If someone manages to kill me with door to nothingness I think I'm buying them a beer?

Such a banger! I wouldn't mind basing an entire cube around making this playable.

I really don't know if that's true. I'm sure there's an element of psychology, of not being able to read which of many potential lines is the one that your opponent is actually following. You play on the clock too, so you must be able to apply that knowledge under some kind of pressure. I'm not...

Really liking how blue is looking, seems like a nice "innistradian" identity right now, but I'm curious about what payoffs for all these cards you're imagining? Seems to mostly be enablers, but what are they enabling?

Very cool! How were these made? Sticker on top of magic card, paper on top of a card.. or are maybe the whole card completely custom?

sheoldred, whispering one I think it's supposed to be a phyrexian but in the "Sheoldred" faction, which based on her card I would assume is some kind of necromancy phyrexians?

I'm honestly SO excited about revisiting a recursive aggro theme in WB that can lean into both human tribal and zombie tribal with these new cards.

I mean at 720 you can't really do any tribes, right?

Also I think a real thing that can happen with scry-shock is that you, as the aggro player, really need to draw a removal spell or a hasty attacker to get around the opponents blocker, and can toss this in their face before your draw step to get slightly better odds at getting an out.

Yeah, there's not enough burn in most cubes to not have it get distributed pretty evenly among player. It'll get split between anyone in red, and the people that might speculate on a burn spell even if they're not in those colors yet.

Man I'm down for some "regular" magic! I've felt like some of the recent sets have been pretty out there, so it's nice to contrast that with something familiar.

Do you have any pictures of your physical custom land cards?

I think custom "cycle completers" for lands are probably a very light way to dip into customs. I'm not conceptually a fan of customs, but here we're really only taking an existing card and replacing every mention of one land type and replacing it with another.

Yeah, didn't grillo come up with that term to better describe a deck that tries to go off around the mid-game with a barrage of spells that all give some incremental value, like prowess?

I've enjoyed playing chess at times. I also really liked Queen's Gambit.

Yeah, I often think a good measure of "fun" is how densely an activity is packed with meaningful decision. What meaningful is, will of course be context dependent, but I suppose a rule of thumb is that you should feel like things are the way they are in the game to a large degree because of the...

Ok so I have a tag and we're one card down, so unless I'm misunderstanding I'll go ahead and add a card for my new pet deck. Glimmer Bairn
