    NGL I had a lot more fun casting 2-3 mana reanimate spells on landcyclers than I ever did Entombing Griselbrand and still losing to a removal spell. Troll of Khazad-dûm is really castable and pretty unblockable, and Gloomfang Mauler letting you split up the power is really nice (Put those...

    Yeah unless you intentionally misdirect by activating your mutavault, it won't come up.

    I think this is still a problem :P Like if you play this in response to a draw 2, they take 6

    Why excise amass? Amass is fine, it's just usually worse than creating that many 1/1s, and you're actually MORE all in one bucket than normal with this design. Also do you really want this dealing 1+2+3+4 damage in response to a brainstorm? That seems insane If you wheel while this is in play...

    Card/Deck Cheeky Token Deck

    Jennie Fae is so sweet it almost made me want to build a commander deck. I didn't, because you know...commander. But still! Encouraging, right? I do take this kinda thing further than most people, but I don't run Samwise, not really interested in the combo angle. Check out for ideas...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    It does. There's not a ton of vehicles that are worth it after they're limited to being a 1/1 forever, but yeah Parhelion is one of them :P I don't expect this to come up in my cube drafts, no

    The one me and my local group of friends use to schedule our cube group in Toronto. Don't worry, you're not missing any content :P I agree as well, Urza's Blueprints is a sweet, P1P1 green card that is powerful, but deff not 1G draw 7 powerful, but calling it a 1G draw 7 puts you in the right...

    Okay I just wanna say, my discord got into a heated debate over the definition of "card advantage" after I posted Urza's Landmarks, and someone called it a "2 mana draw 7" :P Like IDK what your opinions of that is, I can see the argument (Bouncelands are card advantage, right? That feels...

    Okay, stash is pretty similar to a few "existing" magic effects: Demonic Tutor Burning Wish You Line Up the Shot Pros: -No shuffling Cons: -Does everyone know what call of the herd does without spelling it out? -If you have a card worth wishing for, why aren't you just playing it? This isn't...

    Attacking being good is the best hero's downfall you can add to your cube!

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    When you feel priced into your design, but still don't want to change it Black has felt frustrating: a sentence that was true in 2012 trying to build a cube, and in my cube today trying to get anything to mesh with Aristocrats. I love the gameplay, but drafting Aristocrats is very boring. 1)...

    So at time of recording Nazgul is "worth" between 10 and 12$ USD. This is preorder price, set comes out tomorrow, but I still think that's a travesty. If you are someone who wants to play with the nine, may I recommend this: Link to imgur album with both images Some people will want one of...
