    sharzad (safra's cube)

    Wow, it's been a while since I've posted a cube update, eh? So, since I last did that, I've increased my cube's size from 360 to 450 cards, added cards from SOI, EMN, & KLD, fiddled with my custom card inclusions, added a full set of creature lands (probably the thing I was most excited about...

    General Too Many Lands

    I think many of us are running cubes where 3-colour decks are more common than you estimate. A Steam Vents is, given equivalent distribution of colours and everyone going 2c+splash or 3c, relevant to 3.2 out of 8 players (4 x 0.8). That's not particularly narrow, I think.

    General The Draft Exchange

    Drafted StormEntity's main cube and their YMTC submission, pulled off decks I love in both environments. Nahiri/Mindslaver control is great - a Trinket Mage / Meekstone package makes it even better. This deck felt really supported and like I had lots of options during the draft. Love the double...

    i checked out mtg sally's thread about the finalists and here are their reactions, btw: -wtwlf is, ell oh ell, praising the design of Klug's PT Cube and saying he did something similar. "By far my favorite submission...[it's] fun to draft and has a lot of historical significance to it. Newer...

    General The James and Jason Hour: Podcast Questions. Saturday, OCT 22, 12 Noon EST

    What's the best thing about being able to chat with other cube designers about cube design? What distinguishes this from discussing your cube with your playgroup? How can fledgling cube designers best benefit from the resources available at RiptideLab? Do you have a favourite Standard deck (from...

    Lost 0-2 to Kirb with this ridiculous pile. A fireball would've made all the difference I think.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    It's really good and I love it one thing I super enjoy about these Emerge-drazi is that you can still cast them for {8} if you draw them late and get the cast trigger, you don't need to Emerge them it's just a built-in easy mode - so RG ramp can and will totally play Deep-Fiend or Mindbender...

    It's not quite the same, but I provide unlimited Crumbling Vestiges in my basic land box instead of Wastes. People take them sometimes when they want a {C} source.
