    General Speculation-Thread

    I cast Raise Dead. And then I want to speculate about what themes they could potentially chose for MH2. Maro basically said, that we should expect new ones rather than just more Ninjas, Slivers, Snow and creaturefall. So what new 10 (?) themes could be implemented including some old school...

    Increasing Vengeance VS Mizzix's Mastery The good rating for Increasing Vengeance in the Limited Resources set review made me reconsider it.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Oh, I must have overlooked that one. I think I like that one more than the emblem. It gives pseudo removal protection and is probably the least parasitic heroic card ever and is worth it even in a lower powered cube without heroic support. It is probably gets into "great" territoriy quickly when...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I've recently added this one as a repeatable build around. Not sure if it's good enough for my lower powered environment even, but I'm willing to find out. Proteus Staff It basically has three applications: upgrading your tokens/small dudes into bigger ones, maybe even cheating out enormous...

    What are the most helpful lessons (no pun itended) we as cube designers can learn from retail limited formats of today? What could WotC as limited designers learn from riptide cubes of today?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Well, if you're power level is low enough, it can be a first pick worthy card. Shivan Dragon is in my Ravnica/9th Edition cube. Moonveil Dragon can end games even quicker, especially if you're not a low on creatures control deck. Of course your cube must be fair enough for a 6-drop that has to...

    Well, it's cool to see the shock lands as locations on different planes.

    I just want to add, that 1-mana ramp dorks do fit ower power levels. As japahn already stated, power level is not a number, so you can balance the whole cube in a way, that these won't lead to overpowered stuff. I run BoP, Llanowar Elves, Arbor Elf, Boreal Druid, Wild Growth and Utopia Sprawl...

    Yes, I have a pretty low power level here and vengevine is still totally fine. It feels pretty brutal when you can get it back for free early, but it's not that common actually, when you just spend your mana every turn. I mean, you need to get it in the bin and then play two creatures in one...

    The Elegant Cube v5

    I have to say I'm surprised you're cutting all the morphs. I've never found the gray ogre argument to be based on a good observation, as that's never how morphs except Zoetic Cavern play out for me. I figured that the body only really matters in the first declare blockers step in the turn after...

    It's what I call a heavy hybrid, and since I am actively supporting mono color decks, I play a few of these, fully aware that they only go in three different decks ( A, B or AB). If they are powerful enough (among your better cards at least), they act like a mild payoff for two different mono decks.

    I'm also testing a second card! Should be good with my sac/token themes in these colors, but no trample/evasion makes him fair I anticipate. I also just went up to 5 hybrids per guild, so now it will join Gleancrawler, Golgari Signet, Worm Harvest and Life//Death.

    But ... it isn't card disadvantage, since you will play or otherwise use the card it "draws" you. It's like a tutor then, or a massive modal card. Need a five mana 6/6? Go get Honored Hydra or Roar of the Wurm. Need to draw some cards? Deep Analysis is your painful divination. Need to get your...

    I'm also liking it so far. Last weekend I dropped it and then cast Briarhorn in response to kill an opposing, larger flyer. I felt clever before I lost.
