They’re right on par with the checklands, if not better! Not tapping for one of the two colors without help in exchange for always etb’ing untapped is a small sacrifice in a world of fetches and shocks.

This one specifically was the most gruesome for me, and I do not like the mental picture at all! ...

It’s a cool design though!

People don't run Sol Ring instead of Mana Crypt, they run Sol Ring because it's in every single Commander precon.

No, we actually have a sort of guideline here for gauging the power level of Commander decks (we used a publicly available one), and a critical mass of fast mana is actually indicative of a high power level. For out regular commander games we aim for a lower power level, so Sol Ring is actually...

They do where you play? Almost no one here in my (135 members strong) play group runs Mana Crypt, unless they are running high power list. Competitive commander is a very different ball game though. I'm pretty sure most casual commanders don't run Mana Crypt. Still, there's stuff like Dockside...

I mean, that left column looks mighty fine, but how busted is Mana Drain in your cube? The right column has two premium counterspells and card draw, which looks like a very solid start. I’ll worry about the threats later!

Same. Incidentally also really, really goated ninja enabler!

Didn’t know about this, looks cool! Can’t make it this year though :(

An approximation: https://scryfall.com/search?q=o:"~+enters"+pow<mv+pow<3+mv>2+game:paper&order=edhrec&as=grid&unique=cards Fun fact: Your two examples happen to be in the top 25 results for this query :)

So close. Just remove the “Creatures you control have” and the quotes, and change “this creature” to “a creature you control”, and you’re there!

With some good flashback options available in Temur, I was wondering whether I could shape casting spells from the graveyard into an archetype with some customs. First up, the green Burning Vengeance! As previously noted, Temur has some seriously lackluster spells. Kess, Dissident Mage has...

He's (over)selling Magic in a positive light, but that does not mean his contributions to the game haven't been enormous.

I know that provoke has some mechanical pitfalls (instant speed removal turning a great attack into a massacre being the main one), but I love the mechanic a lot. I wish WotC would bring it back, or maybe an updated version (When ~ attacks, you may untap up to one target creature an opponent...

Smokestack is one of my favorite cube cards, but more and more I'm beginning to feel it's a trap. Even when you get the perfect deck for it, it's really hard to beat an aggro deck, especially one with recursion or one that goes wide, because those decks operate on a low mana curve and have...

Dear lord, and I already hate normal cleave… (Except on the [V]indicate meme)

It's usually around $30 for non foil iirc. Plus shipping, obviously.

No, that is on purpose. I've got a bunch of artifact synergies in my cube, and some delirium, so this has some additional upside as an artifact. Also, it's a clue, so it's an artifact, because clues are artifact.

Ok... what if I have multiple other ideas that are increasingly crazy?
