Yeah fair, it's definitely a lot quicker in becoming combat relevant.

If you're looking for a Dragonsguard Elite that neatly slots into everyone's cube, why not Deeproot Champion Yes, it doesn't do copies, but very few run copying spells in their Cubes anyway :p Imo the starting power and toughness doesn't matter as much if the other player is going to be...

Eloise is right around my power level, and as much as I love Dralnu, Lich Lord my players are too afraid of trying him so it might be time for a cut. It's crazy how many clues she makes cuz she doesn't care if it's a token creature that died, but I don't have a heavy artifact theme so even if...

More like, I'm running 30 card decks with around 20 or so creatures in them. For fringe cases, it could go as low as 16 but that hasn't been the creature count for my self-mill decks. Also, a little over 60% of my Cube is creatures. So if you used Tapping at the window on my entire cube you'd...

Yeah I completely forgot to hypergeo check it that'd be a lot quicker. Now, please don't ask me how I got this number, (I still need to post my Cube eventually but I haven't gotten to play it as much as I want). but anyway, I got 97~% for it getting 1 or more, (with some fringe cases hovering...

I was expecting this dude to only give Double strike to himself, how good would this be as a finisher for my Zacama, Primal Calamity and other Timmy nonsense decks? :oops: Man, I wish this hit lands like grapple with the past, but still a sleeper-hit I'll likely try out. I'm afraid of it...

Yeah I'm betting we're getting most of the Disturb cards on the final day when we get most of the Commons. I've liked most of them so far, I just don't have an Azorius guild so those are whiffs for me ;)

This card is sweet if you want a much less powerful Syr Konrad, the Grim that doesn't count discarded creatures or reanimated creatures. Oh, this good boy even triggers off of himself (which really isn't that great, but a good trick). Which makes me think I should stick with Konrad, but he's...

I'll just vouch for my pet card Breakthrough Being a sorcery speed blue one with nothing is tough so he also does a great trial of knowledge impression. But is constantly criticized "it's not the same bro!" One day maybe he'll realize just to be himself. Even just a 5 mana "draw four cards, then...

Honestly switching my Commander nights to Cosmic Encounter nights so I can play with people not familiar with Magic has led to much better memories but :er: this isn't the board game thread. So uh... More or less Reveillark Lithoform Engine Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker M'Odo the gnarled oracle...

Yeah it's pretty nice and pretty easy to get the effect going making it way better than claustrophobia and ice over (ice over still has those niche situations but in Cube it's pretty rare to get value out of a non-creature artifact remaining tapped). It's probably right around the power level of...

Agh, the reading is really getting me, I should stop :oops:

Imo I think ghoulish procession is going to make waves (unless it's a mistranslation). Because it counts all creatures. So Damnation your opponent's board and bam, swing for the win. That's kind of stupid, but it's a neat effect for control decks if you're looking for it.

Damn, reading is hard :p

Yeah the flashback and blocking immediately are the real icing, so it'll fit into my mental note decks pretty well. I would argue that the mana does not matter as much (it does for holding up counterspells though), since unless you have some combo going down you likely will not cast this on 5...

Ah it was pithing needle as seen here with its secret lair. Also is slick if Rise from the tides was just a little bit too good for your Cube. IE: only for me

Eh, I'll probably run ominous roost since its not just flashback it also works with jump-start, the new disturb, retrace, aftermath, abandoned sarcophagus dreadhorde arcanist, and so on, burning vengeance wasn't quite worth it to play on its own. But this may make a new archetype in my cube. I...

Yeah, despite the Shadowrun jab, I still think these all sound pretty cool. Especially excited for the Brothers War and Unfinity. Kind of worried about Warhammer 40k, it has great lore, but I hope they don't try to replicate the mechanics of Warhammer in Magic. Just... stay in the lore please ;)

I think they did this because Topps wouldn't give them the rights to Shadowrun :p

I love Heartless Summoning Quest for Ula's Temple And couldn't run either for a long time, I've gotten around to making the Heartless Summoning archetype work in one of my Cubes by the drafters getting two when they pick it, but can't figure out Ula, it really needs a high density of cards that...
