    General What build arounds do you run?

    I really like Jeskai Ascendancy, can you actually go combo with it, or is it just supposed to be good value in your cube ?

    I'm pretty stoked that Secure the Wastes has synergy with: Furystoke Giant and Burn at the Stoke. Otherwise it is just worse than most of the cards mentioned by Onderzeeboot. A little bit better than Tempt with Vengeance at least !

    Aggro is really good in my cube and our group does play aggro when the picks lead that way, but usually i don't see black aggro that much, so i decided to cut some of the early drops from it. Gravecrawlers are really great still because you can combo off with them in so many ways :)

    Pre-release weekend over. Sundays games went a little better and my deck was a little bit more sweeter. Went Silumgar and opened a pre-release foil Sidisi, Undead Vizier. Also had all the parts for real exploit madness like: 2x Palace Familiar, Dutiful Attendant, 2x Vulturous Aven, Silumgar...

    I think one thing Delver of Secrets has going against it is, that people don't have fond memories of it in constructed formats. It is a creature that kills way too easily in the right setting and is oppressive to play against in a constructed environment. Aluren was the only one that no one...

    First Dragons of Tarkir Pre-Release and 2 cube plays are behind me. Pre-releases went pretty horribly, 1-3 drop. Luckily i can go to another pre-release tomorrow. But i opened a pre-release foil Ojutai's Command and i got a pre-realease foil Myth Realized, Narset Transcendent and Shaman of...

    Next up i am observing what a classical control could look like. This one is a bit tricky, because you could be control in any color, so i try to keep it under blue, white and black. Countermagic: Removal and mass removal: Card draw/card selection: Finishers: I think that the...

    Yeah, i haven't really laid everything out when i have been changing my cube. This is my first attempt on laying everything out there so that i see if i actually made an archetype work. One of my concerns is that my cube will become too combo oriented. But at least there would be that other end...

    After the painful trip to Storm-land, here is: Wildfire Wildfire Wildfire Best cards to ramp with to get Wildfire going (+bouncelands): Creatures wild enough to survive the fire (finishers): Seems fine to me. I've played Wildfire with 2 copies in the cube before and it has...

    Most hated archetype in this site comes next ? Brain Freeze Mind's Desire Storm Entity Grapeshot Empty the Warrens Ignite Memories Tendrils of Agony Hunting Pack Engine to build up your storm (non-aluren or enduring renewal): Before i "broke the singleton", storm was doable in my cube...

    Third one is: Goblin Welder Goblin Welder Trash for Treasure Daretti, Scrap Savant Cards that dump targets to the bin: Main targets for Welder: Artifacts to swap for main targets: Hmm, might not be enough reanimator-level targets for Welder.

    American Football set in the Warhammer universe. It is Turn-based When i started, i didn't know anything about American Football, and i haven't played any warhammers, still i got hooked to that game really hard.

    The 'Draw-a-Card' cube

    First thing that popped into my head: Oblation Stuff used with prowess seems interesting to me. White has options for that: Shelter, Unquestioned Authority, Abeyance, Aura Blast, Dismantling Blow, Defiant Strike, Pressure Point
