    General Winnowing? aka Gatherer is still broken

    The only story you need to understand the inside of WOTC is the time they tried to hire people by seeing if anyone at tournaments was looking for freelance work at dramatically under-market rates e: no wait this is also explanatory...

    Card/Deck Three Colour Cards in Cube

    Weird, the land binder has been far // away the best option here. Other advantages over setting them up on another table: You can include notes to drafters (the few half-a-pick lands are in a separate section) Way easier to pass between players (we add lands during deck construction and once...

    General The Pro Tour Sucks

    the quarterfinal against an MGA brew is pretty sweet, the semifinal was three very tight games at some point i think the commentators talk about the legends tech shirt / the article this thread's originally about but i forget when, sorry!

    Stop trying to make the clan names stick in Legacy, it's not gonna happen. Shardless Sultai is okay I guess but everything else just sounds like garbage. Oh no I'm the person I hate

    General Fight Club

    I'll take your word for it, but I'm still not remotely excited. My reward for getting to six needs me to swing in twice, too? It's a six-power flyer, the effect is practically trinket text. If it had Vigilance (or Undying!) i'd be a little more stoked but it just doesn't feel resilient enough...

    Article Learning From Pauper – Rethinking Archetype Design

    Anafenza has been amazing, probably the best WW creature I've run in Cube and simultaneously makes for fun and intricate lines of play (on both sides of the table, no less!). run her asap plus you get to announce ghost mom triggers Both sets of cycle lands are in the ULD, and the white...

    it isn't even this, it's worse. The idea (as i parse it) is that people who are abrasive lack fun and joy, and if they had it they wouldn't be abrasive. Assumed corollaries: -social contact, even with PT grinders, is fun and joyful -playing Magic is fun and joyful, playing more Magic is more fun...

    Card/Deck Supporting Storm

    I can longpost (w/ decklists) tomorrow if you're interested but I've been pretty impressed with a group hug / mill control schema as far as big mana goes, as well as the comparatively more boring ramp/midrange shells. Mindshrieker has been amazing and USZ makes me feel so good. (also careful...

    Also if you have a soul reap and a mana leak you're really going to wish it were a doom blade instead. Control's gotta use its mana too!

    Card/Deck Supporting Storm

    Storm is one of the sicker mistakes in magic but it's so inherently difficult to balance and what you get is a solitaire puzzle that fizzles, if you even get your critical mass of enablers Guys Guys Let's collab on a cube w/ a vintage-style environment and end this storm thing (or...
