    I'm Going Gaga for Grid Drafting

    I am endeavoring to capture more info for use in tweaking my active grids. Last weekend, Michelle and I had time to fit in a few "Ode to Onslaught/Odyssey" grids after not playing it for a few months (and possibly not since the last big changes were made). I neglected to take notes during the...

    General The Cube Contest

    I also gave the uncommon cube a try! My deck was fairly uninspired (started black-green sacrifice and ended up midrange, splashing blue for some card advantage); Cursed Predation, as many who have tried it in cube know, is not a reasonable mtg card. Went 3-0 too easily (as opponents made some...

    I'm Going Gaga for Grid Drafting

    hi y'all! I've been mostly lurking n' working the past half year... but also have managed myself a pretty regular grid partner and a lot of development has occurred of late! The big 3 grids have matured from their early incarnations and new creations are on the horizon (including a 3-color...

    Card/Deck The Selesnya Conclave (GW)

    Did you have many ways to kill the Glare in your cardpool / did they often make it maindeck?

    General Basic Lands

    I have themed basics, depending on the fantasy set/grid... all matching art ROE/SOM Fantasy set: mix of ZEN/SOM/ROE, All half art. Wanted an artificial feel. These are my favorite on my cube lands. ISD fantasy set: ISD lands. Boring but effective Older card grids: invasion basics. I like...

    Red / Blue / Green two player grid draft cube

    Loving this! How did the grid draft decks feel compared to the 5x9, 4 player decks? I adv a bit concerned all of the 4p decks had blue. Maybe it's a non issue out the decks and games are fun. My significant other is looking to emulate your structure: 180 cards, 3 color. I'll let you know of...

    I'm Going Gaga for Grid Drafting

    Hi Infinity! I've considered and started down this path before, but I didn't make it too far! Until now, I've enjoyed 144 cards as my "Magic number" (16 perfect grids) for drafting, with grid card populations having 162 cards and then removing 18 at random prior to drafting to add some...

    I'm Going Gaga for Grid Drafting

    Thanks for the interest and kind words! I have a few muses when it comes to inspiration, but I tend to anchor the design in past constructed or limited. Existing limited formats have been the easiest to explore due to all of content available. The brainstormed designs usually spawn from fond...

    I'm Going Gaga for Grid Drafting

    Thanks for the interest, everyone! I'll endeavor to reach out, update with my current thoughts and share current state asap! Foreshadowing: been playing a lot of MTGO 1v1 cmdr. Feel like I need to heavily rework a few grids too.

    General gp vegas meetup w/ other weirdos thread

    I wouldn't go to a GP if i were reasonable, but a mtgo friend I've never met in person is attending... i expect very little from mtg events and suspect to be underwhelmed. Anyone booking a last minute ticket? :)

    Hearthstone

    I enjoy any well-constructed HS list, but unless I feel I know enough to build them from scratch/tweak existing lists, no HS gives me enough utility to play at the competitive volume. 1v1 MTGO Commander may replace a lot of my HS time... which makes me, sad, because I spent $$ to buy in for the...

    Sets Amonkhet (AKH) Spoilers

    I'm with Onder on this; 2/2s for two mana and no protection/combat abilities look pretty measly in modern Magic. Speaking of Modern, I remember trying to play a Doran hate bears deck in the first season of modern and having a hell of a time against Wild Nacatl and Kird Ape, not to mention...

    Meddling Mage Grid vLWPWR session #1

    I run three. It is fine with bounce/Remand as well as other discard (and no Peek/Probe). I find Hymn to be boring, and BB is a terrible mana cost. Maybe the new discard and Entomber Exarch would give therapy some more mileage in black.

    Meddling Mage Grid vLWPWR session #1

    Oof, what a beating! Here's my deck (which changed to add Galvanic Arc or add Rewind or removed the 17th land... depending on how I felt): In hindsight: I lost a few games to mana issues. Maybe the 2nd Mutavault and/or 17th land were the issue. I also made some very questionable plays...
