    Diakonov's Cube (450)

    4 Welders seems like overkill to me. Daretti isn't bad, you can weld without summoning sickness and double looting is big game. It also isn't vulnerable to as much removal as welder, making it a little more consistent, even though you lose some of the silliness of instant speed swapping. I'm not...

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Suffer the Past This card looks good. Is it good? Reach with two types of indirect impact? Seems good.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Mystical Tutor Worth running? I like that it can act as a back up copy of build around spells. I like that it costs you a card to get that back up copy, so it isn't very profitable to use it to just grab utility cards. I like that when you include Mystical Tutor, you don't have to include...

    Card/Deck Multipost

    In my cube the entire 5post package costs 3 picks and you just take to whole thing.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I experimented with balancing act a bit and it didn't work well. Even running Ruins of Trokair and friends in the ULD didn't really tip the scales in its favor. The situations rarely arise where tapping 4 mana to cast it generates you much value. Mostly it rewards you for playing non...

    Card/Deck Multipost

    4/4 is really, really good. I mean, you might not even include all 8 in your deck, but having your choice of a 4/3, 4/2, 3/3, 2/4 or 3/4 split is really, really, really good. I run 3/2 and Vesuva and its been pretty sweet in some decks. One deck came together used Mana Breach, Meloku...

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    Wort is pretty good, right now I'm playing Grenzo that fills a very similar role in the exact same gold combination though. I don't like Warren Weirding. The alternate mode is basically useless and I'm not going to play an off color card based on fetching it with Matron. I'm playing the new...

    General The Pro Tour Sucks

    Magic has way too much baggage attached to it for me to consider it being "the best game", but I can understand an argument that the baggage itself is part of what makes the game great.

    Mise is just broken with all of our peeking effects. Predict would probably be more appropriate. Also, we already have Mistfire Adept.

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    The thing with dragons is that they all cost 5 or more, besides Phantasmal and Thunderbreak at least. Unless you are a running a figurative (literal??) dragon cube you can't include too many cards at those costs and there are probably non-dragons you want in those spots too, so you're never...

    Card/Deck Three Colour Cards in Cube

    I still have a handful of three color cards in my Utility Land binder and I still haven't decided how players draft them. Allowing them to take them instead of a land is backwards: if you are cramming 3 color cards into your deck, particularly CDE cards you want to cast on curve, you need...

    Article Learning From Pauper – Rethinking Archetype Design

    I don't know who started that rumor, but to the best of my recollection "combo decks" were heavily despised in the old days, with an undertone that their very existence was a design mistake which should be fixed. People played the good ones, obviously, because the goal of a tournament is to win...
