    Well, experience? Those little rascals are lovely and nice. But preschools/crèches have more germs/viruses than I would dare to count. Funny thing is that the children are often much better at handling those buggers than the grown ups. Speedy recovery!

    Do not agree with better than bloodsoaked. Bloodsooked costs one more mana but not a card. The attack condition is sometimes restricting but not often

    Not broken. As I stated the cost of discarding a card is painful at the beginning and a 2/1 is not worth it in the endgame. Consistently looping it requires life of the loam, for which you sacrifice your draw. The return which cost 3 mana is stronger in the endgame and nobody bats an eye.

    Well, onder explained it quite good. How good is a 2/1 when you have to discard your land for it? A 2/1 is good at the early phase of the game, but often not good enough at the end. Discarding a land at the early phase of the game is painful, so it has that going against it. It is a real cost in...

    Hesitation and standstill require (just like combo) a dedicated deck which is really hard in cube, e.g., a density of manlands and counterspells, (without going on rails and so on). This is a challenge to pull it off! Form of the dragon and sandstorm do not require replenish (unless you want to...

    I love restrictions. Almost all decks use creatures and black destroy is quite cheap. Having an cheap answer to everything is just not great from a gameplay perspective. It used to be non-artifact and non-black (thou shall not kill your own, Exile) but non-multicoloured (and non-black) is...

    The problem with screwing is sometimes the wrong colours, for which cycling lands help, but what if you get the screw that you do not draw lands? You could add landcycling (1) to many cards, but are there other ways?

    Well, you could add cycling lands… The problem I have with the homeland is that it gives colourless. If you play two colours and you only have one in play you are still screwed.

    Why not keep damage on the stack? Please explain to me the difference between shock and an archer against a creature. Now one goes on the stack, the other not on combat…

    Ah, stacks and cards like no mercy Pestilence Worship Form of the dragon Smokestack Pariah Living lands Humility and many more. Any card that changes the way the game has to be played without being a big threat which ends the game if the other cannot answer it makes me happy.

    True, either: 1) basic box and hand out 2) put them in the cube, which takes space/picks and do not mind that one takes them all You cannot have them both. You can solve your conundrum by allowing players to pick 3 lands from your land box, where there are a lot of vistas and some lands which...

    Or put the vistas in the basic land box and hand out 3 to each player…

    The problem with island+mountain is that if one does not play blue in the end that a pick is wasted. Still, much better than duals in draft but I think the voucher solves the this land is not always used problem.

    Isn’t it better to have vouchers like: Hand in 1 pick a land from this pile Hand in 2 pick a land from that pile Hand in 3 for a fetch of choice Hand in 4 for cradle? It prevents the wrong color picking problem and keeps the idea that one can choose between many “bad” fixing lands or a few good...
