    Eesh, that's really gross. MCI's mana=2U was better, IMO, and mana>2U was more usable than mana=2U doing the same thing, which is super unintuitive. Well... they're the ones who removed MCI saying things would be better cause it would redirect to their site, which lacks all the functionality...

    Here's the example I always pull. Pretend you want to search for all the cards that reference +1/+1 counters and dying, or have prowess, using the advanced search, how would you do this? IMO: ("+1/+1 counter" dies) or prowess (go ahead, copy paste it into the Oracle text search field here...

    I was deeply upset by this too. Scryfall does a few things quite poorly, unfortunately.

    General Single Card Archetypes

    I actually see them as different. Burning Vengeance in Innistrad was a build around most of the time, while Sarkhan's Unsealing in M19 is not. I've been exploring the difference and different types of cards for an eventual 2nd cube and here's basically the litmus test: can you remove the card...

    The Modern Utopia Cube

    You might want to link to the cube list [http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/98102] rather than to the cube blog. I drafted this deck http://www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/967888 First picked Karn, Scion of Urza, 2nd picked Bitterblossom, and third picked Oracle of Mul Daya. Fell back to my roots...

    General CBS

    I had thought of something similar that I never got the make, but where the cards would be generated from a string. Like you make an algorithm to take in a string, and from it generates a card. Kind of like a hash function where the output is a card. A few issues: I was thinking of feeding the...

    A deceptively bad cube

    I was hoping the mix of evasive creatures + equipment could amount to something, but I guess they'd suck without the other part. It might be better just to try to get more regular creatures. The Boros Garrisons were a way to condense more mana into the same amount of land, but I agree they could...

    Genericco's somewhat twisted peasant 360

    Looks cool. I like the colour shift. It might just be me, but I can't see anything in your Strong Picks Underperformers Sweet two-card combos sections. The tags don't seem to work. I've also found out recently, if you separate them with new lines (enters), you can put multiple cards in the...

    A deceptively bad cube

    I worried that Soul Swallower could overrun games in a similar manner to Kalonian Hydra. They both require one turn to be bigger than the largest creature in the cube that can attack normally (Havenwood Wurm and Krosan Tusker), but Soul Swallower can just wait it out, since the cube has a lot of...

    A deceptively bad cube

    I'm not a huge fan of these. I could try Inexorable Blob, although it seems weak without delirium, it might be very strong without (it overruns defenders). Tilling Treefolk does nothing. I've got a few ways to recur lands and the 1/3 non-defender defending body feels un-needed. Colossal Majesty...

    A deceptively bad cube

    I got cards in the mail way sooner than expected: Augury Owl -> Elusive Spellfist Dragscape Zombie -> Blood Artist The following is rehashed from discord, so the writing style might be off. I'm thinking of replacing the following: Eternal Witness -> Frontier Mastodon -> Renegade Krasis ->...
