    General [Lucky Paper] - The First Four Questions Cube Designers Should Ask

    Who will you play your cube with? My girlfriend and a semi regular group of potentially up to 9 other people (usually we draft with 2-6 people) How experienced is your average player? 2 are enfranchised and experienced, the rest mostly newbies/irregular players How will the cube be drafted and...

    How many creatures are too many? Blue is the only color in my cube where creatures make up less than 50 percent of the color's section (49%). White, black and red are around 60 to 61% (not counting token making spells, which would bring red and white to something around 68%. Green is the...

    General Average Words Per Card

    I must be pretty low with my Casual Champions Cube. I don't run planeswalkers, don't run double faced cards, and I have a faible for ckean and simple designs anyway. Also, we shouldn't forget, that cards can have only a short, single ability and be still pretty skill intensive. On the other...

    General [ZNR] Zendikar Rising Spoilers

    That sounds like a slam dunk. Can you give me a source for this? I haven't seen it among the leaks. Edit: Just found it. Her name is Aesi and I love her.

    Okay, I also got something: I am looking for red cards, that in some way reward you for having/attacking with a multiole creatures, and I'd love something more interesting than Trumpet Blast.

    Oh yeah, Vel, Do or Die is a similarly great card. It is also of the rare cards that you always main deck, but they get better when you're behind. It is a dud against a single creature, an edict against one and gets better and better the more dominant the opposing board is. It's also an edict...

    It is sweet in every white creature deck, sometimes even in the very aggressive ones, but can really be a sweet buildaround if you add some selfmill, creatures that sac themselves or have a tendecy to die, even better with EtB/die triggers (like the splicers). Sorry for double posting, I have a...

    General [CMR] Commander Legends Previews

    I love A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones, but sadly the series downfall already started in season 5, when they first tried to tell stories further than the books did so far. Season 7 was bad and 8 was just a total trainwreck, like half of the fanbase could've written it better.

    I'd love a GoT Crossover like they did with Godzilla. Maybe for the next conspiracy set or eldraine 2?

    I loooove Eldraine for flavor and mechanics. Had so many hits for my cube. Anyways, I was wondering if there are any colorless buildarounds on single-card-archetype-level like Drake Haven, Demonic Pact or Wildfire? Doesn't need to be super powerful (Isochrone Scepter is out) , just fun and not...

    May I ask why the size/number of rows/columns is so important for you, Velrun?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Yeah, but like FTK, Chupacabra is something many cube managers avoid, as they agree with my man patrick here: I perdonally decided, thatvan effect that strong, should be a reward, not something that you can just use in every deck/situation. I am similarly happy about this guy Warfire Javelineer

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Outrage Shaman This card I had not heard of before, yet it seems rather strong. It is no FTK, but FTK is busted and too strong for my cube. This guy however fits perfectly for the subtle mono color theme I'm trying to etablish. It's also a Goblin the one relevant creature type next to ninja in...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Has anyone seen this legend do its thing in cube? Do you think he would be too much for a lower powered environment? Masticore Its activated abilities read scary, but his drawback is, well, certainly a drawback.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I like Scramble and Informer. The former looks like a really juicy card to try and build around, but more like a one off for some crazy decks once in a while. The latter can be a really nice glue card for different archetypes. It mills your opponent ({U/B} Mill), mills yourself ({B/G} Dredge)...

    Which of these is more fun/has more play to it? Raise the Alarm Gather the Townsfolk Flash or Fateful Hour? Both creature types are irrelevant in my cube.

    I think the biggest difference is that lifegain is already a useful thing for many decks (mostly slower ones), where being a Goblin is not a useful trait without any payoffs. On the other hand you make lifegain cards even more flexible, since even aggressive lifegain related decks will want...
