Manlands are manlands because they are strong and threatening. It kind of reinforces gender roles, but I don't think any nerd is going to turn into celestial colonade because of it. It's also kind of fun to picture a land with big burly arms, legs and maybe a mustasche. As often is the case with...

Pariah is more fun, but it is way worse. It's at best when you are losing, if you are winning or even it is pretty much 3 mana guard duty.

I like my rotting rats and fleshbag marauder but then again twisted abomination and pontiff of blight are pretty strong in my cube.

As ahadabans says it is probably too slow. If I win with that card it is probably going to be because of my opponents lack of mass removal, but then I might as well have had another creature. It doesn't look like it will help much with recovering the match after a mass-removal hits either. On...

Are we ready for this?

I tried this experiment in my cube a long time ago. But I don't make custom cards so I squinted my eyes and included Nivmagus elemental and the maniac were really dissapointing in game even at my then very low powerlevel. Maybe you could make nivmagus work somehow. But the maniac takes away...

I don't know who said it, but I think this incident is more akin to stealing someones baby announcement. It's a total dick thing to do, but we can't really know how much of value is lost, the cards were going to be announced anyway, and most if not all of the loss is symbolic hype for a product...

My cube was initially super low powered, so they used to be arguably the strongest tribe if you had the pieces and most of them were also warriors or shamans and played well with elves. This worked because the cube used to play like durdly kid magic at first (which was really fun for a while...

I had reach of branches in for a very long time. When it was in I didn't have that many flyers so it acted as slow inevitability, scary to play against but not unfair. It also works well with Kind of like a squee for a very green deck. It's probably too weak for most cubes here, but I...

I run ad nauseam as it is right now, because it's really fun to gamble. But my drafters are afraid of it ever since one of them gambled one too many times against grull. So I was thinking about trading it in for necrologia mainly because it looks "safer". The not really instant speed and...

Sidisi is a very high pick in my cube despite the difficult colors and oftentimes she is quite scary. But my environment is lower power than most cubes here and since my cube is tribal she is often supported by one or some combination of these guys as well. But doomsday really got me...

The only overlap I found between artifacts and enchantments was the theros weapons, removal and recursion. My current enchantment theme is more like aura/heroic than pure enchantment. If you are going to do a whole cube about artifacts and enchantments I recommend that you go real heavy on...

Was thinking that we need more tribal love in here! So I start - tribal, poison and how I handle it (within my cube). When thinking in tribal about cards there are four categories of creatures that i find useful. Some examples from my lowpower, all tribal cube but it should still be relevant...

Besides the obvious 1 drop mana dorks and Rofelos there is a lot that can be done with elves - like tokens (the tokens do not even have to be elves if you want to be sneaky about them being a tribe) hunting triad imperious perfect deranged hermit Trostani's summoner Elves also has some...

It can be done. Nonpoison tribalplay is pretty much the first virtue of design in my cube. Hi btw, I'm a sometime lurker but I think I can help here. Here are some things I have learned from my time building and playing a non-poison tribal cube - 1 Non-tribal play will be played even if you...
