Tried the Coldlight Oracle / Naturalize mill deck, won a couple games and then lost to turn one Innervate / Yogg-Saron. Wow! Fandral/Idol is good but you draw so many Fandrals. Idol/Roots actually felt stronger. The Ice Block decks are really good but die to fatigue or poor draws.

I think it's a little weak actually, and I ran it for months but ended up cutting it. You know what's a cool black 6? Massacre Wurm The second ability is static and always triggers if you have it out, in case you're not sold yet. So good, real strong, but somehow not overwhelming in my format...

I don't think Upheaval is OP, I think the post-reset game state takes too long, which Crush of Tentacles neatly solves.

Okay, new question. Who's tested Kozilek, the Great Distortion? I want a scary dude that can be cheated in but ostensibly hard-cast sometimes (sorry Ms Emma). I hope the colourless requirements will neuter some of the deck's power vis a vis Grixis Reanimator, my current cheaty 'deck to beat'...

She's amazing. Splash damage on enchantments, feeds your yard, draws cards, and the ult is a real option that feels so, so good but doesn't always win the game that turn. (Angel of Serenity for three cards in your graveyard, get them all back, AoS for three of their creatures is DELIRIOUS...

Yeah, I vote Caryatid and Rattleclaw, Rattleclaw being conditional on also having 1-drop mana accel. Both let you curve 1-2-4 but Rattleclaw lets you curve 1-3-6 if you have a Hierarch in your opener too. If you want all your dorks at 2 mana, I'd vote Caryatid and Lotus Cobra. I would probably...

Counterpoint: narset is unplayable EDH garbage but certainly fun

In what world is Reach an earlier pick than Spawning? SS's floor is fine and its ceiling is extraordinary. Reach takes 15 mana before it's a compelling play and doesn't even block fliers, which G has real trouble with! I'm happy splashing for either colour of Spawning, unlike the heavy green...

If you like bite-sized stuff, Nate DiMeo's The Memory Palace is the best in the game.

Okay, i think i get it now. I've been calling this 'gestalt synergy' in my blog thread for a little bit, selecting my strongest cards to be even stronger in archetypal decks (and trying to flatten the power band wherever possible). Notably though I'd consider a blink FTK deck to have gestalt...

"pretty well designed" e:also this

ZR feels not so much win-more as, like, durdle-more, imo. Try Zendikar's Roil in fetchland formats or Primeval Bounty anywhere for the safra seal of approval

As part of recording the Castle AI bot's picks for its corpus the site also records your packs and picks, too. But yes, it's a Champion feature, probably my second fave after getting to easily include my customs.

oh man I should run Delvers. A little low on Swamps but I could pilot this for a year straight and not get bored. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/525533[/url]"] Ones 1 Brainstorm 1 Brainstorm 1 Delver of Secrets 1 Delver of Secrets 1 Duress 1 Ponder 1 Preordain 1 Thought Scour Twos 1 Augur of...

There's also the cheaper (but less niche) Bequeathal

Ship it, crew - we're done here. Let's work out how we're trading between partnerships and come up with decks, eh? (column 2 but only because I don't need to worry about Dom taking Cruise)

I don't think it's necessarily too strong to have 'target creature you control'. Sure, the card is good, but isn't that okay if we're trying to get people to play it?

Row 3, obviously.

Pack 14 is a great place to pivot into Mardu, right? Taking column 1.

Row 2 I guess? I already have a Lynx so passing on this one is probably okay given my fetch density. This is another one where I can't seem to get the code to post right but Dom you're on 13c2! Thanks for bearing with my handicap here.
