No single reason, but a combination of things. Red already has a lot of mana sinks with the dash creatures, Flameshadow Conjuring, Frenzied Goblin, etc. Being a tap ability instead of mana-only also gives the opponent some time to react and increases the value of haste granting abilities. The...

As someone who opened multiple laces as his rares in Unlimited, the business model for Magic has always been selling the equivalent of lottery tickets.

Not just that but it's twenty-eight 29/29s, which is like 812 damage!

Other creatures entering the battlefield is a broad theme across Naya. I've been using the label Arrivals to mentally categorize it, but there might be another name floating out there I'm not aware of. Griffin Protector Goldnight Commander Cathars' Crusade Kruin Striker Ogre Battledriver...

I tend to stick to beatdown strategies when I'm not super familiar with a cube, so here are some big, dumb, Gruul idiots. P1p1 was the Rampager, which was mostly so that I could stake out a safe archetype early. I wouldn't have hated one or two burn spells to help clear a path, but my dudes are...

Obviously you should just draft enough to hit the law of averages and be neither happy nor sad. Just an emotionless husk of a Magic player.

Those videos are great!

Let's talk about the storm deck I posted in CBS: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/880248[/url]"] Ones 1 More or Less Twos 1 Burning-Tree Emissary 1 Keldon Marauders 1 Ruby Medallion 1 Thermo-Alchemist Threes 1 Cloudstone Curio 1 Rift Bolt 1 Sailor of Means 1 Search for Tomorrow 1 Staggershock...

First off, thanks! I'm not too proud to liberally borrow ideas from everyone hear. Without Riptide, I would likely still just have a generic goodstuff peasant cube, which is obviously still fine, but not as exciting as what I've got cooking. As for my analogy, let me elaborate. Madness tends...

I don't see WotC making their reprint policy any more aggressive unless/until counterfeiting becomes a large problem or overall sales start to dive and Hasbro issues some commands to attempt to right the ship.

Since I can't connect to CubeTutor at the moment, here's my Cube Thought of the Day: Madness is to aggro & combo what Flashback is to midrange & control (Obviously it's not a perfect analogy, but I think it holds in general)

Almost every conspiracy from the first set is close to P9 level of busted in a regular cube. The ones in CN2 are more narrow or require you to pay some mana, so aren't quite as powerful. So yeah, if you're not running a powered cube, I'd keep them on the sidelines except for special occasions.

I'd assume that there will be both, with each pack having a guaranteed foil in addition to its regular cards.

I'll be posting a thread in the blogs side shortly, but I wanted to give a preview of what I think is a relatively non-poisonous storm archetype in this new project: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/880248[/url]"] Ones 1 More or Less Twos 1 Burning-Tree Emissary 1 Keldon Marauders 1 Ruby Medallion...

Enduring Renewal vs Seance vs Sigil of the New Dawn

What does an Enduring Renewal deck look like in cube? Does it need cheap/free creatures plus a sac outlet or can it work as a midrange finisher to keep bringing back your best threat?

Don't most tournaments (at least in the U.S.) use the game & match terminology? Maybe it doesn't translate in other cultures/languages as well?

I think the templating should read "if you lost the previous game this match" or "if you have lost more games than than your opponent in this match" as opposed to just having lost any games.

Yes. The Duel Decks version has less ridiculous art if you want an alternative.
