    Highball: Legacy of the Rails

    Digging Through Time, Part 2 I finally know where I want to take this cube, and I think I know how to do it. I have never enjoyed playing Magic as much as I did back when I first started to get good at the game back in 2014 and 2015. While my enjoyment of the game has not experienced an...

    Here's the actual card. I like Squirrel Friend. I'm not sure he's actually good, but I think he looks pretty fun to play with. Maybe I'll make some room for him?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I don't think this card is a good curve topper for aggro because it costs 4 mana and does nothing. An aggro deck is going to have to play more lands than it otherwise want in order to consistently play Endless Horizons. A much better way to ensure white doesn't brick on drawing threats is to...

    Sets Kaldheim Charade

    This Elesh Norn is a fake, the three big giveaways are the paragraph spacing (which is too wide), the "foil stamp" (which is janky), and the art, which was created by an artist known as Zyralynn//Malena Santos and not Daarken.

    Brad found: There's also: I think both of these leaks might be fake. The first snow leak which prompted me to create this thread was probably fake given how Oko isn't appearing on Kaldheim (unless WOTC just didn't tell us about him), throwing the validity of the other two cards into...

    Let's talk about these in the speculation thread. I'm very suspicious of these because Snoko was revealed to be fake and this seems like a weird place for the Phyrexians to show up.

    Card/Deck Elite Equipments

    I made a slight revision to this thread today. I removed a portion where I called Sword of Body and Mind's combat damage trigger the worst in the sword cycle. While I believe it is much lower impact than many people are giving it credit for, I think it's probably closer to the middle of the...

    Card/Deck Equipment Matters (white+)

    I don't know if this is of any help to you but I wrote in-depth about equipments a couple months ago. Although my thread is focusing more on a small Stoneforge Mystic // Stone Haven Outfitter package than a massive archetype, I think a lot of the ideas I express there fit reasonably well with...

    They changed Planeswalkers away from this to what they are now because the original design "Made Planeswalkers feel Stupid." This design happened to work for sagas because stories don't need to feel like intelligent beings. If the board state changes between the first and second chapter of a...

    Remember that all but two of the tribal payoffs we've seen so far are not in the main draft set, just the Set/Theme/Collector boosters. The only two tribal cards we've seen so far which are in the main set are Magda and Realmwalker, neither of which seem particularly parasitic as they are either...

    Card/Deck Artifacts in Cube - Yes, but how?

    Well, I can give you a link to DBS's old cube thread. It hasn't been updated since January of this year, but that was after the post to which you are referring so I'm assuming many of the same principles apply... DBS's Cubetutor Cube Thread

    Wow! What a great new equipment! I can't wait to tutor it up with my Stoneforge Mystic! Wait, I can't actually do that because it's on the back half of the card? Wow. - - - This card is like, actually pretty decent, I just don't like that the equipment part of the card is on the back. I think...

    -So then clearly you don't dislike tribal you just don't like lazy design. -Of course these cards weren't going to be playable, they were made for the non-competitive products (although Youthful Valkyrie might be fine depending on how many good changelings are in this set).

    No it's not, Muxus, Goblin Grandee and Conspicuous Snoop were just printed in June :p However, I think we can all agree that this is the best Trilobite, Brushwagg, and Noggle lord we've seen in a long time... :p

    No. Tribal is cool, and it's not difficult to bake a tribal archetype into a set without having to make it feel parasitic. For example, in my cube, I have a Zombie Tribal sub theme in black because one of my drafters really likes zombies. Despite this, I'm only spending one slot on cards that I...
