A couple points to keep in mind: My cube is always sealed, so nobody gets to "draft all the planeswalkers" Aggro is roughly 1/3 of the decks that get played, meaning durdly planeswalkers can definitely be a liability. The fact that they're all multicolor was very intentional. -and- I make no...

I do feel like we need a little bit of glue to make this cube functional borderland ranger fertile ground faith's fetters read the bones Also, I realize that providing ramp in green could be questionable. While its pretty integral to green's game plan, it seems like it could be very strong in...

I've noticed there seems to be a lot of indifference towards planeswalkers on this forum. They provide incentives to play slow midrange/control without needing to be insta-stabilizing or untouchable executioners. They provide the card advantage that control needs, but can be interacted with by...

Good god, when I first (mis)read howl, I thought it just made 2 wolves on morbid. Still, Yeva never did anything in my cube and she trades some power in exchange for making a bunch of your creatures have flash. I guess it all depends on how easy it is for green to hold up mana and not regret it...

pyromancer's goggles If we're going to have red do something that isn't all out aggro, this seems hella sweet. explore The prospect of playing this with bounce lands is also sweet. coiling oracle Same concept. Also, is just a reasonable early game filler card rite of replication Are we doing...

So I find this interesting because I played lotus cobra for a long time in a pretty high powered custom cube and had to nerf it to the 3 drop slot (it got deathtouch as a consolation prize). I was running 20 fetches, 20 shocks, and 5 evolving wilds at 400 cards. Sealed may be a bit different...

I like obelisk. Admittedly, it's not repeatable, but magnifying glass's ability just feels a little too expensive. Also, after reminding myself of what's in your cube, I would say that magnifying glass doesn't seem like it would be very playable.

I drafted your draw a card cube a couple times as per the bot settings in your link So I'm not totally sure what's going on, but I like it. Color roles are definitely a little different from what I'm used to. Same for pick priorities. Fixing is everywhere, most removal is conditional, and I...

Wickerbough just doesn't ooze value enough to make it an exciting pick for me. Slime always has targets and the deathtouch is definitely relevant.

So my experiences with vorepede have always fallen into 1 of 3 categories: It rots in my hand. It "dies" to oring, path to exile, faith's fetters, etc. Or it just steam rolls someone. You might say that those are pretty normal expectations for any large green creature, but I feel like vorapede...

On a related note, whenever I drafted your cube a couple times, I didn't have any idea how easy it would be to get colorless. I ended up avoiding the colorless cards because of that. Getting a feel for fixing can take a few drafts so I wouldn't be surprised if other (random) people did the same...

All I know is that matter reshaper in red excites me.

Sealed Decks 3 player round robin today. http://i.imgur.com/2TE3f8e.jpg Went 0-2. This was a combination of a couple bad hands and one or two super critical misplays (both involving holding up mana for a card that wasn't actually an instant). King Toad seems to be very strong, judging from...

Desperately avoiding writing a report.... One big thing after drafting a couple times. On the cube tutor blog it says that lands are drafted separately. How much fixing do people get? Its a little disconcerting to draft a cube and see zero lands. I just assumed that fixing mostly supported 2...

Sealed Decks Today was just a single match (5 games) between me and another guy. We both ended up playing grixis. http://i.imgur.com/tzA7DS3.jpg This was my deck. I saw I had bolas and griselbrand in the same sealed pool and figured that I was obligated to follow up on it. From my...

I can't follow the cube tutor link on mobile, but I remember thinking that I had didnt enough good options at high cmc to warrant trying to pod into them. Especially since my curve was heavily 3 drop oriented so it was possible to get stuck at a cmc and be unable to pod up.

(Full disclosure, I went in blind) Draft 1, I first picked glare of subdual. GW was definitely the open colors for my seat, but I'm not sure about the deck I built. I had some cards for constellation, but not enough that I felt comfortable putting sigil of the empty throne in my deck. It also...

When I say bombs, I meant that they are far and away the strongest card in the pack and I have little incentive to pick something else. As for removing them, there are tools to get them out of the way, but I feel like they're strong enough that if you don't answer them immediately, they will...

(to the next poster, choose a cube from someone else who has posted in this thread) I don't remember what exactly I chose for p1p1, but the pack was pretty weak. Then p1p2 a random Sun Titan appears. My first impression of your cube there is a huge gap in power between some of the cards. In...
