ah man elder beats. i remember when i used to play modern. am i missing out?

oh man that deck. we discussed it briefly and decided saffi was just about the worst. Skynight's also pretty bad (just geist of saint traft?) and it could use some nobles. other than that an admirable fashion statement

this one can i mean, everyone bins it when they play it and says "i'll just block whatever," right

that ramp mode looks awfully good to me; GG right away + GG twice a turn thereafter. i was influenced by the ari lax article and think everyone should at least try it. fight mode is of course terrible but pretty good with hornet queen! ... I guess.

Strangleroot Geist is pushed enough to fit, I think. In general I don't mind XX creatures as much as you guys, though joiner adept is not that cool, bloom tender is though always kind of wondered about albino troll as someone who used to play that 15 years ago i wish mayor was a little bit...

the first hard counter with only U since arcane denial! in reality UU is way harder than UB in cube for obvious reasons

i don't like any of the multicolored counters i like hinder a fair amount if there is such a concept as "high design upside," forbid has high design upside, you can reanimate stuff or support a fun ass lock

is this an actual card? i mean, it's kinda meh in KKK limited. for beats at 3 there's also reverent hunter and i'm not sure how else you'd classify boon satyr as a lover of green in constructed i disagree with the premise that "we need lots of 3 drops in green because we have dorks," the way...

no wtf spend the slot on brainstorm

i dunno what the right numbers are for "counters of a certain CMC" but i have these twos counterspell disdainful stroke mana leak memory lapse miscalculation negate remand rune snag rune snag rune snag rune snag and these threes dissolve and it's a bit overboard but better in my...

now this is an interesting explanation, everyone does always have a huge amount of mana at their disposal to deathdeal in standard. that card is quite scary and adept at forcing the most awkward blocks in the world and/or abyssing the opponent, it's a good thing it's bad against Hornet Queen...

as i see it the whole point of this forum is to outsource idea testing to other people and plagiarize other people when they do the same. it has worked very well

remember when the higher power cubes hardly had any options at this CMC so had to run cards like Kargan Dragonlord? I've been disappointed with War-Name Aspirant for reasons unbeknownst and think Keldon Marauders is just bad for all the typical platitudes about aggro not being burn in Cube

i like "keyword hunting" in theory because we've all done stuff with card advantage and card selection and self-mill etc. but who the hell has ever played a game of magic to KEYWORD HUNT?

beast hunt

you are the biggest card hipster since me. god bless you, your list is full of more idiosyncratic cards and their kin, things we try once and are complete failures. try phenax and tell us what happens

i am not convinced this card is that good in {standard, cube} without some nice {build-, draft-}arounds. it was fun last week in draft at least

i have also never gotten smallpox to work but, hey, the guy who won the last draft wants it and so he will get it for next time
