    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Previews

    So there was a "leak" of some Modern Horizons 2 cards and cycles earlier this month, and it has basically been confirmed at this point since several of the preditictions were confirmed during the day 1 preview show. I'll put them in a spoiler here:

    Actually, it doesn't because those cards have the mana costs {X} and {X}{X} respectively. Urza's Saga can only grab cards with Mana Cost {0} or {1}, not Mana Value 0 or 1. Basically, it can grab: Black Lotus Mox Emerald Memnite Pyrite Spellbomb Bomat Courier But not: Lotus Bloom Mox Tantalite...

    Let's not kid ourselves, any cheap interaction can be broken in commander ;). This particular card is really good because it can function as an addition copy of crypt/ring, though. I think 8-15 is probably the range one would be sufficient. I'm looking at the Penny-Pincher Cube 2.0 which had an...

    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    You know we're in for a doosey when the basic lands have three lines of text: However, these lands aren't the only wordy cards in the set! Take a look at these: These cards are cool. Power Word Kill is probably going in to a lot of cubes, but I feel it runs into the Heartless Act "problem"...

    Holy Gosh you guys WOTC made the wierdest card ever in this set: So it's the first Enchantment Land, but it's a Saga, and has the Urza's subtype. This card might be good, although I beleive it takes a spell slot and not a land slot. The "sketch" version is cool, though! The enemy fetchlands...

    The Black Cube

    I don't think this card is anywhere close to Wild Mongrel in terms of power level. I think you need a lot of dedicated outside of some madness cards for this one to cut it in most environments. I think your cube is in a unique position for Stromkirk Condemned to be good because {B}{B} is not...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I'm testing this card at a relatively high power level. I have no data with this card yet. This Jace is more of a card that acts only as a card advantage engine and not anything oppressive, so I think this card is fine at several different power levels.

    Unpowered Fair Stuff

    I'm liking some of the swaps so far, but I believe you are using a strictly worse Shock art. Clearly the best shock is the English mystical archive version and not the Japanese mystical archive version. :texas:

    Yeah, Sea Snidd is so much more powerful than Kianne, Dean of Substance it's just plain sad.

    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    I think some of the designers who intentionally build low-power Cubes or Cubes that do not prioritize hyper-consistent gameplay are perhaps having a hard time seeing where Funch is coming from. If you've been playing Kor Skyfisher to good effect for a decade and then someone comes in and tells...

    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    Is your argument not that you believe it is not productive to discuss the base rates and power level of cards because you think experienced designers already mostly know how these things work? I think that there is a lot of nuance that can be spawned from discussions of power level and rate in...

    Sigh, again?

    Well, I know you've already seen my post in Erik's thread, so I'd reccomend trying to reach the densities of reanimation effects and targets listed there. To fill out your gold slots, you could use Ashen Rider and Obzedat's Aid, as those are both good cards that support the reanimation strategy...

    Sigh, again?

    Have you considered Reanimator? Otherwise, I like Corpse Knight, but I feel that card really wants to be in some sort of combo deck where it can trigger several times in one turn off of like Rally the Ancestors or something.
