That's my point. Sulfuric Vortex kills you. Mogis only kills the other guy. So many evaluations of Mogis seemed to exclude the fact that similar cards like Vortex and Ankh of Mishra do damage to you as if you will only ever be playing against decks that you could start the game at 2 life and...

Nylea, God of the Hunt is an absolute pleasure of a card to play with and against and is very quickly joining my list of "cards that I will never cut".

I've had the unfortunate experience of going into a gamestore to play magic and get paired against someone who was not born when I started playing Magic. And this was a couple of years ago.

Bumping an old thread, I ran into another old chestnut of anti-wisdom today that I've seen in the past that irks me: Only evaluating cards in terms of extreme archetypes and idealized gamestates. This is the school of thought that says that Jackal Pup is an awesome card, because you need 2...

My friends "retail limited on 'roids" cube runs death grasp and its a house there, but I don't see it working in most environments. Merieke is pretty efficient but extremely binary. Old Man of the Sea can be pretty strong, but then again he can block some creatures which is not irrelevant...

Preference based decisions are certainly valid to make and everyone makes them. I don't begrudge anyone for any of the arbitrary lines they draw. However, once they go past that and make claims that their arbitrary lines are good design principals and evangelize them, all bets are off.

I see what side of the "Hidden, but trackable information" debate you fall on. The right one.

I play about once a month generally, with a end of the year binge where I play a lot all at once. I also occasionally squeeze in extra sessions erratically, sometimes as often as twice a week, sometimes months go by without one.

Another reason why I hate Brimaz

I love seeing this kind of info because I made some similar changes. I hoped to play today, but alas, we played my friends cube instead. Soon enough, I hope I'll have some feedback for you!

There just aren't too many wrath counters and some of them don't even work against all wraths! I mean, you have caller of the claw, rootborn defenses, boros charm, second sunrise and ready // willing. Most of these cost three, which put them in the "cancel" category of badness. 3 of them do...

I love these effects and run 2 of them (Shelter and Emerge Unscathed). Which ones you end up picking depends on what you want to encourage, but mostly they play exactly the same: white falter/situational counterspell/damage prevention. They are useless against non-damage sweepers, though, so...

Blood Artist is so good, I run Falkanrath Noble as well and no one even cares he costs 4.

I guess it depends what you consider the opportunity cost of a slot in the utility pile is. I just throw everything in there, but if you want it to be concise I wouldn't consider it a top choice. Finks are plenty good in your cube already.

That is one spicy suggestion. I didn't like Labyrinth Champions crap casting cost, but did want the effect, which this card gives you in a nice package. I completely forgot this card existed!

I've got Cytoplast Root-Kin and Llanowar Reborn in, but otherwise all of the graft creatures are pretty awful. I'll see what me and the sharpie can come up with.

I think humans is one of those things you support in a completely serendipitous fashion. If you want more support, you can go to deranged outcast, but I think running the big three and then letting it sort itself out is the best approach to humans. They are just too diverse to really do...

Does Evangel of Heliod count as good, because is certainly counts as an army!

This is my buy list for the set, plus a couple cards for sharpie purposes. Note that many of these cards will not be in the cube, but I want them around because they could see play if my mood changes. Acolyte’s Reward Eidolon of Countless Battles Hero of Iroas Spirit of the Labyrinth Meletis...
