I assume you have already read the original article? https://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/whos-the-beatdown/

my favourite is the RTR one, but in my cube i have all the originals for consistency i will happily switch to the old-bordered ones though, hoping they won't be too pricy

I also was hoping for that. Also because one thing I really miss from the old "block" rotation was the mechanical development of abilities

You're missing the city's blessing!

No, Mark Rosewater said it's a 1-of, tied-to-the-character thing

This is probably my most common error, putting cards in a cube for a specific archetype and then realizing that not even that archetype wants those cards since they are too weak compared to others. Sadly this is not too easy to recognize early when you are designing the cube, but you can usually...

Well, we got Fabled Passage and Prismatic Vista in the last couple of years

very happy for you! your deck looks nice anyway

Would it be too good if you wrote "if you spent no mana produced by nonbasic lands..." ? So you could still use a mana rock to power out these one turn earlier

Yeah it's interesting, you have to balance well the colours though, for otherwise the first few land picks become trying to steal the most powerful lands. You could also add something like Manalith in the deck, just so that there is always hope to find the missing colour, idk Anyway, I really...

Ooh I really like this idea! Were you playing with a shared deck or two different piles of cards?

German is not the only language with this problem though:

I'm not totally liking the general vibe/flavour of the set, it doesn't feel so Eldraine-y to me. Satyrs?! Anyway, mechanically there are a couple cards I really love. Some of the adventure creatures, the manlands, the aura tokens seem interesting, the almost-better generous gift, etc EDIT...

Are we discussing just art or also frame? Because if it is also frame then I have a clear winner: For the Temple Garden, I know I'm late, but in my cube I have all original Shocklands from Ravnica block, except for the Temple Garden because I opened one foil from RTR (from a Dragon's Maze...

Good luck tomorrow in the top 8!

Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre says "destroy", not "exile" though

Gloomshrieker?

I didn't see it mentioned yet, but in Lorwyn draft there was a U/W tapping archetype, with payoff like Fallowsage Veteran of the Depths Surgespanner There were also payoffs that cared only about Merfolks, but with a sharpie you can make them more interesting: Summon the School Drowner of...

Wait, they changed them so they are no more the same? This seems really strange since in the original block they were the same token, and I thought they decided to not do "mechanical erratas" anymore

In my opinion they shouldn't compete for the same slot, Saheeli is hybrid and the Iconoclast is multicoloured. I think Saheeli is better if you have to choose one, but just because she doesn't need a dedicated UR deck
