    Afternoon Delight: Constrained CMCs

    While I find the cube's layout adorable, I'm not sure having exactly equal CMCs across colors makes sense. Certain colors and decks will lend themselves to different needs. I'm a huge fan of Ultimatums, but their power levels vary wildly. I don't personally like the mana base, but that could...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Related design idea: All cards from the same block/plane except for 1 card from each set. Like a Ravnican Museum, or something. My worry is that 1 card from each set isn't actually going to come across during a draft. It's likely going to feel like a normal draft but with some weird old cards...

    The solution to a lot of what Zoss correctly identifies as problems would be to make sure none of your humans are that good. That may defeat the purpose and probably isn't worth warping your format over.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Whispers looks alright, but I think there's plenty better picks from 5DN. Misinformation looks savage if you have fetch-like lands around. Beacon's solid in a lower-mid power level. Works with Doomsday, if you need a card from whatever old ass set it premiered in. Ball Lightning is really cool...

    That's the fun of it! You're not considering the number of things that kick or flashback or whatever. It's not like you're only able to pay 2, 3, 2+2, 2+3 on those turns. That said, my playgroup is probably better off without a cube where half the cards have an additional paragraph of text to...

    I like Tusker over Sandwurm. I get a little jealous you're designing this. :p Looks fun. Might mess with other CMCs once I settle what I've got going currently.

    I suspect you crashed the host of the image, as there's a broken image still there... ravnic, you could shift black's removal to -X/-X to circumvent the 1 indestructible toughness a bit if you wanted. Definitely a cool 1/1. Don't think I'll end up using it, but I do like it.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It's a MONO white Phyrexian Arena that costs an extra mana and can never draw you a nonland card. It might as well cost like 1WWW to get maximum effect. It's NOT an aggro curve topper, which is what you asked about. You don't really want the game to still be going on turn 8-10, after this has...

    ETB, make no impact on the game. After your fourth upkeep, you've earned an unplayable Shard Convergence that only works in mono white. Gonna be a a lot better off playing a threat than that. A 4/4 or something is gonna get a lot more mileage than making your draws 40% better in exchange for...

    A thread would naturally transition from speculation to official spoilers to "I'm including this" as time went on. I don't see the issue with one. I do, however, see the issue of me not even knowing there was another thread and I guess I posted in the wrong one? I put it in spoilers because I...

    I didn't even realize there was another thread. Gets confusing when there's 3 threads for every set. The cards are pretty sus, but, who knows.

    Conversely, if you're not giving them ETB triggers, you're tempoing up to 15 mana on curve.
