I could imagine Slash Panther running through the Woodlands on a particularly dry, arid day.

I should have noted the jocular phrasing of "Bear King" in your reply ;)

My favorite thing about this card may not be the card itself, but the following poke-the-bear moment. Nothing like some playful trolling to appease this regal urso.

Maybe I'm pedestrian, but Tamiyo looks exciting. Block for a little while, play a Brainstorm at the end of your opponent's turn, and then go to town.

The HAS-WoTC plan, in addition to selling you cards you already own, is to print new cards so quickly that your gaggle can't flock in time for your goose to produce.

Well, one of my gripes with Wurmcoil--and why it's not in the cube despite probably being of an appropriate power level--is that it's so effective and everyone can play it. Slippery slope, I know, because there're plenty of cards in the cube with subjectively undesirable play patterns, but at...

For the 360: Harvester of Misery - The only thing that scares me about this card is how quickly and easily it can enter the battlefield ahead of schedule (while leveling everything else), but it's a terrific and flavorful design. Assuming it's played on curve, it has to instantly be in the...

180-card synergy cube Including: Sludge Titan I'm in love with the sludge. Maybe: Case of the Crimson Pulse It's got potential, assuming I want to introduce a case to the cube. Probably not: Reckless DetectiveGalvanizeAftermath AnalystEcstatic Electromancer Less exciting, my 360 will...

Just before the release of MKM (and when isn't it just before the release of something), I've finished a large update to my 180-cube. A more cohesive theme is running throughout the cube in the form of playing with graveyard and exile zone synergies. Adventures, blinking and reanimating...

I like how your list looks, and I looked at it with particular interest because I'm on my own path to building a 180-card cube as well. At first pass, I think the largest number of power outliers exist within white, black, and red, and tokens/going wide looks well supported. With this in mind...

This is some great feedback. I think these criticisms pick up on learned tendencies (power over synergy, redundancy over divergence of threat presentation). I'll tinker with my list, and I especially like the ideas of Rielle, one of the Goblins, and Ogre-Head Helm. (I've never even seen the...

Thanks for the draft! I like how you managed to fit in a light madness theme as well. I think it's going to be a challenge to hit the redundancy that aggro really needs to be successful in a 180-card cube without cutting powerful mid/late game cards and engines. Perhaps by making some room with...

Reserving

Hi folks, I've lurked on Riptide for many years, and I've finally registered and created thread to share a cube...and ask for some help. Jason's 4-Player Synergy Cube (Bar/Travel/Twobert) is my attempt at fusing a synergistic environment with a smaller, 180-card sized cube. Consistent with...
