    Phyrexian Reclamation vs Oversold Cemetery I would love to hear your thoughts on this one. I have one too many "graveyard value" cards with both of those and Volrath's Stronghold on top of reanimation spells. I'm thinking of cutting one but I haven't decided which one yet.

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    I'm not very happy with Talrand, Sky Summoner. Do you guys have any alternatives for a spells-matter deck? I know of some options but I'm digging a bit.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    We are in lockdown and can't get out of my house for several days so it's a good time to work on the cube. Let's be honest, I love working on the cube. It's fun, more fun than actually playing. When I "finish" this one I want to build one without proxies in real life, using only cheap, low-power...

    Soltari Guerrillas This looks neat! Any thoughts?

    General Show me your discard and graveyard synergies

    Riptide Lab is all about lackluster graveyard themes, or so says, Waddell. Yet we don't have a lot of information on the topic beyond squadronning Gravecrawlers threads made several years ago. As I'm reworking my cube, I would love to see what you guys are up to. Show me neat things you do and...

    Phyrexian Ghoul vs Stronghold Assassin Two pretty different cards. What do you think? Why do you like each of these cards or not? On a similar record. Is the additional toughness so important on the Ghoul? Phyrexian Ghoul vs Bloodthrone Vampire ---- Let me add another one Stitcher's...

    Super Awesome Event!!

    I took the clickbait. Is this what I've been doing to people? My god

    Yeah, it's what I feared. Oh well. Thanks for the suggestion too, Onderzeeboot, but I was interested in the Rat because it was a 2-cost creature! :)

    Pack Rat Is this actually useful as discard support or is it just about pumping out copies?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I've worked a bit more on my red creatures. I'm very happy with my 3-drops but the others could see changes. I decided to add Seasoned Pyromancer. Seasoned Pyromancer Seems like it's in a good spot to support several decks in the cube. His addition pushes me to 31 creatures, but two of them...

    General Small archetype packages

    I like Golos and I like Crystalline Crawler, but I don't like the other cards very much. I think playing an extra land every turn is not very useful at 2G and Chromatic Lantern is a bit too dull for me. Chamber Sentry is very clunky and very mana-intensive too. But I do think something similar...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I think the disruption is the most important part of that deck. The problem with green, creature-based decks is that their spells do not interact with the opponent´s plan. But this list has quite a few spells that do, even the Voracious Hydra matters. I've gone back and forth on the third...

    I've been thinking about weird cards. I wonder if someone has found a place for this in cube: Food Chain My gut tells me it's less useful than Phyrexian Altar but the design is very cool.

    Crawlspace is a nice design, but two creatures is too much, as is three mana. I tried Silent Arbiter and it never worked. It's expensive and if they can remove it you get punished hard. I never found many decks that actually wanted the card.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I just drafted this very neat deck on CubeTutor and I wanted to share it here: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1243378[/url]"] Ones 1 Elves of Deep Shadow 1 Llanowar Elves 1 Retrofitter Foundry Twos 1 Gather the Townsfolk 1 Imposing Sovereign 1 Kor Skyfisher 1 Lotus Cobra 1 Scavenging Ooze 1...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    By the way, I want to note: All removal in the cube is a placeholder. Its power level is way higher than it should be and it probably makes all those nifty decks and large creatures unplayable in practice. I'll tone it down once everything else is sorted.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Fire Imp works, but it's a very uninspiring design, the real card doesn't match its functionality and it's pretty much a small Flametongue Kavu. In other words, It's a purely aesthethic issue hahaha The problem I have had with broad archetypes is that they weren't truly broad. As in, they...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    It's L5R tournament season and I have a very strong deck so I'm not much into Magic lately. Still, working on the cube is fun so I decided to steal some ideas from Inscho again. I first looked at aristocrats support and it doesn't seem like there's a large difference between what he and other...
