    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    It's between Crumbling Necropolis, Masticore and Mana Leak for me, but I think I'd take the land here.

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    I could be wrong as well but it feels like a lot has to go right for Mire to be any more than a CITP swamp. Maybe it's worth playing for the times when that is the case, but I'm going to skip it for the moment.

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    I've actually been super underwhelmed with Mortuary Mire in BfZ at least. You want to play it early, because it comes into play late, but you want to play it late, so you get value. And even the value you do get is relatively minimal - you need to have a creature in your graveyard that's on...

    Card/Deck Hatebears

    I'm not sure, really. Maybe if you have a very high density of fetchlands or other tutor effects? It does seem very swingy between 2/2 vanilla and 2/2 opponent can't play Magic. Some other options (a lot of which are already cube staples but hey) Spirit of the Labyrinth Ethersworn Canonist...

    General Nonessential staples? (and Gruul cards)

    I like it, it might be best on a pinger but turning any creature into Vampire Nighthawk is pretty good, and it's also especially good with first strikers. It's cheap enough to play and equip that often you can add value to a turn where you'd otherwise have unused mana. Plus you can fetch it...

    What about Reid Duke Esper played in the most recent Pro Tour? No win conditions other than 2 Ugin and awaken cards.

    I was also going to suggest Misdirection as a Force of Will replacement but it turns out that's over 100 tickets?!

    General Nonessential staples? (and Gruul cards)

    Are you playing Pact of Negation? I don't remember. I'd agree that Liliana is the most irreplaceable, together with Crucible and Titania as there aren't really any similar effects. For Engineered Explosives, Ratchet Bomb might serve in a pinch?

    Quirk: FTK Eric: Probably one of the lands, I'm leaning towards Overgrown Tomb Safra: Snapcaster

    General Limiting on-board PWs by limiting PW types

    If the reason you can't play your planeswalker is because you have another one already in play and activating every turn, I don't think you can feel that bad.

    General Cube Drafting on MODO

    I think there are sites that you can buy cards from and then collect them from the site's bots in MTGO, perhaps some variation of that could work?
