    Rasmus Riptide Cube (360 Unpowered)

    I actually really like Hero of Oxid Ridge for wide red four-drop over Hellrider, it's a really solid roleplayer that isn't as curve-warping (and it makes more 40s than a frat house with a molecular printer) Kessig Cagebreakers for Acidic Slime seems tenuous, why not find room for both? they're...

    n64 smash at 50% damage is where it's at. bizarre slugfests with really powerful grab/throw interactions

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    I like promos and alt-arts a lot so I end up with a miscellaneous bunch of foils. I'm not interested in foiling out my cube but I enjoy being able to play with the card arts I like the most. I think the aesthetic of a promo Mulldrifter is way sweeter than the Modern Masters uncommon i might...

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    This is a couple of questions so I hope you don't mind my attempting to parse and then answer them individually. -Is adding the ULD worth it? -How can I make it worth it? -Does it lead to richer deckbuilding? -Special draft for sideboard cards? -I think it's absolutely worth it. There is a...

    including undraftable cards is a good solution to the problem of too many undraftable cards e: to be fair he also calls a control/combo black section "a plausible direction to try" but then also says black aggro is the biggest challenge in cube design, aha dang dude have you tested gravecrawlers

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    manasplain??? e: also yes, there definitely is. i won my BNG prerelease because my finals opponent assumed i didn't know i could tap down my pain seer with my Shipbreaker Kraken, drawing the spell i needed to win that's a cute interaction but honestly it's not a rare occurrence for gross dudes...

    Counterpoint: both are awesome, the one I wouldn't run except in large singleton cubes is Ambition's Cost.

    I ran Elbrus in my Cube for like four months, and it got onto the battlefield three times. Sure, you can Tinker Welder Soldier Scry it but it's just so many more hoops to jump through than other targets. I like Bonehoard if you want to Stoneforge stuff, and Staff of Nin is an awesome fair tinker...

    hey, Eidolon and Giant are cute. (at least everyone knew it was supposed to be an enchantment block, a statistical improvement for WotC)

    I've jumped through that hoop for Kessig Wolf Run and Drownyard. Also, Engineered Explosives and Chalice count as trinkets, too!

    The 'Draw-a-Card' cube

    For a distinctly Prowess feel on Slide, why not Stoic Champion?

    Card/Deck Making Gruul do more than stompy, or make stompy Gruul more interesting?

    My first sixty card deck that I built all by myself was a Springjack Shepherd/Primal Surge deck. My second deck was a mono-blue Coalition Victory/High Tide brew (Amy Weber art, accept no imitators), and then I fell in love with Magic.

    barely-remembered sick decks are, no joke, my favourite thing about Magic.

    Cool, thanks for the reassurance. Gonna cut it for Kolaghan's and maybe make a few more Charm substitutions. (ash zealot is love, ash zealot is light)
