    I am very surprised no one has mentioned Improbable Alliance: This reminds me of Bitterblossom. Sure, it doesn't always make a faerie on every upkeep, but it can be combined with looters to great effect. You can also get a Faerie on your opponent's turn- the card doesn't specify that the second...

    Because in the Ixalan case wizards could push the cards more if they were legends. Since they technically occupy a spell slot instead of a land slot, the Ixalan flip lands wouldn't have been putting stress on the mana base as legends. Drawing a second Search for Azcanta doesn't stop you from...

    I haven't seen bessie here mentioned at all. I feel like she's a bit too cute to try, but I was curious about your opinions on her...

    Yes, I will be blocking that Goblin Chainwhirler, no, you can't do anything about it. Pretty much the only thing I don't like about this guy is the actual wishboarding mechanic. If I were to run this, it would be for discarding decks to gain some more legs, not to give control decks access to...

    I want to curve this into Drake Haven into activating this thing's ability into making 2 drakes. The ability to grab sideboard tech is just gravy!

    I'm on Safari and I've never had any issues with it. That's relatively disappointing.

    Because the ten on Ixalan start as Legendary Enchantments. They're not a part of your land base so much as they are just spells. In that case, making them legendary wouldn't have had an inverse effect on gameplay. Since the castle lands are just regular lands, making them legendary would mean...

    I actually really like the Giant!! I'm probably going to test him if I open him, although he seems like the sort of card the Standard Players and Commander Timmies are gonna spike.

    Not unless your power level is essentially powermax. I'd say Vivien's Arkbow is a more fair equivalent.

    I think this format is going to turn out amazingly well if you curate it correctly. I'd just recommend keeping the density of 1 mana 2/1s to a minimum outside of colors you want to push for aggro. The smoothing in this format is going to be great, so most decks are going to have an easy time...

    These two cards seem super cool, but not very playable: This card might actually be good as a 2-mana "destroy target attacking creature. You gain three life" effect on a stick. It seems very good with a bunch of knights! This is so cool! I love reanimation, and I think the fact that...

    It would probably involve something like 30 fetchlands and 20 typed duals. You skew towards fetches so that people have to pick their colors a little more wisely. I think that its better when trying to facilitate more colors to include more fixing instead of weirder fixing- the filter lands just...

    But are any of the CCC cards worth playing outside of a monocolor deck anyway? Also, the blue wizard noble guy is probably fine in most cubes anyway. It's Blue Sun's Zenith on legs!

    I think super-ramp is cool too, but it shouldn't be all that green gets to do like in most power cubes. My G/U archetype is actually Untapping Enchanted Lands!

    Yeah but your cube is also very unique compared to most other lists. Your power level is a little bit lower than most rare cubes so your green decks don't necessarily need 1cmc ramp to be competitive. You also seem to have a fairly aggressive green suite, which naturally means that a larger...

    Demonic Tutor is almost always a fair card with my drafters because the best thing they ever seem to want to grab is Cemetery Reaper. I love having a younger playgroup :p.

    Yeah but green is so much worse when it doesn't have access to 1 CC ramp. Remember when people were playing green outside of energy in standard after Elvish Mystic rotated out and before Llanowar Elves rotated back in? Me neither...

    Goblin Piker as Savannah Lions. Liliana of the Veil as Hymn to Tourach. Druid of the Cowl as Llanowar Elves. Force of Negation as {U}{U} Negate. Literally everything with morph as Grizzly Bears.
