This has been a popular custom for my playgroup (and a rift off of You Find Some Prisoners without realizing.) We had one player exile an opponent's Kaldra Compleat then cast it to turn the game around. Will greatly depend on your artifact count, though. Blacksmithy's Hidden Trove (page 153)...

@Velrun Was able to dig some up. Only still use RB, so the other three are MSE: Unrelated--if you also struggle to remember Triomes by name, here's some reskins:

REALLY big fan of Hidden Trove and will likely test it out as it helps support my cube's treasure theme and Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar. Have been looking for a way to play Demonic Pact again, but agree with Brad; the 2/2 body and 2mv cost offers a lot of options for the controller to...

I originally shied away from free spells so players didn't feel blindsided by a free spell while the opponent's shields are down. I reevaluated the stance once the new hotness freevokers appeared and now follow basically what Dom suggested: I established a rule that all free modes on spells...

This was a fun exercise, especially trying to design something that you don't auto-adventure *cough*Bonecrusher*cough*

Thought experiment: every mechanic is kicker (or horsemanship), so errata all mechanics to make them kicker so Roost of Drakes is better ;)

Could remove the kicker and do "If X is 3 or more, return all instead"

What's interesting is that MID used all "instant or sorcery" triggers, while VOW is using "noncreature." Maybe it's telling for the sets to come (e.g. artifacts in Kamigawa and Brother's War), but either way, hoping to see more noncreature support to help bridge spell and artifact decks. This...

I think we, as a community, have come to expect more polish from WotC with how mechanics are communicated over the recent years, such as their use of frame styles. This format works, but is jarring in contrast. My only major qualm is if they use too many sets of brackets on a single card; the...

Most likely. The snowball effect has been the main complaint for my playgroup when someone gets this out on turns 2 and 3. I have a lot of nostalgia for Grave Titan and will continue to pick it highly in Vintage cubes due to its power level and ability to hard cast, but I don't think it's a...

This spell has an interesting push-pull to it since you often don't want to use it as both a regrowth and a Return to Nature unless the game goes long and you can grind out value. Here's a couple cards that are comparable to help narrow down a cost: Allay Wildest Dreams Agree with...

@shamizy I've been consideration Herald of Anguish, but was curious about two things: 1) Have any of your drafters picked the card mistaking black for having an artifact theme; and 2) has its improvise ability been used at least a few times?

Literally just took it out of the cube after reluctantly giving it another chance a couple weeks ago. Players couldn't answer it in time and created a multiple non-games and feel bads. For now, keeping to Archon of Cruelty and Sheoldred, Whispering One for in-color targets.

The lack of how the mechanic works on the card (instead of the token) is the biggest thing keeping me away from a card like Gavony Dawnguard. I was able to do some reminder text tweaking on the werewolf cards to make it better for my drafters (example below) and the play pattern is fine, but I...

Now that we're a few weeks out from MID release, has anyone had the opportunity to cube with these and how was your experience? Ambitious FarmhandSeasoned Cathar Chaplain of AlmsChapel Shieldgeist Adeline, Resplendent Cathar Gavony Dawnguard Search Party Captain

Definitely interested in what you put together for the Grixis Madness theme! It's something that I've had difficulty keeping away from parasitic or lane drafting. Hopefully the cross-synergies work well for you. Also, if you have plenty of cycling for the Drake Haven, Irencrag Pyromancer could...

Some kind of Ninjitsu + Revolt combo came to mind, then formed into something closer to Zoss's example. Would work with both Ninjas and sacrifice themes: Vindictive Ninja {2}{B} Creature - Human Ninja Ninjutsu {1}{B} Whenever ~ enters the battlefield or a permanent you control leaves the...

So I really like Brad's mono-color fetch (Extinction Zone) and thinking about creating a cycle of those. (Would prefer to keep cube singleton and interested in a cycle of 5.) I'm concerned that they're going to be too narrow in a traditional environment as they fetch far fewer lands than their...

CC will allow you to upload custom masks to put together frames any way you can imagine, however your method is MUUUCH simpler, lol
