Too damn slow. And I play EDH also. And was even slow there the one time I tried it.

If a topic can sustain a conversation on what it was originally about, it will do so. That's just not the case for many threads on these forums however, and the relaxed moderation is actually refreshing compared to other forums where strict moderation is such a buzzkill to any meaningful...

For sleeves, I double-sleeve my Cube with KMC Perfect Fits and Red D-Shields. Not a single split to this point. Might get a little grimy with some dirt, but you can scratch it off easily. I don't think I'd use another sleeve combo ever, it's too sturdy and reliable. Cards feel really...

Yeah, gift boxes seem like a great budget alternative. I have a few friends that use a few from a while back, like RTR. The more recent boxes aren't as sturdy imo For $90, better be made of titanium. If you're looking to shell out some cash for a box, I ordered a custom wooden one a few months...

Personally, if I see a card like Elspeth or Gideon early, they're a big draw towards going some sort of Wx Control. You're looking for a finisher moreso than board control in early packs, I usually don't pick up wraths super early unless I know that I'm going aggro (so hatedraft) or to round out...

Just don't play stupid huge cost cards. Problem solved. You can afford to take the occasional 3 damage if it means a steady stream of card advantage. Use Brainstorm! Confidant is awesome, I'd slot one into my cube no hesitation if I owned a copy.

Yeah, there is just a ton of incidental lifegain that makes the Pridemates so much better than you'd ever think. I have double Finks and Ooze as well, which just make the GW Lifegain deck even sweeter whenever it comes together. It's good to see it every now and then amidst the Pod and...

I like the Pridemate package, run two of them. It's just such a convenient and simple subtheme to implement. I really love boards with an Ooze and Pridemate ready to just wreck someone's shit at instant speed.

I like having a white walker as a control finisher, both Elspeth and Gideon perform that role well. It's just that Elspeth has been a little obnoxious in recent drafts and I haven't played with Gideon in a while either. I don't remember which is more obnoxious. I do think the Gideon card has...

Not a fan of either Loxodon or Fleecemane. I run these in Selesnya colors, all of them way more interesting: Dryad Militant Qasali Pridemage Voice of Resurgence Kitchen Finks Kitchen Finks Knight of the Reliquary Which one would you rather run? Elspeth, Sun's Champion vs. Gideon Jura

Yeah, original foil is like $22+, there's a Judge one you can get for around $14ish.

I like Shroud way more, but Hexproof on giant dudes is fine to me as long as they are not evasive. If they need to just beat the crap out of you like Sagu Mauler I'm fine with it. It's when Hexproof comes on a guy you can drop in the early-mid game that it becomes stupid and uninteractive. Some...

My friend and I quilt drafted one-on-one, came up with some really really sweet decks: Ones 1 Arbor Elf 1 Elvish Mystic 1 Warden of the First Tree 1 Deathrite Shaman 1 Mother of Runes 1 Exploration 1 Phyrexian Reclamation Twos 1 Wall of Omens 1 Ajani's Pridemate 1 Seeker of the Way 1 Vault...

Anyone have success with: Soul of Innistrad Is it any good? I really wish Grave Titan wasn't so oppressive. If it was just ETB make two bodies or just 1 body each ETB/swing it would be fine. I've seen cool matches where Grave Titan helped stabilize a board and led to more interesting...

Hmm, I think I'll cut Thragtusk instead then. I do like rewarding people if they do decide to stick to one color, and Vorapede is a pretty sweet pod target also. I actually really like Deranged Hermit. Echo sucks, but getting those 4 bodies is nice. I also really want to see someone pull off...

Yeah, that's what I was leaning towards as well. Gracias.

Thragtusk Vorapede Titania, Protector of Argoth Wolfir Silverheart Deranged Hermit I have 4 slots I can divvy up between these five. Which one's the cut?

I stick to 40 in Limited + Cube, but I'll definitely go 41 in Sealed if it makes sense. Games are slow enough (most of the time), where the percentages are negligible into the late game.

Yeah, pretty convoluted, but it's Standard so it works every now and then. It's super fringy, maybe it was more a Week 1 thing than anything. Then again, no one's prepping to beat Temur Ascendancy of all things.
