    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    More thoughts and changes. First, I think one of these should go so I can take one card out of white. Kitchen Finks Renegade Rallier Knight of the Reliquary Terror of the Peaks -> Skarrgan Hellkite Terror of the Peaks is fun, but it reliably nukes the opponent's board while dealing...

    General Tinkerer's Cube (MTGA)

    The more I play the cube, the worse I think it is. I just lost to Ashiok, Dream Render eating 20 cards of my library. I couldn't kill it and the board was so clogged I didn't deal a single point of damage to him. The previous game I just mind controlled a Multani, Yavimaya Avatar and won because...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I like the idea, I think a natural design might be something like this: 2BB Morbid - CARDNAME enters play with one additional loyalty counter if a creature died this turn +1 Target player discards a card -3 Return target card from a graveyard to play under your control (3) Starting Loyalty

    One of the reasons I ask is that I cut "lands" a a white/green archetype long ago. Lands is in GR and while it may move into white for wraths and Cataclysm, it's not really common. I do have blink and sacrifice as more adjacent themes. However, Knight of the Reliquary is a mana fixer and a big...

    Renegade Rallier vs Knight of the Reliquary A classic. What I want to hear is: Why do you prefer one over the other?

    General Tinkerer's Cube (MTGA)

    I played it though sadly not much because I don't have the coins to do it. I haven't been to impressed, it feels a bit rough. I like that it makes a serious attempt towards synergy-building. However, I have found the actual design of the archetypes to leave much to be desired. You have many...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I really believe the Soratamis are extremely weak. They have a massive drawback and weak effects.If I'm drafting control, I don't want my win condition to be a 1/4 flier that requires me to armaggedon myself to mill the opponent. Compare it to Millstone. Do you run a low enough power level to...

    I would take Wavwes of Aggression. It's the more interesting card and 5 mana for an "overrun" effect is fine. Moraug isn't going to get played in aggro because he requires 7 lands to be useful. Even then, he's weak on its own terms. It's a non-trampling 6/6 that only shines with other creatures...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I've been thinking more about white four drops with a look towards midrange and control. Since I'm making proxies, I'm thinking of printing all the candidates and testing them out: Mangara, The Diplomat Trove Warden Ojutai Exemplars Mangara is kind of bullshit. However, I've gone through my...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Yasova Dragonclaw Is this card actually good? Six mana before it threatens is expensive and that 2 toughness doesn't seem like much. Thoughts?

    No, but Onderzeboot suggested Palace Jailer. Which I like despite its high power level, the issue is introducing Monarch into the cube. Not sure I like that.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    More changes and cuts. Most of these cards aren't really played or truly necessary: Metallic Mimic Retrofitter Foundry Lightning Phoenix Kird Ape Fire Imp Metallic Mimic is just more human fodder. The deck needs no additional help. There are several cool combos with Kitchen Finks and you...

    I have but I'm looking for a creature. I want something that beefy that helps control. I like cards like Mangara the Diplomat, but it's a complete fuck you to aggro. Ojutai Exemplars is cool but it seems hard to remove, baneslayer-ish and I would rather have white control play differently. Super...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I'm really glad to hear that Dom. I love seeing your decks, they are very inspiring. So yeah, perhaps things are better than I thought! I actually went and built the non-red decks you build and they are a ton of fun. I'll see how I can improve things a bit while keeping those decks in the cube.

    Force of Will vs Pact of Negation Should I replace FoW with Pact of Negation in my cube? (I don't want Force of Negation)

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Thanks a lot Nanonox, seeing those decks help. I'm afraid I'm not the best drafter so I tend to believe I need more "synergy" than I actually do. For example, I think I need more discard outlets than it's really necessary. Still, I would see if I can tighten things up. I like how Body Double...

    I just took her out because she just stalled the game by flooding the board with 1/1 tokens that couldn't attack. In general, I'm cutting down the amount of tokens in my cube dramatically so I'm not even sure why I look into Keeper of the Accord. One of the issues I'm trying to fix with my cube...

    I can see that. Sorry, I'm attracted to durdling too much. I'm looking for something midrange and control heavies might like. Aggressive decks just take Ranger of Eos or any other 4-mana topper so they don't care what it is.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Turns out dumping 5 mana spells when your opponent has 2 lands is kind of busted :(

    So far I like this one the most! Keeper of the Accord Thoughts?
