For a 5 drop that goes well with incidental life gain, I still think you can’t beat Archangel of Thune I think she’s a perfect power level. She’s good on her own, amazing with support, but not so overwhelming that she can’t be answered by a Doom Blade. Plus, she has my favorite angel art in...

There is no universe where I would describe Ant Queen as “lower powered.” I have a couple friends with traditional power max cubes and Ant Queen makes the cut in both of them. Granted, you can generate stupid amounts of mana to really abuse it in those environments (Gaea’s Cradle, anyone?), but...

In my experience with Academy, it is either completely broken or completely useless. There’s not really a middle ground with it.

I don't know, man. I feel like if I'm ever hard casting this it's gonna feel awful. Sure, the madness is acceptable, but the base cost for the effect is pretty bad.

You'll be so close, but so far (I'm across the lake in Rochester, NY).

I suddenly like this set a whole lot more.

I go old school with Urza’s Saga. They’re the prettiest looking lands that don’t have the giant mana symbols on them. I’d run betas if I could afford them, but that’s the only upgrade I would ever consider.

I’m going to be that guy. Glare of Subdual I love this card. I’m not normally a fan of prison effects, but this card by itself creates a green/white control archetype that revolves around tokens. I’m enamoured with any control archetype that doesn’t include blue, so that’s how I justify it...

So my local store held a 'dino-sized' Ixalan draft (4 packs instead of 3) and 1st place won a FTV: Transform. I was literally the only person drafting merfolk in a 10 person pod, so I am now the proud owner of a bunch of weird shiny doublefaced cards. I have experience with most of the cards in...

I've never played with The Scarab God, but I've been explicitly told not to add it to my cube due to its completely OP nature.

I tried it for a while a couple years back. RRR was just way too hard to pull off. Molten Vortex is just about perfect, though.

They fixed Cheatyface!

*Ahem* FUCK PACK RAT. That one card single handedly ruined so many RTR games by itself. Sorry, I played a sealed PTQ where I 0-2 dropped because I faced turn 2 Pack Rat in both rounds. I have held a grudge against it ever since. It’s a genuinely unfun card, though. Don’t run it.

Hey, as long as we're talking about white finishers Angel of Glory's Rise What about this? This should reanimate a big chunk of a white section out of nowhere. There are also occasional broken infinite shenanigans you can do with it, if that's the sort of thing you're into. I'm actually...

This is literally the only reason I still stick to singleton. I suspect the cube would be better if I broke it, but I find it aesthetically pleasing to continue. Label me a hypocrite all you like.

This legit made me tear up.

Goddamnit. I never met him in person but you could tell from his posts that he was awesome. This is awful.
