Oh Jesus Christ you guys! Found for me new ways to loathe Mechanical card. For what it's worth, "mechanical" has too many syallables to fit into a Haiku. In other notes, today was the day I realized there are other text formatting options other than default, yet (thankfully?) nobady uses them.

I hope I'm not the only one who looked at Ulamog and thought, "bleh" Not a huge fan of the art on some of these either... I mean, they just don't look as "epic" as the older ones do: Gideon Jura or Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre

I love the flavor and mechanical interaction here. Mostly the flavor: you're sieging a citadel, but how, you might ask? By dumping rocks into this archer's hands to fling at the helpless polis.

At least I think so. I could be complely wrong, like the grandmothers on FB who think LoL means "lots of love" not "laugh out loud" or "League of Legends."

Demonic Pact seems playable even if you can't bounce it. It just means you have to sculpt the game to a point where in the next three turns you win, rather than cast it right away. Plus there's a lot of incedental bounce in Cube already to not have to support it explicitly.

Serious question here: If we cut an enitre color from Cube, which color would you cut, and why?

Safra, how has CoCo worked out for you so far? I remember seeing somewhere math (idk numbers are hard) claiming that you couldn't get a high enough density of <3CMC creatures for it to hit a good percentage of the time in 40 card limited.

Demonic Pact More of a generic black control card, but I haven't seen many opinions on this in cube yet.

This article might be my favorite intro discussion on Magic theory. I remeber reading the entire thing (its really long) when I first started playing Magic, and it was eye-opening. That, and Mike Flores' old articles.

And to add to that: There isn't a single "tempo deck" or "tempo archetype", rather there are decks that care about leveraging certain tempo advatages: Control: Card and Mana (leverageing more mana) Aggro-Control: Board Presence and Mana (leveraging mana efficiency) Aggro: Board Prescence and...

Thragtusk feels more like an anti-tempo card than a tempo card, but still fundementally interacts with the tempo of a game, because it interacts with all four resources of the game, in a powerful way. The way I see it, there are four resources that decks use to win, overpowering two of these...

Simic Charm How does Simic Charm fair in the typical Riptide enviornment? I'm thinking of trying it out.
