    Another option could be Retreat to Emeria. My favorite is Sacred Mesa though. It can win games on it's own and gives death triggers.

    General New Format: Pioneer

    What exactly is their reasoning behind starting with RtR? It seems kinda random, but I bet they put some thoughts in it. I expected Pioneer to be something like the official Frontier, or just a larger standard/better extended. Well, I'm not going to play it anyway :p

    I'd also go with the Ritual, because it triggers on opponents creatures. Therefore it might be less explosive for sacrifice combo-isn decks, but more flexible as it's still playable in more controlling decks.

    What would you say, how many draw effects does a deck need to make this card worthy of the word "build around"? Because I don't think relying on it's own activated ability is a clever strategy :D

    I ended up adding two more cards, which makes this set extremely good for my cube with 6 additions so far. The Prince is basically a more flexible Lone Missionary, and all three modes fit my cube. I also now like his flavor, since I got the joke with "charm" hehe. The Faerie got in since I...

    I think there are 2 kinds of mill cards that belong in cubes. 1) Cards that just happen to mill, but are good anyway like Sewer Nemesis or Patient Rebuilding. 2) Cards that can win the game via mill on their own like Nephalia Drownyard or Patient Rebuilding. And beyond that, you could add a...

    This card is so stupid. Don't do it.

    Drafting Peter's ... P1P1 Grafted Wargear. That card's a beating. Started with some white aggro playables, but then I went into black and got no white any more. Midnight Reaper and Braids gave me an Aristocrats angle in pack 2. i was pondering between mono black and Rakdos. But then in pack 3...

    I wanna make a stand for Mentor here. It's ceiling is much higher than Bishops and I think he's better in midrange. I prefer it mainly because it works with two things that are really big in my and many other white sections: Tokens and Blink. Repeatable token producers like Sacred...

    I actually really like this little lady too, but she's also in a weird spot somehow. I don't really find a creature to cut for her, and I'm also not sure I wanna increase the amount of counter magic in my cube. But on the other hand, cutting something like Exclude feels not quite right as well...

    I'm adding these 4 cards for sure: I've been very happy with Goldmeadow Harrier, but this card just seems to be more interesting with more possible decussions and a cooler frame - all without really raising the powerlevel. I hope the ramp part is not so weak that people don't play it...

    I wouldn't call them narrow. Like, 90% of the white decks in my meta are creature decks and while not a super high priority for all, these decks would all like to pick up and play them. Aggro and tokens even love them. And to the other point, I agree with you, that narrowness is more often a...

    Combine it with manlands. And landfall. And if you're mean enough, this card: Standstill

    I think wizards should redesign their regular frame. Italics so weird and ugly now because they tried to adapt the former one instead of creating something new. They could easily come up with a frame that's just as functional as the current one but also looks and feels more like fantasy and...

    These are the other three. I'm als thinking over the artifact destroying adventure guy. And there are more adventures I'd love to add just for their beautiful frame and artwork

    It will in my cube for sure. Madness and spells matter will fight over it I suppose. That makes 4 cards already I'll ad from this set pretty confidently, that's a high number. We will get full spoiler today right?

    Thanks for all the answers guys, we're going to test Benalish Marshal! I had him the cube once and I was pretty disappointed. Maybe it wasn't the right environment, but we run the classic Glorious Anthem and he just was that effect for one more mana and much easier to remove. It just felt bad...
