I feel like the fact that you have to physically fit everything on top of the card probably keeps the spirit of it intact pretty well.

Yeah I'm a little surprised that they went with so many text-heavy and complex mechanics for a set that will probably be played by a lot of new players

Expressive Iteration is awesome! It's extremely skill-testing, finding the little corner cases where it's correct NOT to exile the land is always fun, or figuring out what the heck to do with it when you DON'T hit a land. Only real downside is that it strongly favors players that are already...

Yeah, I think most folks here probably would intuitively get this since we're all cube designers and think about this stuff all the time, but your average player might not pick up on it, especially since the "draw a card" is listed before the scry/mill effect, and folks are often used to doing...

I think scry+ravenous may also confuse players about when they're supposed to draw the card.

I love Anje's Ravager and I think it can function in a generic beatdown deck just fine! I think it's excellent in that it can be powerful in a deck that just wants to empty and reload it's hand asap, but shines extra hard in a deck that includes some synergistic payoffs for getting stuff into...

Not really a huge fan of this particular style of UB card. Had a similar feeling with the Doctor Who cards where they all feel like they're designed around being "clever" with representing the flavor rather than just being coherent game pieces that someone would reasonably design in a vacuum...

I think "longing"/"longed" is not like, entirely incorrect in this context, but it does have a connotation of "pining for something in the absence of that something". Maybe something like "and she dreamed of never coming down again".

I think they meant two tokens as in the creature token and the food token.

I like Skyclave Shade, pretty different incentives from most Landfall stuff. I also like Fearless Fledging but you may think it's a bit too strong with fetches.

I'm sure we all have plenty of gripes with the design of venture but considering Velrun is trying to build a DnD themed cube and the mechanic is from the DnD set and called "venture into the dungeon", if there's anywhere to try to make it work, its in that cube. Seems a little silly to me to...

Love this format for card stories, super cute and fun!

I feel like everything that I do with cube is just me trying to make Magic fun and cheap and accessible for my friends who are not nearly as obsessed with it as I am. Magic is such a good god damn game but the structure and economy of it is just so disgustingly predatory and it is so hard to...

Cathartic Pyre Love this card, feel like I don't see it in too many lists. It's really good! Rix-Maadi Reveler Really fun modal card, although I am just a sicko for any card that says "discard your hand" on it.

You can do whatever you want forever

I've kicked around a few ideas for aesthetically-curated cubes here and there, and I think it's a lot of fun to flip your usual card choice process on it's head. Feels weird and cool to look at the art first before you even begin to look at the textbox or the stats, and it is immensely...
