Good evening everybody, Maybe not many users on this forum use Arena, but if you do, for the next two weeks there will be a format that is very particular in my opinion, since it is halfway between a lower-powered Cube and a Masters set. They called it "remix draft" and is basically a fake new...

you have to check the "allow partial type matches" box after you selected both instant and sorcery

Mhh I slightly disagree on this, the disguise cost is hybrid, so a U/R player could have Dog Walker or Undercover Crocodelf, for example. EDIT: but it is right that, in putting the disguise cards, I am giving a lot of advantages to people that remember exactly what every disguise card does, and...

I'm curious: at a lower power level (let's say pauper cube style), how many disguise cards do you think is the right number to run? Like, I think that running 2-3 has not much sense since they lose a lot of the surprise effect, but do you think that having 10 in a 360 cube (for example, all 10...

I think he meant something like "oh I wish that the 2/2 white flying token were any creature type other than Spirit, since we are much used to Spirits being the standard for 1/1 white flying tokens" and with this statement I think I agree

I particularly like the new Deserts, both for a rarity-restricted cube perspective (taplands that deal 1 instead of gaining 1 are better in my opinion), but also for a potential new take on a "Desert cube", that is a concept I really love

okay yes, who went first can be forgotten but… we could just write it down at the beginning of the match (?) like, i don’t know if any of you ever played without any way of keeping track of life total, that is a BIG mess but is still doable. with a piece of paper we can just write down the life...

but then couldn’t this just be a “snow instant”?

How could this be possible? Snow mana does not really exist, it's just a shorthand for "mana produced by a snow source"

I don't think they ever did two cycles of allied rare lands in the same draft expansion. But they could downshift the Horizon Lands at uncommon :cool:

This is also for me the set from 2024 I have the most hype for, since I loved Lorwyn and Eldraine and this gives me the same vibes. I hope they don't ruin it. At some point I will have to build a tribal cube in some way or another ahah "enters" in place of "enters the battlefield" is sad and...

I assume you have already read the original article? https://articles.starcitygames.com/articles/whos-the-beatdown/

my favourite is the RTR one, but in my cube i have all the originals for consistency i will happily switch to the old-bordered ones though, hoping they won't be too pricy

I also was hoping for that. Also because one thing I really miss from the old "block" rotation was the mechanical development of abilities

You're missing the city's blessing!

No, Mark Rosewater said it's a 1-of, tied-to-the-character thing

This is probably my most common error, putting cards in a cube for a specific archetype and then realizing that not even that archetype wants those cards since they are too weak compared to others. Sadly this is not too easy to recognize early when you are designing the cube, but you can usually...

Well, we got Fabled Passage and Prismatic Vista in the last couple of years

very happy for you! your deck looks nice anyway

Would it be too good if you wrote "if you spent no mana produced by nonbasic lands..." ? So you could still use a mana rock to power out these one turn earlier
