    Card/Deck Human 2-drops

    Yeah, black 2 drops aren't good and generally aren't human. I guess you have Cartel Aristocrat, Underworld Coinsmith and Chief of the Edge, which are gold cards, but since you'r curving out from a champion of the parish should work fine. Chief of the Edge is a 3 power, no drawback drop that...

    Gaea's Cradle in my ULD I guess. Imperial Recruiter and Nether Void were cut a few updates ago or it would have been them.

    General PWs to Cut and UR spells to run

    I recently cut Jace, the Living Guildpact. Unsummon is better in my cube then most others. His +1 does work in my list. He's probably better in my environment then most cubes that aren't intentionally very low powered. He still wasn't interesting. I cut Ajani Goldmane. He's still cool...

    General PWs to Cut and UR spells to run

    I couldn't think of which U/R gold cards I run, so I checked my list. I don't run any. The closest things I run are Fire//Ice and Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest. I like Gelectrode, though. And the random UR value spells are cool if you need to ensure that those cards have a good chance of hitting...

    Seriously, I usually don't complain about card prices and just bite the bullet ordering cards I know are going to go down in value, but this time thanks to Jace Skyrocketing in price, I probably saved money buying early (assuming I didn't want to wait for rotation to buy when MAYBE it would be...

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    Root-kin just never seems to have the impact. Decks with lots of counters come up all the time, so he seems a shoe in, but 4/4 for 4 really isn't a good body. The rest of the counter lords work better because they give bonuses even if you get the counters later, Root-Kin only works if you have...

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    List is done. Vampire/Zombie/Skeleton is a tribe. Thrull Parasite and Bloodhunter Bat are honorary members. Warrior/Soldier is a tribe. Here is list of trepidation: Serra Avenger (Narrow Niche) Topan Freeblade (Boring/Redundant) Arashin Foremost (Redundant) Elspeth Sun's Champion...

    vennythekid's TECH Magic Cube

    You are running a ULD I take it? If you like the U/G explore decks, you should definitely include Simic Growth Chamber (and maybe the rest of the cycle if space is not a concern). I mean, its weak to triple wasteland and all, but its a nice post back up for that deck and it bounces Glimmer...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I have played Ooana's Blackguard fairly extensively. I sharpied out the rogue text on the account of the fact that bitterblossom is about the last card in my list that needs a narrow combo to make it stronger. Reckless Waif didn't like that decision, but she works for me so she had to deal...

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    So, yeah, I'm revising again and as usual its a trainwreck. Cubetutor list is NOT complete. Looks like 576 cards, which is 48x12, so probably too big. New featured custom is making bloodbond vampire a 1/1 for B. Mini-pridemate in black. Land binder is loving the new cards, though. I wonder...

    balance cube

    I love this list. The complete disregard for gridfilling is mentally liberating. No nonsense with the 1 drops whatsoever. I love the mini-commentaries on some of the cards, even if I don't agree with all of them. I'm not going to nitpick over card choices, its your list not mine. That said...

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    Its better if you have something like Flickering Ward or Reckless Charge, but it works ok. 2/1 bodies suck, but one creature not blocking often represents 2+ extra damage to the face that turn and can turn one attacks that you might not have made otherwise (you can attack with 2 2/1s into a 2/4...

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    Sometimes a new set comes out and people experiment with new themes and discover new tech. Other times people just play zoo for the 500th time. But its fine, because since you stuck a new 4 drop at the top of your curve, it feels like the first time all over again Ones 1 Kird Ape 1 Mogg...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Just added her actually, no actual experience yet. My fear is that she sucks, Black Devotion decks in constructed never touched her, but maybe something different will happen in translation. +1ing to get cards is always good and she can be a removal spell if needed, though its a nonbo with...

    General Draft Strategy

    Wildfire doesn't require any more prework then Elspeth, kills all of the threats and if you have anything on the board you win the game. If you don't have a threat on board, its still a wrath of god. Maybe if you ran lots of Tarmagoyfs its not, but it kills over 90% of dudes and most of the...

    Yeah, I'm sorry. I tend to exaggerate about 1/3 creatures.

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    We had a stupid deck once that was pretty good (2-1?) that had Meloku, 5 Post (ULD) and Exploration/Oracle of Mul Daya that would generate stupid amounts of life if it got started.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    My cube loves these themes and I only run 8 instant speed combat spells (not including stuff like darkblast). I think this is probably 1 cards too light at the moment, but more then that is completely unneeded as decks only want 2-3 of these cards tops. So even in format dense with types of...

    Sets Battle for Zendikar Spoilers

    I might have tried Volanic Offering, but once I realized you can't slap your Stuffy Doll with it I lost all interest.
