Wow James. That is some next level shit

So I went a little crazy over the last year and acquired something like 40 board games. I've been completely obsessed. Every time I read about a new type of game mechanism that sounds interesting, I have trouble not thinking about it until I've explored it for myself. People often tend to...

I think the only way you could properly tell a Lovecraftian story in Magic would be to focus on saving what you can in a hopeless situation. Ironically, Chris you mentioned the Phyrexians, who actually succeeded in conquering an entire plane. I would say those stories should have been...

Good points. I don't run trike due to the narrow reasons discussed. Though, I still suspect that Ballista could only be successful in lower powered environments.

Walking Ballista over Triskelion?

I use a color-coded system of stickers to indicate squad-picks (essentially what Onder described). Yellow sticker = 2 squad, green sticker = 4 squad, red sticker = special squad. I also use blue stickers on all Utility Land Draft cards to make it easy to deconstruct after the draft. I've...

If you're looking at that, also consider crop sigil

I've been doing a quad-squad of Myr Servitor for a long time now. It's good, I'd give it a shot.

eternal scourge ...with the added text: "When Eternal Scourge becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, or when Eternal Scourge dies, exile Eternal Scourge. You may cast Eternal Scourge from exile." That seems more like "immortal eldrazi" flavor to me.

Yup running both already

I was planning to add Ethereal Armor, but then remembered Hyena Umbra and added that instead.

I like TE more. I have a madness/graveyard theme in my cube, so it just makes more sense for me, but in your cube you also have great stuff like Scourge of Nel Toth, Advanced Stitchwing, Centaur Vinecrasher, etc. Anyone who gets to pull off that synergy would feel very satisfied. I don't...

Oona's Prowler is solid and gives you another discard outlet.

and the winner is Jesper Myrfors, by 1000 miles

Being able to interact with everything is nice in some ways, but that's also the part that I miss about Magic when I'm playing Hearthstone. It's more difficult to build an incremental strategy when your permanents never stick. To utilize synergies, you're completely reliant upon drawing certain...

I recently purchased some paper currency bands for wrapping up cube packs before we draft. https://www.amazon.com/Coin-Tainer-Co-Currency-Yellow-401000/dp/B004HO0RSK/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1480617941&sr=8-7&keywords=paper+money+bands It would be so hot to have some custom Riptide labeled ones.

I'd buy something from it. Maybe a playmat. http://www.inkedgaming.com/products/custom-playmat

Sovereign's Realm fastbond wood elemental

Almost exactly a year since I last updated. After Onderzeeboot launched the discussion about rearranging the color pie, I decided to look at my cube under that lens to see if any patterns emerged. I discovered that the 5 biggest shard/wedge themes I've been working on, purely by coincidence...
