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

I feel like when they put out this many spoilers at once it gets a little hard to just like, process that much rules text and have coherent thoughts about them. Like by the time I got to the end of all the spoilers from today my eyes were kinda glazing over and I wasn't really totally...

This card is dumb as hell I love it.

Yeah Faun is awesome! My players have been really into it and it usually shows up in a deck if it's in the draft pool. It can be played as just a generic midrange value card that's just a scaling 3 mana Gravedigger, or it can show up in a variety of more synergistic decks. I've seen it in the...

listening and learning here

Feldon of the Third Path when feldon isn't on screen the audience should be asking, "where's feldon?" Shivan Devastator World's greatest curve filler get this man a raise Raging Battle Mouse Played one draft with this guy and was like damn he should have a movie contract Hell's Thunder Ball...

where do you guys fit your gun in your cube box

Here's a bunch of non-tribal cards that are self-contained enablers/pay-offs for various themes at various power levels to various degrees: Sidisi, Brood TyrantDuskshell CrawlerGeist-Honored MonkWharf InfiltratorThe Raven ManWoe StriderRaging Battle MouseThundering RaijuAftermath AnalystScurry...

Updates This month's updates were primarily focused on beefing up the 1 and 2 drop aggro options in red. I also slightly cut down on the density of +1/+1 counters payoffs, since I felt like there was more than enough redundancy there. You can find the full list of changes here. Updates are...

How do y'all store and present your basic lands? Right now I just have them in the cube box just hanging out there naked in a big stack in WUBRG order, but my players have a tendency to get them all mixed up together. I've been thinking about just getting five color-coded deck boxes for them...

"Force of Habit" is such a good name for a pitch spell I can't believe it doesn't already exist.

I get around all this by just only using dry erase tokens and not including any cards that care about the difference between a 1/1 colorless spirit and a 1/1 white soldier or whatever. Chasing down having correct official tokens in a token box has always felt like a fool's errand to me. The...

I think seeing a card named "Holy Cow" is the thing that got me to fully realize that almost everything about unsets has been folded into the regular game at this point lol. That new Malcolm seems like a lot of fun. Batching is cool and good and I'm always happy to see more of it. Don't think...

The problem with cards like Oko, Forth, etc, and even stuff like Fable, is that they're extremely hard to answer cleanly because they produce immediate value across multiple game pieces, and then produce turn-over-turn value if not answered asap. It's hard to have efficient removal that can...

I love a good self-contained tribal payoff! Some favs: CryptbreakerSkystrike OfficerThelonite HermitKargan IntimidatorBiogenic OozeNightpack AmbusherGoblin RabblemasterFalkenrath Pit-FighterBlade SplicerMaster of WindsWindrider WizardAvenger of Zendikar

I think Winota, Joiner of Forces is a lot of fun in cube. It has some really unique deck building incentives, leads to really splashy plays, and goes off in hilarious ways with cards like Hero of Bladehold or Kari Zev, Skyship Raider.
