    Had or have all of this. Great minds. A little scared of how early this stuff can get our big boys out there. This is a great suggestion, I think. I missed these ones. That said, I'm debating adding an artifact theme to the cube. It's already themed around big mana as a full format theme and...

    Does Bridled Bighorn's token creation suggest that the saddler rode it in more ways than one? What's the flavor here?! I'd downvote Spree if I saw it on r/custommagic, but my format is always open to a Kicker variant. I hope no one at WotC did anything gross to that Prairie Dog whose text we...

    Brad Loves Eldrazi

    I wanna play it so badly, but there's a ton of good cheap Eldrazi that it breaks. I have a lot of ramp and probably need to make my 6 drops shittier so that they don't reap the rewards of the ramp before the Eldrazi get to.

    I've got one list going that's got bounce/scry/surveil/pain/filter as the mana base. Trying to slow it down and keep some colorless presence with MH3 teasing that it'll be relevant, but it's really hard to get to 10 mana. Artisan of Kozilek Emrakul, the Promised End Emrakul, the World Anew...

    These fuckin' things cost so much more than other good cards. Strugglin' to make 'em work.

    I always like how simple and effective Boros charm is.

    Grab a microscope if someone prints that in card size.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I don't think it would matter or get played, as Wastes don't have duals. Nor should they, thematically. It's only a relevant ability thanks to fetches, shocks, and triomes. And that stupid Leyline. If anything, it could be interesting for cubes/limited.

    I see what you're saying, but I don't see why we can't simply add "T: Add C." the same way that Bosk got "T: Add W or B."

    General [Contest] Ravnica Reimagined (Entry Closed - Judging Complete!)

    I was thinking along the same lines for Arise being a bit better, but Onder's point about coming back as a 1/1 is interesting. Having the second body be a different size opens up some space, but having the first body be the same(ish) size has been proven to be fine, as well. Onder, you say you...

    What about Murmuring Bosk as an example? Sure, it creates additional colors of mana, but it's a basic land type that taps for mana not of that land type.

    See, I run a lot of lands outside of cycles and I run varying numbers of multicolored cards. I'd say Canopies are super fair game to proxy. Hardly even counts as custom. That said, MH3 is a great opportunity for them to finish this cycle. When I change to sort by curve, it makes that...

    I hadn't considered this, but you're right. You could slap "Forest Plains" on a pain land and call it a day. No rules rewrites required. I think that a powered up version of Shire Terrace is one strong solution. Make the second part a 0 mana tapped fetch or a one color untapped fetch. Hell...

    As someone who's currently doing this, I can say it's way worse. If you're running a {G}{W}{c} deck, for example, there's only two lands that can achieve that. Neither of which can be fetched. The ability for a typical 3 color deck to grab a fetch or two and a shock or two is huge. The only...

    I think the disconnect here is that you two are focusing on different aspects of the mechanics. Train is looking at the shallow card pool, whereas Mown is looking at the potential. Neither archetype is very well fleshed out right now. MH3 might make them more universally playable, but there's...

    Those three seem too high variance. Ideally, the Proteus Staff aka Polymorph deck runs token producers and/or manlands in order to control what they will hit off the deck's namesake spells.

    Defense scares me. Pattern is potentially fast, but it adds a cool tool for some sort of sacrifice deck. Maybe Polymorph isn't so crazy lol. Be nice if some of the cheat wasn't green and it opens a whole archetype, likely in UR. nikya of the old ways Things like this qualify, too. Can hit 12...

    Reminder text can be shorthanded because it isn't rules text, I believe. Look at how the rummage is worded on learn. There might be more than one other example. I'm sure there is lol. "Enters" kinda makes me feel like asking "enters what?" but I don't really care that much.

    Into play is enough. Looking into making the Eldrazi a possibility before hitting 10ish mana, but I still want them to hit the board later in the game. In fact, into play is probably better than casting them. They should lose something if they're cheated, ya know? Ignite the Future is pretty...
