Man, I can't justify cutting Alesha, Who Smiles at Death but this is a neat card for the Legendary-matters theme I was hoping to support a little more with this set, and I don't want to double up on Mardu cards. Neat creature all the same though! Love the art for Cut Down

Couldn't agree more, @inscho, Phoenix Chick and Electrostatic Infantry both are fairly competitive and exciting even in the strongest cubes, supporting multiple existing archetypes in red each. Cult Conscript and Cut Down are both easy inclusions, but they're both replacement-level rather than...

I think it's unnecessary as a counter, but it's not offensive to me. Beloved character, great art, supports legendary-matters.....but also it's three colors. I don't actually have a Bant card I love for cube, so maybe this is a good one? It's powerful, but very mana intensive and overly...

Our first "Epilogue" set, interesting. I like the idea of a set taking place across multiple planes (March of the Machine), curious to see how they'll make that cohesive. The Origins/Urza's block approach wasn't terrible, but I think would be too limiting here. Eldraine is pretty exciting...

The Raven Man I've desperately wanted to make Tinybones, Trinket Thief work but I don't have the discard density to justify it, and it doesn't survive on its own without synergy as a playable card. The Raven Man may have a lower upside but it's the complete package, and a neat collection of...

My drafters were allergic to it :( I love the card but if no one drafts it/includes it in their 40, it's not worth keeping a novel and powerful card like that, even if it's a solid finisher for Rx aggressive decks.

What's everyone most excited for in this set? I currently run 8 cards originally printed in the last Dominaria set, and of them, only two of them really deal with the main themes I'd expect to return (legends matter, sagas, saprolings, etc.). I really am hoping for more Historic / Legends...

Yeah, the point of it is that it's not interactive. It's a cool payoff for the aggressive self-mill decks. I think that makes it a bit too narrow, and I prefer my payoffs to have a bit more counter-play available for opponents, but if I sat down to draft a cube and saw Wonder, I'd know I'd be in...

Certainly spoiler season is my favorite time to be here. This was my favorite forum to lurk long before I started posting, and now as the only place I've been able to find thoughtful cube-related commentary on the cards that don't fit neatly into the idea of a 360/450 wtwlf-styled cube (which I...

Going to use www.altersleeves.com who lets you upload your own designs (so long as they don't include the copyrighted elements of MtG cards like symbols, the text of cards, etc.) and make a sleeve like so: + Which when placed over Gut will look as such: (only neater because I'll use an...

I am doing that with Gut already. Looking to make a custom inner sleeve or something that obscures it.

I do love the card, I think it's just a bit too slow for my environment. Really wish I could make it work since the effect is quite novel and compelling, and it supports itself in all kinds of ways, but it's also just a whole tier weaker than my worst 3-drops in blue.

If it had been printed 10 years earlier it would've felt like a cube all-timer and then would've been the most painful cut of my life in era of back-to-back printings of Rabblemaster effects in the mid 2010s.

still a bit derpy in the face there but certainly a clear upgrade all the same, how exciting!!!

My solution is just to have a clone of my cube that pulls just the first printing of all cards, but it doesn't address the emotional distress I have of figuring out if I want to represent these important Magic cards with the historical art I'm eternally bonded to or the sexy new arts and...

I couldn't agree more about how delightful the aesthetic is with the flavor bar, @Onderzeeboot, but I'm actually with @Velrun on a strong preference for the OG printing in most circumstances, with many of the same exceptions listed! I've dropped money I really have no business spending...

Only one new card in the set and it sucks hard my friends: This is the least elegant way to make this card humanly possible, which is awful because it'd be an easy inclusion in my card in literally any other scenario. Also! We have new art! Here are the new arts revealed so far that I...

Rarity-restricted cubes "sound" fun, and are an easy and affordable way to build a cube. It's immediately easy to understand what is allowed and not allowed, and it does help re: communication with other players to know what they're getting themselves into. In this regard, it's certainly better...
