    Lower power and then nighthawk would not be something I expect in the same sentence.

    Nope, (well depends on the other cards you have in the cube). You have 2 creatures, and then playing one more gives you a freebee. I think that Jinny only gets real strong when you have cards that make multiple tokens for not much mana. Like a lot of food/clue/power stone/goats/useless ones.are...

    I agree, but sometimes they do not have an answer. Anger can be answered, wonder is a bit more painful. Let alone: genesis That one is either too slow or unbeatable/inevitable depending on the other cards in the pool. These are fun cards, but only so in a tight band. Some of the anger cards...

    Card/Deck Cheeky Token Deck

    Well, it just gives you one additional creature for each non-token creature you play. Whoop whoop. No, you do not just kind of win.

    Well, if you have one other nonland permanent then your opponent will likely choose that one. Why not cards that do damage to all creatures, e.g., wildfire

    Reveal the stashed cards with ~ and…. Otherwise one can read it like all stashed cards? See cards with exile as an example, e.g., kayla’s music box

    Article Sink or Swim: Making Cube Approachable

    Your examples/text e.g., losing your own stuf to do something, e.g., no voidmage tend to lead to cluttered board states. You are right that nowhere you mentioned make all cards midrange. It could be that I went a bit to far in reading between the lines. My point on number of words does not infer...

    It is a great card in white weenie. Weenie gets foiled by control or big creatures. This solves the big creatures part by allowing white weenie to brake the symmetry and gain a lot of life/do something with a lot of tokens on the side. The sad part is that it does not do anything useful against...

    Article Sink or Swim: Making Cube Approachable

    I agree that we have to make our cubes accessible. However, I do not agree with your points of making it a midrange slugfest. Words on a card does not equip complexity. Examples are keyword soup versus one wordy ability. You are bound to forget a keyword in the soup but not a grokable ability...

    Unpopular opinion but no. Suppose you steal the ring from one of your friends. How do you think the rest of your shared posse will react to you?

    The ring grants 2 powers to normal mortals. It lengthens your life when wearing it and on use you become a shadow which the others cannot see/hurt (the Nazgûl can see and hurt you). This is useful to sneak up on someone or to escape. (It does not make you more powerful unless you are a mighty...

    Did you read the lotr? (Or seen the movie?) The ring grants you shadow on use, but tells the Nazgûl where you are. What is worse is that it immediately makes the wearer (even when not in use) suspicious of their friends. Makes the wearer a target to all since all want it and will kill you. Makes...

    Well, trust me the opponent will trigger at the end of the mid-game. Then the treasure you will get is almost worthless, but the life you lose is worth it for the opponent.

    Yes and no. They did not get the ring right. The movies did the ring justice.

    No it is not. Yes, it scales but no it is not fair. It is also a cheat card. Any expensive equipment with living weapon/for mirrodin/etb equip or cheap equip likes to be cheated into play. That is why batterskull together with the mystic was nasty. The tutor and cheat is what makes it really...

    That’s very likely not to do anything since the opponent has to block with two, what will often kill your menace must be blocked creature. First strike/double strike (with deathtouch?) is making it nasty.
