Damage on the stack for older cubes. Balance - Most fun card ever? stopping midrange/goodstuff from being the best decks Pw v. non-pw

Has anyone kept-up with the current Netrunner scene? I kind of fell out of it when my collection was destroyed by fire, but I would love to know how the game is developing.

I saw your list & meant to comment but haven't managed to do so. I'd be interested in hearing if players feel like aggro is 'boring' with gauranteed/nondrafted duplicates, or what player reactions to that are (outside of cards like Squadron Hawk).

I picked up these for long-term cube plans this week. Precursor Golem Runechanter's Pike

I've been looking at running 4, 5 and 6 person drafts with my small cube. However clearly the standard 15 card packs are going to result in multiple wheels worth of cards. Instead, I'm looking at running 5 packs of 9 cards. Thoughts or feedback? Apologies if this has been discussed and I...

Fetches grabbing Shocks/Duals feel like Shocks/Duals to me, with an added (optional) complexity of optimizing shuffle effects.. Guildgates definitely feel common. I think running pain lands would be fine, or even buddy-lands (which feel, to me, uncommon).

Is there a consensus on Slivers in cubes, poisonish? I admit I felt the inexplicable urge to play slivers immediately on seeing them in your list.

I kind of glazed over the creature-type matters spells, to be honest. I need to go back and just read through the Morningtide visual spoiler probably, comb it for missed cards. I'll definitely add another 'set' of disruption/removal, with a lot of excellent suggestions in there. Currently...

This got me thinking about the obvious parallel, at 4-mana, to Ral Zarek, a card most of my johnnyish friends wanted to love, but ultimately were forced to binder. I like the theme behind discarding (flames burn, consume, enables GY stuff like madness, etc.) and the "red matters" in her current...

If we drop the casting cost, she does become fundamentally better, so we need to make sure she's not broken. Thus, I suggested making her powerful abilities cost loyalty counters, instead of adding loyalty counters, and lowering her loyalty to make an ultimate not first-turn useable, which would...

I was thinking about this, since I agree that I would love to see this card kept the same flavorfully, but be playable. I noticed that FSR doesn't really mention her ultimate, and the problem (in my mind) is the -1 ability, although the +1 is really good, What if we moved the +1 to a -2, the...

I really dislike having Cinderhaze Wretch in the cube, but needed a black creature of at least 3 CMC to fill in an update. I don't like having +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters in the same cube. I'm looking for something 'midrange' that isn't already in the cube. Any ideas?

I haven't even finished drafting yet, but any cube that lets me play stasis+luminarch ascension.... is a thing.

I hate Mill, it's burn for people who want to pretend that they are witty. I hate Core Sets, they bore me to death. I hate many other things, and I'll have to just continue the list another time. I own Puzzle Strike (the Sirlin game) and feel that it is far superior to dominion, I haven't had...

Got a chance to test microsealed with a 720 card double-block Ravnica cube last week. Had a lot of fun, the power level was high, and the meta-constraints on deck building really added to the overall feeling. If people are interested I can repost some of the decks we played when I get home. My...

Got my first plays in of the cube yesterday, 2 rounds of Winchester drafting! Things went quite well overall, with the cube feeling powerful but not allowing players to run a single-tribe in most cases. However, Deathrender emerged as an issue due to a lack of disenchant effects (Reveillark...

Hi Tom, Thanks for taking the time. Tribal is definitely known as a poison issue, and unfortunately in this cube Faeries are not supported as a 'main' tribe, which is probably why the second deck ran into issues. It's certainly something I'd preface when explaining the cube in-person. I...

I'm getting ready to proxy out the cards I'm missing and bring the cube out to my FLGS for testing. But I'd like to reiterate, if people would just log in and jam a few draft decks (and save/comment on any impressions you have) I'd greatly appreciate it. It's worth noting that because the cube...

Not sure if a month qualifies for thread necromancy or not. In building my 2-4 person Lorwyn cube ( http://cubetutor.com/viewcube/7997 ), I recently opted to exclude all of the harbingers http://gatherer.wizards.com/pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=139485 because I felt that they...

So, extremely valid points. Admittedly my first thought was "All those cards are fun"...
