    Sets [ELD] Throne of Eldraine

    3 mana activation cost really kills this one for me, but I could see it finding a home in a slower environment.

    Sets [ELD] Throne of Eldraine

    The tokens should really be 1/2 Human Soldiers.

    Sets [ELD] Throne of Eldraine

    Why is he called Kenrith? I thought that was their surname. Is his name Kenrith Kenrith?

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I'd be tempted to try that at 1 or 2 mana but without the ETB trigger. And make it into a sorcery. It's a really neat design.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I don't mind Geist so much because a 2/2 is so fragile in combat. If you have easy ways to make it unblockable, it's a lot more obnoxious, but as is I think it's fine.

    General Cultic Cube video series

    That still sounds like several hours of repetitive work, unless I'm misunderstanding something.

    General Cultic Cube video series

    Do you do this for every card? That sounds pretty labour-intensive.

    General Fight Club

    Obviously the exact opposite of Kitchen Finks is.... Geralf's Messenger I put Finks in my gold section because it can be used, and is wanted, by Green and White decks about equally. I agree that it's not super important where it goes, though.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Yeah I could just say "all basics are snow if you want" and be done with it, but should there be a cost to being able to play with this card? In MH draft you have to spend picks on snow lands to be able to cast the undercosted stuff, but I would just be giving it away for free. I don't really...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I've had Fastbond for a while and I was actually thinking about going the other way. Fastbond is broken when it's good and quite bad when it's bad - my assumption is that Exploration is still bad when it's bad, but merely good when it's good. I'm still not entirely sure which deck wants this...

    Sets [C19] Commander 2019 Previews, Spoilers, Leaks, Leeks, and General Tomfoolery

    Ghired, Conclave Exile What do we think about this guy? Playable, interesting, boring, too much stat for too little mana or a cool build around where you gotta make the biggest and baddest token possible? I know I'm building him for EDH but he's been running round my head in cube context as...

    Arcum's Astrolabe Is this card too good if it just cost {1}?

    Aston's Cube

    GP Birmingham was this weekend. I played some side events (Pauper and Battlebond mostly - I hadn't played Battlebond before and I enjoyed it, although I would prefer to play it Bo3). But most importantly, Cube! We had seven players and a mix of archetypes - Mono-red, Jund Birthing Pod, GB...

    Thanks, I'm going to give Raff a try.

    What about Command the Dreadhorde as an alternative?

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Looking for UW card which is an artifact payoff or support card. Glassdust Hulk and Aerial Engineer are a little low power level. I'm thinking of adding either Thopter Foundry or Dovin, Grand Arbiter but open to other suggestions.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It's a bigger better Nekretaal but really, how interesting is Nekretaal? I think you can do better at 6 mana in black for a midrange/control finisher.

    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    Well I'm sold, I'll definitely be giving it a try. Between this and Spikeshot Elder, I can see maybe the seedlings of a red "power matters" or "grow power" theme being possible. Anything else that might work with these? Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin maybe? Spikeshot Goblin, Bloodshort Trainee...

    General Cube cards - Negative Surprises

    The Grand Calcutron I thought it might be funny, if not necessarily good, but it just made people miserable.
