    I had a very long and well thought out post (which you can believe if you can discount the idea that I am evaluating my own thoughts) that was lost to time and habitually hitting control-c for something else. But yes, I think it is normal to hit road blocks for designing. My point of the matter...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I like it, defiant strike also is not as bad as it looks, white slightly faster needle drop that helps prowess decks is good. (but I would consider it weaker than guided strike).

    General Fight Club

    I think I follow now, more of like if these were the last two cards in a pack and you're already in blue/black which would you choose? If that's the case, I think cloudfin raptor beats gluttonous slug every time. Like trainmasterGT said, the turn two clock is pretty slow compared to a clock that...

    General Fight Club

    That sounds less like a fight club and more like a, "if we coexist together, we could rule our respective CMCs" club. Pelt collector I consider a bit stronger, but human on the ooze is usually more relevant in cube, the regeneration is also relevant to survive sweepers. I prefer the ooze...

    General Let's talk about generating value

    I elaborated myself I based my card evaluations off of untamed kavu cuz grizzly bears doesn't cut it anymore, but obviously I am not perfect ;) (I'm second guessing pierce the sky, I think it should be higher value, but it is a niche card). Also this is not entirely granular, not everyone will...

    General Let's talk about generating value

    As in x-axis tempo, y-axis value?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Compared to Shunt I would actually say Bolt Bend is a little bit better (even when cast for 4) for one big reason that I didn't mention. It can swerve abilities as well, which since you run Flametongue Kavu, Nekrataal, Cast Out, and Waterfront Bouncer that could make for some very fun scenarios...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I've tested Bolt Bend which is pretty similar, but most of the time is more powerful to those two. I quite enjoyed it but my drafters did not. I consider it the best card we have presented for the effect (in red) because it supports the type of deck that would normally want it. Big red decks...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    The only card I could find that fits those specifications is Inexorable Blob Definitely an aggressive three drop I wouldn't mind playing if I'm behind, but also would be fun in other decks. It seems pretty pushed, but if you're not playing Fetchlands Delirium can be hard to get online

    The Video Game Thread

    It does seem interesting, unfortunately I don't have a PC to play on right now. I always thought League of Legends had cool lore and worlds but felt that it was lost by only having Champions on somewhat generic maps. Interesting design choice to make the cards have "I" rather than "this card's...

    Sets (UND) Unsanctioned full spoiler

    It's really nice to finally have the token to Water Gun Balloon Game, that always bothered me. Also is pretty powerful, not exactly sure how the dice tokens would interact with populate though (The populated creature is probably a 0/0?) This is the only card I could see putting in my cube...

    Sets [THB] Theros Beyond testing/includes thread

    Hero of the Nyxborn I was interested in, but I feel like I could just use and/or for roughly the same power level without cutting a Boros card. So those two are includes since I have a Feather, the Redeemed theme. I also really like as a "weaker" makeshift munitions, I just wish it said...

    General CBS

    Eventually I'll get around to posting my cube, but currently I only tested inquisition of kozilek before taking it out. Which sounds fine cuz my bombs are in the higher cmc, the most it could do is be a disfigure to 1-3 cmc creatures right? But when it factored in artifacts and enchantments and...

    Oh I was mostly reacting to the art, where it looks like a thousand yard stare in the mirror.

    The Black Cube

    You actually have enough legendary cards that I think Kethis is at least worth testing, if he was only creatures I would say "nah" but since he's everything legendary might as well. Yawgmoth's Vile Offering is probably worse than he is. So I get this reasoning because Falkenrath Gorger is...

    The Black Cube

    Gotcha, in that case I would recommend getting rid of many of your tribal cards. I've found 5 tribes where most don't have enough support just glancing through your list Definitely don't have enough dragons, so I would get rid of all of the cards that care about dragons (you can search for it...

    The Black Cube

    So quick question what size of the cube are you shooting for? (450? 360?) I was going to jump in on cuts but I didn’t want to offer a bunch of advice that actually is different based on the size of your cube.

    General Looking to build an Unstable cube

    I've tried to make an Un-set Cube like 3 different times, but if you go by the traditional model of only 1 copy of a card and only un-cards, you'll have a really weird and bad cube. Unstable was certainly a step in the right direction, but it's a bummer that two of the main mechanics...

    -1

    So chiming in cuz I love spirits but soulshift is definitely too slow normally so that looks really fun. So I wanted to chime in cuz of ramp, I've had similar fears over "turbo-ramp" or just fast ramp in general. From what I've seen most of that is mitigated by how fast removal is in your cube...
