    General Fight Club

    I wouldn't add Scuttling Doom Engine expecting it to be a big blue control finisher. It is generic enough that it gets picked up by everyone else. I love the card and use him myself (I call him Señor Scuttles), but I'm sorry he just isn't the droid you are looking for (although after writing all...

    General [Riptide Draft] Saturday 26 March 2016 @ 2pm EST

    So that was pretty fun. We had 5 drafters (Safra, Myself, Meltyman, Vennythekid and Marwatt) and 4 players (Marwatt had to leave). I decided to record what I was doing, in which I found it hard to talk and actually draft at the same time. I kept holding up all the packs (oops). I'll check out my...

    General [Riptide Draft] Saturday 26 March 2016 @ 2pm EST

    Friday is cool for me too. Although, that only makes 3 people at this point :\ I may check this out later. Thanks for the heads up. I doubt anything will go wrong when we use it, but it is nice to know what the problem is if we ever run into it. I have a domain, so I can run a mirror on...

    General [Riptide Draft] Saturday 26 March 2016 @ 2pm EST

    Since we now have the capabilities of doing online drafts with Penny Pincer (myself) or Jason's/Safra's cubes (Jason, Safra, James, Aoret) we may as well use them right? I think trying to do them every weekend was a little bit too much of an ask so why not just do them over the holidays? Since...

    Sets Shadows over Innistrad Spoilers Thread

    I just realised why it untaps only two lands. It's so you can crack a clue. That's pretty flavourful. If not a little too obscure for people to notice.

    How to Play or Host a Grid Draft

    Grillo has asked how I make the grid draft threads, so I thought I would help him out and anyone else who is curious (Feel free to add to this Safra, since you and Jason are the only other ones who know how). How to Make a Grid Draft Thread Easy method, PM me. I'll do it all for you :p Now...

    Eomund's (First) Cube

    I believe that 1 and 2 are just inbuilt to limited environments. The actual drafting process leads to improvisation and sub-optimal deck building. I don't think you can even really design for that. Being restricted to a limited card pool that you had to choose yourself enforces both of these...

    Eomund's (First) Cube

    Welcome to the forums. As with any first cube project, expect to come under a trial by fire. I have given your cube a couple of drafts to feel for the format and it seems like a decent starting point, and I can see what you are trying to do. Since you were nice enough to have a bullet list of...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    He has always been a fan of goblins, which is why he took them and the welder. The bushwhackers did a decent amount of work that I didn't think they would in this format. Being able to give your whole team haste after a living death is rather nuts. Will probably switch one over to a reckless...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    I got to move into my new place (I bought a house!) last weekend. After Game Day some people were keen to play so since my new place was the closest and there isn't anyone else at the house to inconvenience it was the perfect place. So even with barely any thing unpacked we cobbled together a...

    Card/Deck Astral Slide

    Maybe we should just change the name of this thread to [SCD] Spirit Cairn... (I'm sorry I mentioned the card :P) But to help throw it back on the Astral Slide discussion. After doing a bit of searching on Cubetutor I noticed that two users here have cubes with Astral Slide: Aston - Graveyard...

    Card/Deck Astral Slide

    Maybe we should ask Laz on this topic. As in his draw a card cube he mentioned that he was thinking of implementing slide but in the end didn't do so. Seems like he decided to go with this card instead: Spirit Cairn I can see why he chose Spirit Cairn though, due to being a close analog to...

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    Thanks for the drafts peeps. The cube was pretty much a blatant mashup for Grillo's Redesign cube and RavebornMuse's cube. It seems to be getting its own identity it just needs more time and tweaks until it is something that I will be happy to call my own format. A couple of things I am...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Krovikian Horror seems very user-unfriendly. It only triggers at end of turn in a zone that you forget about frequently AND requires you have a graveyard order. I feel it is probably going to lead to more sad moments of realising you forgot about it rather than the interesting interactions it...

    Kirblinx vs Grillo: Non-Black Penny Pincer Grid Draft

    I didn't mean to just attack for one. I was going to ninja then replay shrieker and keep up staff. Having an extra threat on the board could have been relevant. Plus I forgot to mill with the shrieker at the end of that turn as well. I got flustered from the one mis-click and I think it cost...

    Kirblinx vs AtlasPud: Non-Red Penny Pincer Grid Draft

    So this is a buddy of mine in real life. He wanted to give the cube a go and this is what we ended up with. I focussed on black and ended up in my usual GB grindy big mana deck with a blue splash: This was my opponents deck. He was heavy green early and had a decent amount of prowess guys and...

    Kirblinx vs Grillo: Non-Black Penny Pincer Grid Draft

    After a strong start winning the first match, I lost the subsequent matches and ended up going 1-3 in matches (3-6 in games). The deck was alright, I just had some poor draws and Grillo had some well timed threats. Match 1, Game 1: A Reclamation Sage and Ghitu Fireslinger come down to...
