    Remember when people complained that comic was "exaggerating" and that people weren't arguing in good faith when talking about possible Fortnite cards?

    For me the issue is the disproportionate difference between the amount of text and gameplay value. While not the most egregious example, I think Gollum fails to deliver the latter for the amount of text it has. When Gollum attacks flips a coin. If the result is heads, remove it from combat. If...

    Perfect. I just wanted to check, because I wasn't fully sure!

    Rules question. If I put several counters at once on a counter (say, three counters on a planeswalker), do that many counters get put on Tchotchke Elemental or just one? Tchotchke Elemental

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    So far, I'm leaning towards thinking that trying to bring white and green into artifacts this way is a bit of a trap. It's not that it cannot be done, but if you already run Emry and Goblin Welder and the real Pod, perhaps Oswald just isn't necessary. I'm cutting some of my payoffs (like Tough...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I used to run self-mill cards in green, but I quickly found that, even if you are running green, it's better to use other colour's methods of filling the yard. The only exception in that regard was Survival of the Fittest which felt very centralizing. I ended up cutting it.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I've been giving a hard look into my cube and it seems to me that colours are pretty imbalanced. Most notably, I think the cube is fairly white-centric and the farther away you get from it, the worst your chances become. At a glance, I believe these five pairings work well: {W}{U} {W}{B} {W}{R}...

    We should make a thread where we take this cards and just write them normally. We could also remove "Partner" and "This guy can be your commander" stuff. "Whenever you create a token or put a counter on another permanent, put a +1/+1 counter on Tchotchke Elemental." That's it.

    Tchotchke Elemental I looked at the stats of this card on Cube Cobra and it seems it's "often drafted with" every single card in my cube. Because I'm one of the very few 150 geniuses that run this fantastic card I'm skewing the results!

    Jinxed Idol Spawning Pit Spawning Pit seems more "useful", but is the more fun and better rounded card of the two? What are your experiences?

    Did they really need to include Afflict as a keyword? Of all other keywords they are adding to this set?

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    Gamble is great. Mutagenic Growth is powerful, but it suffers badly from 24th card syndrome. It's a good card, but I always feel I don't really need it compared to something else.

    General Current Cube Obstacles

    I think the larger issue for newer players is the overall complexity of the cube, the difficulty of cube drafting itself and how many "traps" they can fall into. Just some. I run Mother of Runes and Dauntless Bodyguard and have run a third in the past. If you overload it, you end up with quite...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    While I decide which sac outlet to run, I'm going to include one of my favourite cards as a placeholder. In fact, I'm going to add a couple more so I reach 388 cards in the cube: Despotic Scepter Cruel Ultimatum Scrabbling Claws The reason is that I've been looking for a big red replacement...

    I'm still polishing the cube, here are some more changes I'm working on. First, some quality of life changes: Finale of Devastation -> Birds of Paradise Dragonsguard Elite -> Tough Cookie The Gitrog Monster -> Glissa, The Traitor Perennial Behemoth -> The Underworld Cookbook Selfless Spirit...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I like this one for the reasons you mention, but I'm afraid of getting killed if I reanimate it. They feel a bit fair for my cube, though they are solid. I'm mostly looking for targets that justify going into combo decks as opposed to just value ones.
