    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Woooow that's a nice very "scientific" way to do cube-building, probably it's a trivial thing but I have never thought of it that way. Now I feel the urge to build a cube from scratch with this strategy ahah. Btw, of these 2-drops I have drafted only DMU, WOE and STX so my opinions on those...

    Sets [FDN] Foundations (a new Core Set)

    A friend told me it starts on next Tuesday (the 22nd). I have no other source but I trust him :) I am also very curious, I have always been a big fan of Core Sets, I feel like they are necessary to the game in the sense that they should be the "standards" and the other sets the variations on...

    How does this work if I target a creature I control?

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    This is particularly funny also because as it is the text says only to reveal those cards and not to put the last one onto the battlefield :p

    Sets [DMH] Duskmourn: House of Horror

    No, this does not work, opening the second door does not lock the first one

    General Alchemy, Playtest, Funny and other strange cards

    I had this in a low powered cube where Arcanes with Dampen Thought was one of the archetypes, and this (obviously errata-ed to be an Arcane) was completely broken. I love this card

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Well, it's more of a Divination than a Thrill of Possibility though. I would still prefer the Seer, but it's closer

    Now I will have this idea in the back of my mind until I try it and it fails miserably. Thank you

    Isn't it in October? Like, 26th of October instead of September

    General CBS

    Yes please! It is something that always has fascinated me, but it's hard to sit down and build one! Maybe with some advice from somebody that already did it, we can help spread the format!

    Sets Captain America, Iron Man, Wolverine & Black Panther

    I kinda like these cards, they don't feel like 2024 overpowered cards with 150 abilities and without any downside. The Black Panther puts +1/+1 counters on lands, that is kind of niche and makes me think about strange synergies and combos. Iron Man may be broken, but you need to have an artifact...

    Sets [MB2] Mystery Booster 2 previews

    Now I really want to try to draft unsets this way though!

    General Riptide's P1P1 Thread

    I would also take Last Gasp from ravnic's pack, it's a great removal spell and I like to start a draft with some flexible option

    This is coming out together with Foundations, it's like a companion expansion

    General [Contest] 30+ Eggs in one Basket

    I am thinking about doing something with this card Sneaky Snacker but without blue and black mana cards, so the only way to play this is putting it into the graveyard and then drawing 3+ cards in a turn. Dredge, looting, Clues/investigate, things like that all seem interesting ways to make it work

    Card/Deck If this post gets 30 Likes, I will eat a Siege Rhino.

    Obviously draft chaff is not good for your health! But a Siege Rhino is a better card, so the flavour will also be better. Probably the most tasty cards are the P9...

    Card/Deck If this post gets 30 Likes, I will eat a Siege Rhino.

    But are we talking about reactions or likes? Because it has 29 reactions, but only 26 are likes ;)

    Sets (MH3) Modern Horizons 3 Previews

    Well, this is precisely the right time to do it, half of the set is Eldrazis, come on! If not now, when?

    General Fight Club

    add an archetype of things like Benalish Trapper, and play only trap music during the draft portion, and i'm in!

    Alvoi's Cube

    So, little update, since MH3 is approaching and will probably bring a lot of cards for the Cube (at least, I hope, for now I am playing 17 cards from MH1 and 25 from MH2, the two most represented sets after –obviously– Modern Masters itself). I decided that I want the archetypes to branch into...
