Independents don't cost votes in that sense. The same argument was made against Nader in 2000 but it was wrong then too: the number of Nader voters in Florida was considerably outweighed by the number of registered Democrats who voted for Bush or didn't vote at all, the number of voters in...

hot take: most of the 'it's working class racists that did it' hot takes are a display of the Democratic Party's inability/refusal to talk about class in a politically successful way

It's incomplete because it doesn't show how that compares to previous elections. The Edison exit poll (imperfect but afaik the best info available at this stage) makes interesting reading. Specifically, as summarized nicely in this Twitter thread, Trump gained virtually no ground among white...

Drafted a few decks, really like it so far!

starting to believe in this late capitalism thing

you need really high artifact density or the density is really high af?

Animation Module This seems pretty nuts in a dedicated counters deck

We've had a lot of debates recently about how much fixing to run and what it should look like, as well as the problems with certain colour pairs. A long time ago we complained about the Gravecrawler-Griselbrand problem - most Cube designers assign the same number of cards to each colour as if...

Peregrine Drake emergency banned in Pauper, lol

Scrubbed out of GP Warsaw. Doing badly at back-to-back GPs is rough, not just because of the time/money spent but because I see people I know doing well and I want to be up there too. Lessons learned: - I find travelling stressful/exhausting at the best of times, and drawn-out international...

Gonti, Lord of Luxury Gonti has been surprisingly good for me in Standard in ways that should carry over to Cube. We talk a lot about an awkward pincer movement that affects design nowadays: ETB spam is obnoxious but creatures need to be very good by themselves or leave something behind to...

how about an old classic: Fork

Categorically labelling something as GRBS is a bit misleading; is FTK much more than an efficient 2-for-1? What if there are lots of token makers, first strikers, and so on that make its body less effective, or the best midgame threats have >4 toughness? How often does Managorger Hydra get out...

I say this a lot but I'm about ready to create a new Cube or overhaul my main one just to play with all the sweet cards they print in these extra sets

Love Reyhan 《Crystalline Crawler》 (4) Converge; Crystalline Crawler enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each color of mana spent to cast it. Remove a +1/+1 counter from Crystalline Crawler：Add one mana of any color to your mana pool. (Ｔ)：Put a +1/+1 counter on...

oh I probably should have explained that lol those (and the fetches) are placeholders for 'shockland of your choice' and 'fetchland of your choice'

Your Cube is always fun to draft! I don't have a Pod addiction, I swear... Curious about: Skywhaler's Shot, Scour the Laboratory, Kozilek (which felt unrealistic even in the ramp decks)
