Ugh, this "triggered" me for whatever reason. Must be due to my insomnia... This reminds me of a statement quoted by another cube enthusiast that I try to follow: This resonated with me a lot when I had time to design my cube, and hell, when I use to play Abbot of Keral Keep back when I did...

You are going to get me on this one: I'm not sure what I was expecting. I guess where one of the first reveals was Astral Slide, I thought there was going to be more cycling support overall. I guess in general, I was expecting WotC to do the typical set design thing of introducing 5-6...

Going through the full spoilers for cards I'd add, but first I must say this: Is Rain of Revelation just a picture of some girl during Woodstock '69? Psychedelic. I'm gonna be the dissenting voice as well: this set kind of disappointed me. Now I don't play Modern (and older formats), so the...

Am I the only one who looks at this art and gets Star Wars vibes from it? I will never not refer to this card as Darth Yawgmoth.

Me last night: "Man, my Red/Green gold section does not really scream 'Lands Matter'. I wish Wizards would add a Gruul card that helps with the Wildfire archetype..." Today: Man,.... I don't know what even to think yet...

General question: have any of you created an errata for cards in your cube, like minor ones? Like for example, for the sake of simplicity, say Lingering Souls or any other card that make spirit tokens make 1/1 Flying Black/White Spirit tokens instead of white tokens? Just to have the same...

Cool, thanks for the response everyone. I'll likely leave Garrison for now, but I may switch out for Warboss if the need arises... Now regarding Hellrider, he's probably going to stay only for my personal love for the card in addition to... well,... accidentally creating a cube environment...

I never thought I would have to ask the question, but for those who've played with these cards so far, which one has the most impact? Hanweir Garrison-Vs.-Legion Warboss One's slower but spits outs more dudes, while the other has the more immediate impact but less powerful (and is a weaker...

Alright alright shamizy, you silver-tongued bastard! You convinced me. Heh, while I still hold out for hopes for another gold color sacrifice outlet, I think Diva will finally be my Rakdos 5th.

So I'm looking at the Diva here and I have mixed feelings. I agree with shamizy - this crosses the majority of check boxes for the red/black archetype I'm running (I'm going for an aggressive tokens/sacrifice theme, using cards like Murderous Redcap, Falkenrath Aristocrat for anchor cards and...

S M A S H !

Guh... should not have posted that last night - without providing context, the question to what to cut loses all meaning. Thankfully, this hangover I have will be punishment enough. So, essentially, I'm just finishing up the last bit of my 450 card cube. Some cards are missing still, but am...

Apologies for mis-sellings - drunk on Kraken.... Help me cut one, as it's hard to do when drinking, adjusting green (I hate this color) and watching hockey at the same time: Borderland Explorer Duskwatch Recruiter Genesis Hydra Lotus Cobra Noose Constrictor Sakura-Tribe Elder Satyr...

While I respect Experimental Frenzy, I still prefer Outpost Siege, as the modal nature of the card allows it to fill other archetypes (Aristocrats, Aggro, etc.) other than a card advantage engine. I look at frenzy and can only see it fill aggressive archetypes that look to empty their hand using...

UGH Gideon Jura Gideon, Ally of Zendikar I have a link to my cube now, but it's under heavy revisions at this point in an attempt to reign in some of the power level (e.g.: had recently cut Splinter Twin, and am looking to cut Whip of Erebos (though cannot bring myself to do it yet, I want...

I'm surprised that no one mentioned the potential of Golgari running a +1/+1 Counter theme. It may be more potent in a lower powered cube, and it does come off as a tab bit "generic". However between Corpsejack Menace and Winding Constrictor adding some redundancy in doubling counters, and the...

Serra Ascendant Ajani's Pridemate Archangel of Thune Felidar Sovereign I'm hard-pressed to think of other payoff cards, let alone one's outside of white.

I guess this is my fault, as I should have said "Equipment Package That Does Not Include the Win-Swords, Batterskull, and Jitte". I'm actually surprised actually the amount of "disdain" both the Hammer and Wargear garnered here. Heh, maybe I'm spending too much time on MTGSalvation... Miasmir...

Been working on my low-end equipment package, and since this thread appears dead due to what I'm assuming M19 distractions (or summer, I suppose), can I get an opinion on the following: Sword of Vengeance Forebear's Blade Current Equipment for reference: [ci=small] Bonehoard Loxodon Warhammer...

All solid advice people, thank you. Bloodwater Entity v. Enigma Drake - I hated how both of these came out in the same block, the same color pair, same mana costs and the same "spell-matters" archetype. But Onder made an interesting point, and I will try Bloodwater first. If and when I do...
