    RiptideLab Most Reacted Posts of 2023

    That was really cool and I wonder if there is another design contest within the same vein. Like trying to curate a whole cube is daunting enough, this was like just designing a grid-draft pile then doubling numbers. Where else could I make another Biovisionary monstrosity?

    RiptideLab Most Reacted Posts of 2023

    2023 is another year for the annals of time. So many sets were released that most of us don't probably don't even realise that there is (insert some amazing fact here)! I know right! I finally got to draft my cube again after like 5 years, so that was nice and it looks like everyone had a...

    I merged the two spoiler threads together, bit weird how it split it up with all the time codes, but at least it is all in one thread now? *shrugs*

    General [Contest] Ravnica Reimagined (Entry Closed - Judging Complete!)

    I think this is what Brad is doing (just posting all 10 guilds and choosing 2 at the end). They only posted the Gruul one now because it was so close to mine, just to show that we had the same idea. It's hard with this mechanic to know what the correct wording should be. I just went with what...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    Also, forgot to mention that 2(.5) weeks ago I played in the Australian Regional Championships. Was hoping to do better than my 4-4 from last RC with Mardu Sacrifice. So before the event I went and played Mtgo each night scrolling through different decks to see if there was anything I thought...

    General Favorite cube cards from the late 90/early 2000s

    There are probably plenty of people who have already made cubes that fit this criteria. The term you are somewhat looking for is Premodern. If you search cubecobra for that term you will see plenty of cubes for inspiration. Here is one for example: https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/1j7pg Sure...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    Surprise! My LGS didn't know what format to play so I suggested cube. Everyone seemed keen. So I dusted off the Wobbly cube and changed some cards to some recent cards. Just used what I had lying around and most of them seemed pretty good. Everyone seemed to have a good time, and it was sort...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    What is this place? Man, it's a little dusty in here. A whole year has been missed, but most of my pauper escapades have been captured on either twitter or youtube, so it is just too hard to post things everywhere. But I still like sealed and managed to do pretty well last weekend in the ONE...

    General CBS

    Yeah, these were in some early storm lists. They were also in the 'Fishelbrand' deck, as they acted like rituals to help cast the delve spells and power up Cabal Rituals they turn they were going to go off with Rush of Knowledge and Energy Tap/Burnt Offering.

    So lets see what the latest standard sets common lands have been and I'll tell you if they are useless or not. New Phyrexia The Fair Basilica These lands are fine in limited to help mitigate flood, I feel like they could make a splash in pauper, but I feel like the cycle lands are better just...

    General How much do you love Magic right now

    I'm part of the Waning Moon. Magic has also been a part of my life for way too long. It is also pretty much the only hobby I have, along with just other generic video games. My LGS is flailing due to not retaining players, and the GP circuit has destroyed any competitive in Australia. The...

    RiptideLab's Most Reacted Posts of 2022

    2022 was another year where the forum just hummed along. A lot more cards were introduced this year, more than any other, which made some people a little overwhelmed and less invested in the hobby than usual. This doesn't mean that discussion wasn't had and memes were never too far away. I...

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    I knew about this since it was put on MTGO earlier this year. He has put a lot of effort into it and has a pile of videos on his youtube channel on cube drafts on MTGO including a decent amount on his own cube as well. I relate to his content well, as he is a fellow Australian and Pauper...

    General Is my signature too lengthy?

    Your request is my demand. I don't like deleting threads, but I have locked this one as we got what we needed to out of this and now it can fade into obscurity.

    Sets [DMU] Dominaria United Spoilers

    They finally made a Coercion at 1B. They've been skirting around it for a while. Nice to know it exists now. Check for Traps is probably better, but this just looks much cleaner. EDIT: Coercion could hit lands though. Eh, it's close enough.

    General Top 100 Best Threads on Riptidelab

    Yeah, that is what I aimed to achieve with those threads every year. Try and make sure things don't get lost to the annals of time. Sure a lot of meme posts get in there, but the most thoughtful pieces of the year usually end up in the top 5 somewhere.
