    Yeah it's frustrating because the card itself is super simple: the first thing you cast with treasure each turn has cascade, but it takes like half a paragraph to spell it out within the black border rules.

    *Looks left* *Looks right* :edh: Cool card otherwise, though. Seems like an actively fun inclusion in some "Live the Dream Cube" clone.

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    :D That makes sense. Just wondering– is this from past testing with Mr. Treefolk or are you going off of theory? I'm trying to gauge what sort of "real" environment Sneak+Tree might work with since it's just kind of a cool meme combo with that nostalgia value which is increasingly difficult to...

    The funny thing is that the main reason why WOTC has stopped worrying so much about complexity in new sets is because Commander and Arena are increasingly popular ways many people are introduced to Magic. If those two things weren't so popular, complexity would likely be a little lower. To be...

    Oh sorry, it's getting hard to tell whether people are being sarcastic or not when they're talking about the power level of new cards. Ever since the Professor and PK started talking about "artificial rotation" of eternal formats it seems like people bring up power creep with every other new...

    The rebate still doesn't make it cost {2}{G} though, you still need to have three mana in order to cast it. The extra value is nice and it helps you cast some bigger stuff in Pauper (maybe in the cascade deck? @Kirblinx ?), but I this doesn't have the same play patterns that a {1}{G} with the...

    This is the Friendly Union Representative I was looking for out of the Riveteers. Thank you WOTC.

    That's good! Spark trooper is actually one of the first rares I ever opened. Just FYI I added an addendum to my original post, and I expanded on my initial thoughts greatly.

    I think this is supposed to be the Siege Rhino... although it's really closer to Mantis Rider. I'm not that big of a fan to be honest. I'm sure this card is fine, and it may even see Standard play, but I'm skeptical about its Cube prospects. The main reason why people are willing to take and...

    Nice Drake Haven enabler you got there... :) I think instant speed Chart a Course is probably good anywhere, but it's especially nice for reanimator//discard shenanigans.

    I think this card is just good. You obviously need some number of token producers but I don't believe you need actual dedicated support outside of "good cards that make tokens." This can turn a single Gilded Goose into a 2/2 or 3/1 factory. It makes Tireless Tracker into a Felidar Retreat. It...

    I never would have guessed that the owner of a treasure Capitalism Cube would be excited by a set with a major Capitalism treasure component ;)

    I wish this set had Strixhaven Vibes, that set was full of great cards.

    Mordor's Cube (The Ship of Theseus)

    Great post as always!! Glad you changed this back, I liked the idea of playing stuff like Burning Oil as additional removal but not at the expense of most of the Face Burn. It was a good experiment, though! Thanks again!

    This is supposed to be a train conductor and she's... mediocre. I want to like this card, but it's just not there. It's got the potential to function as a cool engine piece, but the fact that it has to die (not leave the battlefield) in order to get the cards back makes this extremely...
