That was a long and complex game. I almost wish I would've filmed it to analyze (and show off). But regarding this specific situation we ended up being in in the end, Devil's Play could not have been one card higher or deeper in the deck or else I would've lost.

The problem is, exciting is subjective and context depended. Personally, I am excited by something like Roar of the Wurm, which gets me thinking how I can make best use of it. Others are excited by a "just cast me", all upside bomb like Gruff Triplets, simply because it's over 30 power and...

I once read somewhere, that they would've preferred to find a way to make traps as artifacts. Maybe, traps could be a cool version of morph for artifacts. Spears in the Ground {3} Artifact Trap-Setting (You may pay {1} and pay this artifact face down) Whenever an opponent attacks you, you may...

Shadows remastered is back on arena and I just had one of my craziest finale of a game of mtg ever. I was {B/R} aggro/madness, lots of two drops, Olivia's Dragoons, Ravenous Bloodseeker, Gisa's Bidding and a bunch of burn spells. I was fighting a good fight against a sultai delirium deck that...

Cascade is probably the 2009 mechanic returning in a new form. Maybe kewywording (and reprinting?) Treasure Keeper? My guess for the creature with a tempest sorcery as an etb is Extinction, as most of the others we've had already and it would be a nod to ixalan's tribal themes.

Some interesting ones. Equip 3 or discard a card intrigues me. And I assume the 1 mana cheaper aura is another humilation of my beloved Pacifism :(

Crazy to have threads up simultanously with Dr. Who, Jurassic Park and Fallout spoilers. MtG really has changed. Also, can any Fallout expert elaborate why a Junk token would impulse draw you a card?

Right, I really enjoy Gruff Triplets and Decadent Dragon.

See, I wouldn't mind the changes that much if more rares were interesting buildarounds, fair but beatable stuff or even unplayables, but many sets these days are already difficult to enjoy because so many rares and mythics are just stupid.

Do it with style, go all in. Carnophage Sarcomancy

That could be cool actually, randomly coming across some old reprint in it's original look in a draft from time to time sounds fun. Otherwise, eh. I dont like increased chances to run into mythics and bombs.

Did another draft at that bar in the back room again, although this time we've only been four people. Still had a great time! All four have been playing for around two decades, most cards didn't need to be read and games went surprisingly fast! The results: 1. {U}{R} Spell-Madness 2-1 (4-2)...

Ooh, I didn't see that land. I think I will proxy it at some point. It would look fine in a retro frame, with a different flavor text and set symbol. Nice!

I don't think activate only once is that much of an issue if it's on one or two cards in a game.

Neat boardwipe If {G/W} wasn't the most stuffed hybrid section already, I'd get very excited for this cutie.

I know, I said I'd only update the cube twice a year, but I had a really good and an okay reason to make an exception here ... I'm cutting: Lotus Cobra Steppe Lynx Akoum Hellhound Because I still have to balance landfall support since I went for 18 Prismatic Vistas last january. Cobra has...

Spawning Pit for me. I have in it my cube for many years, it adds a loz of small synergies. Multiple artifacts, threats that survive board wipes etc. Idol is mostly an aggro card. Might be stronger, but does less things.

Is this card too good for a mid-powered cube? Jessie's & Jame's Journey {3}{R} Sorcery Exile the top X cards of your library, where X is the amount of differently named lands you control. You may cast them until the end of your next turn. The format has a lot of nonbasic lands, so this can...

Wow, I've just seen Up the Beanstalk appearing in modern and even legacy lists. I was just wondering why this very recent draft build-around-me-uncommon was ~3€ already. Guess I should sell my copy soon lol. That was a card I didn't anticipate spiking.

This month I could really celebrate my cube's birthday. In addition to the 5 person draft recently, I yesterday had one with 7 people (it could've been 10!). After WoE prerelease I connected with dozens of magic players in Bremen. And yesterday, we met in a new location – there is a nice burger...
