I'll take a dozen D&D sets before I find the appeal in a single mtg set looking like the freakin' 80s. It's no rational behind this, I know, we've had sets playing on other past periods of our real world since forever, most of them are actually. But the 80s is just too close, non-mystical and...

Don't like that, takes away flavor, but whatever

Wow, I actually love all of this. It makes sense to have a core set for more than one year. And I like the Nyx frame used for enchantments. Minor nit-pick: Why does the cat say 'this creature' instead of 'Nine-Lives Familiar'?

Summer Update pt. 2 I think I found four more cards to change in order to improve the cube according to my goals. Out: Drowned Secrets In: Cryptic Command Drowned Secrets was never a good choice for the handful of cards that should push you towards mono blue and blue needs these cards to be...

As most of you might know, I try to make mono color decks possible in my cube, because they're cool. I do that mostly through ways that actually increase options for every drafter, like having a lot of colorless and hybrid cards and very few gold cards etc., but I also have 4-5 incentives per...

Do you want to have 'an Eldrazi cube' where at least two thirds of the decks care about casting some Eldrazi? because if you do, you should definitely include stuff like bouncelands and also colorless, because that'll be what people expect.In this cube I'd aim for the power level that lets me...

Leonardo Da Vinci is a really cool card. I like the full art and I don't dislike the idea of having a cool historical figure in my cube, BUT I can't run it. The reasoning that I see it as the next level of a spreading disease. I'd call 40 life sickness. This disease infests every card that has...

Cut white and add colorless. Last try ;)

I have considered the Prophet, but I decided against it for a very subjective reason: I loathe the artwork. It looks weird and also like the wrong kind of digital. Not sure if there is an artwork I like less in the whole of mtg.

You are so right, thanks for helping me understand the message of that data I've collected there. I am going to give Grim Haruspex a try. I don't like that it triggers only of nontokens, prefer the 'once a turn'-clause on stuff like Morbid Opportunist, but I like that the Haruspex adds another...

Thanks for all these sweet suggestions guys, wow. For now, I'll go with Unlucky Witness. It helps the struggling sacrifice decks in my cube and allows me to replace a 1-drop creature with a 1-drop creature. But there are certainly other cars here I'll keep in mind.

Thanks to @Onderzeeboot and his very true remark, I threw all the data I collected based on match wins out of the window. Then I went through all the decklists from the past two years again and collected data based on game wins (there were a couple drafts I had just tracked matches, but I could...

Ballad of the Black Flag The Arsir escape Valhalla If I reintroduce sagas to my cube, these two clunky graveyard value engines will be high on my list. But for the most part I am skipping this UB product like the others. Not because it is UB, but because of the ugly metallic frame.

I am looking for cool red cards, that do not kill creatures and don't go into aggro decks really. Give me all the cool low-middle powered things you know.

I enjoyed the first two games when I was younger. The fighting system was bad though.

It's a 2/1 with menace! That's quite a difference. And once that token dies it leaves behind the same bad shuko as Barbed Spike does.

Headsplitter is actually pretty cool. The red Barbed Spike and at least comparable to Hexgold Halberd.

9 out of 10 people don't realize it's plant-based meat for the patties when they don't know. So this was really unnecessarily provocant. Does maybe your subconciousness tell you, that eating meat is not justifyable in 2024?

Yesterday, I could draft my (for the most part) updated CCC with a total of six people, none of them my "regulars". As a designer it was mostly a success. As a player, not so much :p The lists and results: 1. Mono {R} Aggro splash {W} 3-0 (6-2) Ones 1 Bomat Courier 1 Phoenix Chick 1 Jackal Pup...

I've also had good results with Awakening Zone - Constant flow of bodies to sac/equip/anthem up - Ramps you to the big stuff - Helps to rebuild after a Wildfire effect - Endless chump blockers It's no bitterblossom, but a very flexible card that seems to be underrated in cube world
