    She's strong. Stronger than that. Stronger. Getting warmer. Still stronger. Keep going. Right by the 'busted in half' marker. Yeah, there she is. I cut it for being too powerful. She's really oppressive, and if you have any board state at all when you cast her, it makes it insanely difficult...

    Shit. I'm gonna have to put Gargadon back in, aren't I? And right after I went on a big rant about it in the Elegance thread.

    Holy shit. I just reread the text on Wharf Infiltrator. I didn't realize it was whenever you discarded a creature, not just when Wharf Infiltrator itself looted. Me right now:

    Don't do it, man. That thing wasn't even good in DGM draft.

    I went 4-0 with a pretty sweet UG deck splashing a swamp for Ishkanah, Grafwidow. Between her and Docent of Perfection there wasn't a whole lot that could stop me. Turns out 5/4 flyers with upside for 5 are good in limited. Opened both Emrakul and Gisela in my prize packs, so I'm quite pleased...

    Speculation. Scry 3 is really close to drawing a card, and the buyback cost is way more reasonable so you can run it in a prowess/tempo build.

    General Elegance in cube card selection

    Going back to the morph discussion, the only morph I'm currently running is Grim Haruspex, and I kind of wish I could just erase the morph line from it because I love the effect, and literally the only other creature with the ability is Harvester of Souls which is too expensive. I've been...

    General What makes you cut an archetype?

    Power level reasons. I am slowly cutting pieces away from the blink deck because it feels like it's starting to dominate every draft and it feels unhealthy. Like, it's gotten so bad I'm seriously considering cutting Galepowder Mage because it's too strong. Similar reasoning coming from the...

    Card/Deck Shit Thread: Planeswalker Tier List

    And as much as we shit on him/her, Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver is a very real reason to go into UB. Not sure it's healthy to balance a whole guild around that one card, but it is there.

    Interesting. I wrote that card off as nearly unplayable. I hated Wight of Precinct Six in Gatecrash draft and this costs 3 instead of 2! I still wouldn't cube it, but now I may actually draft the thing. FWIW, Owen Turtenwald was high on it during the Limited Resources set review, and it's...

    I copied it from facebook. I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

    I've decided my cube needs just little more burn that can hit the face. These are the current candidates. Flame Javelin Exquisite Firecraft Searing Blood Brimstone Volley EDIT - Note, this is probably just a placeholder for Collective Defiance until EMN comes out.

    Yeah, I'm leaning in that direction myself. What are some good UB cards to replace it with?

    OK! Started with Nissa, Voice of Zendikar into Courser of Kruphix into the Gitrog Monster. Picked up a Badlands speculatively p2p1 and got rewarded with Dragonlord Atarka late. There's a lot of really good stuff sitting in the sideboard, including Outpost Siege and Darkblast. Making cuts...

    This thread has fallen to the 2nd page! I took a crack at psly4mne's cube. First picked JtMS, because duh. 2nd picked Vendilion Clique. 3rd picked Balance, because it isn't. Went to town.
