Mishra's Bauble - Works with TOL theme, acts as a make-your-own-scry with a shuffle effect (notably fetchlands) - Also a make-your-own-fateseal with Thought Scour/Predict etc - Free prowess trigger and enabler for Glint Hawk/Kor Skyfisher - Turns Trinket Mage into Wistful Selkie - Cheap...

Planeswalkers also overpower whatever cute midrange stuff you're trying to build into your environment. I considered messing around with morph/manifest but realized I would have to make some sacrifices: Mastery of the Unseen versus any of the Elspeths isn't a fair fight

flipwalkers are great! ...except Chandra, who might still be ok

yeah, I'm shying away from planeswalkers that make bodies every turn because even if you can deal with it in the short term it just makes the next few turns a boring slog. Cards like Sun Titan or Cloudgoat Ranger sometimes do the same thing but I find that less offensive (maybe I shouldn't, who...

Birthing Pod, take the plunge

the search function doesn't seem to like Sacred Mesa but what about the rest of you?

There's a key distinction between 'regulating' fun in the wider metagame and doing it inside a game. Maybe I don't want to play Legacy because I think the decks are too powerful or oppressive or whatever, so I don't find it fun; but if I do play Legacy, I'm not going to complain when my opponent...

Winning is the only major intent of any game, which makes it easy for both players to be playing on the same axis if that's their goal. You can play games for other reasons but those tend to be player-dependent and thus much less likely to be shared between players (hence the wildly different...

or T2 Augur, T3 sac, Unearth + hold up regen mana let's just run a bunch of Unearths

Raven's Crime isn't great but if you have Karoos/Loam/Prowess stuff maybe it's fine? I've always felt Augur of Skulls was kinda underrated. Mind Rot with Suspend 1 for 1B isn't too bad, and sticking it on a body makes it much easier to recur (which is great since discard scales well in the...

all of the above

this only confirms my impression that prereleases are miserable

To clarify: if you were designing a 'higher-powered' version of this around the bounceland theme without budget concerns, where would you start?

What do you think this Cube would look like if budget were no concern?

less slow cards, more Atarka's Commands

I didn't want to say it at first because I tend to be pessimistic about everything, but this set is really disappointing. Maybe the set-specific themes will be fleshed out more with the next set, but I was hoping for a lot more from the return of landfall/

so green has a bunch of ways to tutor up creatures, what are some good situational creatures (more exotic than Rec Sage or w/e) that are green or easily splashable?

Blisterpod is a nice upgrade for that deck

I wouldn't run either
