    General Promoting Blue as a support colour for tempo/aggro

    Your point about the early damage is crucial I think. But let's think about what blue has access to that other colours don't when it comes to aggro. Sure, it's not much, but if it's not overly pushed, unblockability is an interesting gameplay puzzle. Another way to look into making blocking a...

    How are you liking the Legacy format? I think W6 did some cool stuff for it post deathrite ban; we have the 4c greed piles again, but there's no mono-black mana elf fucking up turbo xerox strats. Is playing these Lands type lists where you want to settle in the format?

    I've cast a lot of Pyrokinesis, in Cube and not, and it's quite a strong card at a real cost. Combined with combat it's a real killing machine, and it even feels good to hit 6 mana and hardcast it. But it can't go face and it feels really cool to play, so if your players are accustomed to Force...

    to be totally boring and normal i think the effect should cost 5-5.5 mana, and the thing that intrigues me about Dream Leash is that it has an any-permanent clause and is therefore splash damage against walker proliferation. i would rather cube Leash and would rather draft Mind...

    Thanks! I'll re-proxy it. I have a big draft coming up and I've been tweaking and adding new cards - expect a draft report next month!

    Fulminator Mage is miles better than everything mentioned in this thread this year. You don't have to be hard aggro, you don't have to recur it, the format doesn't have to be 4c nonsense, you don't need a Wasteland format, he's just good at baseline and better if you exploit him. You know how...

    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    I've fucked around with it in Legacy and my opinion is that the card is really good and strong, definitely long-term Legacy viable. I have yet to Cube with it but I think it would totally fit in my Cube. I like that it's a goodstuff card that bleeds into the pants/equipment subtheme and also...

    I would run both, but Mutavault is probably cheaper because what are you doing if you don't have the full 4 seasons set of factories, am i right e: a note for people who haven't played with factory - it's more defensive than Mutavault because it blocks as a 3/3 but attacks as a 2/2, whereas...

    I played it for a while! He is best with cards like: Dark Ritual Collected Company Fatal Push At his best, he doubles your kill spells, or gives you a mana advantage, or flashes back the CoCo in BGx company decks. But he's pretty clunky and Bushido mostly serves to punish people for not...

    I'll be the dissenting vote and say big ups to Daredevil. it's actually a fine two-drop because of the first strike - it wins a lot of combats in my cube and is a much better blocker than some x/3. In a spellslingers type deck, Burning Prophet is an awful top-deck, but Daredevil is exactly what...
