I've been having thoughts around these lines lately, to be honest - my previous patch included a few more multipurpose gold cards (four-ish per guild instead of three) to hold players to one splash instead of two. I haven't drafted since so I don't have data, but I think that it's going to lead...

I'd really rather do this with Unexpected Potential, wouldn't you?

draft Daretti, name him, cast him from the command zone while I'm not watching your game, have him tucked with Unexpectedly Absent, later fail to cast him with Abbot of Keral Keep's impulsive draw. Elegant it ain't.

I want a counter at {U}{U} that isn't Counterspell. I've narrowed it down to three options: Deprive Counterbalance Redirect Where I'm at on each: Deprive is basically counterspell, but interesting enough to dull my misgivings about how carefully I've tried to sculpt my counters suite. It...

wait we've never drafted together how did you know (god conspiracies are so swingy)

cascade into permanent / cascade into nonpermanent spell

you could also include more CC or CD costing spells to incentivize tighter splashes!

why would you even want a basic land when you could mulch-on-legs into a karoo

they were super wrong to begin with (a 5% 'whiff' bound of 'only hitting one creature' is unreasonably restrictive) and my cube has a lower curve and more good creatures. Even if it's just card selection, a one mana premium for flash seems okay in green - and that's one of the worse cases...

proxy proxy proxy bruh! bad spells and good lands is way better than bad lands and good spells, vis a vis preventing nongames. can't recommend it more.

control-on-control violence is the best most beautiful kind of magic imo, everything matters, everyone misplays crucially a couple times, and sequencing is so so so important! GEA is a good card but I also cut her because I was shifting away from pod's dominance as my cool midrange deck (now...

pretty solid. G/x decks that go long like to up their gas/non-gas ratio, Pod likes it to bring back toolbox pieces (or, y'know, four-drops), and it's a piece of redundancy in graveyard decks. Add in that it's maindeckable graveyard hate and forgives weak deckbuilding (oh no I used all my...

also not running the judge promo art for the Eliot quote is unconscionable

2/360, but I've thought about three. I run ABUR duals instead of shocks though.

I still like 'helicopter parents'

petting tiger sharks in the Florida Keys while on ketamine might come close imo Flickerwisp is enough for Pact, it's astonishing how little it seems to matter that you'll lose the game in four turns if you win in three

gold, silver and bronze star stickers (ilu dollar stores) might make cleanup a lot easier!
