    This is a cool one. I think of it as a Skyknight Squire in green, that has trample and ward {2} to begin with, but can only scale to a 6/6. Seems like a good trade to me! I like how it supports the obvious green 'go-wide' theme, but also slots really well into simic flash since you can grow it...

    I'm with you 100%, which is why I got these. Quality isn't exactly what a normal sleeve would be, but you aren't really shuffling them so it's not as big a deal. They're just good for tokens in general too, since you can have say a knight with vigilance on the front and knight without vigilance...

    This is maybe more work than you're looking to do, but a trick with tokens I'm trying is to print the card's corresponding token on it's back (or just put both in a single sleeve), and have it in a clear sleeve for draft, so they then have to grab your second copy from the 'token' box to put in...

    Biotech Specialist Tannuk, Memorial Ensign Both great cards from EOE. The specialist might be your only source of lander tokens, but they're great for smoothing out mana-screw, and he synergies super well with anything that creates treasure or blood (which plays into your madness theme)...

    Good call-out! I can definitely see this punching above it's weight, but I would have loved for it to trigger on attack (ala Pip-Boy 3000) I can't believe I've forgotten about this card, and I'm surprised I don't see more people running this! Maybe it's because it generally gets pushed out by...

    I'm in the market for an equipment that makes creatures unblockable. Unfortunately all the good options are UB (I'm aware of Trailblazer's Boots ) and all discussion of them online revolves around commander, so was hoping to get some cuber's insight. Silver Shroud CostumePsychic...

    It's the indicator I'm trying to use now for real cards that I've modified. I'm also starting to use a different font for where I've changed text, but for big changes like Nissa's I really don't want them to go unnoticed. I've also played around with these 'doodle' and 'gem' style icons, but I...

    Thanks @LadyMapi for all your help on the last one! Super excited to get to play around with it, and I'm going to print with the version you suggested. I did have one other crazy idea I'd love to get some other options on: I love what Nissa of Shadowed Boughs does with the Golgari pair, but...

    Do you think you'll try it out in place of Alpha Deathclaw? It's a good deal weaker I think, but you make a good point on story equity. What I meant by signaling is how cards like the Deathclaw at least have some extra synergistic hooks with counters and ramp (which Golgari might want to be...

    I like this more than I should. Obviously not for power-maxers, and probably not worth a guild slot, but this just looks fun and brings a sense of doom if you can't deal with it right away. You really want a way to give the token haste, (or proliferate the saga?) but the floor of just take...

    Oh this is very clever! Having to hit double lands drops to earthbend is probably the right balance so it doesn't get totally out of hand. I also like how if you have no other creatures you can at least store the counters on a land for later (kind of like Black Panther, Wakandan King, which as a...

    I think I'll yoink this and retire Fiery Temper (or just run them both?) I prefer the higher floor on this one though, so more than just the discard deck will run it. Maybe you'll be interested in some alt art? (I can adjust the frames as desired) You might also be interested in my Strangle...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Totally agree. I'm probably trying to gas it up too much, I'd just prefer a MDFC that drafters get as excited about the front as much the back. I might pick Disciple of Freyalise pretty highly because I have a lot of sac synergies alongside cards like Monoist Sentry, or Stump Stomp or your...

    Knowledge Seeker This little guy has been putting in some work in limited, and I could see it getting even stronger with a bunch of cantrips. It even hurts for your opponent to kill, as you just get value from it anyway. It's no Wan Shi Tong, Librarian, but feels a lot fairer. Outside of that...

    Was the Drowner of Truth nerf intentional? I get the floor of a duel land is still pretty good, but 7MV for a 4/4 doesn't get me too excited. Honestly I'd love if it just had Drowner of Hope's extra ability, which gives it some fun extra synergies and ways to push damage through. I really like...
