I guess it depends on the format, but there's been a certain other 4/5 for 4 thats had a pretty heavy impact. There's a lot of parts in that list that interact really nicely with each other. How good is caldera hellion though? It feels like card that doesn't want there to be too many other...

So what would that package look like? How far off is something like this? ember swallower ember swallower crater hellion titania, protector kodama's reach

Is it all that poisony to run a bunch of ramp and big dudes in red green though? Sounds like it slots into the other stuff we've talked about. I think there is a bigger danger to it being non interactive than anything else.

Hm, I think I can buy that distinction.

How much better would avenger be with haste?

H Hm. Dealing damage and destroying isn't the same thing though, and they come up more often than one could think. Should white spells be able to trigger a boros reckoner? It's a matter of taste but white cards dealing damage doesn't read right to me at all. I think it's better to maybe make it...

Great post Dom! I totally neglected all the play-from-graveyard cards (like chandras phoenix and vengevine) and I like that list of land themed cards. Less garbage and more punch. Is it possible to run Siesmic Assault as a G/R hybrid? I love the card for a land-toss theme but, it's triple R. Is...

I think a set where all the artifacts were made out of paper would be petty cool

I have not way of evaluating that, but it feels like a slower but more powerful divination that feeds prowess really well?

See you 2016 then when your finished resleeving!

If we suppose that we've left the exciting uncharted design-space of lower powered formats :p), and are back at a regular un-powered cube, maybe then it's still possible to borrow some of this? G/R won't be the control pair, but maybe thats okay, in the same vein we can conclude that while it is...

Wall of Roots or Wall of Blossoms into Abzan Beastmaster does sound totally fine, I'm curious what kind of creatures would lend itself into enabling abzan beastmaster (just walls and big booty fatties?)

We're going all the way down if it means making gruul doing whacky stuff, I guess. But honestly, can't it be a good exercise to brainstorm shit by starting from the premise that the power level doesn't really matter? Ultimately I think as long as the cards you run in the theme can be ran in...

I think I like Viper and Harmonize. The other cards feels like cards you need to work way too much for, and you are already in a color pair that doest lend itself to control all that naturally. Harmonise almost feels like enough explicit card draw support. There is another card that you didn't...

Essentially isn't Hermit Druid and Satyr Wayfinder different takes on the same idea? So one of them let's you get card advantage after initial investment, the other gives you the effect immediately.

I also totally forgot that a RG lands-theme fits really well with lands matter (obviously!) courser of kruphix lotus cobra plated geopede primeval bounty titania, protector of argoth

This was my feeling as well. The trickiest part I think is deciding on what payoff cards you want to play (as far as I know, black has NONE par from murderous redcap!), since the sources to the counters are more or less trivial (so many good creatures come with free counters, and there are...

Man, Haikus Are Hard How do I play MTG? Ramp Into Fatties

Riptide Lab Folk - cmc 2 Human Wizard Some gravy ability 2/1 "its like a goblin piker, but with upside"

So, I know we've been talking a bunch about giving color pairs their own identities, both by figuring out some really out-there stuff as well as by just going with what WotC have been doing themselves and expanding on that. UR Spellslinging I believe is a good example of this, as it's...
