    This seems super sweet. I was getting worried that Wotc was going to neglect tribals in this set, considering the thus-far lack of tribal support spoiled.

    Drop Nahiri in G1 and make your opponent think twice about tapping that Gilded lotus! In high-powered cubes, her ability to exile mana rocks does more than I think people are giving it credit for.

    Unfortunately, I think it's probably gonna be along the lines of Wolfmother (love that, I'm stealing it), Jace, Sorin, Nahiri... Can't have a set without Jace, and Sorin kinda actually matters in this set. For once.

    I dunno, but if given the choice I wouldn't want my opponent to search their deck for a creature and slam it into play at no cost, nor would I want to give my opponent the leverage of finding something to tap down my artifacts or creatures and minus her for consecutive turns. Maybe in a cube...

    I'm curious as to what your reasoning is behind Ajani V being better than the new Nahiri. I'm trending towards thinking the opposite, and I'd like to hear someone else's thoughts in detail.

    The cube I'm currently working on (I've been doing a lot of testing btw, I'll update my thread/make a new one with results sooner rather than later hopefully) is legacy cube power level, so I'm amped to jam Nahiri right in. She seems to fit perfectly. She just seems like a great value pick for...

    Nahiri looks excellent. 4 Mana for card advantage, removal (if situational, but that doesn't stop gideon jura from being playable) and a legitimately powerful ultimate? She will be replacing Ajani Vengeant in my cube for sure. Loving Startled awake as a card. It's nice to see another...

    Chaos Draft Deckbuilding Report

    Hi guys! Firstly, I would like to apologize for making a second thread if that was not the correct way to approach this. If this is considered spam, please let me know so I can be more careful in the future. Thanks! Recap: On Sat. night, I hosted a Chaos draft. The packs involved can be found...

    I feel like Pious Evangel could easily have been 2cmc. Is that wrong? It's also worth noting that the odd sculptures in the background of Wayward Disciple are intimated to be part of the ritual that's driving Innistrad mad... You can see the full circle of those statues in the trailer.

    Doing a Chaos Draft this Sat. Night. Would people like me to post decklists/results?

    Everyone will probably just throw in .50c for a random store pack.

    I agree with Sigh here, the Phyrexians corrupt, but they are much more DIRECT.

    Mercadian Masques is my favorite set of all time. I put it in every chaos draft I make :D

    I think my issue is that sometimes I forget that this is a cube forum, and give opinions based on other perspectives (constructed, limited, vorthos, etc.) I took another look, and I'd forgotten several other cards from BFZ that I'd added (Catacomb Sifter, Drana, Zulaport cutthroat, etc. To...

    ...Huh. I just checked my current cube list, and it does have Gideon, Ulamog and oblivion sower in it from BFZ. ...I stand corrected.

    I am so freakin' amped for this thing in the ice. Right there with you. Thankfully this isn't looking like another BFZ... I haven't been disappointed with a card yet!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I am a HUGE fan of living death. I like effects that have a high reward, but make you work to get it. (in this case, making sure that your opponent's graveyard is not well-stocked...)

    I guess it depends on the cube's power level. Both Resto and this new Avacyn seem like they'd be fine in Legacy cube. Edit: Right now I'm thinking that new Avacyn might replace Archangel of Thune in my cube. We'll see...

    My initial impression of the new Avacyn: Crazy cool; very strong. I think Baneslayer Angel may be a better card overall, but it's close. Edit: There's a sacrifice theme in my cube, and she's a shoo-in.
