I love Courser of Kruphix.

My God this is confusing

Yeah, Herald of Torment is the only card I'm looking at. Maybe the Lion King, but he's just so dull. I'd like to find a way to make Chromanticore work, though. We're close to the point where Replenish is a viable card.

Jitte is also an actual fun card with Pridemate/Archangel.

Am I the only one that likes playing cards with their actual Oracle text?

'a little'

I hate that the new gods are so terrible :(

I learnt this the hard way when I tried to Profane Command for maximum value :(

We take it for granted that 'poisonous' cards are bad but then we object to the likes of WCE, Jitte etc. because they slot in every deck and require no commitment/sacrifice. I submit that the best way to stop something like Jitte being a slam-dunk pick is to include cards that give you a strong...

I've built tons of decks in my Cube that don't want Jitte, and my Cube is more creature-heavy than most (from what I can tell).

what is a GRBS Jitte is an entirely defensible card unless your Cube runs a lot of weak (/'fun'/'interesting') cards, in my experience.

M11 gives Lightning Bolt as well! Here's an article that features the original list: https://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtgcom/daily/bd321

You can recreate most of the Speculation Storm deck from Extended a few years back. The idea is to Quiet Speculation for Lava Darts, then go Swath -> flashback Darts -> Grapeshot; you can also Speculation for Deep Analysis against discard/control, and Innistrad gives you Past in Flames (!)...

I'm sure if I went to MTGS right now, I'd find the forum oracles earnestly deconstructing this card's stats and claiming authoritatively that it's the 5th best white 3-drop and therefore shouldn't be played at 450, or whatever it is they do over there.

a playable card!!

or Standard /shotsfired

Gatecrash was a poor set for most cards but had a few cards with creative/niche applications that made themselves known over time, this set is just wholly unimpressive so far.

Worst set for Cube/Constructed in a long time?

Red and green each have a ton of good 5s though :(

'exponentially' was meant to have a strike through it to mock all the people who use that term inaccurately. now they'll think I'm one of them! and holy shit my prose is clumsy I could record videos I guess but I don't know how atm; I can figure it out?
