And what about Vedalken Shackles? We can steal a creature, sacrifice it, then repeat this process

Hello, comrades! Has anyone had any experience with this archetype? I have some cards which might fit it well, but don't have a game-plan in my mind. I don't even know what it should be: midrange or control? Iconic steal effects: Dragonlord Silumgar Connive // Concoct Threads of Disloyalty...

Yes, that's what I understood only after a couple of drafts. I felt there're some slots that could be filled with more flexible and demanded cards. That's the reason for why this question appeared :) Thank everyone!

Hello, guys! I need your help again ;) We've already playtested our modern cube a couple of times, and now we have a new question: how many creature 1-drops should be in an average cube aggro deck? At first, we tried to figure the approximate quantity ourselves, but we still didn't succeed. We...

Thank you very much, guys, now I have a better understanding of how such kind of a deck should look like in general and in cube in particular. Also, do my decisions on how many ramp spells should be at each step of the mana-curve of a deck have to depend on the idea of what exact card/group of...

Ok, thank you!

How many ramp decks typically appear in your cube during the draft? And how many mana rocks usually go into control decks?

Hello, dear friends! Happy New Year! Hopefully, you've celebrated it with your friends and/or relatives, and, hopefully, you were warm and full. I've been playtesting and trimming my cube list for some time, and one problem I've faced is Ramp as an archetype. Here're some questions which I'd...

I like UB artifacts, too:) Also, I'm going to try Spell Swindle. Probably, it could create more artifacts for Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas, than Confirm Suspicions. And what about UR artifacts? Haven't you tried it? Dominaria is also a home for Jhoira, Wheatherlight Captain, I'm gonna test it, too...

Is Martial Coup too strong? Maybe, it's not the most interesting finisher, but is fits better into my UW Spells Control deck, than something like typically used Sun Titan.

Thank you! For me it's really useful

There's one more question on control: how many counterspells does a Control deck need? I run not only control decks, but also Tempo (Aggro-Control). Does it mean that my blue section should be chockfull of counters? I heard there're two kinds of control: Draw & Go and Tap-out. Probably, the...

How do {G/W} tokens go in your cube? I Glimpsed your list, and, AFAIU, they're closer to Midrange? I saw GW tokens in Modern. They play a dork on turn 1, and next turn they start casting their Spectral Processions and other token generators and pump the crowd up with Nissa, Voice of Zendikar...

Sorry, this thread appeared because of a lack of creativity. I have some problems with supporting artifacts in my cube. Red-white Aggro artifacts are, probably, nicely done, but blu-based decks don't diversify from draft to draft. I guess one of the reasons for that is artifacts which are useful...

Thank you for the explanation! Sometimes I think, why not cut planeswalkers from the cube? Probably, the only one which is really needed in my cube, is Ajani Goldmane as an anthem. Probably, he can be cast only when you're ahead, too, but it doesn't seem to be a problem for a deck he goes in...

Does Narset do any job in cube? Someone called it disappointing, similar to Domri Rade. I didn't go deeply into reading why exactly, I was looking for some another piece of info

Dear friends, are there some good cards in blue and white to build a spells deck around? Snapcaster and Torrential Gearhulk are already included. I'd like it to be not a Control/not only a Control, because we already have Control Spells Matter in UR. The thing is I've just decided to cut U/W...

Ok, I'll try to play with the materials I have. Thank you!)

Yeah, the question of mana acceleration is what I started pondering a few minutes after thinking about wraths. So... We increase the mana cost of wraths and mana rocks, it slows down non-green Control decks. But in my cube green has some turn-1/2 ramp spells. They usually go into GR Ramp, but...

Good day, folks! I pointed out that Aggro decks in our cube tend to curve out on 3-drop pile: there're only two or three 4-drops, they are typically "packleaders": Hellrider, Brutal Hordechief and so on. So, it means, that turn 3-4 are crucial for Aggro in our environment? And the next question...
