No in person drafting for now for me, but that just gives me some time to pick up everything

If I save a dollar a day until the coronavirus is no longer a concern, I might have enough to buy everything

Excavation Forgot about this card....it could almost be decent in my cube :D There's also: Foil Keldon Firebombers Spore Frog (BTW I'm totally cool with my cube blog turning into a masques block nostalgia club)

Playing with real cards is just a pleasure for me. I do proxy cards over $10 to test, until I'm sure I want them, but I dislike playing with proxies. I'd rather trade from my stock of random legacy, EDH, or hot Standard cards I'm sitting on to get what I need

Anyone do any online trading? What platform do you use? I was just estimating how much this newest revision of my cube is going to cost me, and almost soiled myself :oops:

I couldn't type fast enough

I’ve almost run this a few times avatar of woe And these will always have a special place in my heart: chimeric idol Mageta the lion But yeah prophecy is one of the worst sets for sure

Tweaked some selections to open up Gruul and Izzet. A couple more sample decks: Ones 1 Elixir of Immortality 1 Stream of Thought 1 Faithless Looting Twos 1 Thassa's Oracle 1 Wall of Lost Thoughts 1 Fae of Wishes 1 Improbable Alliance 1 Mana Leak 1 Shredded Sails 1 Radical Idea Threes 1...

It's a little clunky, but I could see scarecrone being enjoyable at a lower power level. A package like this could be fun: Unearth Apprentice Necromancer Epochrasite Perilous Myr Vesperlark Weaponcraft Enthusiast Scarecrone Scrap Trawler Skyscanner Sevinne's Reclamation Felidar Guardian...

Yeah, it’s definitely not strong enough for my environment, but I do admire its design. I remember desperately trying to make it a thing in constructed almost 20(!) years ago :D I’d love to see the design revisited and improved upon slightly

brought back I envision cracking a couple fetchlands and getting them right back, saving a couple bros from a wrath, or getting extra value with a sac outlet....getting back a mire's grasp, executioner's capsule, elspeth conquers death, etc. Is the WW casting cost enough to make it too awkward...

Thanks! I'm pretty pleased with how much tidier the last few sets have made things. I really struggled to find interesting identities in Bant and resorted to Show and Tell, Tinker, Dream Halls, Oath of Druids type cards to create interest. So Bant was essentially governing the overall power...

I'm less concerned with pure power level, because I find that Twister is strong enough for my cube. You do make a good point about flexibility in deck application. Twister kinda beats you over the head. It really feels like it has one application. Maybe that's why it annoys me so...

Do you like Radha more than Living Twister or Wrenn and Six? I'm having trouble balancing the amount of three drops in the various lands decks. Twister at times feels a little on the nose flinging lands and surviving wildfires. I definitely like the oracle of mul daya mode on radha over the...

Good to know it was helpful. One of the things I didn't love about the old format of organizing information was that a portion of the decks were pretty fringey. Like Oath of Druids can't exactly be a primary archetype when you have one copy of the card in the cube. It also felt a bit like a...

Thanks for the drafts! Just sharing a couple spicy draft decks from other folks: Dom's UG Self Mill: Ones 1 Aether Spellbomb 1 Vessel of Nascency 1 Careful Study Twos 1 Satyr Wayfinder 1 Elvish Visionary 1 Thassa's Oracle 1 Censor 1 Grapple with the Past 1 Counterspell 1 Wilt...

I'm looking for a new way to articulate the structure of my cube for my thread. What are your favorite ways to format this information? Which cube posts have been the most successful and helpful for you? In my last version of the GCC, I listed each archetype and included a sampling of cards...

Oh, can’t forget oe of my all time favorites: scroll rack

Oracle is much more versatile. The only time I really prefer Lab man is if the self mill deck is straight up combo and you need the static effect admidst a bunch of wheel effects etc. Being a baseline omenspeaker is very handy, and the decks that want this effect tend to prefer the defensive...

Includes: scholar of the lost trove I'm a big fan of scholar. It slots in well with my sneak suite: Apprentice Necromancer, Makeshift Mannequin, Sneak Attack, Feldon of the Third Path. Works great in welder strategies, ramp, and control. Easy include for me. Testing: kels, fight fixer...
