Hey, just so you know I bear the finalists absolutely zero ill will. And to be fair, your list looks like the most polished with actual play testing behind it, and looks like it'd be actually fun to play instead of a goofy theme excersize that drives me nuts. I'm just upset at WotC. I got...

Man, the more I think about this, the saltier I get. Like, I'm actually angry. I've got to figure out a way to step away and cool down.

Yeah. "The gameplay is more unique and exciting than all “normal” cubes I’ve had the pleasure to draft; a mixture of slight familiarity, Magic history, and creative deck building." Sure, buddy. Suuuuure.

I dunno. I'm kind of interested in the color-shifted cube as it looks like a neat thought experiment, but the lack of play testing kind of puts me off. Sort of disappointed. I feel like we have a half-dozen more interesting entries just on the front page of the forum.

There was also a grand total of 1 copy of Chandra, Torch of Defiance in the top 8... in a sideboard. I guess I was wrong about her after all. I'll go get the dunce cap.

*zzzzzzzz* Sorry, what? The card bored me so much I fell asleep.

Angel of Invention vs Archangel of Thune

The finalists were supposed to be notified yesterday. I hope everyone had good luck. My entry didn't get picked. :(

I'm pretty sure the tokens don't grow. Their P/T is set when they're created. They're worded differently than Voice of Resurgence tokens.

Went 1-2 drop at my prerelease, which is the worst I've done in a while, but this set is fun as hell. I had a super aggressive RW deck with 2 Speedway Fanatics and 2 Renegade Freighters. When the deck was on, it was absurd. Like, killing people turn 5 absurd. I even had a Cataclysmic Gearhulk...

I'm intrigued, but I want to play with it first. I'm also sympathetic to Ahadabans's arguments about blink, and I'm considering cutting a lot of it from my cube. Maybe something along this power level is more acceptable than, say Galepowder Mage or Crystal Shard.

I KNOW, RIGHT?

I mean, what are Baneslayer and Thundermaw if not Serra Angel and Shivan Dragon with modern day stats? At the end of the day they're mostly big balls of stats with a few keywords (no one plays Thundermaw for its ETB). They're more powerful than the cards listed above, but I feel like they're...

It might be a sign of how much I cube that the first card that came to mind was Thundermaw Hellkite.

Y'all are nuts. I started playing in Revised (though there are large gaps here and there, aside from a handful of drafts), and even an old fogey like me can tell that the game is better than it's ever been, and a big part of that is NWO. Mainly because the game finally plays the way I wanted it...

Jeez. Even if I ignore all the energy cards and all the vehicles, this set still feels like it has more stuff for me than usual. Angel of Invention Fairgrounds Warden Fumigate Glint-Nest Crane Insidious Will Torrential Gearhulk Embraal Bruiser Chandra, Torch of Defiance Combustible Gearhulk...

I just doubt I'm going to run any vehicles, to be honest. That's okay. The set has more than enough other interesting stuff for me.

Hey, look. A strictly better Fiend Hunter with the updated wording!

Just as a reminder, tomorrow's the deadline. No pressure.
