I added current custom text to the first post. Renowned Weaver, Springjack Shepard, Spellstutter sprite and Academy Raider are currently in the experimental phase, but Raider at least is probably a shoe in.

No one is willing to touch Duskmantle Seer with a ten foot pole, not sure if that is player error or he just sucks. Whitewater Naiads, though, definitely suck. Could be playable at 4? Maybe Thasa needs another run? Thoughtrender Lamia might get a nod over Doomwake Giant.

Cards that care about +1/+1 counters: Ion Storm, Cytoplast Root-Kin, Volt Charge, Thrummingbird, Tezzeret's Gambit, Rage Forger (custom), Oona's Blackguard, the phantoms (sort of), Solidarity of Heroes, Give // Take, Sage of Hours, Fathom Mage and as of next week, Marchesa, the Black Rose. My...

Confirming that Crater Hellion is indeed awesome. I highly recommend it.

Lol, also 7/10. Those cards rock.

Hi Alfonzo! When we cubed last we found Attrition to be pretty unfun in my removal light environment, so it needs a replacement. How is Grave Pact for you? It seems to both be more restrictive (intense cost, requires an outlet), more consistent (can kill black creatures) and has more...

After getting in 2 full and a partial draft this week with a handful of new players, I got some great feedback on my cube. I'll be looking carefully at exact numbers, but attrition is definitely being cut. It was just too easy to get an engine going, particularly with vampiric tutor, which also...

Green is an amazing support color for enchantments, with the enchantress card advantage engine being able to bury people. Rancor is rancor, my reworked oakborn dryads are strong and ancestral mask is available if the theme needs a kick. Black gets Underworld Coinsmith, Grim Guardian and...

Its weird, Venser is the card that bothers me more, mostly because Annex fucks over bouncelands mercilessly, but its specifically as a part of its design of the card, while Venser seems to do it completely incidentally. I guess its a trainwreck waiting to happen.

That reeks of good design.

Stone Rain Pillage Avalanche Riders Annex Parallax Wave Venser Tamiyo Cryptic Sinkhole Slime Mage Wasteland Port Modified Tec Edge Dust Bowl That's what I run. Maybe I should cut out one of the blue ones, as these cards also shit on wild growth and friends. If someone gets a wild growthed...

Anyway, my view is that bouncelands aren't fixing. You shouldn't play them as fixing. You shouldn't include them in your cube in order to meet your fixing quota. I mean, they do fix and that's a nice feature, but if you play them to fix over a land that actually fixes that's a mistake and you...

I'm probably the only one who likes it because green has a million good cards at this casting cost, but Ant Queen is a well-sized creature that you can dump a ton of mana into lategate that synergizes with anything that uses bodies. Swarmyard tech.

I am also a spell pierce convert. In fact, I liked it so much I took a copy of remove soul and sharpied it into a creature spell targeting version of spell pierce.

There was a time in magic history when I played Hammerheim instead of a mountain because wtf are they going to do Blood moon? I don't think it ever actually came up, but against goblins and their mountainwalk it wouldn't have hurt. Also, flagstones. If I'm going to randomly support a creature...
