Recoil is also my general favorite. What metric are you using to rank them? Personal preference? Removal is something I'm considering very carefully. These blocks are stuffed to the teeth with quality removal. Even the second tier of removal is pretty damn good. So Vindicate, Path to Exile...

I had a player quit our playgroup over a Forbid. It was fine, we didn't like him very much to begin with.

The only time I'm pro the 2 mana cyclers is if it's thematic...like alongside: Countryside Crusher Knight of the Reliquary Terravore Centaur Vinecrasher Lorescale Coatl Horizon Chimera etc Then it's a colorless cantrip that any color pairing can use. It's very specific design space. In...

Life from the Loam :cool:

Trying to cull the list down. I'm down to 450. Shortlist below: http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/106849 There's a lot of redundancies to iron out. Like Dimir having: Agony Warp Undermine Recoil Soul Manipulation Spite // Malice Barrin's Spite Deny Reality which is just unnecessary :D

At the moment the cubetutor link is just the collective pool of cards I'm looking at to find themes to hone in on. I think I'll bring the cube count down to 360. I just added all of the potentially usable lands to the pool, and boy is it ugly. I have two options as I see it: 1) Break...

I asked over in the CBS thread for someone to pick two blocks from the history of the game. Onder suggested Invasion Block and Alara Block. Invasion was one of my favorite blocks in magic, and Alara fell during my 8 year fallout from the game. So there's a lot of nostalgia, and a lot to learn...

wooo....might like this one a little more. I loooooove invasion block.

Yeah, you just need to get about a dozen completed drafts under your belt to train it. You want the AI rating to be 100/100 or close.

Spicy and affordable! Thanks!

Not a blocker, but I've always been fond of: Walking Atlas

I'm bored and want something to tinker around with. Someone pick two blocks in the history of magic and I'll try to make a cube out of it.

Without stasis or winter orb, I don't think there's much danger in running kismet. I was thinking of it as a decent disruptive tool for weenie decks. Delay blocks and impede mana development by a turn. EDIT: Neutering blue and red some has been important in my experience of retro cubes. Too...

oh in that case: osai vultures thunder spirit petra sphinx kismet spirit link indestructible aura alabaster potion might I also recommend: sentinel sword of the ages gives you some skies support and control incentives

Abu ja'far Samite Healer Witch Hunter Veteran Bodyguard Personal Incarnation Blessing Divine Transformation Not running legends and fallen empires (both 1994) really hurts white's depth for sure.
