    This is nice as a Reyhan, Last of the Abzan without Commander trinket text.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Having cards that are different depending on which way they're vertically oriented in a game where a major mechanic is turning them 90 degrees was an interesting choice.

    If an opponent loses life multiple times during your turn, does your speed increase each time? e: Just spotted the "once" in the reminder text, nvm.

    Aston's Cube

    CubeCon Rerpot - Part 2 Saturday started with me messaging Jamie and Jon to see if they wanted to walk over to the convention centre together, but with no reply at half an hour to the start of the first draft I headed over solo.

    General Alchemy, Playtest, Funny and other strange cards

    I've run it before in my fairly high power cube and it wasn't great, it just isn't worth spending 4 mana on this most of the time. It did lead to a very funny game where one player played Split Screen and the other Phyrexian Metamorphed it so they both had split libraries. I guess since I do...
