    Frantic Search will do, or Sultai Charm if you are so inclined :P

    I <3 this, and considering that I'm already running Jolrael, Mwonvuli Recluse and Faerie Vandal, and this makes me want to go a little deeper into this theme in {b}{g}{u} with cards like Minn, Wily Illusionist, Thopter Mechanic, Gurgling Anointer and/or Gixian Puppeteer, and include slightly...

    I think they (incorrectly) expected Atraxa to see play in Standard mostly, and tribal is a really old card type that is (probably) never going to be relevant in Standard anymore. Including it in the reminder text would probably confuse newer players more than leaving it off confuses enfranchised...

    Tribal is still a card type, as confirmed by MaRo here. It is still a 9 on the storm scale so don't expect to ever see it again, except in very special circumstances :)

    I’ve been using customs that show both sides of a DFC in a kind of split card way, and have the actual DFC’s in the land station so people can use those while the DFC is on the battlefield. Works pretty well! I have been tempted to cut DFC’s in the past, but Jace, Vryn’s Prodigy and Legion’s...

    The WPN art shows Sarkhan, Nissa, Nahiri, and Karn in the background. We know Karn, at least, is desparked, ans Nahiri is obviously back to her old self somehow?

    I won't fault anyone for wanting to include it, but 3/3 is significantly different from 3/2 or 2/3, as it either trades with less removal spells and creatures in combat, or it applies a lot less pressure. {2}{w} is significantly (though less significantly) different from {1}{w}{w} as well...

    You are definitely correct! If we follow Serra Avenger, it should read "Activate this ability only during your first, second, or third turns of the game." or "You can't activate this ability after your third turn of the game." (if you want it to produce off-color mana on your opponent's first...

    A 3/3 flyer for {2}{W} with no downside doesn't seem power crept to you? I guess we just come from different timelines then, because stat-wise this is literally the most pushed {2}{W} flyer (without downsides) we've ever seen in the history of Magic :)

    Smuggler's Copter is definitely a pushed card though. Who needs broken for high power cubes, efficient or pushed is good enough :)

    Expansive Field Land - Expanse {T}: Add {W}. {T}: Add one mana of any type that no non-Expanse land you control could produce. Lotus Plains Land {T}: Add {W}. {T}: Add one mana of any color.

    I loved Pyramids, Small Gods and Thief of Time :) I also love love love Robin Hobb’s 16-book series about Fitz, the Fool, and the liveships. Here’s your reading order guide ;) This series is seriously amazing!

    Funnily enough, planes are a big reason floppy's are still used. Here's an interesting article if you want some background.

    So, let's say there are 45 green cards in the cube, we have 43 white + 45 green + 2 g/w hybrid cards = 90/360 = 25% of all cards (ignoring colorless cards and lands) are in your colors as a g/w drafter. The b/g drafter, conversely, has 47 black + 45 green + 2 b/g gold cards + 2 g/w hybrid cards...

    As you can gather from the previous replies, there isn't a wrong way to do it. I agree with Brad that, in the end, it's irrelevant where you put it. Players drafting your cube aren't going to notice how you classified your cards, unless you do something really wild like classifying your green...

    I would say, if the book’s not for you, go see the movies. I absolutely loved the books, but don’t you feel like you have to torture yourself (by reading a book you find boring) to properly enjoy the Jackson trilogy.

    Yeah, it looks very glue-y. And I agree, none of it reads egregious or overwhelming, it's just a really solid value package. I think this could be one of those cards that plays well at multiple power levels.

    The set symbol is horribly overwrought. I prefer simpler set symbols that clearly show the rarity color. Also, I've seen people call this the green Dig Through Time, which seems like high praise. Consider, though, that this always costs 3 mana and dumps cards into your graveyard instead of...
