    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    None of the replacements you showed I would play over a mediocre 2-drop, except for Call the Skybreaker as a wincon in control. Djinn Illuminatus looks fun in the format though, while Enigma Sphinx looks particularly bad in it. Why do you need a lot of multicolored 7-drops? 7-drops are narrow...

    General Tinkerer's Cube (MTGA)

    Thought I'd write a report on how many drafts in this format went. It's not a great format, has glaring balance issues and I don't think it really achieves anything close to what the name suggests, but... it was fun, it was interesting, and it was enlightening. Thanks to untapped.gg I have the...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    It's not a great slot for high power. Normally people run Craterhoof Behemoth and call it a day. I like: Sandwurm Convergence Feels powerful, but not unbeatable if you're ahead. Another option: Woodfall Primus Terastodon is also nice like Aston said.

    Card/Deck Artifacts in Cube - Yes, but how?

    So I'm not loving Toolcraft Exemplar as a white payoff because it's narrow, fragile, and skews too much towards aggro. The other options in white I found were: Angelic Purge Indomitable Archangel There are others that work well with spellbombs and the like, such as Teshar, but my artifacts...

    General Triangle Drafting: A faster asynchronous drafting format

    So you pick from: 9/8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1 8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1 7/6/5/4/3/2/1 ... 1 In triangle draft, your average pick is from 3.67 cards. In a regular 3x15 draft, your average pick is from 8 cards. Doesn't that make any type of microarchetype drafting way, way harder, especially with the lack of signals?

    Sets (KHM) Kaldheim Testing/Includes Thread

    If it was in the upcoming D&D set, it might read "Counter target spell. Its controller mills 1d3 cards, then..." It's not a huge difference in word count, but it improves readability. I think I'd like that change. It's extra terminology, but it's pretty known and easy to learn.

    Card/Deck How to Port Constructed Decks into a Cube Environment

    I'm not sure what the message is. Is it: "Macroarchetypes (aggro, midrange, control, tempo) can be ported from constructed to cube, and here's how" or; "Macroarchetypes are trivial to port, but many specific constructed decks are not. Here is how I tried to do it" I agree with the first...
