Did they all get the same prompt? Why would you do this.

Reinforced Ronin Human Samurai 2/2 Haste At the begging of your end step return ~ to your hand. Channel- 1R discard ~, draw a card. I'm a fan of this one. I love Dash as a mechanic for Aggro and this is basically that without the keyword with how it'll play out. Pairs well with Champion of the...

Wow that is a really ham-fisted design. This is definitely not my set so far.

I think Wanderer is pretty neat as a Control-y walker centered in white and I dig the rare land cycle for my ULD, but every card that has a flipped side I'm just completely ignoring at this point. Saga + DFC is more upkeep than its worth outside of draft. Same for anything that mentions modified...

I really wish this was a Trash for Treasure like effect on just an ETB 2/2 or 2/3. That's EXACTLY what my U/R artifact archetype would love to supplement it. I think crappier Scrap Trawler doesn't quite get there in higher powered environments barring some degenerate artifact action.

Man this feels like Strixhaven so far. There is a lot of text to wade through.

This is a very busy card. It's not complex, but it feels very inelegant to me.

Daretti. It's an actual engine whereas Engineer is a support piece. If I see Daretti early in a draft I can slide into an Artifacts shell knowing I have the means to cheat out guys ahead of curve, but I'll only pick up Engineer if I'm already in the deck.

I wouldn't say it's necessarily better, but it's an additional angle that promotes some versatility by being able to rebuild quicker as mentioned above. As the Aggro player you want to applying pressure early with a curve out, but when things stall out with beefier blockers that's when having a...

I'm amazed by the horrible camera technology that these leakers continually have access to. Perpetually stuck in 2004.

Gross. Less of this please.

So I finally found time to sit down and jam out to some Demon's Souls in the last week. Game is incredible, I'm constantly amazed by the insane details and all of the updates they've made to the original. The gameplay is familiar as when I first played through the game 6 years ago but so much...

Card is super solid. Not quite Tireless Tracker and more like an above cost beater than card advantage engine, but there are a lot of neat little synergies to exploit. Being a human is relevant, blinking for more clues is fun, and I like that it's in the sweet spot for Coco and Birthing Pod...

I'd go as far as saying that tiny imbalances will only ever be noticed by the main cube designer when physically sorting out a cube and/or reviewing on Cubecobra. You've definitely spent like 1000x time poring over your own design and choices than anyone else so any small cracks would be visible...

I'd go with Treasure > Clue > Blood > Food. I just think ramp and card advantage are just so powerful in a vacuum compared to the filtering of Blood or lifegain from Food. If you have additional synergies with cards that care about tokens things can definitely change, but I'd say that I'm almost...

Whenever I think of sets I always tend to associate art with either cards or key story events that happened. The short story where Gideon faced off against the Eldrazi and the art for Near-Death Experience are memorable when it comes to ROE for me: For Mirrodin Besieged I've always been...

A Saga that flips into a creature just makes sense for Kamigawa to me. Mythology and legend were very core to the flavor of the original block ranging from the excellent short story vignettes to the sense of ancient history with the art and kami. We'll see if and how they execute something that...

Would rather lose while having fun than win a boring game. The outcome isn't the most important thing to me when I'm playing a game for fun.

I'd rather play Mending of the two of them. For the Azorius decks I usually draft card quality is often times more important than card quantity. You can make up the minor disadvantage you get from a looting effect if it means that you get to nab multiple creatures with a wrath or set up an...

Urza's Saga is a fantastic card when you can exploit the various features, but YMMV with your cube composition. Low to the ground cubes or ones that feature some kind of artifact theme? Gold. Ones that are more midrange-y and/or value driven? Probably not so great. I think that the playstyle...
