Man, I barely even posted in 2018 aside from spoiler season and like 2 cube reports. I gotta step my game up this year.

Now that's more like it. Decent 2/4 body, gives tokens some keywords to play defensively, and it becomes a Panharmonicon for all death triggers? Blood Artist and Zulaport Cutthroat triggers? Draw 2, take 2 off Midnight Reaper? Yahenni, Undying Partisan gets super swole with every trade/removal...

I don't know if you need to fully commit to a recursive theme to make this worth it. I think just being able to ping out an extra 2-3 points of damage during a game while also beefing up aggressive bodies as an anthem on legs gives you more than enough reach as an aggressive deck. This makes...

That is my favorite spoiler by far to this point, the card is absolutely incredible. I've been trying to figure out ways to differentiate the different aggressive decks in my format and had been tinkering with gold cards and offerings here and there and this is the best signal I could imagine...

First day of official spoilers, we've got some stuff: I love the typing, and that's some funky art, but I'm unsure of how good this is. Smaller Cloudblazer at 2UG is okay if unexciting, you start cooking at 4UG though. Being able to shift around counters on to this will determine just how...

Alright, so I Quasiduplicated a Crackling Drake in a GRN draft last night in two separate rounds at FNM. I think I've got to give it a test run now. There's some potential here: Quasiduplicate Murmuring Mystic Mulldrifter Skinrender Shriekmaw Young Pyromancer Flametongue Kavu Reflector Mage...

Adapt should play just fine, it's just so safe and boring to me. I'm most excited to play with Riot and Spectacle, I could see some sweet aggro support in Jund colors between the two of those mechanics.

Mystic all the way. A 1/5 is such a weird body that gums up the board. It's actually kind of obnoxious to run into when you're trying to turn the corner and apply pressure. Being able to just shrug off 4/4s swinging in is incredible. Talrand dies to everything and will be irrelevant in combat...

I like unique planeswalkers that replicate certain gameplay features that we don't get very often in MTG like rebuying artifacts through Daretti, Scrap Savant or symmetrical discard and stax-y play with Liliana of the Veil. Specific walkers for certain archetypes also work like Ajani, Caller of...

Fanatic of Xenagos, except good. Card is solid, Riot looks like a pretty clean mechanic for aggressive leaning RG archetypes. Might give it a run in my cube, lord knows RG has enough midrange-y creatures. Going Bloodbraid Elf into this seems like a real beating.

Dauntless Bodyguard Militia Bugler Midnight Reaper Dismissive Pyromancer Goblin Cratermaker Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice

Bedlam Reveler I remember running this guy for a stretch and then subbing him out to try other stuff, but never got back around to bringing him back. Does anyone still run him? What do your spellslinger shells look like currently? I feel like I get a sweet spellslinger deck every now and then...

He is my favorite 1/3 for 1U in cube by far. He can do some serious work in tempo oriented UR builds. Playing him on curve just opens up a box of possible lines the rest of the way with burn spells and counters being even more efficient and tricky than they were previously. I remember getting...

Oh man, I'm going to need to pick up a playset of those bolts for my Modern deck. It looks fantastic. I'm always down for more choices in basic lands and promos and whatnot, but this set of basics looks very generic to me. And really, another Bolas horn land? :rolleyes:

I really like Multani as a finisher. I feel like one of the bigger problems for G/x leaning decks in cubes with good removal and interaction is the inability to rebuild after having their threats dealt with since they expend so many resources trying to branch ahead into the late game with ramp...

I've been playing with Crawler ever since it was first released, I think it's a solid card. You need to be able to consistently play it as a 4/4 for 4 for it to really be worth it, and you need to working towards something specific. If it's that big on curve, it can reasonably keep up with any...

I'm playing Shadow of the Colossus Remastered for the PS4 right now and it is absolutely gorgeous. I'm still playing with the PS2 classic control scheme which is pretty dogshit, but I've got the muscle memory ingrained after buying it for the 3rd time.

Generous Patron Black Sun's Zenith I'm pretty sure it triggers multiple times depending on the number of creatures your opponent controls. It doesn't care about the value of X for Black Sun's Zenith, just the number of enemy bodies that will be gaining counters.

That's fantastic, congratulations!

I have periods where I'm back into the game and then I'm out again. I'll keep up for a bit, maybe get a little more invested into Modern or EDH stuff, then kind of dip out for a month. Cube doesn't happen as often with most people in my main playgroup having moved out of town after graduating...
