    General Game Design - Threats vs Removal

    Patrick Sullivan had a nice rant on the topic few weeks ago or so, when he was discussing the newly spoiled Ravenous Chupacabra. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/215979455?t=7h29m54s It hits on this topic very nicely. The Chapin article is behind StarCityGame's premium paywall, but I'm sure its...

    General The Izzet League (UR)

    Hi friends! UR has long struggled with identity in my opinion, relegated to "spells matter" and "tempo" a lot of the time, without clear identity. I'm looking for ideas for strong, clear themes in UR with some nice anchor cards. What are you running in your Izzet sections? What...

    vennythekid's Card Ideas Blog

    Just me thinking out loud, with a place to put these thoughts: After reading through the RUG grid-draft stack thread, I really like the idea. I've also been looking for something like this for 2-player limited magic for when I'm inevitably bored over winter break. The dragon theme really...

    General Basic Lands

    When I went to GP Atlanta last year (KLD limited) they provided all the players with full arts from the new Zendikar block. I asked the organizers for an extra sealed land pack, and ended up with two! So that's what I've furnished my cube with

    I ran Runechanter's Pike in my Riptide-style cube for a long time, and it was hardly ever drafted, much less played.

    Hearthstone

    I got my first ever 12-win Arena run today! I was playing Mage/Hunter (Steady Shot HP) and had a great curve into Rexxar DK which sealed a lot of games for me. Coin + Archanologist into Hunter Secret was a huge tempo opening for me several times. My one loss was to a Paladin/Warlock deck that...

    The Penny Pincher Cube 2.0--Inventors' Fair

    What a nice write-up Grillo :D You've got me really excited about this format and I just had to give it a whirl... which turned out much better than I expected. I saw the Drake Haven P1P1 and instantly went to discard effects to try and abuse it. That led to an early Seismic Assault and some...

    Sets Modern Masters 2017 (MMA3?)

    This would be an awesome thing to have as an introduction to a Cube list or something. Reads cleanly and sets up the major archetypes nicely. Props to Wizards on this

    Hearthstone

    Is there a good Ysera shell in Wild? I'm thinking about getting into the Wild format and I just opened a Ysera as well.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    This feels like it should play like an extort card, maybe? Corrupted Bureaucrat {1}{W}{W}{B} Creature - Human Advisor Vigilance At the beginning of each end step, if you cast a spell this turn, investigate. Whenever an artifact is put into a graveyard from play, you may pay {W/B}. If you do...

    The Penny Pincher Cube 2.0--Inventors' Fair

    I've been wanting to Cube energy since I saw it in Kaladesh. This is exactly the style cube I've wanting to try to build and play, but my knowledge of how to build low-power formats wasn't quite there. The list looks super solid, and I'm excited to follow it's development. Actually, if it's...
