That was a really good read. I like getting input from players outside of my group. Some of those plays you guys were doing were firsts for me to see. No one has ever made that flickerwisp play over here, for example, I've never had someone o-ring a journey to nowhere, and using rally as removal...

For ease of reference, here are all of the eldrazi spawn cards that could be played in some cube: awakening zone growth spasm kozilek's predator nest invader pawn of ulamog corpsehatch dread drone spawning breath emrakul's hatcher And eldrazi scion blisterpod call the scions brood...

A few other things I wanted to mention. 1. When you scroll over the fields in the google sheet, I can actually see your full name kirblinx, which may or may not be something you are comfortable with. 2. Also, I realized that I had commented on the curve, but not on the power level of the...

Ok, thats weird, if I go to view image in new tab, I can see the deck, but whenever I go to past the url as an image, no luck. Anyways, here is the curve chart from cube tutor: As you can see. its slanted towards 1-2 drops, and the only spot the curve with more 3 drops than 2 drops is in...

Is there a way you can upload the file for m2g2? That game was incredible with so many twists and turns. I think the key plays of the game may have been the early death spark interactions: the decision to hit the reclamation sage instead of taking two and waiting EOT, and the acidic slime hit...

They also ran drift of phantasms to grab it in the standard deck. I wish they would bring back transmute, such a cool mechanic.

ah, you're right about that. Just looking for ways to make these non-interactive archetypes more desirable. :/

I don't think you would put it in a contemporary cube; however, it saw standard play in its era, and I wouldn't classify it as a reject rare. The original deck generated big mana with heart beat of spring, kodama's reach, and sakura-tribe elder, and its not unreasonable to promote something...

Was looking up sweet KAM-RAV era cards, and stumbled across maga, traitor to mortals Combo, ramp, devotion, pitches to force?

Guys...what kind of support does this dude need...and which art is better To make him awesome, he has to do more than just pitch to force, he needs to be a walking wrath of god.

I'll just run the barrage for now, and see how that goes. Stormbind is more for slower, non-blue focused, decks, running slightly higher land counts and bouncelands. Thats also the kind of deck that magmatic insight tends to fit into. I don't have your cycling lands, unfortunately, so...

I had considered it, and blasting station is actually fairly reasonable. My one complaint with it is that its a three drop. The main problem though is finding an artifact to cut :oops: The most narrow one of them is myr retriever, with juggernaut being the most replaceable. I'm not sure how I...

A few updates Of course, goblin bushwhacker #2 will shortly become reckless bushwhacker. I also cut the long underperforming goldnight commander with an elite scaleguard. I have no experience with scaleguard, but I wanted another counters lord, and he came recommended by several posters...

For a first draft I would say thats pretty reasonable, with most of your stumbles just coming from being new to the format. You're right its too three drop heavy, though there are some matchups where you an get away with that. The problem is when you find yourself in a situation where you are...

hmmm...I just noticed that mulldrifter decks are 0-2 in our duels :eek:

If you want to read a brainstorm vs. other cantrip discussion, there is this.

To be honest, that turn where I "gave" you 10 more turns was just me horribly misplaying and forgetting you had the shrine of loyal legions lol. I was just like...ugh..."I just wanted to see how the deck grinds...nothing to see here." When in reality I was cursing at myself for letting that one...

Yeah, its kind of the nature of the beast. I think there is kind of a disconnect with what I want to achieve when I write one of these articles--facilitate theory discussions--and what a lot of people want--a blue print tailored to their needs. I feel like the latter is not only hard to do (so...

That was quick. As a riptide specific addendum, I wanted to post this deck from venny One 1 Kird Ape 1 Stromkirk Noble 1 Zurgo Bellstriker 1 Birds of Paradise 1 Deathrite Shaman 1 Unearth 1 Path to Exile Two 1 Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit 1 Tarmogoyf 1 Strangleroot Geist 1 Qasali Pridemage 1...

The only thing that I would add, is that after seeing that hand in game two, and knowing he was going to tortured existence pitch the pelakka wurm for krosan tusker and than reanimate the wurm; he drew for his turn it was an exhume! It was like game one, pelakka felt bad for showing up late to...
