As someone who quite literally cannot listen to podcasts due to hearing problems, thank you for the summary! (Stuff on audio is generally not the greatest for accessibility. Also we're on a text forum with multiple users who don't have English as their first language, so...)

This guy is pretty cute: Watchful Radstag And, unlike a lot of the cards in this set, it doesn't clash super hard with Magic in general! ... I'm actually kinda surprised at how put off I am by Fallout's aesthetic. Like, I'm not a big fan of it at the best of times, but there have been...

Please tell me that they just haven't spoiled the Golgari one yet...

Curses, my rustiness at designing cards is my undoing!

It's unintuitive, but reducing the number of dedicated archetype slots can actually increase how many cards are playable in each archetype. Think of it this way: if you took six cards per color (one per archetype) and converted them from dedicated archetype slots to broadly playable cards...

just make a cube with no red in it problem solve

There's also the synergy with Master of Waves Casting the Master with the Godhead out gives you a 1/1 and at least six 2/2s, and you need to kill both the Godhead and the Master in order to get rid of them. Nasty.

Really not sure how I missed that it's a 3/3 not a 2/2... That said, the Troll eating your graveyard is what makes it interesting to me, because it actually has a cost associated with it being a 5/5 trampler by T4. On the flip side, it also has more play against graveyard hate (since it has a...

It's a cool card... but I feel like it's going to cap out as a 4/4 trampler for {1}{G}{B} with a bunch of text on it unless the game goes really long? Compare to... Charnel Troll

Oops, yeah, it's not a common term or anything. It's named after 237 Magic. I also have a more recent take on the concept called Late Night Musings that I haven't posted about much. It's honestly a pretty fun design challenge, especially if you're also focused on making it still feel like...

Debating revisiting some older cubing stuff, and I'm curious if you guys think that the following cards can hang together at the same power level: Serra Avenger Guardian of the Great Door Bayou Groff Talara's Battalion (Thinking of doing a mini-reanimator theme in a 2-3-7 cube using...

Primeval Command

As a legitimate question... how long would it take for your players to notice the difference if you swapped the extra Doom Blade for a Cast Down? Both in the sense of "how much do people actually notice when you break singleton without telling them you're doing so?" and in the sense of "how much...

Is Cube generally being singleton really that novel anymore, though? For a lot of people, Commander is their main way of playing Magic, so having a format where you can run multiple copies of a card (wow amazing) would be the novelty.

To hop on this after the Simic Combine brought it back from the depths... has anyone built a duplicate microsealed pool? In other words, it'd be an itty-bitty "constructed format" to mess around with. ... As for the exile thing... maybe that's just a sign that you should avoid effects in...

Honestly, Loam + cycling lands feels really good as a card advantage engine.

Ancient Tomb City of Traitors

True... but that's assuming that a grind-y deck wants the depletion lands. They're for decks that want to be here for a good time, not a long time.

I've only really played with them in Pauper... but they're really nice if you've got a bunch of proliferate floating around or are trying to ramp into something. One of my favorite openings is T1 depletion land → T2 Island, Everflowing Chalice, Experimental Augury → five mana on T3.

I'm a little surprised that the depletion land aren't on there.
