    General The Cube Contest

    Within 10 cards of my final submission. Thanks to everyone for your roundabout assistance; lots of lurking feedback has enabled this psychotic endeavor! I am looking for input on my cube contest submission text (418 words): The Orzhov Syndicate has sojourned the vast majority of their...

    General Graveyard Cube Contest Entry

    I really enjoyed Marshal's Anthem in ALA-ZEN Standard Singleton (a competitive mtgo format circa 2010). It is a great midrange card that also doubles as an expensive Breath of Life . With a few more token producers in Naya colors, it could really shine. RE: Jace's Phantasm and tension, is...

    Going to submit either some version of this BW v RUG color imbalanced, dupe and trip heavy, morph headache: http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/62443 or some french vanilla, low-on-card-advantage ode to Shandalar (with 2x Moxen and a hefty amount of ABU-era spells). Leaning toward the first...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Some level of "oops, i win" should go a long way in pleasing the mtgo crowd. Add all of these big play cards. Crypto rite seems really cool. Think of the 540 version as eldrazi rainbow.

    540 choose 360... how many spawn cards are needed for them to beviable focus for a deck? I imagine 8-10. So probably want 20ish in a draft to have a chance of it coming together. Then consider scions. Then consider spawn and scion as ramp/tokens only (no type specific synergies). No idea on real...

    Who is your god now? I was originally planning ti advocate breaking it, but now... Just add a ton of scion makers; it'll remind wotc of their transgressions.

    Sanity check needed. 5 cloudposts, 3 glimmervoid, 2 vesuva, thespian stage... 5 evolving wilds How offensive would something like the above selection appear to WotC?

    2 things: 1) Singleton-breaking seems best if the framework behind it can be quickly summarized and the total number of unique cards is fairly high. Somethings like: multiples of early interactive cards (3x Mana Leak over Mana Leak/Daze/Miscalc, 3 Inquisition of Kozilek over...

    I am undertaking two primary tasks to convert a 360: (1) adding 'seasoning' cards that would not be missed if they neglected to show up (or have their partners show up) every draft and (2) doubling/tripling up on meat-and-potato cards. My primary concern is supporting synergy/strategy density...

    I'm also interested in their collation process and have asked the mtgo wotc contact. I think mtgo cubes use print runs within subpopulations (which opens up a TON of design space).

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I've tried this in a very low power format and found it wanting. The tempo lost for the caster is extreme.

    Penny Pincher might benefit from MTGOization... some of the combo elements could return to the population and not be guaranteed in each draft. MTGO players love trying to sssemble combos.

    If the power level allows it, add cards like the SOI golem and battlefield scrounger to support self mill and fight mill.
