    Prismatic Vista is better in a vacuum but I think there are a few more possible synergies with Ash Barrens. They're just about even.

    There is exactly one* mutate card that I think is actively good outside of a mutation-oriented format: Is an aura that turns Llanowar Elves into a 3/4 and gives you a rampant growth really worth introducing a ton of rules baggage into a format for? My gut says no. There is enough baggage with...

    Not to mention the fact that it triggers Drake Haven!!

    I'm having one of those days where I've been super productive but haven't actually gotten anything I needed to get done accomplished.

    The design or the art? The wording isn't elegant, but it basically just gives your colored spells with a fixed cost Delve.

    This card isn't very good, but its art, abilities, and flavor text make me smile.

    General (IKO & C20) Testing/Includes Thread

    This is a testing/includes thread. Post pictures or a text list using /c with what cards you plan to include and what cards you plan to test. Feel free to include your Commander 2020 includes here as well. This set was so weird... I'm not to big on the majority of the Mutate cards and the...

    I would agree, but there's one asian gigamonster that has always managed to sail it's way into my heart: Gotta love some good old-fashioned imperialism!* *(That was sarcastic. If Star Wars has taught us anything, it's that Imperialism is bad)

    I think Nethroi is a little stronger in a cube setting, but which is better really depends on what the format looks like. Eerie ultimatum is a much better (albeit harder to cast) mass reanimation spell than Nethroi, since it can grab any number of permanents of any type. Nethroi, on the other...

    Well, captive has two things that makes it worse than the Almighty Brushwagg in my opinion. First, it doesn't have any built-in evasion. Wolfbitten Captive, even in Krallenhorde Killer mode, doesn't ever have any evasion. A token deck can chump block the thing for days without ever taking a...

    Here's a black-border Super-Duper Death Ray for Onderz.

    It's probably better than Wolfbitten Captive 60 or so percent of the time. Since your R/G section asks for aggro players to insert their hand into their graveyard for Wild Mongrels, it's nice to have a big mana sink that can help to finish games. Mana efficiency can be just as good as spell...

    The Brushwagg is here! All Hail the Almighty Brushwagg! This guy actually seems fine in low-powered cubes, especially ones with counters themes. His raw glory wouldn't quite fit in my current cube, but I could see myself playing this in a different project eventually. I'm happy with this.

    This card is super strong, in a good way. It's basically a second copy of Grafted Wargear for your aggro decks. I love this card.

    Here's the Activator: Remember, Cycling counts as an activated ability, so this guy reduces cycling costs too! I don't know if there are enough AA's that you'd want to reduce the costs on to make this guy playable in every cube deck that tries to build around this, but there are some...

    Hurrah! To be fair, I specifically didn't share it with salvation because I didn't want to get yelled at. I wish that other guy hadn't reposted but whatever. I'm almost wondering if the poster who leaked the "wedge lands" was actually talking about the crystals. Wedge lands still seem too good...

    Modern Cube

    I'm going to have to do a full write-up on this cube at some point- there's a lot of cool ideas here that I think have a lot of potential but there's some weird things which I would definitely change about it. Could you provide a little bit more information about what kind of environment you...

    1) Not really because you're effectively losing two creatures to maybe save one. There are times where this will be fine, but it's really only exceptional when you're using it to save an important creature that is vital to your deck's function. I might be selling this card a little bit short...

    Another Doom Blade variant. This card seems like it could be very good, but only if you have a low density of things that have +1/+1 counters. My cube currently has about 31 cards with counters, although some of them are not things you'd want to remove, but others give counters to the whole...
