Man, I've made myself look like an idiot twice now in this thread. I'm gonna go home and have a good cry into my pillow now.

Does anyone have a link to Balduvian Trading Post? All my googling just leads me to the actual card, and I'd like to witness this madness for myself.

New Emrakul. She just has so much more play to her than the old one. You can realistically hard cast her, for one. Getting a turn to completely train wreck your opponent's plans is way more fun than Annihilator 6. There is actual counter play against her. Just a better designed card all-around.

Sewer Nemesis Say you're looking to add a self-mill theme. How is this guy?

Man, I didn't even think of it before, but should you break singleton in a situation like this? There is a substantial portion of the Magic population that believes breaking singleton makes it not a cube anymore. It's why I haven't broken singleton in mine: not that I care, but some of the folks...

Yeah, I really want to vote for the Penny Pincher cube, but I'm not sure what makes it great would survive the transition to 540.

I know I'm gonna add 90 cards to mine and give it a try. C'mon. We think about cubes more often and more laterally here than anywhere else on the internet. If a Riptide cube doesn't win, I'm gonna be deeply disappointed.

Forgotten Ancient This guy works pretty well with both of them. Actually, as long as we're in the Low Power Spotlight thread, how good is Forgotten Ancient in general?

Also, what the HELL is Goblin Balloon Brigade doing in this set? Wait. I figured it out as I was typing it. It's to give red a cheap evasive pinger to steal the Monarch off of someone.

This card is much weaker in a two player game, but the design is cool as shit. Kind of reminds me of Vile Requiem a little.

Yes.

... huh. Is that Duskmantle Seer in the art? Duskmantle Seer

Holy shit, I just read Grenzo again. He says each creature that deals combat damage, not just him. That's bonkers. He's basically red Edric.

I'm kind of in love with this card. It does exactly what you want in green from so many different angles. Sure it gives the villain the same effect, but it's likely that your deck can take advantage of the synergies while theirs can't. Plus, it subtly encourages good games by reducing the chance...

Huh. I sort of see it as the other way around. Flayer is the dumb beater who just wants to attack. Meanwhile, Varolz can be used as another sac outlet for Aristocrats shenanigans.

Hey, do you have a local store where you get to hang out and draft on Friday nights? Play board games at? Get any D&D stuff you want? Congratulations. You have just murdered them all. The secondary market is, no joke, the only reason many FLGS's survive. Yes, the reserved list sucks, but there...

So I've been reading through the mtgcube blog that was posted in the Midrange vs Combo thread and stumbled on this article: http://mtgcube.blogspot.com/2016/06/aggro-mill.html?m=1 At first blush, my thought is that this is really fucking poisonous. However, is there a way to make it not? Like...

I'm sure we've had this discussion before, but I'm too lazy to go digging through the thread to find it. Abyssal Persecutor vs. Desecration Demon
