Yeah this is true, but I was talking more in general… obviously this way + some hybrid cards like rakdos cackler really help 2-colour aggro. But I think that’s not the standard in the average cube

I would need an almost perfect manabase to play a 2-colour aggro deck. If I want to reliably cast both precinct captain and ash zealot on turn 2 with a deck, I want at least 13 sources of either colour so something like 3 mountains, 3 plains and 10 RW duals that enter untapped

I find this very interesting, since also you seem like you don't want combo decks, which is a thing most cubes without micro-archetypes do. Probably the way I would build a cube like this would be basically by having support for: monocoloured aggro, bi-tri colour midrange, and 4-5 colour...

Is this too cryptic?

"When you summon [CARDNAME]" to me feels more like "When you cast [CARDNAME]" than "When [CARDNAME] enters the battlefield"...

Wait, what rule text update did burn get?

I absolutely adore that yeti, but sadly snow in cube is hard. Either you run all snow basics (but it feels a bit too tricky) or you end up with an archetype that has to draft lands that in comparison to other archetypes has a disadvantage… sad

Yeah I can understand the general feeling. Magic felt more "magic" ten years ago. I was thinking, in the past years, that it was my fault because I was changing and getting older, but then I think about Kaldheim was the moment I understood that it was the game that changed in a way I didn't like...

I hope so, but I would be happier if it became an evergreen mechanic, as is scry

Are there landfall-matters cards (à la Disinformation Campaign)? Grim Flayer lol Curate in a lower-powered environment could be decent EDIT: they didn't give bushido to Jukai Trainee or Chub Toad though

Syphon Life is a way to close games in some Life from the Loam decks, it's not the best card to do that but in a mid-low powered cube it can work. Cenn's Enlistment is more of a slow aggro card, but I would play it only if I had some token support

In my cube How to keep an izzet mage busy is an Arcane and it is overpowered with any splice spell so yeah I guess they also fear that any new arcane could make old cards become too much powerful in some formats(?)

This was extremely powerful in Modern Masters limited :cool: the tricks that you were able to do with this jelly were great, between Sanctum Gargoyle, Faerie Mechanist and just other cheap artifacts. The power level was lower than the average cube though

When I saw this some hours ago my first thought was that it was a bad proxy done by a newbie that does not know what Fastbond is

GRN is Guilds of Ravnica, or Ravnica 3.0 for the lazy, it came out in 2018... Armada Wurm was in RTR that was in 2012 (not 2020) lol But apart from this, I can understand the feeling, I feel like I am able to really "live" one expansion each year. I kinda miss the good ol' times where we stayed...

This is so difficult! I'm going with a nostalgic choice: Illusionary Wall This was one of the first cards I owned and I loved how it protected me from everything (yeah I was a noob)

Psychatog is iconic, very simple to understand but at the same time very interesting to play, is an already consolidated card and I would never take it out. BUT you may just try one or two drafts with the new guy at Psychatog's place and see what your friends like better

RTR or GRN? :p

I love this card. It can be a removal or a counterspell or a draw spell or a save spell (snakeskin veil et similia). I think this could become a Cube all-star, and the fact that its effect changes (slightly) in time it's an upside more than a downside imho. I would have loved if it existed in...
