    Lots of interesting suggestions! I get that the XX Artifacts don't really need help to be decent/good but I'm always looking for little ways to make my players feel clever, when they eek out a bit of extra mileage from their deckbuilding creations. Also, my environment is quite low curving, does...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    Thanks for the feedback! Many good points and things I didn't really consider. Emry, Lurker of the Loch is also one of my favorite payoffs, especially because it is not a three drop! Tinker is an interesting idea though I'm not quite sure what my preferred targets would be. It's obviously good...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    BLUE There are no big sweeping changes for blue. Generally the color is in a good place and I just want to include some of the shiny new toys we got recently. Blues strengths are mainly the strong enablers for discard decks, good enablers and payoffs for selfmill, support for slower artifact...

    Sharzad v4 - The Passion of Tarkir

    Cool cube! I've noticed that Angel of Exquisite Timing is lacking P/T and it felt to me that there are a lot of Blink enablers but not actually that many payoffs, but I might be wrong.

    I haven't played with Marketback Walker yet but I have a tangential question that's been on my mind since adding the card! What are your favorite ways to make these better in your cube? Walking Ballista Marketback Walker Hangarback Walker Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate Off the top of my head a...

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    Nice write-up! We have a lot of overlap, because both our cubes are heavy in the graveyard department, but mine lacks most of the generically efficient and combo/draw 7 stuff. I don't have too much to contribute, except maybe one thing that's become more apparent to me recently. The...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    In my experience Maul of the Skyclave is too much of a removal check (at least in my environment). It turns anything into a 3-4 turn clock and is very hard to interact with in combat because they will never have good blocks for a 5/4 flying first strike creature. History of Benalia and Felidar...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    Thanks for feedback and suggestions! Now that the rough overhaul is done and I had a bit more time to think about white (also thanks to the fight club discussions), it might be time for a little addendum. WHITE ADDENDUM Swaps: Arcbound Mouser -> Novice Inspector Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd ->...

    I just took stacked deck pictures sorted by Nana value and it recognized ~90-95% of the cards. Something like this:

    Not sure I follow, how's the Hallowblade interacting with equipment? Just that it's a strong beater that's difficult to interact? I'm not opposed to bring him back, I used to have him and Guardian of New Benalia in the cube. You're probably right, that the second Inspector is one of the better...

    General [SPM] Marvel's Spider-Man

    It's a strange feeling I've been having. My theory is that they are putting more work/money/effort/power into the Universes Beyond sets as they need to make sure those sell well and what better thing to get people excited about cardboard than printing strong, exciting cards. All of the two mana...

    A relatively new app made specifically for Cube is SnapDrafter! You take a picture and it converts it into a list that you can import into CubeCobra. Unfortunately you cannot export a text file, I think. I still had to tediously enter every card name :confused:. You can export the deck as a...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    Alright, the orders at Cardmarket and MPC are placed, so it's time for some theorycrafting! Since I will probably make around 70 changes to my cube, I'll split up the posts to somewhat manageable size, probably by color. Also, I want to get my thought-train rolling (and hope for your feedback!)...

    I am looking to bolster my white aggressive artifact section with 1-2 one and two drops respectively! What would be your 1 or 2 favorites for each bracket? Artifact one drops (Esper Sentinel, Thraben Inspector and Warden of the Inner Sky are already in): Arcbound Mouser Hotshot Mechanic...

    General [SPM] Marvel's Spider-Man

    I understand the dislike/hatred for this set and other sets like it, I've been there. For my own mental well being I've just decided to make the best of it and distance myself from the company that makes the cards. I still love the game and I even like some of the new card designs a lot but if I...

    General [EOE/EOC] Testing/Includes FROM SPACE

    So, first up, this set has me more excited than any other set in a long time! Could be that it has to do with artifacts, landfall and graveyard (to a lesser extent) all being present here, that are also core tenets of my cube but I also really enjoy the science fiction world building they did...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    Vivi Ornitier looks fantastic from what I've seen so far! A fun and unique card that you can built around, it just doesn't interact with my themes, except maybe for helping with the big mana creatures like Walking Ballista. So I'm not sure if I should include it. As for the shark, it looks very...

    Schafkurai's Graveyard Synergy Cube

    It's that time of year again, time to post a bi-annual draft report! Last Friday was a special occasion, since a friend from abroad was in the city and we managed to get 4,5 people together for a relaxed, after-putting-the-kids-to-bed cube draft. Four out of five people (myself included) made it...

    Those are some very nice cards! Warden and Bristlebud are in my cube and stridehangar and Monument will come in with my next update. As everyone has said already, Warden is a cool and strong card. It's just a decent beater in a normal aggressive deck but cards like Thraben Inspector Voldaren...

    Sets [EOE] Edge of Eternities

    What a sweet little robot! This is great if you support artifacts in any way in your cube. A little bit like Tough Cookies little brother. It applies some pressure early, can block pesky fliers early and late but mostly trades off, which I like. In my cube I'm always looking for creatures with...
