    The idea of vice is great. A card the encourages players to actually play their cards? Amazing! But, in practice the thing just doesn't work. A much better way to encourage people to play cards is to design your cube in a way that playing cards is encouraged. One person having one card in their...

    I might have an IQ of 69 because I had a comical reputation for losing with recurring nightmare. That said, the card is just stupid. I could pick that thing up P3 P8 (not that such a thing would ever happen), jam it into my non-black deck and it would probably be the right decision.

    Ribbons is usually strong, dead dude + 4 life + card is game a lot of the time if you aren't in haymakerville. That's often a 3 for 1 that hits two sunk investments.

    I should post pics of my custom cards, you'd have a laugh. I considered rise of the hobgoblins, but never pulled the trigger on it. I mean, its an enchantment (awesome), hybrid (double awesome), it gives a combat ability (very cool), but being XCC just seems like it'll but too low impact...

    Ironically, with the goblins the issue was custom "buffing" about three goblins to get the critical mass. I'd imagine, however, you could instead creature type errata a few other cards to get a similar effect.

    On a related note, Edge of Autumn is strong with Titania.

    I think Modern Times is my favorite movie, but I haven't seen it in over ten years so I might be wrong.

    Havenweir is almost always worse then Tuktuk, which makes it ridiculously low power, but in the brief time I had in my cube it did did minor work in red control builds as wall/win-con. I think you'd have to be going pretty deep to want it, though.

    Fledgling Dragon will almost always survive wildfire. Hound of Griselbrand Tuktuk the explorer Hanweir Watchkeep, which has a good chance of flipping after a wildfire Koth is a "creature" of sorts that survives wildfire.

    I knew there was a card to bridge the gap between flame slash and Shivan Meteor!

    I was brainstorming for a while if Razia's Purification could be a valid build-around for some sort of wildfire-esque R/W deck, but it just didn't seem to be there.

    Basically the whole madness suite works. Mongrel->Beastmaster->Roar of the Worm flashback is pretty solid. Reckless/Arrogant Wurm works here too. Grave value dudes like Deadbridge Goliath is another angle that works. Lotleth troll gives you an alternate discard outlet (but its black. . .) as...

    I mean, there are some notable differences for sure, but they fit the same idea, but one as immediate while the other provides incremental value.

    I played it for a minute. It functioned as falter + fog with a burn a to the face back up mode. Its an ok card, but it didn't really do something I was interested in a gold card doing.

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    In an unrelated note, someone drafted cloudpost/glimmerpost for the first time since I threw it in the binder and it was pretty cool. Using manabreach and meloku to bounce glimmers for tons of life really fucked some decks.

    By putting cards back on the bottom of its library, it decked the other player. In another game it used to bow to put Tuskguard Captain back in the deck to search for with fauna shaman after it had discarded it earlier finding pridemage to kill some important artifact. In yet another game it...
