Yeah I personally am way more of a hater for the actual Universes Beyond stuff than I am for anything like this. Maybe it's just because I honestly don't really care for high fantasy that much in general, I always liked the more sci-fi leaning stuff that the game has had for years with the...

I wonder if some of the trouble you've been having with making this cube work is rooted in the fact that you're sort of trying to combine a lot of traditional high power fair cube heuristics and card choices with a cube where people are trying to somewhat fairly cast 8 mana spells. Not quite...

you guys are all talking to Brad like the green goblin mask

I think you can keep it an Eldrazi cube without including C mana. It's not like that was what the Eldrazi were about in their original and most iconic form. For me the fact that the big Eldrazi could go in any mana base back then was one of the cool things about them.

Updates Nothing new right now, I haven't been particularly focused on Magic lately. I've got some stuff on standby that I'd like to try out, but I'll do that when I inevitably feel like it. Fine with just getting more reps on the current iteration of the cube. People overall seem to like where...

I run like one 6 and one 7 (technically two more with Elvish Aberration and Krosan Tusker but those have alternative modes, and I guess Honored Hydra sort of does too. But Avenger of Zendikar is a pure example) in green as ramp payoffs and then cap out at 5 in every other color. I think you'd...

An instructional cooking video would be hilarious.

i expect a high quality video with live commentary about your emotional state

Gonti, Lord of Luxury is a fan favorite in my cube, I really like the tension it creates with the fact that the card stays face down for your opponent until it's cast, really adds a unique texture to a game. Claim the Firstborn is also fun, cool way to get a blocker out of the way and force...

Card would've been broken in half in constructed so it's probably good they didn't print it but man we have the power to make it a reality in cube.

I was a little bit disappointed in this set as previews first started rolling in, just because it seemed like a lot of the main mechanical themes were based on somewhat complicated mechanics that I have no nostalgia for because I was not playing for like the entire time between 2013 and 2021...

I'm not really trying to make a point about this besides "devoid is corny".

Idk if this was clear but when I say that Devoid cards "are not meaningfully colorless", I don't mean the fact that they are technically colorless never comes up and isn't relevant. What I mean is that they are not colorless in the way that we understand what it means to be colorless in the...

Yeah I just think it's goofy because colorless doesn't actually matter when the cards are not really colorless. They are colorless because a line of text tells you that they are colorless, they are not meaningfully colorless as we understand colorless in the context of how the game system works...

I found Halana and Alena completely busted in a low power environment, like game ruining busted. In my experience it's pretty well suited in "high power but fair" environments but I would never put it in anything low power again.

It's a bad mechanic! You can barely even call it a mechanic lol it's like if they made artifacts that say "Flesh (This does not count as an artifact") on them.

I'm surprised that they bothered to bring back Devoid as a major set mechanic considering every article and podcast Rosewater has done where he talks about it is like "people hated Devoid so so so much they threw eggs at Devoid and called it mean names".

Only took over a decade but they finally printed a new quest for all the Zendikar sickos like me. This one seems like it would be fun in a low power environment. I like the mounting tension that these cards add to the game. Quest for the Gravelord is a favorite among my players, and I think...

Oh yeah I should mention which ones I already have: Oust Condemn Smite Elspeth's Spite Lay Down Arms March of Otherworldly Light Not On My Watch Unexpectedly Absent
