Omg, my dream has come true! I'll have to update the wish to "please print a modern-frame Blast-Furnace Hellkite with reminder text for Artifact Offering." It's crazy how many new cards have been printed in the last few years for this kind of cube. And based on the titles of some of those...

Kind of reminds me of Death-Rattle Oni

I'm literally begging Wizards to make a Legend that turns all creatures into 1/1 Otters with Prowess in Bloomburrow. Please Wizards.

Borderlands of Alara: Jhessian Frontier Along the Jhessian coast, where the foamy oceans of Bant intertwingle with the mathematically managed microcurrents of Esper's 11th Subsea, things are getting a little off schedule. Coastal raiders, always on the lookout for new plunder, have managed to...

Sonic, Sneakered Speedster will create 1d6 Ring tokens whenever a source an opponent controls deals damage to him. Ring tokens are identical to Treasures except they generate brand awareness. One in every 1000 Ring tokens is a reprint of The One Ring. Legendary creatures will be printed on...

Lightning Skelemental This was the moment I knew these Modern Horizons sets were something special. Regarding Chillerpillar discourse: I only drafted this set once and I forced Snow just for this card. But what actually won the game was my Soulherder + Man-o'-War

All of my recent cube updates have been acquired. The cards have been audited and the paper list matches the digital list. Everything is shuffled and back in the box. At this moment, the cube is perfect and complete. Can't wait for more Bloomburrow spoilers

I loved both of the other Modern Horizons sets as well. They have a real "love letter to the game" feeling to them. I think it helps that I don't play constructed Modern anymore, so it doesn't feel like Wizards might be gearing up to delete my $1500 deck from the meta. I'm just looking forward...

Just to briefly weigh in on the framing issue, I actually vastly prefer the method used on the Secret Lair Universes Within version. Vikya, Scorching Stalwart Instead of the inset second name line overlaid on the art, it lists the original SLD collector number in the collector info at the...

I haven't actually played it but I run it in my cube for all the reasons you mention. The environment runs a hefty helping of equipment, plenty of self-mill and self-sacrifice, plus artifavt synergies and token payoffs. So he's relevant to a lot of decks (in theory).

These orcs would work so well in my cube. Thr discard effect, token copy effect, and trinket artifact effect are all staples of my play space. Thanks for making this!

In my dream, I don't have to read the card. I don't have to explain the card. I just activate the Pod and win the game in a manner so breathtakingly novel that my opponent shakes my hand and says: "Isn't it beautiful when something new comes into the world?" We part as friends, each changed by...

This is another big reason I don't want to cut it from the cube. Right now the environment is heavily weighted towards brand-new (like 2021 or later) cards. It's fun to have some 2000's era stuff in here, like Crystal Shard, Master of Etherium, and such. I think maybe Goblin Welder himself is...

I'm also adding some of these cards to my Multivalent peasant cube. First off: the slam dunk include: Cactusfolk Sureshot <-> Samut, Tyrant Smasher Cactusfolk are a big flavor win in my book. I love the whole fantasy supertrope of anthropomorphizing random animals, plants, furniture, etc. To...

I really want Vaultborn Tyrant but I literally JUST added Protean Hulk and the poor boy hasn't even gotten a chance to squeeze out any eggs yet.
