    General [Lucky Paper] When Trivia Beats Strategy

    Background and Partner ... Erinis, Gloom Stalker Ghost of Ramirez de Pietro Dargo, the Shipwrecker I decided to try Erinis now and I'll probably do an alter where I draw some rocks or stuff covering the unnecessary clause at the bottom. Still annoying that I am forced to.

    https://mtg-cube.de/cubeopen-potsdam-2/ It's sold out but there is a waiting list in case some people get sick or something. Would still recommend registering.

    Is by chance anyone here attending the Cube Open potsdam in january? It's like the Cubecon in the US, just here in germany and I guess not quite as big but there are two dates each year, the other one being in hamburg. I'll go for the first time next month. Fingers crossed my cube gets chosen...

    A stupid cube experiment

    Well, if you still want to tell the story of dominaria, there really isn't that much. Unless you want Cheerleaders and Cowboys. but seriously, you should check out Dominaria United and Brother's War. Sweet sets.

    I think the right pick here would be either Chainer's or the Bishop, as generally useful sources of card advantage. But chances are I would take Wild Mongrel because he's just such a good boy That's not quite true in two ways. 1. It's better than straight up edict already when they are on...

    All this talk about the black in the pack got me curious: Why didn't you mention Do or Die? I've firstpicked this card before, it has the highest ceiling from all cards in the pack (except maybe Disintegrate for lethal) and unlike other edicts doesn't even become useless in the face of tokens...

    You could blink Charming Prince with Kykar's ability, then when the Prince etb's you could blink Aether Channeler with it, so you get a 1/1 flier!

    I would say anything where the EtB is, at least in some situations, better than the 1/1 flier. I also like it with cards that can draw you more noncreature spells with their etb. For example, draw a card might be worse sometimes, but if you have the mana open you can potentially draw into...

    I don't know yet either, but Talrand has been fine for years and that guy makes 2/2 fliers.

    Abuelo is interesting. It's a fine enough thread but would keep the blink theme in the gold slot. Do you think Kykar, Zephyr Awakener would also fit that describtion? Some cards I already adding: Pestermite Barbed Spike Grazilexx, Illithid Scholar Fleeting Spirit Stratus Dancer Helping Hand...

    I feel like WUx Blink is one of the more parasitic themes I currently support in my cube. It has cards no other deck wants in both the enablers and the targets. So I am considering, right now, to turn Blink more into a subtheme of a more general tempo/aggro-control/skies theme. Then I would just...

    @henkdetenk I would take Fiery Temper from that pack. Old school cubes often have few etb effects and removal is stronger there. I also love madness beyond reason, so I can't help myself anyway. If it wasn't Fiery Temper, I'd pick Disintegrate, Jilt or Deep Analysis, so this pack would lead me...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I just played some jumpstart games on arena and I got to play these two in the same turn: Zada, Hedron Grinder Fists of Flame I had six Saprolings and a random 3/2 on board. I drew eight cards and attacked for 51 trample damage. It was glorious. Now I am sitting here wondering how much effort...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I think Hunger should be fine as a common. it's essentially a one mana Oakenform that you have to work for a bit. It's not a combat trick really, because having creature die precombat is just so, so rare. I have no experience with Howl, but the fail case is a super expensive Ashcoat Bear, so I...

    Thanks for these suggestions, I bet you could make something work if you really wanted to. but I decided to instead remove the sacrifice aspirations from green. I came to the conclusion, that it's probably enough when three colors are supporting sac.dec anyway. Oh, and I just have to replace two...
