    Sets (MKM) Murders at Karlov Manor Previews

    Agreed - I hope there will be lots of simple clue things for cube designers to pick from. Keep 'em coming.

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

    If you have any pairs of decks that you know from experience are fun to play and fairly well matched with each other, I'd be interested. I think this is pretty valuable.

    General CBS

    Whelming Wave has an easily discernable objective. It's kind of a combo with Tolarian Kraken and your creatures with ETB triggers. Relentless Assault effects are build arounds if you have stuff with attack triggers, tap effects, can't block effects, cheap pump spells, prowess, even just...

    Simplicity Cube

    Hi! I was kind of leaning toward a set cube with rarities in place, but I don't know. I like your version's description as a "fake constructed environment." That's the way the real Alpha set was, after all. Since I have no real aspirations of putting together a play group, this is more of a...

    Simplicity Cube

    I've put together a reboot of MTG Alpha: https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/alpha-rebooted This is pretty similar to the simplicity cubes, but in this one I'm thinking of it more like an actual MTG set list. In its current form, it has too many cards for an actual set, but I think the list is...

    This discussion makes me want to try to design a cube that tries to be both simple and exciting. These new comments on design philosophy have me thinking.

    Sets (WOE) Wilds of Eldraine Spoilers

    Some of the food cards are goofy enough to be in Un sets. Mintstrosity And there's plenty of puns to go around. Meanwhile, I found Unfinity to be disappointing. Nothing I wanted to use.

    This is a better Un set than Unfinity.

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    I think he should do whatever he wants if he is putting in the effort to set it up. I'm enjoying the polls.

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    I like C17 or C19 since it doesn't have flavor text and has the new frame. But the original is good. Remastered is also a good choice since it gets the new frame with a similar expansion symbol to original TSP. The Jumpstart art is cool, too! But this is a card that has been printed many times...

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    Rob Alexander on dual land art is awesome because he also has that awesome Underground Sea art from the very beginning. That Temple Garden art was also the first shockland spoiled for what turned out to be an exciting block overall. The shocks were shocking when they were spoiled. I wasn't...

    It would be cool if all the manlands had some archetype support. Give UB or BG the Noose Constrictor ability, give RB the Nantuko Husk ability, give UR a loot on combat damage to player, or maybe prowess, and so on. It's nice that BW has lifegain... the previous one did as well, so whatever I...

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    Cool series! Ponder was a great choice for the latest vote. I like the M10 since I prefer to use the most well known art, and I prefer art that explains the card. I also like art that isn't specific to a plane when I can get it. I might go with one of the Commander versions that use the newer...

    General Non-Creature Artifact Tokens

    I would just make the blood token unconditional. You don't have to kill a creature to draw blood. Usually it will make more flavor sense to create the blood than than not to, so keep it simple.

    General After Full Set Reveal

    I like to look at new cards, so I understand the flurry of activity during those times. However, the type of content that I enjoy the most is the theory crafting / philosophical stuff. Cube content would be more interesting for me if the content creators would break out of the habit of creating...

    General Major change to Standard: Cards rotate slower

    Of course you're completely right. Players hate it when they invest in cards and then the cards get banned, and I can't blame them. I'm not investing chunks of cash into a competitive deck - rather, I have played MTGO / MTGA and experimented with a variety of decks, and if something gets banned...

    General Major change to Standard: Cards rotate slower

    I actually wish they could have stuck to their previous plan of having the same number of sets in Standard all the time by way of rotating one out every time one rotates in. I like more rotations since it provides more shakeups to allow different decks to emerge. My preferences would just make...
