    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Scry X then mill 4 seems so weird to me, like you wanted surveil but nobody ever ended up putting anything but bloodghast in their graveyard and you had to force their hand. I don't know if you're saving your players from themselves or your players are saving you from your worst habits in this...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Alright, well with some fire under my but from a surprise draft request from my playgroup, I have finally done the thing: I have changed the archetype wheel. As shown above: -Aristocrats is gone -Artifacts moved from Esper to Mardu, and is now a more aggressive deck rather than a midrange one...

    If it's g for a 0/0, the net result is ivy elemental with trample and the trigger. That doesn't sound great? My cube is certainly fast enough (and there's no ramp deck) that the X >=5 text literally never comes up, so my gut is probably test it as 1G 2/2 at base (like you thought it was...

    RNA for me, but I'm pretty baised to that whole iteration @MilesOfficial edit in the survey link :P

    Article Slot efficiency

    Some people like optimizing a well oiled machine Some people like cobbling together a somehow functioning ornithopter out of duct tape and string Both of them play limited, and cannot stop arguing about what the best limited format WotC ever made is

    I feel ya, but a green removal spell that requires this much set up, I'm willing to give it a shot. Big true on the name though.

    Sets (LTR) The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth

    I'm in for cards that do a bunch of things when any of those things on their own wouldn't really have been enough. This thing...does a lot of things! -Split Second protection spell -Punch spell, but only when you're attacking? And only with nonvigilant creatures? (Prob fine) -Surprise blocker...

    Is sol ring card advantage? Is a hot dog a sandwich? :P

    I think that's fine with this many colors involved

    General Fight Club

    This sounds like a solid way to do this! Worth noting this works much better with flickerwisp than before, so maybe don't run some kinda DFC 6 drop but I like this implementation

    I always found fearless fledgling frustrating I that it only has flying if you've played a land, so your milage may vary

    Actually yeah, making this a creature is a solid angle

    The problem I'm having is: under what circumstances are you running a proliferate spell (or a dwindle spell, that is cute :P) in a cube that isn't built around it?

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    So I have an interesting question for you all: Clockspinning How would you make this card playable? As part of my invitational program (Drafters who either 3-0 or 0-3 my cube get to add a custom card to the cube) I often get more open ended submissions from those who don't do as much design work...

    Ah crap there is a card for this guy :P Supposedly that's what he was doing before he retired, according to the lore, so that makes sense. Sure, the designation of who leads that council might be something other than "mayor", but you get the idea

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I think basically any town needs a mayor, even if maybe in smaller towns they're not all that big about it. Durnan specifically is the owner of the Yawning Portal, a famous inn in Waterdeep, and the entrance to the also famous Dungeon of the Mad Mage. I was going to have him as a peasant like...

    Personally I just run 2x snapcaster mage :P I do like both of these designs, and I might even steal servo station given I run tokens and artifacts as themes in white. You think it's a bug or a feature this lets you lightning bolt something 4 times if you have the juice?
