    Aw shit. That’s a good point. I mean, you should be able to choose, right? Both happen on etb, and if you have two triggers at the same time that you both control, you get to choose in which order to apply them. That said, maybe I was a bit too much in love with the "if X = 5 you get to look at...

    I’ld like to add a mono blue and a mono red ravenous creature to the cube as well, since Temur has a ramp theme. I have some thoughts for the red one, but the blue one I’m not really… I’ve got some details down, but I’m looking for an appropriate rider. Ive got a great image of a goose flying at...

    Aberrant So, I had been itching to add Mawloc to my cube, and initially thought Aberrant had square stats (P/T = MV) as well, but during testing I discovered it's a 2 mana 0/0 :( Considering Trygon Predator is also in my cube, what is the correct P/T to put on a custom Aberrant, such that it is...

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    I don't think the Rakdos vibe really translates well to the name Blood Crypt. Look at that Secret Lair art though, now that's a Blood Crypt! Easily my favorite! Out of the Ravnica arts, RNA looks the cleanest, but also the least like a Blood Crypt. I think RtR and Dissension both did a better...

    I get what you’re going for, but I’m looking for a {W/B} design, and that’s a {B} design. For flavor’s sake, let’s say this machine annihilates everything to harvest life essence and return that essence to its creator ;) Personally I’m happy with how the current version looks, and that’s the one...

    All right, all right... What about this? Increasing the doom counters now is mandatory, and happens in your end step, so the opponent has to immediately sacrifice something. This lets you nuke up lands (the admittedly best part of Smokestack), and it should let you rack up more doom counters...

    This is a fair point, and one I considered myself. I contemplated using “X is twice the number of counters”, but that seems a bit too harsh. As is, the main effect is what this card is all about, and I don’t think I need to put something extra on there that can stand on its own. The life drain...

    Yes, feel free to steal that art. Also yes, that's definitely an improvement! And yes, Smokestack killing lands is the best part, but Smokestack's also in my cube, and I don't want my custom to be just a straight upgrade if you happen to play the right colors for the Smokestack deck anyway. I...

    That is a cool design, but because I run a heroic archetype in Boros, I want the card to be able to target your own creatures in a pinch :) I'll try a 2 damage to any target version instead of what I had. How about a "non-toxic" Smokestack that has a final punch? I'm currently running Doom...

    Ok, I want this to be a cantrip, but I don't want to feel the equipment part... tacked on. I did a pretty big redesign to make room for a different idea. No more life gain, and no more sacrificing the staff to cantrip. Instead you are now incentivized to equip for a repeat trigger, and you get a...

    You only get something back from your graveyard (i.e. cantrip) if you sacrifice Genesis Staff. So equipping it gives you more mill instances, and thus more life and more potential targets for when you do eventually sacrifice it.

    True, but I'm trying to get more connive in my cube, so that's why I specifically made it a creature. I find this one hard to gauge. How strong is this? What's a fair equip cost here?

    He’s not actually that big, but he’s been eating all kinds of shit to learn how to cook, so his constitution is through the roof ;) (For real though, look at that fireplace behind him for size reference. That rat is nightmarishly huge!)

    I love your suggestion, but I don't want to quote earthly sources :) PS. I would have totally quoted Da Vinci otherwise: "Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return."

    Since B is my favorite one, and that means I got four different answers, I'll just stick with the official color scheme and be consistent with what people expect XD For Davelle, I realized I forgot the Legendary supertype. Unfortunately there's no room for more text there, so meet Consummate...
