    Sets (UND) Unsanctioned full spoiler

    This. Of the new cards in this set, the only one that I feel is truly cube-worthy is Flavor Judge. Blanking their removal spell (provided that the in-game lore doesn't make sense) is very, very nice. My Selfless Spirit is now safe from being Murdered! Updated art for Timmy is good...

    I don't think fight with fire really counts as a burn spell- it's more of a cross between Murder and Fireball, both of which I would categorize into other groups. That said- it's a very flexible card and I think it's worth playing for the reasons you mention above. Removal+Finisher is a good...

    These are the ones I would consider playing, not including Fireball effects. Burst Lightning Chain Lightning Lightning Bolt Lightning Strike Searing Spear Searing Blaze Searing Blood Magma Jet Lava Dart Firebolt Flame Jab Shock Volcanic Hammer Incinerate The best burn is the cheap stuff that...

    Building the Noob Cube

    2-color archetypes. Let's go over each of the 2 color archetypes in the cube. Each two-color pair has a set of two identical "signpost" gold cards meant to help signal what that deck wants to be doing. Each color pair also has a hybrid card meant to fit with the primary theme of the color pair...

    Is it not exciting as in it's not splashy or is it not exciting as in it's not a good card. Those are two very different things IMO.

    Thank you guys! I am definitely going to use at least some of these. Also, I went through and counted words on the common/uncommon slots of m19 and 20 (not all of the way but enough to get a feel for the average) and it seems like I can have about 15 words per card before I start getting...

    I need help finding Vanilla creatures (creatures with no abilities) and French Vanilla creatures (creatures with only keyword abilities) for my Noob Cube. I started populating the list and my average word count per card is already above what I want it to be. Try to make sure they're reasonably...

    Building the Noob Cube

    Building the Noob Cube I have a lot of friends who I am in the process of teaching Magic. The end goal, of course, is to broaden my local cube community. However, I have a problem- my cube is too complicated for magic new players to fully enjoy. For example, I recently had one of my friends...

    Do you think Bend or Break is a card anyone is going to actually play? It doesn't seem that good, especially in a fairly high-powered environment like yours. I say if Ravages of War has been good in your white aggro decks, then don't replace it because it already has shown results.

    Sets [THB] Theros Beyond Death *SPOILER*

    I figured as much. Functionally, the cards are very similar except for the fact that the Chimera can reasonably be cast on turn three and doesn't have vigilance. Either way, I like the card :cool:.

    Daybreak Chimera is probably the best {1}{W}{W} creature ever printed at common.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I think temporary reanimation is more black than white, and I think a black deck can more easily make use of the ability of this card.

    Like 3 people asked me to make a thread, and I didn't have a lot of time to troll the forums yesterday, I just didn't see it. If I get asked for something, at least give me 24 hours to do it before making a new thing (or at least msg/tag me telling me you did it). I don't always have a ton of...

    (Decided to split this into two posts so that I could put more cards into the "try" category) Test if I open/feel like it. My baby boy all grown up: THB would be the best cube set in years if it weren't following exactly Modern Horizons andThrone of Eldraine. Although the new selection of...

    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. I keep hearing people say THB is "uninspired," "safe" or "weak," which I just don't get at all. Escape is probably the single most pushed mechanic in...

    Um... all of the escape cards are good at their respective power level- it's one of the most powerful mechanics in recent memory in my opinion. At the very least, I think your cube would be serviced by running at least Underworld Rage-Hound and Phoenix of Ash. Voracious Typhon is also just a...
