    Leyline of Abundance is a shitty design so I won't miss it.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Thanks for the thoughts Nanonox! Now that you mention it, it does seem totally true. I actually looked into Legion Warboss and the like, but they looked kind of snowbally so I dismiss them . Now that I've played with and against it in Standard and saw how they work, I think it's fine to add...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I've booked several weeks of boardgames and L5R so I have even more time to polish my cube. First, I built this "Lands deck" that is much stronger than it seems at first glance: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1194664[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Zuran Orb Ones 1 Burst Lightning 1 Elixir of Immortality 1...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Job search, 18XX and Dune have taken most of my time lately but I wanted to work on the cube a bit. It's going to take some time for me to be able to get it done physically so I've been able to change some slots and experiment. There have been no important changes, though. I've just added more...

    I'm glad they are making more sagas because it's a great mechanic.

    Personally, I think Llanowar Elves would have been even a bigger "problem" than Goose since it's repeteable. The mana fixing is good and with Elves you wouldn't be able to run UWG but I think Elves are more powerful than Goose and the white splash doesn't matter for Oko. When Llanowar Elves were...

    Retreat to Coralhelm What can you tell me about this card? Wadell runs it and I'm very intrigued. I run 20 fetchlands which seems required.

    Hey Nanonox. You are probably right about Birthing Pod and perhaps I should double-up on it. I haven't found Collected Company to be as difficult to build around because it's an overall good card but I'll keep it in mind. I think I'm going to add a 51th green card for a second Pod. I used to run...

    All right, I'm finishing my cube and preparing myself to make proxies and start picking up cards. Are there any cards you think wouldn't work? Anything that sees ugly to you? Let me know please! :)

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    So I've finally gone and filled up all the remaining slots. I'm going to do a round of cuts and suggestions from you guys and then go to the printer and start picking up the cheap cards. Let's get it rolling for real this time. If you have any suggestions or think certain cards don't work...

    Grumgully, The Generous Have you guys tried this card? It seems a great fit for RG

    General Current opinion on duplicates and other Riptidian/Waddellisms?

    I really like Looter il-Kor as a duplicate. I think replacing your Merfolk Looter with a second copy of it is a plain improvement. They are pretty much the same card except playable in more archetypes. Either way, nothing has improved my cube more than moving two double fetches.

    Odyssey is "Mark Rosewater: The set" and that includes his sense of humour.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Ah, no worries. So far what I do is copy the decklist in TappedOut, load the blink deck on a different window and then play them against each other. It's a bit annoying but hey, it works!

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    By the way, I've decided to cut Falkenrath Aristocrat. It's extremely strong. If it were either indestructible or had haste, it would be fine, but both in tandem makes it very hard to deal with. Bounce doesn't work, burn doesn't work, traditional removal doesn't work...Only exile effects do and...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    All right, let's work on this again. After thinking about it, I think the way to go with white in my cube is to make it a better support color. There are already a few white-centered archetypes so it seems a good step. Still, I would want to deepen de colour with an additional archetype. Glass...

    Sets [ELD] Throne of Eldraine

    Yeah, I think it's going to be unplayable in Cube. In my experience, Grim Tutor is hard to use at 1BB and this one is harder to crack.

    While similar, the Magus works very differently because you can recur him. I like that aspect of the card and I think it's key to making it playable but you might feel differently.
