    Not entirely sure who started it, but it's been a meme around these parts basically forever?

    People were saying something about on-the-nose references that feel kinda jarring? On the other hand, look at this thing. Look at it! Cheat out a pair of chonky lads at instant speed and in a manner villain will have problems dealing with for a mere {5}{G}{G}. Just ignore that it's yet...

    As a side note: one thing that I'm always a little annoyed by is how they don't like to spoil Green's non-creature cards until later in spoiler season. I want to see what a Green Spree card looks like!

    Train, I apologize for being short yesterday. I've been a bit stressed. ... I feel like the cowboy hats feel egregious because we just got finished with "all your favorite Ravnican characters do a murder mystery party": the set. It also feels like we're getting a frankly silly number of...

    One of my pet peeves is when people use "Cube" as a synonym for "the specific kind of Cube I like building/curating". It comes off as kinda egotistical.

    If I didn't explicitly set "no free value engines" as a rule for building my silly constrained cubes, that Jace would be pretty cool in a 237 cube. Some other cards that stood out as pretty cool: It slices! It dices! It's kinda absurd. Yeah, sure, a free Karnstruct with each creature if...

    What card type are guns? I'm wondering if I should pack Defabricate when I play at your table...

    That certainly looks like an... *ahem*... "motivational device".

    Is there anything people playing your cube can do while the staring contest happens?

    You only got one right - Spiritdancer's a Wizard, Virtuoso is a Rogue, and Fencer is a Druid. No, I don't know either.

    Tetzimoc has the funniest bad combo, though: Generous Patron "You get a prey counter! And you get a prey counter! Everyone gets a prey counter!"

    So, it's been a while, and I'm not full-up on mental energy so I'm not going to go into a ton of detail, but I felt like I should clarify why I think that creatures getting better has had negative effects. In my mind, the problem comes from two interrelated problems — the overall clock has sped...

    Spreading Seas also messes with their colors. To be clear, I am not part of the contingent that thinks that Spreading Seas or Lithoform Blight are inappropriate in a bounceland format. Sure, it feels kinda bad when your bounceland gets Seas'd, but it also feels kinda bad when villain makes you...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    From experience, stuff like Cleansing Wildfire on a bounceland feels strong but not back-breaking, unlike the sheer brutality of undoing two whole land drops. If I was going to make a land denial strategy in a bounceland format, I'd look for these kinds of cards: Vedalken Plotter Contamination...
