I remember when Visara the Dreadful and Kokusho, the Evening Star were considered to be the optimal black 6-drops.

If you want a reanimation target that can also be used as a curve topper in a more controlling deck it is best to stick to mv 6. Grave Titan is a bit dull as it can be chumped indefinitely while producing tokens to gum up the board. I prefer Noxious Gearhulk which gives a solid two-for-one, a...

I’ve not played the Regent, but enjoy having the Whale in my cube. It fits in both blue self-mill and spells matter decks, and being able to recast spells is more interesting than being big. I prefer the art for the whale.

She has to attack with two other creatures, so you do need to curve out for this to work. Despite this, I also run Gallia as a card for Jund madness, as she also overlaps with Naya go-wide. Xenagos, the Reveller and Satyr Wayfinder negate the trinket text.

Thanks Trainmaster! Does anyone have an older Cubetutor cube (lower ID)? :cool:

Thanks for all the replies. I have played Hidden Stockpile and Maw of the Obzedat before with limited success: the former was efficient but unexciting; the latter powerful but overcosted. I will try Teysa and Finale out, but suspect that I will ultimately go back to stockpile: seeing the card...

Crucible is only obnoxious with Fastbond effects to play multiple lands in a turn or Stripmine-type land destruction.

The order of benefits is off for me. I need the mana smoothing early and the grave hate later.

Teysa Karlov vs dramatic finale I run both BWG tokens and BWR sacrifice as themes. Which of the above would you run as a bridging BW card?

The flavour text produced by the bot is very plausible. I can only assume that this is because WotC have been using a bot of their own for the last few years.

Is there an easy way to export the blog posts? My main cube there was number 74!

We used to use beer bottle caps as tokens. The bottle opener would be referred to as “The Tokenator“. Some beers would even provide appropriate images. Brakspear Bitter was good for Hornet Queen and Brains would be good for Broodmate Dragon. Brakspear top Brains top

I quite enjoy the Order of the Stick webcomic, but it is updated at a glacially slow pace. I never contributed to the forums, but the ones for the comic were a little odd: it felt as if the forum posters had to make up for the lack of story progress with wild speculation, pedantic analysis and...

It was good in retail draft. Mostly it would ensure your creatures outmatch those of your opponents, but haste could also create headaches in terms of what to leave for blocking. For it to have a place in my cube I’d want to be taking full advantage of the +1/+1 counters, but that is mostly a...

Thanks for all the replies. I think I will go for two of each and a single flex slot for my 450ish cube. I do appreciate how, if you ask the members of this forum to pick between A or B, you’ll learn that C was really the answer you wanted.

Two of each fetchland and one ABUR dual land vs one fetchland and two duals.

Even if online-only cards do create two separate games, won’t that mitigate the effect of formats being solved before they hit paper magic? I’ve been ignoring aspects of Magic for decades. I don’t see any reason to stop now. Also, the art for Davriel looks like it should be on a Netrunner card.

I like Emmara in green/white tokens, but have convoke cards and Glare of Subdual as non-combat tap effects.

Creakwood Liege Strictly speaking the tokens are 1/1 but function as 3/3, at least until the Liege is killed.

That is... kinda creepy. But I must say I’m honoured.
