    General Interesting p1p1 Red Cards

    There are some real surprising picks in this thread. I mean, who first picks abrade? Not really dissing, I just find it strange. My picks goblin welder Daretti, scrap savant Feldon of the third path Ogre battledriver Mizzium mortars Trash for treasure Flame fusillade Pyromancer's goggles...

    General Interesting p1p1 white cards

    Seems odd to say you wouldn't pick academy rector pick one as there isn't enough support? If that's the case why is it in your cube? I would take rector pick one, great build around. My list eternal dragon Kor skyfisher Auriok salvagers Karmic guide Enlightened tutor Fumigate Approach of the...

    Future Cycle

    I think the card you are looking for is genesis For rally, you either want global haste, self sacrificing creatures, other ways to sac creatures or a ton of enter the battlefield style effects. Best with other ways to sac creatures, becomes a bit of a combo enabler, but mostly limits it to...

    The Penny Pincher Cube 2.0--Inventors' Fair

    The format takes a bit of getting used to. You have a vizier of tumbling sands in your sideboard which is mana ramp for your expensive spells. Would also play your one colour temple and cycling land. Also Grillo, your card struggle is set to two mana rather than three, which always sets me off...

    Raveborn Tinkerings: a bounceland format

    Thank you, that answers my questions and more! Gives me lots of food for thought. Thanks for taking the time to write that. I thought similar comparisons between harmonise and peregrination, and I have a soft spot for font of fertility. The number of cards to demote to ramp is actually really...

    A deceptively bad cube

    Add to the list of cards that stand out as being too strong: fact or fiction Cube looks good, will be interested to see what direction you take it in when you start tuning it.

    Raveborn Tinkerings: a bounceland format

    These changes look really cool. I've always wanted to play with peregrination, and now you've added it, I feel safe to give it a try too! Your comments about ramp have really got me thinking about what I want to be doing in my cube. If I'm limiting wraths to five mana, and reanimation spells to...

    General Broad Archetypes

    Yeah, I think this is the way to go, as I think it provides more opportunities for creative drafting, deckbuilding and interesting play. I do think however there's a limit to the number of archetypes that work/have the support to do this, but maybe I just haven't explored it enough. The ones...

    General Rivals of Ixalan (RIX) Spoilers

    I had two Sunbird's Invocation at the last GP, that was good fun. What are people thinking of adding from RIX? The only things I'm pretty sure I'm going to find room for (at the moment) are: tomb robber pirate's pillage

    RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPITER

    The rocks were fine, they don't need proliferate to be good, but it's cool when they do. These and the storage lands push you towards expensive/x-spells which is interesting in itself. The first couple of rocks can also be grabbed by trinket mage, so there's lots of cool little things you can...

    RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPITER

    I explored some of the proliferate ramp in my decision cube. Alongside the storage lands I had astral cornucopia Everflowing chalice Kyren toy Mage-ring network Also tech tolaria west --- Your first two black reanimation spells exile, so you'd need a sac effect to get the dragon bonus.

    Future Cycle

    I've been really enjoying drafting your cube, and I've been thinking about it a lot. I thought it might be useful to share some of what I've been thinking through, but please feel free to ignore it, as it's unsolicited, and might not be what you want to do with your design. I think I'm right...

    Future Cycle

    I think it's nice that you have brainspoil, as it's something that you don't often see and it's quite satisfying to construct something where you know you know you have something good to search for. Helps enable some of your deck themes or can just kill something. You can search for: world...

    Astra's 450 unpowered cube!

    I was talking about that deck specifically, two discards outlets and one red mana source means he'll be a dead card most of the time. I think these are your problems treasure cruise Fact or fiction Dig through time And to a lesser extent tinker Mulldrifter The first three are a lot better...

    Future Cycle

    Most of these changes look good, but you need to be careful when making such big changes. I'm a little sad about the removal of some of the cycling cards, particularly in your low fixing environment. Also bit sad to see brainspoil go too. I'd also double check some of your statements against...
