Might be too insane CT, but I'd say run it and see how filthy it feels. Also, do you mean plains or basic plains? It's extraaaa filthy if you mean plains.

Note the interaction between boom/bust and cascade. Whether you want that effect or not is up to you, but everyone should certainly be asking themselves if they're okay with it :) (personally I think it's pretty sweet...)

I've been thinking this exact same thing. Prowess/heroic as a deck really needs some kind of marginal repeatable effect.

Definitely respect your opinion FSR and the way that you delivered it. I'm probably one of the more vocal proponents of proxying here, but I haven't articulated my own stance on it very well in the past; I've just said "yes absolutely proxy everything" My stance is essentially that cube...

Basically just do whatever you want. Threads derail all the time here and we routinely have the same discussion across 2-3 threads at once (see: simic)

I'd be curious about details as well Safra/Suic

Hate to say it but it gets more dangerous the bigger your pool of players and hosts are :/ Only takes one friend-of-a-friend getting invited by some new RipLab host to fill that 8th slot at the last minute and our sweet communal pool is out hundreds.

I think to some extent it's almost the nature of cube that we're spread out the way we are. Local playgroups don't need a density of designers. And the riptide tourism aspect is a fun upside too I guess. I wouldn't be ashamed of 4-6 man numbers. I constantly push this idea but if you haven't...

A handful of the guys know one another from real life, other second-gen scrubs like myself found the forum through Jason's CFB articles right when they came out. More of us have met irl since the forum has gone on (for example Shamizy and I discovered that we both live in San Diego...) The...

Welcome!

Definitely would be fun, but if the goal is to pull in mainstream interest, we have to start with something that looks more like "real cube" (lol)

foil ludevic's test subject. Might be the only real card left in my cube :D

@CT you might try my approach of paper cutout proxying the full cube and slowly taking transparencies to it when you find some idle time and want something mechanical to do to just shut your brain off. In large doses, foil proxying is torture. In small doses it can be a relaxing little hobby you...

Yes, but if I were you I think I'd kill myself before having to write that much. If you're willing to fall on the sword though... by all means review them! also, @Grillo, yeah as soon as I hit "send" last night I remembered a bunch of swaps that I'd left out of my submission D: I knew I would...

Ludevic's Test Subject is a good one. Great way to make those turns where you don't counter something feel good instead of stupid. You still feel pretty stupid when they doom blade your 12 mana guy, but overall I like the dynamic of the card a whole lot.

That's the same argument I leveled at the use of top; if you just run redundant effects, you save mana (time) and a card. Interesting that you feel differently about tutor! I may have to try it myself just to see how it feels running it. It did get used against me once as a three mana path to...

This is random but I've been seeing lots of newer players in my playgroup jamming Top into very aggressive decks. My brain hates the idea of spending a card (and a mana per turn) on card quality in a deck that just wants to kill my opponent.... can somebody who actually knows how to play this...

Yeah will submit mine in the next day or two

I like that it's a double strike guy in colors that want that. I don't like how it has basically 0 play to it and is just generically good. What does this want me to do? Attack and block with it and... curve out by playing more guys? Ajani Vengeant isn't really that much better, but at least I...
