Cube Hit: Artifact Themes Scrapwork Mutt Patchwork Automaton Between Kamigawa and the Brother's War we got a bunch of cool artifacts and worthy payoffs as well. It seems that this years options finally let me flesh out the archetype in a way I've always wanted: nonparasitic. You CAN go all...

Because it is an open ended multi-synergy card in a decent value package that impulse draws cards, while also being wordy and introducing unique counters and tokens?

Charring Spawner Creature - Phyrexian Beast When ~ enters the battlefield, creature a 1/1 red Phyrexian Goblin creature token. Whenever another creature or artifact you control is put into the graveyard from play, put an oil counter on ~. Remove three oil counters from ~: Exile the top card of...

Finally we get some really cool designs in. This one is great, because it's, almost like Gleeful Demolition, a modal card without a list. It can safe your important creature for just one mana, win a combat in the midgame or be a finishing move in the late game. Sweet.

Huh, that's a really cool design. It's basically a split card between Smelt and Kuldrotha Rebirth. Either artifact removal or a synergy piece for yours.

I don't think you need to do stuff like this. All I do is allow a friendly mulligan house rule (7/7/6/6... instead of 7/6/5...). But much more important is a relatively low mana curve combined with stuff like: Priest of Ancient Lore Consider Night's Whisper Reckless Impulse Prismatic Vista But...

Good sir, I will inform you that I am indeed running infamous stadard all-stars like Wild Mongrel or Psychatog!

That's why my golden formula is good card draw and smoothing with humble, old school creature stats. So games don't turn into decision low non-games but you don't get punished for stumbling as hard either!

So far, this is the card that interests me the most. That being said, I really have trouble evaluating it, which is why I wanted to bring it up again for discussion. I usually dislike snowbally threats, but this is kinda slow and maybe predictable enough that I'm okay with it. I like how well...

It is. But like most of what we've seen so far, it seems tricky to utilize for cube. Which cube deck on which power level wants to, for example, spend three mana and 10 lifepoints for a treasure and a Divination? I really want to see more "For Mirrdoin!" cards. Seems like a better version of...

Yeah, potentially. But you also mentioned Saga's, which aren't a new card type, but an enchantment subtype. So ... why isn't 'Battle' an enchantment too? The reason for it would at least not seem obvious to me. New card types carry a lot of problematic stuff with them. Like, what colors can...

It seems to be the case, actually. Looking it up on scryfall, Tarfire is a "Instantáneo tribal" in spanish. So there is a very real chance, that "battle" is a new spell type. But how could it possibly work?

I really hope so and halfway expect it to happen. Hopefully they also return the stunning showcase frames. Those were the first and they haven't been matched so far.

Pretty enamored And not that far from peak. Limited has been great last year, three of the four premier sets have been super fun. We've been getting cool stuff like retro frames and flashback sets for Kamigawa or Dominaria. There are also quite a few products to ignore, but why would I care...

My man train dropping the truths

Hot take: Magic would be a better game if they would primarily design for limited.

I think it's time that black's enchantment removal reaches the quality of red's artifact removal. Unlink green and white, those two colors can only kill one of the noncreature, nonland permanents, but in that category, they should at least be able to keep up. Feed the Swarm Extract the Truth...

How about temporal counterspells like Memory Lapse? I know, we have Lapse of Certainty, but I mean why only that really bad version? Locking something away is really white.

sorry mate, I didn't read the 'french' before 'vanilla'

They basically stopped with white reanimation after, I think, 7th edition roughly. Then they tested the waters with white wheenie reanimator and finally got back to also allow it to reanimate bigger things occasionally. Breath of Life Elspeth Conquers Death
