    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    This dude is wild, probably broken somehow cuz anything that gives haste to creatures you have can create glitches, but I'm interested how it will pan out. Also Now we know where WotC puts their hybrid mana symbol in multicolor cards (discounting cards like depose // deploy). The mountain...

    General The Sets of 2021

    Good ol' offtopic Riptide ;) I'm mostly with LadyMapi here, I can't play D&D anymore except begrudgingly. I DMed and played for too many campaigns until I realized that while I initially enjoyed the PowerMaxing and the character creation as a young lad it never stuck with me. I started when I...

    Card/Deck Boros spells aggro

    I actually recently switched Feather, the Redeemed for Anax and Cymede Which I've been testing, since I didn't have enough combat tricks for Feather, so she was mostly just a very good statted flyer. Heroic also works with mutate, although I run a slight tweak, and made mutate non-planeswalker...

    General Timespiral Remastered Timeshifts

    True, unplayable is a bit harsh. I really like fatties that have an alternative win condition, but since most Cubes run self-mill rather than mill, the dude can be a bit polarizing for those cubes and GRBS for others. Also the fact that he dies when the opponent has no cards in the graveyard is...

    General Timespiral Remastered Timeshifts

    This one is for me, this dude was what got me rehooked into Magic during Return to Ravnica block. (Absolutely unplayable in Cube and Constructed though, I'll probably just frame it on my wall).

    General Self Mill (without big reanimation)

    No love for Intuition :( and probably one of the most underrated cards Breakthrough For one mana it's one with nothing that draws four cards first (as a sorcery)! Blue is clearly overpowered :p but Breakthrough is totally something you can run if you've wanted one with nothing, but had the...

    General Self-Sufficient Tribal Payoffs

    There's also the best Myr Battlesphere More high-powered than it looks, but I always love playing it even without an infinite myr gameplan, but Myr Matrix Also is a slow self-sufficient card.

    Well we got a ton of spoilers today so I'll let those trickle in, but the two I wanted to talk about is Valki is interesting and perfectly playable, but is Tibalt Jank? A really fun to play around Jank? It's a very intriguing spot for a double-faced card. Where one is "yeah that's playable...

    Or you could use dry-erase tokens and counters if your friend group is artistic (or just likes drawing) https://www.etsy.com/shop/infinitokens https://www.amazon.com/Apostrophe-Games-Erase-Blank-Cards/dp/B01H4D8ITK?th=1 (for a cheaper more cheap version)

    There's definitely not any like grapple with the past. In wb there's some cute things like using gerrard's verdict or shrieking grotesque targeting yourself Only other things I found was manifest (but even with other cards this is likely not a good enough engine to pump stuff into the graveyard)...

    Me and Brad were just discussing how dragon tribal isn't quite there yet, but this is real nice. If dragon tribal becomes dwarf, treasure, dragon tribal then I think it may just work. I kind of wish rather than "sacrifice five treasures" it was sacrifice five artifacts to synergize with food and...

    Sweet we got Sagas. At first glance I wasn't too excited for this one, but the more I look at it and consider it, the more I like it. At worst 4 mana draw 2ish cards (put 2ish +1 counters on a creature you control) is pretty good. Especially in red white. I think that if it's destroyed you can...

    Yeah I'm not saying all of it is junk because there are some great support cards, but I don't think its worth it for the amount of cards you need to put in to make it viable just yet. As the dragons get lower and lower in cmc (while still being playable) I do think dragon tribal will be a great...

    Tribal dragons or any tribe that just doesn't have enough cards to make it in cube (yet). But specifically for tribal dragons, most tribe decks want to be low to the ground and go wide, but dragons are all big and stuff. Even though dragons certainly have enough support cards, a lot of it is...

    General Embrace the Chaos / Cube Occasionals

    Yeah, I've been using it and enjoying it, the only issue I've found is that if you play a low amount of removal in a distribution where you don't see the whole cube then the occasionals will cut into the draft, but that's something that I haven't really decided is a bug or a feature. Right now...

    General Embrace the Chaos / Cube Occasionals

    This reminded me that I needed to post that there is a way to test draft on cube cobra with cube occasionals. It's annoying to set up, but totally worth it. What you do is import all of your occasionals into your main cube, and then mark each occasional with the same exact tag. Unfortunately...

    I think Finale of Promise is a really good glue card. The X = 10 is basically flavor text (especially if you don't run many instants or sorceries over 5 mana), but in a low power environment will look like an electrolyze or warleader's helix without even needing those cards in your cube. I could...

    Oh no, I just a thought of Secret Lair: Game of Thrones with a bunch of Monarch mechanics, and I don’t want that to exist please. maelstrom colossus looks great, I needed something between Accomplished Automaton and Myr Battlesphere that wasn’t as easy to break as Aether Searcher.
