    Yeah, kinda same. Most of my friends don't really enjoy cube, and if I can't play the best part about Magic then why play at all? I'll still probably pop in every now and again, but eh, time to write that TTRPG I guess.

    I suppose the one good thing about it being a mythic rare is that it will have at least 2 different arts for you to choose from.

    A 3 mana rock... Oh right, I tend to forget that the card synergizes with itself!

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    as always, it depends. I personally think that rielle is probably a smidge less strong than drake haven just because they scale based on your environment and I wonder if that is mostly just due to the fact that you don't have a ton of enchantment removal compared to creature removal. But much...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It's better than a 2 mana divination, it's an instant speed 2 mana divination. the main scenario why I found it especially egregious is like, "player 1 keeps 2 mana open and passes turn" "player 2 does not want any of their spells to be countered so they pass turn" "on their end step, player 1...

    I think they would definitely be the strongest card in your cube, just because card advantage is real. Here are some things they do that is wild just in your cube miscalculationspitting imagethirst for knowledge and my personal favorite way to be incredibly annoying key to the city Also slightly...

    In a way, Yu-Gi-Oh has also been doing the same thing for years. Not sure if I want Magic going that route but I fell out of Modern a long time ago so I don't particularly care.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Yeah, Legends of Runeterra uses a very similar mechanic and it created a lot of fun tension. I think the main draw for it in LoR was that there was not a lot of premium removal. But once there is better and better removal then provoke just doesn't really work. (A problem I had in LoR after more...

    General [Voting] 30+ Eggs in one Basket Contest

    Yeah I had the same issue, with the doubling up into twins. I had a 90 black lotus cube and that was worse than this, but this is not much better. I think that having a flat 30 black lotuses as a dark ritual replacement would have been a better alternative than this. But I really wanted to go...

    General [Contest] 30+ Eggs in one Basket

    So immediately after I read the rules for the contest, I thought of one card. Or more accurately, I thought of the flavor text of one card. Old Fogey So, I decided to take the old man at his word and see what came about. At least with the Black Lotuses, I ain't putting in Plague Rats. It's the...

    General [Contest] 30+ Eggs in one Basket

    The egg would be doubled too, and there is no way there could be a deck in the cube without the egg, it's basically required. That's why I'm diluting it to make the drafting a bit more fun, get some more cards and archetypes and so on. This has been a fun project so I don't mind being...

    General [Contest] 30+ Eggs in one Basket

    last minute question, is it alright if we add our own rules and restrictions within the Cube as long as there is a minimum of 30+ eggs? Not sure if it should okay since what I want to do is make every card come with a free copy of itself when you draft it. And that's kind of not a 180 cube (it...

    General [Contest] 30+ Eggs in one Basket

    Yup, I have had to rebuild mine three times because it just wasn't there until I upped my egg from 30 to 90 and when I decided that it's okay that Pia's Revolution is "too strong" I think I will make it though!

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It scales mostly on if you are graveyard focused. I've tested it a few different times and it is basically a weird threaten, depending on the environment it can be worse or better (obviously). But it's also odd that it cannot target your own graveyard. I would play it in a multiplayer cube, but...

    Yeah, bloodmage has the slightly better modes while ratatouille has the better toughness (he must be a huge rat)

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    For this one I have been pondering it, but while I usually like new art, the m10 one just works so perfectly in conveying the mechanics with the art. Just something about the hand reaching out towards its choice that is just *chef's kiss*. The Julie Dillon art looks too much like the butterfly...

    If we treat cards like Vraska, Golgari Queen and Ob Nixilis, Reignited like bad removal, imo I feel that it should be okay. But you're absolutely right that there is definitely not a variety lol. Link for those curious. (There are some slight outliers cuz some call bounce removal and whatnot.)...
