I had been thinking the same thing, but the middle ability was a series of logic gates that my just-off-of-work mind had not been able to grok properly. And red 5s are right next to white 3s as the most competitive spaces in cube. I love that we get another playable and interesting Tibalt...

Oglor doesn't draw, but he dumps cards in your graveyard and lets you improve the quality of your draws. The power level is not quite as high as a looter, but it lets you look at just as many cards overall, and does so passively, which I really like. It's stupid good with so many cards too with...

If I wanted to include a card with the spellbook mechanic, I'd probably just pick three of the cards that cover the broadest range of effects and let folks pick one. I almost certainly won't do it, but that's how I'd mechanically handle it. Today though, I saw TWO new cards I love, the first of...

I mean I do hate them, and they're super sloppy looking already, but there's some interesting ideas here. I mean, you could make this into a paper-legal card pretty easily. You write it like this: When ~ enters the battlefield, look at the top 6 cards of your library. If there are two or...

I ran it for years and it went last or second-to-last the entire time. Only GR decks were aggressive enough and flexible with mana enough to justify it, and even then, the red two-drops were just as threatening, even if they were less resilient. Green aggro is a dream I can't stop having but...

Agreed that all the "Gotcha" cards are miserable, but I think that Unhinged in general was the worst of the bunch in terms of both design and jokes. And when I say "bunch", I mean it -- according to the MtG wiki, they're now just called "acorn cards (formerly silver-bordered cards)". That's...

One of the biggest reason that you don't see them around is that folks who play at game stores, at least here in the states, are fairly hostile to silver borders. I've seen greater acceptance to Shaharazad both pre and post banning to even an innocent Timmy, Power Gamer in someone's 99 at the...

I'm honestly not sure, but I would bet it does based on some of the results I've gotten.

We use the website, as the card requests. It's more fun to have no idea what you could even hit imo. It's a five-color card that you have to know what you're getting yourself into with it. If the cube wasn't 720 cards, I wouldn't want it, but since it's only even drafted every other time on...

Lucky Paper survey results are out! Nothing too striking to note here and few surprises, considering it seems that the typical cube managers seems to avoid DFCs. Nothing I think was a community miss from playing a bunch of limited with VOW either, except maybe the lovely Voldaren Epicure, which...

Today, Mark Rosewater announced the first real details and teaser cards for the upcoming (un) set, Unfinity, due out April 1st. Unlike the previous (un) sets, this one will not be silver-bordered, and presents some interesting opportunities for us Cube curators and theorizers. But before that...

I very much am part of the anime world, that's a good comparison. Will try it out this weekend! Full spoiler's out. Not sure if I love or hate the new snow lands but I'm leaning towards love for sure. Still a big fan of the Dracula lands, and just like with the Godzilla set before it, I'm...

Card's good at pretty much any power level, not sure you need to do anything to support it specifically.

Please welcome the most milquetoast Secret Lair to date -- the League of Legends cards. Here's the spells one (still waiting for 3 cards currently), and below are the basic lands: I like these a lot, though having not played League or seen the new Netflix show...you could tell me these are...

Peel-able Magic cards. What a world!

Couldn't agree more, happy that this set hits right for some folks, regardless of my personal feelings.

So today, the Innistrad: Double Feature card gallery dropped. Although some had predicted it before, it looks like we're just getting...greyscale versions of every single card between both expansions. Considering (reasonable) hopes for new artwork, even if it wasn't done in the exciting movie...

Now that it's not like $30 (I actually can't find a price history of this card before the Mystery Booster reprints) I'm definitely going to try it out, as I've always loved Raging River and this is a playable version of the effect for sure.

Gonna put some of the Commander cards here that are interesting rather than making a new thread for them. Secure the Wastes meets Pull From Tomorrow? I love stocking up my graveyard and getting enough blockers in the way to help keep me alive while I drudle, I think I like this more than all...

I said in the other thread that I had fewer than 10 cards that I was looking at in my 720 card cube from the set, a record low. Now, it seems I've changed my tune and I have 7 actual inclusions, and another 8 cards I'm considering. THAT SAID, I think this is an uninspired set, even if it does...
