hope they don't make a good captain yet, there is so...

    With those stats and that ability it shouldn't be a vampire, but this is probably why.

    We can have a sea of blood and passion! Shadows under innistrad. Fire is overplayed lets bring back the romance! But yeah, realistically I will probably have to wait until the waterworld expansion Edit - we could have had it last expansion if only they had understood the marketing benefits of...

    They need more red merfolks, we all need red merfolks.

    I like high power environments in theory but for me I still want design restrictions because they bring flavor to the environment, like color pie and themes (and tribes). I think it is worth considering what happens to a drafting environment when adding a lot of generically good cards that do...

    I think it is meant to make players more prone to playing 1-2 color decks, less goodstuff rainbow. But colorless as it is now looks like a wonky 3rd color without good lands and few cards. If they print tap for colorless or color lands it becomes no different really from any other color. Unless...

    Site News CFB Store Credit Contest: Design a Cube Card

    Here is my entry, it works best in my cube or other tribal oriented cubes. It's conspiracy on Juzám Djinn. I'm still pushing this tribal thing, I have like +25 captainlike creatures plus small interactions everywhere, it would be a bomb in my cube. At best for you guys Goblin matron becomes...

    Allies are already pretty strong in my cube. I'm thinking they are going to go all the way to bonkers when I put in the claws.

    General Prerelease Reports?

    I had a promo crappy zombiemaker and only played him to see if I could tap some life out of my two vampire envoy. I also had 4 ramp creatures (two hedron crawler, one each of the blue rampers and a pilgrims eye for fixing), and lived the dream with deceiver of form reveling bane of bala ged once.

    On these stormy waters, I just navigated out of looking like a dangerous misogynist, into accidently alienating my muse, and now the subject that I was defending is described like the emotional and intellectual equivalent of using gay as a slur. Try not being a feminist for the last three-four...

    I am sorry as well, you are one of my favorite posters and my cube design is much inspired by your writing RBM. I do however feel genuine concern about attitudes like “any step towards being more inclusive is an acceptable step if it does not do harm in and of itself,”. And I do not agree about...

    I've read a lot of articles, including scholarly articles in feminism. I take the good stuff and leave the bad. Feminism is not for me, any explanation I could give stands a very large risk of reseting this whole thing. I'm happy to lurk back to my cave respectfully agreeing to disagree...

    And that first part is an entirely agreeable position to keep. Though I think we all become better by listening and challenging our worldviews. Putting yourself in someone else's shoes, and trying to do so honestly was largely how past anti-gay bigotry was defeated from what I remember. So when...

    I agree Grillo, I might come off a bit strong, I definitely do not have anything against transpeople. And Tzenmoroth I didn't mean anything ill towards anyone by that, I was just explaining my preference which is personal to me and which does not imply any ill will towards people outside of...

    I'm no stranger to that type of bullying but I can't imagine facing it as an adult because it would be absurd. And sure you probably had it worse, I got away easy because my counterstrikes hit harder, faster and sneakier (maybe my opponents were weaker). I look nothing like the sort of...

    I kind of get why, and how gendered language is all "wrong". I used to be a believer in pc or feminism, whatever you want to call it, but it messed too much with some of my basic moral imperatives (nothing traditional or sexist). And I kind of felt like I was losing my soul every time I held my...
