    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Previews

    Ah you're right. I just realized that that's relevant now for wording and requires an exact match. Ugh.

    Don't know if you actually want to do that for some of these as it puts the card into play, not into your hand. I misread it on first glance too.

    Sets (STX) Strixhaven Testing/Includes Thread

    Haven't tried it in cube, but I've jammed it a bunch in EDH over the last year and a half. Card is just dumb. It's a better Sulfuric Vortex being less interact-able, it lets you passively buff your life total while shocking the opponent, can ramp you by one, AND will occasionally turn into a...

    That saga is one of the ugliest card designs I've ever seen.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Anyone have experience with: Nullpriest of Oblivion It's not the most impressive card at its base rate, but I think this ticks off enough boxes for inclusion in my environment. I was messing around with more self-mill/graveyard support recently with stuff like Stitcher's Supplier and...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    This is probably more of a mid power level card. It doesn't do quite enough to get there at a higher power level with a lack of protection and effectively 1 ability the first turn. You'd have to be pretty desperate to blind flip with him the first turn and then it feels bad if you flip something...

    Card/Deck Creature lands

    All solid aside from Lavaclaw which is usually a turd. I only run it because R/B land cycles are mostly bad and nothing quite fits what I need. If I had an MH1 Horizon Land variant I would make the swap in a heartbeat. I currently run the following: Celestial Colonnade Creeping Tar Pit...

    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    I think you missed the point. I don't find a power level discussion useful for cube design because if I'm already discussing cards with other invested Magic players with cube experience, its a moot point. Unless you're a brand new player, there's an shared understanding about the going rate for...

    General Fight Club

    Garden is probably less frustrating for the opponent, but mostly because I'd be all for the opposition pinging themselves for mana. Makes it easier for me to get there if you're hurting yourself for minimal gain. Unless you have a lot of guys with keywords that can take advantage of that...

    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    As a designer, improving the win percentage is the last thing on my mind when deciding on final inclusions for my cube. That'll come down to the individual player and what decisions they make through draft and gameplay. I'm only here to provide them with the tools and options to get there. It's...

    Eh, I wouldn't go that far. Season 8 was pretty awful and put me off of ever watching the series again. And that's from someone who really loved the show, had many rewatches of the early seasons, and ended up reading all the books after the 1st season was completed. It's just so important to...

    General What can green do that's not ramp?

    I find that while Mono-Green itself is kind of mediocre and is usually relegated to a ramp strategy on my side (though I avoid "super-fatties" that are unplayable otherwise), G/x decks can shine by introducing different forms of Midrange gameplay. GB Grindy Graveyard Stuff: The Gitrog Monster...

    Yeah yeah, I noticed it now on second glance on my post. Dumb typo :p

    General Forum upgrade: tomorrow at some point (Sunday, April 25th)

    Card image lists don't seem to work like before? I would use: Champion of the Parish Thalia's Lieutenant Champion of the Parish Thalia's Lieutenant Doesn't seem to be working right now. EDIT: Nevermind, I messed up when freetexting on a reply

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Skyfisher is solid. It can enable neat synergies with rebuying effects, especially non-creature permanents ala History of Benalia, and is a solid body for its cost, but it's mostly just a 2 mana 2/3 flyer. I'm not really to excited with it as a T5+ play in most games. However, the flexibility in...
