So, what'st the appeal of Sneak Attack in synergy-based cubes? Sneak Attack What can I do with it that isn't cheating Emrakul into play?

There should be a reanimator deck but it's not as well-supported as I hoped. It simply doesn't come together as often as I would like. There are 2 cheap reanimation spells, two more expensive ones. But even if you do get a bunch of those spells, it seems the threat gets answered and you lose...

What do you think of these upgrades? Ashen Rider Woodfall Primus Not sure what could upgrade the Hellkite. And yeah I know these two cards are 8 mana instead of 7, which seriously limits their ability to be played. Do you think it will be too bad?

Thanks for the suggestion DBS. If our number is low, we'll do that. Still, if we have, say, six people, how should we draft? 3 packs of 15 cards or it's better to choose something like 4 packs of 12 cards each? The latter seems less distorted than the former. --- On an unrelated issue, I'm...

I've organized a Cube draft at the club this Sunday and I've been thinking how to make it go smoothly. I'm going to have players who are very good and players who haven't played in years or even decades. The good news is that if they take fixing highly and remember to take more 2-drops than...

I think the defining feature of your cube environment is how "agressive" it is, Waddel. Like, you run half a dozen strip mines and yet Crucible of Worlds is not overpowered because it's not fast enough.

I remember thinking 8th and 9th edition were very similar back in the day. They aren't (8th still has some old-school cards like Karma) but they should be very close.

Take care, no game is worth your health

It blanks all removal, allows creatures to become unblockeable and can make another creature tank a huge threat. That's a lot for one mana. Like Trainmaster says, it can fit in a mid-power cube but it's not low power at all.

I've been drafting your cube and it's a lot of fun. Despite being mostly a retail format all the cards feel fun. I don't know how different it is from the original, it seems more dense and better. Still, is it me or is there more play to many of the common/uncommon cards than in newer sets? It...

Stronghold, no question. Great lightning, composition and pose. I also like the colours and it has a great flavour text. 7h Edition: Awful, clumsy and amateurish. Onsalught: Like most of the block, ugly and poorly shaped. They didn't have an art director at the time and it shows. Funny flavour...

It might not be the most exciting video, but it's an important one.

Still, would you say you have been increasing the power level since you first toned it down? I'm curious.

Can Vesperlark bring back Multani and Fiend Artisan? Or do they have different power while they are in the graveyard as well?

Inscho, is your newer version of the cube just an excuse to play Vesperlak? Just wondering.:D

I've found Wildfire-like decks like to be WR. You can actually build many atypical control or midrange decks in that shell using cards like Sevinne's Reclamation, Land Tax, Cataclysm, Seismic Assault, etc. The main issue is that most WR creatures are not defensive.

Any recommendation for green 1-drops that are NOT mana dorks?

Venser is a great design. He is generically good, but he also costs four mana. If you play him as an expensive remand, that's not great. Getting the best out of him and his feeble body is interesting and fun.

I feel weird. I've been coming here everyday, trying to polish my cube. And now it seems it's almost complete with only one card up or down that I can change. Time to do just that and refloat my thread on the other one?

Moonveil Dragon I'm sorry but this card has a kickass art. Is it actually decent or just a Shivan Dragon?
