I'm not going to sit here and defend Indiana Jones's poor archaeological practices, although I do think the whole "preventing the Nazis from acquiring Magical superweapons" thing is pretty heroic no matter how you slice it.

You know, I was going to say at one point that the “explore deck” is as simple as throwing all of the reasonable explore cards for a given power band into the Cube. However after watching one of Jim Davis’ Ten New Brews for this set which was essentially Gruul explore, I think there might...

I updated my list to include a couple of cards I forgot: Deep-cavern Bat Contest of Claws Bedrock Tortoise Echoing Deep

I think this is a "Cory in the House" situation where the explicit text isn't necessarily problematic, but the implicit implication could easily be seen that way. For those of you who don't know, Cory in the House is a TV show about a kid who moves to the White House, and hijinks ensue. The...

Confusingly, Kindred is only replacing the card type tribal. Behind the scenes they’ve stated that they’re still going to be referring to decks and themes built around creature types as “Typal.” I’m just going to call it Tribal unless I’m talking to a WOTC person.

This is a testing/includes thread. Post pictures or a text list using /c with what cards you plan to include and what cards you plan to test. Including: Get Lost Helping Hand Kellan, Daring Traveller Confounding Riddle Spyglass Siren Bitter Triumph Fanatical Offering Inti, Seneschal of the Sun...

I agree with that. I'm a little surprised it hasn't shown up anywhere, given how much power it can potentially add to the board. But no, it's just a random limited card. Based.

Oh I understand not liking the card in draft. Ravnic has just mentioned disliking it three times in the past two weeks and I find that kind of funny. I guess it's his Venser lol.

My guy you have the world’s largest grudge against Gruff Triplets lol.

Get Lost Kellan, Daring Traveler Spyglass Siren Waterwind Scout Fanatical Offering Sentinel of the Nameless City Topography Tracker Restless Anchorage Is it just me, or is basically every Map card incredibly playable? The only one that doesn't seem somewhat good somewhere is Storm Fleet...

It rolls into battle and crushes its enemies under shell!

This is exactly the type of wordy card I don't like. You have to read it like two or three times before you can fully appreciate what the card actually does, but then the card in practice is only ok. I feel like if you're going to put players through the effort of trying to use a card, it should...

You’re right, but I don’t think extra that ability is going to come up often enough in Cube to really matter unless the designer is specifically pushing Dinosaurs. Functionally it’s a 3/2 with Trample in the vast majority of cases.

My nominee for the cutest card in the set, at least until we see the Capybara. I love the art and flavor of this, and the base 3/2 trample stats seem potentially quite good. I definitely feel that we're getting past the point where French Vanilla creatures with stats are the most fun options for...

I don't know man, this thing gets bodied by Siege Rhino until you dump several mana into it. It feels perfectly balanced to me ;)

This is an uncommon. The set symbol in this set is too hard to read smh. At least new cards have that little rarity indicator on the bottom left corner, so this isn’t quite as bad as Coldsnap.

I agree that the difference between being able to return multiple creatures over one creature is a real difference, although if you're trying to reanimate something that costs three mana like, say, Monastery Mentor, you really are just paying 3 times the cost for minimal benefit. This is...

I think actual factual Unearth is probably a little too good for where they want Standard and Pioneer to be. Honestly, I'm surprised they pushed it this far. It wasn't that long ago that this effect in Standard was priced at three mana (Patch Up, Call of the Death-Dweller). This is a welcome change!
