    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    Why'd they wait until the 11th hour to start posting fun cards? This is so dumb, and I love it. This is the first top down individual card I think is particularly clever, and it's not bad either. I wouldn't run it in a cube smaller than mine, but I've got a lot of space and plenty of drafters...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    Oh. I'm definitely running Standard Procedure and not looking back. That's the dumb stuff I was hoping for from this set that I hadn't been seeing, the true "Booster Tutor" of our modern age, and similarly overly wordy and complicated for new players. I can imagine potential feelbad scenarios...

    General Spaaaaace: To Unfinity and Beyond!

    So I love this effect! Yay for more white reanimation, and reanimation that feels white! TO BE FAIR, in most cubes, reanimating based on whether a creature is Legendary or not is equally arbitrary as whether or not a character in the art is wearing a hat. This effect seems worthwhile so long as...

    Consider me Haughty Djinn-curious. I'll pick up a copy and try him out, thank you for this! I love tempo cards, and you've sold me that this fits the role I had always wished Wake Thrasher would and never could. The battlefields of Riptide Lab have trained you well, my friend. It's honestly...

    Thanks as always for maintaining these. Would kill to be able to break out cubes tagged with rarity restrictions or that are EDH-focused for the analysis, but I can 1) technically do that myself if I just want to play around in CubeCobra, and 2) I know how much work that would be! Especially on...

    Sorry for the double-post, but three new Swamps!! Two of these are actually quite good, I'm excited to pick them up.

    It's wild, I was so disappointed by the first dozen spoils thinking we wouldn't get the sweet black artifact support I had imagined in my head, and now, yeah -- if spoilers ended here, I'd be plenty satisfied. This is everything, absolutely everything, I want in a Magic card. 1. A flying...

    Extinction Event is fairly playable and this is a bit more powerful and a bit easier to control, even if it's also easier for your opponent to interact with. I think it seems fun, it'd be great to blow someone out with them only for them to blow me out in game 2 or something. I like this card...

    Looks like we're getting 1 new art of each relevant basic land for the Tyranid deck: I don't think any of them are particularly special but I'm a big fan of getting unique styles for basics that let players deeply customize their land bases to match a deck's theme. For my cube, I keep my...

    I didn't think much about this until I realized it started as a 1/1. Stonecoil Serpent that draws you a card if you play it as a 6-drop? And it has the potential to come back late game after you traded it off as a 2/2 or 3/3 to fit your curve? I've stepped away from having green be as aggressive...

    Sorry for the double post but I just realized they made a black border (well, kinda) Garbage Elemental-D, a card I cubed with for a few good years before the wealth of red 5 drops pushed my dear friend out. Why anyone would make the swap is beyond me, but maybe if you don't like actual...

    I like it. I'm currently running Honored Hydra, a card that fits a similar role but is weak enough in the context of my cube that it hasn't been maindecked once. In all fairness, in many games, it's just a Colossal Dreadmaw, but I'm always eager for more cards that like to sit around in a...

    Got my first draft in since Dominaria's release, and my final cube draft with my current playgroup, as I'm moving halfway across the world next month. ...unfortunately, none of the cards made it in time, as they'll be arriving by post today. My Jund tokens deck would've been sick with a Raven...

    I worry this is a trap for more less hardcore/committed playgroups like mine. I adore the card, and will be picking up some for EDH, but I'm anxious to put it in my cube and then have it wallow in decks that don't know what to do with it.

    Exciting set! I didn't come into this expecting another busted expansion like MID or NEO, both of which still have over 20 cards a pop in my 720 list, but 10 additions is nothing to sneeze at. Great flavor, my personal pick for the most beautiful basic lands on average to date (that are all...

    General Favorite Flavortext?

    Most of my favorites have already been mentioned but this was an early one in my Magic career that stuck with me: I generally like the feel of the 90s ones best. I think they got a bit cringey in the early 00s and never really recovered that old fantasy charm, and never took themselves with...

    I've got to say, this set's in the running for the best basic land quality card-for-card. There's not a loser in the bunch, and all of these below are close to the premiere basics printed imo. The last few years of Magic has given us endless riches when it comes to basic lands, especially in...

    Full spoiler is up This name trolls real hard. Probably my favorite 3 MV black card draw? I ran Dark Bargain for a while and it was a fine 23rd card, even with my cube's power level. This is just as good in most decks, and sometimes better, for one mana less! Very interesting.
