Looking for: Low-to-mid power white removal spells that are instants or sorceries instead of artifacts and enchantments. Trying to spread out my spells-matter stuff to be viable in white and it can sometimes be hard to do with so many Oblivion Rings running around. Looking for stuff that's not...

Updates Sphinx of Magosi->Body Double When in doubt about a blue top-end piece, always count on Body Double. You will surely never regret including Body Double in the cube. Draft Report for 4/30/24 Had the cube group classic this month of ten people RSVPing and then three people dropping out...

My requisite "card that I'm probably never actually gonna put anywhere but I will enjoy looking at it and thinking about it because it's funny" card for the set so far.

My process is generally: 1. Come up with a list of parameters for the kinds of cards that I want to go in the cube (themes, MV restrictions, color restrictions, no tokens, whatever) 2. Pull up a bunch of cubecobra lists of other people's cubes that I like that are doing similar things to what...

This feels like the right call to me, I've never really understood why so many people's attempts at this kind of thing always try to have an evolution mechanic. Like yeah it's an iconic part of the franchise but it's not like Pokemon are constantly evolving in the middle of a battle in the...

I think adding new stuff is one of the things that makes cubing like, a full blown hobby. I don't think I'll ever feel like a cube is "finished", part of the fun is that they're living documents and can be constantly tweaked and iterated on.

Anyone else not notice until like, today that the Spree cards have a little plus sign next to the mana symbol

Happy to talk about that stuff any time! I guess a few things to note: -Most of my players are not super experienced! It's entirely possible that the cube is secretly a total unbalanced mess, but that just doesn't matter because the play is suboptimal and this is for my friends and not the Pro...

Shipwreck Dowser feels like a more dynamic game piece to me. I don't think walls are particularly interesting to play with unless they're doing something really cool and weird. Dowser could fit into a wider variety of decks and will lead to much more interesting combat. I agree that neither...

Not a ton of automatic slam dunk shit in this set for me but a lot of stuff where I am looking at it out of the corner of my eye and saying "hm, perhaps". Good amount of cards that I'm thinking about just picking up to have in my maybeboard boxes. Lots of cool one-off designs here. I think I'm...

I'll probably never put Crackling Spellslinger in anything but I will look at it every 2-3 months and go "wow...so cool..."

Been playing this a bit and I like that they're trying out more cube-like environments on Arena but man it can be a little frustrating how a lot of the cube stuff tends to feel like a "play the most big things" simulator.

Man I wish Cactus Preserve was designed for 1v1 just because the art is sick. <---- succulents fan

that's chip from Sonic Unleashed (2008) hope this helps

C'mon man this is pretty reductive. Themes and ideas in stories are reflective of the real world and have meaning in that reflection even if they are not literal 1:1 representations. Fantasy is a means of commentary on reality, it doesn't just exist in a meaningless vacuum.

can't believe they thought they could sneak this sorry excuse for a train past the trainmaster

Where did the thing where people call the opponent "villain" come from I have literally only ever seen it here.

It is very funny that we went from the "everyone wears a trilby" set right into the "everyone wears a cowboy hat" set.

This card seems like it might be decently strong for high power but fair environments? Sort of a green Luminarch Aspirant impression but you get to double up on counters if the environment has a high density of fetchlands. I'll definitely consider testing this one somewhere. The last ability...

EDIT: lmao damn sniped instantly
