I would much, much rather reduce pack size and draft more. Something like 4x12 should do the trick or 4x13 if, like Chan, you hate composite numbers

I am a fan of the Wayfinder I'm gonna try this. Not a great haul, "socks for Christmas" more or less satyr wayfinder satyr firedancer courser of kruphix spirit of the labyrinth brimaz, king of oreskos spiteful returned herald of torment drown in sorrow searing blood ephara mogis xenagos some...

not that you didn't already know this, but i hate the notion that everything should be completely "balanced" and that tracking deck records etc. is objective proof of one thing or the other. i hate hiding bad design behind a veneer of meaningless numbers. but i love the idea that numbers can...

I disagree, there's a lot you can do with the Hawks. You can shuffle and equip and tuck and durdle and talk shit to SF people. Today AK was disliked by a Wizards employee who came by, I think he just cantripped into 'em and drew his deck, though he did lose a game to my dad and not enjoy the...

Hey doodz, So with CT becoming more of a thing, we have access to a great deal of quantitative data about our Cubes, some of which is useful for making design choices. Games start too slowly? Add in more 1-drops. Colors grossly imbalanced? Check your number of spells in Red. Anyone who...

awesome. me too. i will try it (obviously) it's a spectacularly broken card but i was never really inclined to add gush anyway

360 is probably ideal, though with money-drafts being almost always six people, I wonder if 270 is a but I know (aside from the rare practical difficulties that arise from only supporting 8 people) I'd be losing some of my design space by paring down from 450 to 360, there simply wouldn't be...

oh come on, Fastbond?

The vast majority of green decks always have and always will want some form of acceleration, and those cards are underrepresented in those decks in Cube vs. constructed analogues

someday mizz mortars will go to the dome ... your dome

well, nearly all of those decks are infinity times better with little green dudes that tap for mana. they are in high demand everywhere but from time to time you see a deck with a bunch of them and A of Z or woodfall primus come up, right?

you're blowing it way out of proportion mah ofay. bob sucks in every cube that isn't made on this site, it's fine once i ran into this guy who came to an LGS for an old-school draft, eventually i realized he was in town for the PT, which he had t8ed, and i told him that 'blue tempo could be...

dom -- ? manadorks are always really high picks wadds -- just to be sure, 3x of each a single sleeve in the funsies draft?

Aight. Sorry for getting all bitchy last night. I just like doubling up on Scooze and Deathrite and Blood Artist then, as I was looking for an excuse to add that other Vampire (even if Vampires itself was just lamer than Zombies). Maybe a couple Pridemates, WW costs are kinda piling up over here

Yeah the WW deck in standard is infamously low-margin and tough around the combat step. I gotta say that something like "Battalion" is NWO design at its very best.

weird, this never happened to me. but one should never underestimate the ineptitude of a site trying to make a profit off a game deliberately designed to make it hard to impossible ...

granularity as a design constraint (what if goyf was a -.5+*/.5+* or cost 1.5+G?) is super-interesting and i wish someone would write about it

awesome, i'm trying this next time. how does this work practically, 3 cloudposts in a single sleeve and 3 glimmerposts too? is this the right number of them? should i be pushing more artifacts like Oblivion Stone or whatever? more land tutor? etc. as for "mass removal in cube ramp," i've been...
