The most fun that I've had playing control is when you have an alternate win-con as your main way of beating your opponent. A pile of removal and powerful walkers is nice, but that isn't a formula for exciting gameplay each draft. Reanimator and Lab Maniac decks have been the most fun for me...

Hope y'all got those Tireless Trackers early, was in the winning list from SCG Open and was great this weekend.

Alright so I drafted the set yesterday, went 2-0 split with my buddy in the last round (yay freeroll draft!), and he had a Tireless Tracker in his GR deck. That card generates so much value, it's ridiculous. I think I definitely overlooked how good it could be. The clue tokens are best in a...

I mean, this is Sealed so it's definitely going to be a different draft experience. I do see it translating over to being quite fun, there are a lot of interesting synergies and you'll have much more control of what you want to build via draft. Also why are so many Westvale Abbey being opened...

My pool ended up being pretty trash and I got dunked on by the stupid +4/+2 equipment. Like once you hit 4-5 toughness, it's really hard for anything to die. I got got in my 3rd round by a guy starting off with T1 Village Messenger hit for 1, T2 Flip Messenger and hit for 2 + play Gibbering...

Madness is a bit too low on the power scale for me to add it to my cube; it just requires too many changes to the rest of the cube design to be viable. There's just not enough of a payoff yet for it to be viable enough for me. As of right now, Madness is just additional flavor text on most of...

Drafted psly's cube, ended up with this: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/506812[/url]"] Ones 1 Birds of Paradise 1 Llanowar Elves 1 Mana Vault 1 Oath of Nissa Twos 1 Everflowing Chalice Threes 1 Coalition Relic 1 Courser of Kruphix 1 Cultivate 1 Maelstrom Pulse 1 Managorger Hydra 1 Nissa...

I'm much more interested in Skin Invasion after seeing it in action during LoadingReadyRun's Pre-Prerelease over the weekend. It did a ton of work. I completely glanced over it during spoilers and didn't realize that it turned into a 3/4 on flip. That's pretty sweet for a red enchantment.

Spells are way too efficient in my cube for Werewolves to become a real archetype. There's just too much interaction early and often for them to flip reasonably often. It does happen every now and then, but I don't think it's something I can currently implement without sweeping changes. You need...

I like Linvala way better. If the white confluence were an instant maybe I'd like it more, but I'd still prefer Linvala. It's a legit win-con for a control deck, it's a fair reanimation target, and it has amazing art. I put it in my cube as soon as I could, haven't yet seen it in action though.

After deckbuilding he was like shit, two lifegain decks. How do I even. He wasn't exactly Red Aggro so he had some outs and reach to deal with these decks; he actually beat the other Lifegain deck pretty handily. Red Aggro always has those fast starts that incremental lifegain can't really put a...

We had this win our draft yesterday, an interesting one that somehow got away with running 15 lands. Lots of different lines of play with this one, even an infinite combo built-in: Ones 1 Soul Warden 1 Champion of the Parish 1 Carrion Feeder 2 Bloodsoaked Champion 1 Sunlance Twos 1...

This was the first draft where I've actually seen her in action, but she was very very impressive. The Abzan player who drafted her was actually able to fire it off twice in one turn during the late game, then brought back the fodder through Meren of Clan Nel Toth. It was pretty gross. To turn...

Heh, funny that I saw Kirblinx's post earlier in the cube list thread (thanks for the shoutout!), thought that my list was out of sight out of mind after zero updates in like two months. This session was something we just decided on late last night once people came back from break. It's been a...

I like it as is. My lack of activity has mostly been due to school (haven't actually cubed in well over two months), but I'll probably have a few posts up soon with SOI includes and results.

Not a fan of Drown, ran it for a while. Too swingy.

Nice card, I'll probably give it a run. Been looking for a card to branch out the zombie colors a bit without having to get a straight up boring lord like Diregraf Captain.

Sin Prodder is insanely good. Holy shit. Card advantage or I get to burn my opponent out. Just a great card.

This set is incredible. I don't think there's been a set in the last two years with more additions than this one that I'd like to try out: Nahiri, the Harbinger - Ajani Vengeant is really freaking strong, might want a change of pace Arlinn Kord - She's too awesome to not run, pretty powerful...

Great. I have 3 just chilling in my binder. I can pay for prerelease!
