Renown would have worked much better if it was inverted IMO. Get the reward on the creature being blocked. That both makes the creature a bit better and rewards actual interaction on the field. The opponent goes from "blocking this prevents effect and prevents it from growing. this is good" to...

great point! also an artifact to sac to Daretti, etc. etc. any artifact synergies. Sadly not seeing Emry or Goblin Engineer to push some cute value loops with it. I think the card is decent at least in a lower power environment.

I mean, I'm pretty sure it's the exact same timeline, just 1200 years in the future lol.

This is a tough one. Looking through a lot of magic cards I'm noticing that very many characters in these arts look... very uncomfortable!! All the typical shenanigans with armor, but also leather straps everywhere, layers, random holes in clothes, you name it... I couldn't pick just one I'm a...

I rank the Thirst For X's about equal if there's at least a decent artifact density, with Research just below them

I would assume the 10% variable could be tweaked. Have a smaller pool that's a 33% chance or something.

It's useful to see how the card fares if you need to cast it ASAP for whatever reason. Most spells deck I know are trying to use all their mana every turn and if you need a blocker or something... Cards like the Augur you pictured are my favorite cards for this deck because they do well in both...

Synergizing with flashback et al is huge for Curve. A couple flashbacks and the token still starts out as a 3/3 before even considering any spells left in the GY. Like any cards that solely rely on counting a GY (besides maybe Tarmogoyf), it can be a tad mediocre on curve unless you do nothing...

vorpal sword An easy win for only the low, low price of {7}{B}{B}{B}{B}{B}{R}

I personally lean towards mending; digging 4 deep and binning 4 all while gaining some life seems a bit better for GY themes than having another potential interaction piece that can cantrip.

the floor is the absolute minimum the card can provide versus what you expect to get from it. So if you fail to be able to create any tokens when you otherwise would have wanted to and miss out on searching, you're below the expected return on investment.

Yeah it forces you to use the abilities or lose out on the opportunity, so the extra land spent in tapping it is definitely relevant compared to a manland or similar non-temporary mana sink land

When you are buying into both constructs, that's actually "6" mana spent, because you have to tap Saga too and therefore lose out on the ability to use its mana ability. If you want both constructs, you cannot play it on turn 1 unless you have fast mana or else you lose out on at least on...

ooooooh ooooh wait! I change my answer

So apparently they fixed the bug where the game couldn't even be started? ;)

Hit: probably going to mirror the proliferation of treasures and other trinket tokens. A boon for lots of cube needs. Miss: STX flip cards. Blech. Set of the Year: Probably MH2. For my cube MID and VOW Card of the year: Probably Consider? Such a great baseline cantrip that feeds into pretty...

hmm... I don't see a way directly in CubeCobra, but you can tap the picture to bring up the details window, and then the "Scryfall" button at the bottom takes you to Scryfall where you can flip the card. Seems like they should implement that same "transform" button in the details window of CC.

Seeing Quandrix Apprentice in your best cards.... STX was this year......... It feels like 3 years ago
