Yikes three years makes all the difference. Wonder how many pyrokeneses riptide is running now

aeolipile

What about e) flavor? Braids making time for petty extortion, her hobby of guessing what you least want taken from you...

Despise and Duress and the like don't reliably hit enough for me to ever want to maindeck them, but on the other hand I'm not sure I like the play on 1.000 batter Thoughtseize either. For me the sweet spot is Blackmail and Inquisition of Kozilek.

Well it's an experiment for sure, and I'd have to say it's first time out wasn't a success. As a replacement for Phyrexian Delver it has a pretty low bar to clear, I'm mostly worried the 3/2 persist body might not be useful by the time you get to play it. Maybe once in a blue moon it'll hit a...

He has synergy with Stasis! Seriously though I like him better than Ajani vengeant, but he has the same problem where -2 the turn you play him to gain board control is a hard line of play to beat. It sucks enough to have your turn 3 or 4 wiped out by a skinrender or a flametongue kavu. But when...

Quick cuts and adds Precursor Golem got cut. Too all-around good to the point where I was considering it as the top pick of the cube. Interestingly enough when a cube owner removes only a single Golem, that cube owner does NOT have to remove each other different Golem he could remove...

Okay, since it's fight club, Acidic Slime vs Wickerbough Elder

Quick notes from prerelease, first one I've gone to: Went 2-0-1 with the above deck, with every match going to time. I even decked myself a game in the match that ended up being a draw, before I realized Pieces of the Puzzle had no business being in my deck and sided it out for Wicker...

So seems like I have more to say about Undying Evil. One more time, Undying Evil This is a ranking of some of the stuff it's nuts with in my cube, from extra nuts to mixed nuts: NUTTIEST STILL NUTTY WE'RE GOING IN, YOU KNOW, DECREASING ORDER, SO A FULL CATEGORY LESS NUTTY THAN...

We're bloggers now. We blogging. I've been given a responsibility to post inner musings, to expiriment, possibly even post whatever I want - which I interpret to mean 'annoy your reader', 'disregard norms of grammar and punctuation' and 'shitpost excessively'. So let's get right to it with...

Back to blue creatures generally: Riptide Mangler I'm serious, y'all... he's playable

I'm with Aoret. Experience counters are pretty dubious. They introduce a lot of rules baggage that adds up to a mechanic that to me doesn't seem to belong in the game. They're mechanically similar to poison counters, but effectively play more like emblems. Emblems are cleanly designed...

A man after my heart, that Colonel Sanders. Never could resist Bitterblossom, even better with curses, Nether Void and Sorin Lord. As for RTR/THS, definitely could have been better, possibly should have steered blue instead of red to compliment black. P1P1 was Pack Rat. [cubedeck="Genericco's...

I just ordered one of these to test out. Seems legit phyrexian ingester

Seems a little narrow. Much of what lsv says today about the card in sealed limited can be applied to cube:

In before communal riptide cube is like 30% gravecrawlers Edit: then again that does give me an idea for a cube...

Ambiguity from changelings? To make it clear that creatures that are both types still only get +1/+1

I dunno, Sorcery speed kills it for me. How much do we value our creature removal also targeting artifacts & enchantments? I don't think I'd be picking this over afterlife or crib swap unless I was counter drafting mind control auras.

The only planeswalkers I'm running are the Origins flipwalkers and a cycle of gold ones, one for each color pair. Right now, that's: The goal here is to make walkers feel special. Just 15 cards out of ~480, and they take work to cast or flip. Makes the gold section feel more special too. On...
