    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    That's kind of what I was figuring but I never see anyone use them, so I wasn't sure. Might give 'em a try.

    scute mob dragonmaster outcast I have nothing to reference these against for their power level. Anyone have any info? Definitely like the idea of low CMC, high lands payoff.

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    Does the new set tempt you to run ~40 Wilds again?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I'd imagine it loses a lot from not having all the synergies it gets in constructed, but it's definitely interesting to replay in your style of a landfall deck. I guess you'd have to look at your spells and decide how many of them you're excited to get back. Can make a lock with... That one...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I'd think you would require some serious morph interactions in the environment.

    Their value may also increase if the pandemic ends in America before they rotate out of standard.

    I got as specific as you did lol. I'm glad to hear you plan to be running quite a few. Tons of these are great as long as your power level doesn't demand speed.

    You're trying to compare cards that are only ever lands and can never fix your opener in a meaningful way to some of the most flexible cards ever printed. This comparison is entirely off the mark in my opinion and completely misses the significance of these DFCs. Waiting until mid-late game to...

    I think the Force Spike and kind-of-Impulse are really good in land-hungry blue control decks. The viability for these definitely gets narrower as the power level goes up and Elephant is, as I said, the all star of the crew. This is probably true, but my bigger concern is that my power level is...

    I think you're right for the blue Wizard. The black Rogue and red Minotaur I'm skeptical of, as the black card is much smaller and fewer red decks are desperate for lands. I'll make an edit to the blue one. Most new sets give me a lot to think about but this one really has me wanting to run 15...

    Shitty Murder. 4 mana instant speed removal is going to be sufficient in a lot of scenarios and it's going to save you from some mulligans. Run it unless you're super streamlined. Blegh. I could go into the Human interactions or the Rogue interactions or the Menace deck from IKO or how mill...

    Whole post ended up lenghtier than I had planned, so apologies to anyone who doesn't like to read. Mythics For all of the mythic Spell/Lands I think they're generally this weird, underwhelming late game play BUT they're significantly better than a topdeck land would have been. They're going...

    Like this post if you want me to do a small review of the Spell/Lands tomorrow, as I think they're the coolest thing to come out of this set. It'll take a while to write up, so I'll keep it in my head if not.

    I definitely throw up a little when I see cards like that. I'm confident you can find me bitching about it in the spoiler thread. And if I didn't, it was to save people the rant. I refused to speak the name of that GU Jellyfish in the ZNR thread because it's disgusting. There's such a huge...

    I love when I see low powered cards together. That looks so fantastically fun. Then I go to make my own low power format and I'm like "Mannn these cards suck ass." I can never move past the feeling that each individual card is too weak to keep people's attention. I'm sure you've seen the card...

    Colorless 4/4 for 4 or lot/lot for 7. Solid way to up the artifact count if a 4/4 for 4 cuts it in your environment. Also a pretty cool art, conceptually.

    As an X/X for X, that GU guy probably doesn't need a ridiculous amount of kicker to be relevant in mid power cubes. You can really easily add kicker cards to your environment because they're legitimately useful anyways and the payoff is significant. GU ramp is totally a viable deck and I've...

    That's an entire grocery list to end up with a maybe... I'm not sold, but the card's cool. IN THIS SET! Holt shit that looks good. What program did you use?
