    Sets [M20] Core Set 2020

    I love this guy. WB has traditionally been aggressive in my cube builds and this has two relevant creature types for those colors. That is a lot of words that do a lot of stuff that I'm interested in. Discard value, lands in graveyards matter, pretty nice mana sink. I just worry that it's a...

    You're probably right, but the designs are neat and I get a little drunk during spoiler season. Like, that frog is really cool. It's a mini-Gitrog! Why wouldn't I like that? Incidentally, this set is the one that finally got me to cave on fetchlands. I'm really going to knuckle down and finish...

    I mean, maybe DOM or WAR had a handful more cards. But jeeze. I wasn't playing during Time Spiral block, and this is like injecting liquid nostalgia right into my eyeballs. You can tell R&D had more fun designing this set than they've had in years, and that fun is infectious.

    Man, y'all are nuts. This has to be one of the best cube sets of all time. It might be easier to list the cards I *don't* want to test than the ones that I do. I'm still gonna go through and list the cards I'm into, so prepare for a giant wall of card images. Continued....

    It's sad, but I also haven't used MTGS in like 5 years. Nearly all of my posting is on Reddit these days (and here of course).

    My favorite comment about this card is that they should errata Llanowar Elves to be Llanowar Elf, and then just call this one Llanowar Elves.

    Yawgmoth is like the best aristocrat ever, right? He's about 1000x more interesting than Kalitas, that's for sure, though Kalitas is probably more powerful.

    4: Ping 1 can make combat math absolutely miserable for your opponent. The fact that it inherently comes with two lives and provides an onboard trick of repeat value inherently makes it worth two cards. However, this is cube, and if you're running this guy you're either an aggro deck that wants...

    Yeah, I hope it's the only one. I wouldn't want to deal with multiple colorless mythic bombs in draft. Meanwhile, this is an awesome little card that ticks like a million different boxes.

    Dominaria taught me not to be as afraid of triple color costs as I had been. I was thinking of putting a cycle of CCC cost cards in. Benalish Marshal I was considering Cryptic Command for blue, but I may go with this. Geralf's Messenger Goblin Chainwhirler And the new bear assault card for green.

    Oh. Oh my. I think I like this better than Path to Exile. Instant speed 1 mana removal is simply way too efficient. The sorcery speed 2 CMC cost is way more palatable, and the overload prompts the same interesting decisions I liked with Mizzium Mortars.

    Oooooooooooh. Finally a Serendib Efreet that doesn't feel like it's breaking the color pie.

    I like this as a nice value card, although you generally expect more bang for your buck from your 5-drops.

    Dude! First thing I thought of! I was like, "That's a Brass Cave!"

    I like Jace better. I'm of the philosophy that cards should be able to stand on their own, but let you do crazy things if you come at them sideways. Lab Man's fail case as a Grey Ogre just isn't anywhere close to good enough.

    Hmm. I almost think OG Deranged Hermit is fairer. I don't like this for cube, but this card is neat.

    Birthing Pod So, I was off Pod for a while due to it being tough to draft good creature chains. Then I saw this: Now I want to put it back in. Talk me out of it.
