    My playgroup was delighted to break singleton for African Swallow and European Swallow, but yeah, CubeCobra doesn't currently support it, or if they do, I haven't figured it out yet!

    I just (re-)added a small discard sub-theme into my Cube with the following cards, and I'm so happy I did. Feels like a reasonable contender and the cards are totally fine in a variety of decks, even at my relatively high power-level. Hostile Investigator The Raven Man Smallpox Davriel, Rogue...

    Sets Captain America, Iron Man, Wolverine & Black Panther

    Because they choose the flavorful option when it makes the most sense, especially for one-off designs. Target audience of these is suspected to be NYCC attendees; they'll understand that Wolverine "regenerates" even if they don't play Magic, but tapping him and making him temporarily...

    Article [Lucky Paper] Cube Retrospective for 2024 Standard Rotation

    It's up! Thank you for reminding me to do it as well, it's always so much easier once the cards are on CubeCobra so I can have it automatically pull in my testing list. Gosh, I love Lucky Paper.

    In a world without Commander, I could make a 60-card rabbit deck with multiple copies of all the rabbit tribal cards just from a couple drafts and prize packs. It'd be a reasonable deck, easy to introduce someone to the game with, and quite resonate with new players. Now I'd give it to someone...

    So I support this exact deck in my relatively high powered Cube (especially for Riptide standards) and it's a real deck. Norin is great for a dozen reasons, but yeah, having another strong legend for the deck at 1MV is excellent, and I love being able to get extra cast triggers in situations...

    Article [Lucky Paper] Cube Retrospective for 2024 Standard Rotation

    Going through my own personal retrospective is not a total surprise. NEO and MID were huge sets for me at the time, but I am happy to have lowered my Cube and have taken out the swath of dragons Kamigawa brought us as well as the Day/Night cards I was initially jazzed for from Midnight Hunt. On...

    Sets [DMH] Duskmourn: House of Horror

    Untimely Malfunction I dislike the aesthetics of this one more than most of this set, but goodness, that's a ton of flexibility! I'm currently running the under-appreciated Cast into the Fire and this feels way more exciting as the first redirect effect that has enough utility that it will...

    Question fellow Riptiders: is this what finally makes me break singleton for the first time in a decade? Secondly, I hate these lands...but I'm considering putting them in my Land Box for Cube because I know some of my players are degenerates and would think they're funny.

    If you're doing the Alchemy version of Symmetry Sage, it's certainly the "better" card, but I still like everything Stormchaster's Talent does. Sage is going to help drive it home real hard though that UR prowess is a real deck though, where Stormchaser's Talent may get picked up by random Blue...

    Lovely aesthetic in this set. Much lower in terms of total inclusions for me compared to most sets in the last few years, but I'm very happy with what we got. As a reminder, the context I'm coming from is a 720-card Cube that's Legacyish power-level that has mostly fair Magic. All comes out to...

    Or you can be a massive dork like I am and draft your Cube on Cube Cobra 3x a day and try to emulate all of your regulars' play-styles and preferences and delight in every new card for what potential it has, rotating 25+ new cards into your list every month and making micro-changes weekly.

    We've got the whole of the main set up today and should have the whole of the new Commander cards in short order @TrainmasterGT . I'm ready for the Testing thread!! I love it so much! This kind of ability is so much better at 2 mana than at 3, but it lets you play it as a fake Krenko if you...

    This is the third Talent that I'm absolutely adding to my Cube, goodness! It wasn't too long ago that I was excited for a 1MV prowess creature with extremely marginal upside in the form of Elusive Otter, and I have a copy of Triton Wavebreaker firmly in my on-deck binder as well! As the third...

    I like this cute little guy, and I'm never going to be mad about 2MV gold cards. I don't love the Lizard trinket text, but I think it's great how it makes you work for the Grumgully, the Generous / Good-Fortune Unicorn effect while being at both a DRAMATICALLY better spot on the curve and having...

    Yes, and wow! Thanks all! I'm happy to share the victory with LadyMapi, I really enjoyed her Cube as well and am honestly touched y'all voted for Mister Gutsy at the level of a LadyMapi build. I guess this means I've got to come up with the next contest, too, yeah?
