    Card/Deck Balance: Reasonably Efficient Non-Etb Creatures?

    That is one of the cuttroat problems cube has. When you run whatever you want you always gravitate to things that are good. No one runs Runeclaw Bear. Even though it has been a decent playable for every limited format it has been in, it just can't cut it in cube (even pauper). Everything you...

    Peregrine Drake combo in pauper.

    I don't think you need it to be the same deck. You no longer need any cost reducers to get infinite mana, so you can run more disruption. I was thinking of brewing something up, or maybe just throwing in the combo into my Acid Trip deck and see what happens. If I ever go deep into it I'll...

    General Sign up for 4-player Grid Drafting!

    So I played against Jason yesterday in a great 5-game set. Since I have now played both opponents this was my deck: I kept doing a lot of swaps during the sideboards. Against Safra I would bring in the Prowler and Inquisition and take out Karn and Thoughtseize. Against Jason I would bring in...

    Community Project: 4-at-a-time Battlecruiser Cube

    After commenting about Declaration in Stone I didn't want to seem like a 'Negative Nancy' and keep throwing down your ideas (Peter LeCara). Personally I think Afterlife is way too good here. I claimed that Crib Swap was the best card in my deck whenever I drafted it in the old MTGO Legendary...

    I can't allow declaration in stone. I don't want any removal that costs less than three without a significant drawback. Would you mind shifting it to something else please :)

    Sets [EMA] Eternal Masters Spoilers Thread

    I've been following this set from a Pauper standpoint, as these sorts of products generally make a dint in it somehow. The best part was how many cards they reprinted that had high prices. The following were all way more than they should have been: Daze Hydroblast Pyroblast Ancestral Mask...

    The Video Game Thread

    I've been pretty slack when it comes to video games this year, I just haven't felt the need to play them. That said, I did just pick up the new Fire Emblem game (Fates) and have been enjoying that doing a chapter every night in bed before I go to sleep. What makes Overwatch super addictive...

    General please critique my (first?) Doomsday article

    I also had the same question as Anotak. Are there any decks that would try and run this without Lab Man? But then I thought I would check out your old Doomsday post and found this reply: ... and you do touch on this in the article: It just doesn't feel like you touch up on it enough in your...

    So some of you may of forgotten that we did this. We finished up the draft a couple of weeks ago and have been trying to plan some games. Safra and myself got to play each other today and we had some pretty tight games. So I was on BW control and Safra was on Mardu aggro. Which lead to some...

    Isn't there a thread with this premise already?

    Obliterate Cube

    Dude, that post was awesome! Finding what archetypes you wanted, seeing where they overlap and finding what colour pairs needs archetypes was a great process to follow. It feels like this is what most people are asking for when they first post their cube list here but you went above and beyond...

    General Planeswalker Deck design challenge!

    For my fishy mistress: Rare: She likes her big creatures, so why not make it a double tutor? The goal is to drop the Kiora next turn then she ramps you 1 so you can play a 6 drop the turn after. Had to include the discard as instant speed better than Divination seems way too good. Uncommon...

    General Planeswalker Deck design challenge!

    Ah, but if you get it in your starting hand you don't 'cast' it, so you won't be getting your free Planeswalker. It gives it purpose when you draw it later and that seems pretty cool. All this being said, these are some sweet designs. I have a couple of ideas brewing around in my head. I'll...

    General The Draft Exchange

    To be perfectly honest, I don't really know if they have a place. This deck as really a stretch to try and get lab man to work, and to be honest I don't think it really gets there. I wouldn't mind some more self mill to make the Lab Man more viable, Loam is good but that was all I could find...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I thought it had a restriction of making your deck size larger at one point. What was wrong with that restriction? Making you play with a bigger deck to lose consistency, while gaining the consistency of having a creature you will always see seemed like an interesting dynamic. Although still...

    General The Draft Exchange

    Since you said you needed more data I decided to burn through some drafts of your cube. I did 4 and you can see them on cubetutor. I was pretty happy with the Naya Control Deck, but what I really want to show is this pile that came about after a hopeful first pick...

    Sets Spoilers Over Innistrad (Digest)

    So I have been doing some drafts online due to having a decent amount of play points (as said above in the sealed). Then we get to tonight, where I did three drafts in a row losing all of them in the first round. Each game had a mana flood/screw problem game. The other game I just couldn't push...
