    Hmm, sounds like I define it differently than a lot of you, but I'd say: "Card that I won't ever cut on the basis of loving the card rather than any virtue of its own". Meaning that even if you guys sat here and constructed a bulletproof argument for why the confluence is better for my...

    I think that's probably what most folks who end up running it will do. I just can't. Cryptic is wayyyy too much of a pet card. Skrap<2Cryptic5ever

    Is it weird that I love Cryptic Command and kinda don't wanna run the blue confluence because it costs too much? I'm finally starting to drink the kool-aid with this whole "lower your curve" thing and now this...

    General MODO draft my Cube - Saturday the 14th Nov, noon PST

    I can show for this but will have to dip out after about 3-4 hours as I'm hosting an IRL draft!

    Card/Deck Blue GRBS?

    Opposition and Treachery. The rest are strong but not GRBS. Depending on where the rest of your cube is at though, they still could be. If you're finding pure control dominating games it may be time to make other stuff better or tone down some of these options. Of the cards you listed, Dig...

    And perhaps be a plant zombie? I'll get right on that render.

    I'll also rep dash guys as being cool with vengevine, but this is still interesting!

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    Mad respect for this Laz. Incredibly useful bit of code. And yes, google can be a pain. I'm *still* getting emails from them asking me to update tax information so they can pay me like $3 and tax me $1 for a shitty magic android app I wrote in college.

    Card/Deck Flagstones of Trokair

    Compare devastating summons, a card nobody runs (turn 4, make two 4/4 tokens and cast a 3 drop, turn 5 make two 5/5 tokens and cast Hero of Oxid Ridge)

    Card/Deck Flagstones of Trokair

    Is it playable if the activation cost is 1? Tokens and semi-geddon effects are what I'm currently pushing in RW, and Naya in general to some extent (2x catacylsm, wildfire, boom//bust, greater gargadon...). Already running custom token makers in red that spit out humans instead of goblins soo....

    Card/Deck Flagstones of Trokair

    Some excellent points already made here since I last posted, so, in effort to not rehash too much, let me suggest that we want less Fatestitcher and more Thirst For Knowledge That first bit we all agree on. Fatestitcher sucked. And while I think some very good points have been made on varying...

    General Nonessential staples? (and Gruul cards)

    Lili, Titania, Crucible, Jace, Explosives stay, in that order of priority. I agree with being able to hold out until Jace rotates out of standard. Explosives I could go either way on. Goyf and Hangerback are shitty and you shouldn't run them anyway. Deluge is sweet but black can run other...

    Shelldock Isle and Phyrexian Tower are (still) too good for ULD. This is coming from the guy who lets people run four wastelands without spending picks on them.

    Card/Deck Flagstones of Trokair

    I like that it's an extra (shitty) wildfire for the wildfire deck, if that's your cup of tea. Related: I just decided to double up on cataclysm in my next revision because that card is fucking sweet. Unrelated: Wadds, have you changed your stance at all on your idea of sorta stretching...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    I think it's just subtly overpowered in enough dimensions to be unfair. The fourth toughness with the one power with the predictable card draw with the 1W cost adds up to a package that is just a little too effective. Nowadays though, I'm more and more okay with a subtly pushed custom design...

    Card/Deck Flagstones of Trokair

    Yeah, BBE or Shartless if you run him. I think it's certainly fine if you have to be in three colors to do it, and probably fine in GR as a sick two card combo as well. Now I definitely want to run this... D:
