Magic is a pretty simple game so it's important to have some confusing cards to ensure the rules lawyers also gets to look forward to cube night.

Sounds like something a ninja would say.

yes the designers all have 2 toughness

The cube has changed significantly in the 10 months since I made that statement. The artifact density is higher, and half of the payoffs I talk about in that post are gone, including Ravager being swapped out for Trawler as of post#6. Auriok Salvagers does roughly two things exclusively...

The biggest Dominaria nerd I know quit the game over DMU.

Foolish to think I wouldn't want overlap between anything I can get my hands of, even stax and storm if such a thing could exist. Besides, my only actual +1/+1 counter incentive is The Ozolith, which doesn't really mind. (And Together Forever, which also works in that overlap, but I'm not sure...

I've broken singleton on Hard Evidence, Brainstorm, Consider, Frantic Search, Preordain, Street Wraith, Faithless Looting, Faithless Salvaging, Manamorphose, Mishra's Bauble and Chromatic Star, along with a decent number of other card draw effects, so I assume she has legs. That said, I've...

Well, you see... that's what the disclaimer at the start was for. I need to bully my discord friends into playtesting with me, but our timezones don't overlap all that well and they're not very reliable wrt making commitments. That said I'd probably wager that Channeler would generally be the...

I just cut Skyclave Shade and I was lamenting how +1/+1 counter/sacrifice fodder is a pretty neat niche. Devkarin Test-Subject {B} Creature - Plant Elf Graft 1 {1}{B}: Return ~ from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped. Activate this ability only if a creature entered the battlefield this...

Yeah I'm probably the biggest Replenish stan. Sylvia Brightspear I don't know what my obsession is with, but she's probably single-handedly warped more of my cube inclusions than any other individual card. Just have to hope it works out in actual practice. I'm pretty confident the level 0...

I can give you interesting, I can't attest to their actual quality until my cubeamajigs ks arrives and I'll get around to ordering and playing my cube to a great extent than fooling around with cubecobra test drafts. I wish I could mention my CMC matters attempt, but it's not yet at a point...

I think I'm at a point where through some twisted integer-overflow logic 30A might actually be my favorite magic product in a long time.

I think it introduces an element of fun during the draft portion, it provides a sense of tension to your more greedy picks that packs a lot more uncertainty than "assuming I get on average 6 prismatic vistas my mana-base can afford to...", and making some super-sketchy fetch+shock pairings is a...

My hypothetical objections against it would be twofold: - General monotony of having your mana fixing feel identical, you don't get to feel the same degree of agency over how your mana base ends up, and therefore probably feels less rewarding to pick up mana fixing - It becomes very hard to...

I was wondering why nobody had posted about the dragon engine already.

Triarch Preatorian's red brother just dropped and he's just as sexy if not even more so. And instead of 40k baggage he brings misleading reminder text for your cubers instead, because nobody is perfect.

can't wait to play sealed with these

I want to appreciate the old border cards in the bro archives, wurmspiralmaschine's new art is extremely sexy. but, and it's amazing how much this has bothered me ever since MH2, the set symbol is really jarring, and I don't understand. They did it correctly the first time around in Time Spiral...

I think Trigger Happy and Opening Ceremony will be my only considerations for the set. Thankfully some of the less offensive artwork in the set, but I might consider a facelift for Trigger Happy regardless.
