    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Previews

    The wording seems like they made a complicated card and then they asked "how can we make it more complicated?"

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    Portable Hole could have been an enchantment and the green card could have been a white Kithkin. Maybe there are reasons I can't understand since I never played D&D, but they shouldn't kill all of Magic's flavour for this set

    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Previews

    They chose Lyon as the artist for the Lion :swagg: Nice cards though! I'm very happy for the old-bordered fetch lands, now we can have the entire set of 10 as old-bordered

    General Pack Size

    Thank you all! I didn't think about 3x16 but that's surely a consideration! I'll give a try to both 3x16 and 4x12 and see what happens. I'm really happy for the +24 cards in my cube, I had a lot of interesting cards that I had to cut and I love to put back in!

    General Pack Size

    Hi everyone! Right now I have a 360 cube that I draft with 3 boosters of 15, but I’m thinking about upping the count to 384 and doing 4 boosters of 12. Do you think one of those has more pros/cons than the other? Or do you think the small size change of both the cube and the pool doesn’t matter...

    Card/Deck Creature lands

    I like them, they are my 4th cycle of duals after og, fetch and shock and they never disappoint me. I consider them more as a guildgate with upside than a multicolored card, so I take them mostly for fixing but if it happens they can activate and be great. Colonnade and Tar Pit are really...

    General Poll: Shroud & Hexproof

    Shroud is way more balanced than hexproof, but they say it's harder to understand. I hope we will see some more shroud creatures in supplementary products: things like Blastoderm or Nimble Mongoose are fun. Hexproof and things like True-Name Nemesis are the death of interaction, I'm really glad...

    General Timespiral Remastered Timeshifts

    OG art Venser is the best, but I really dislike the new Legendary frame, so I will keep the FTV one unless I can find a Future Sight foil Venser (which is like 20€ on mkm) For the time shifted cards, I already have 35 of them in my cube (so I need to do 35 upgrades) and there are like 15 cards...

    Alvoi's Cube

    Hello everyone! Little update! For my main cube, I asked my friends to bring their favourite Magic cards and last time we drafted I added them to my cube. It was really fun! We were 4 people to draft so we did the burn-one thing, and we drafted four decent decks. There were a bit of problems...

    General Secret Lair Spoilers

    For the titans, I think I still prefer the DOTP foil versions! But I really love the one with the faeries, I was already considering adding Spellstutter and some Faeries support to my cube, and this will be the thing that will push me into that direction. I have to think about how many Faeries I...

    Article Lessons from Kaldheim

    Plus, you can also “cycle” it turn 2 to find a land, so having a rune makes possible to keep riskier hands. Even though it isn’t optimal (like cycling Bladebrand in RNA), at least it’s something that helps you curve out. I did it 2-3 times in draft already, it feels bad but sometimes it’s the...

    General Favorite Planeswalker Cards?

    Vivien, Champion of the Wilds I really like her in midrange Maverick-style green decks, she makes attacking into open mana really stressful for the opponents, and if unchecked she becomes a card advantage engine, but without being extremely broken and game-winning like other walkers like JTMS...

    General Self-Sufficient Tribal Payoffs

    I really like Spellstutter with incidental Faeries synergies, like Bitterblossom, Borrower, Vendilion, Pestermite, Glen Elendra and Sower. I'm thinking about adding Scion of Oona too, since it's decent on its own and can be played by someone that wants a card to glue together the Faerie...

    Alvoi's Cube

    Thank you both for the warm welcome! You're right, I shall ask them. Something that is a bit of a liability because they don't play as much Magic as I do, so they only know a small subset of cards, and are used to play with them and if I add some new cards to the cube, they usually wait until...

    Alvoi's Cube

    Hello everyone! I'm new here so I hope I'm not doing something wrong. I didn't see a presentation subforum so I will do it here shortly: I'm 20 years old and from Italy, and I love this game! I played a lot of formats and settled on Legacy, but then when War of the Spark and Modern Horizons came...
