    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    the main flaw is that the deck cube has an AEther Vial. Building a strong BWx deck is really tough due to a concentration of 3's, we're still trying to figure out how to make a good GWB deck in my Cube. I think it's tied to the awkward curve of 2's and 3's and a color-intensiveness that...

    I had trouble finding enough support for the super-powerful Trinket Mage, restrictive tutoring is really fun in Cube because it's not as good as it is in Constructed (see: Birthing Pod, Green Sun's Zenith, maybe even Zur the Enchanter, etc.) but you really have to push this particular one...

    I tried Crab and it didn't work (though maybe this is due to lack of trying, but it was in at least a dozen drafts). The others aren't worth trying IMO

    Bob decks are masters of brinksmanship. Yeah, WW is fairly restrictive but I don't think it's quite as restrictive as a two-color 2-drop. DO YOU YIELD?

    What is the dumb little doodad below the "F" proper on Wall of Fire!?! LOOK OUT HELVETICA THERE'S A NEW SERIF IN TOWN p.s. when I downloaded the cardname font for my machine, it was called "magic: the gathering." i guess it wasn't proprietary, though, wtf

    yeah, if the deck is UW this is clearly true. but the "any white deck can cast it / only UW can" factor clearly outweighs that. I WILL OUT PEDANT YOU SIR!!

    Card/Deck Oldies

    Out of boredom and drunkenness last night I browsed through some Vintage-ass sets. When it became clear this was a huge waste of time, I endeavored to winnow the chaff by instead viewing the sets in descending order of TCG Low Prices. Here is what I turned up (some of these are only for the...

    Yeah, but then they just do it again and you've held up your goofy counter instead of curving out. Or am I just wrong

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    Errrr ok I should explain because nobody here devotes their lives to the poor choices I make here. I'm going down to 1 Snapcaster and 2 Gravecrawlers and the Zeppelid is Kiora, Who Isn't Good. I'm gonna throw in Vault of Whispers and Seat of the Synod for Tezz, the funsies land draft is pretty...

    I like WW a lot and have trouble imagining a Cube / Standard matchup where I'd wanna bring in something like Lapse instead of just, you know, killing them

    [Design/Construction] Lets build the Scuttlemutt Cube!

    Hacko Wacko Jacko. You really gotta play Knight of the Reliquary. Look, if we're gonna go gold let's go gold. How about some Rhox War Monks, Sprouting Thrinaxes? Some nice hybrids from SHM/EVE? Sedraxis Specter? Maelstrom Archangel?

    Card/Deck Tezzeret (either one) and making them work in cube

    thanks dom, super-helpful. so i tried to do a search for rules text of "artifact" in someone else's more artifacty cube, but I couldn't figure out how to do so on CubeTutor (or anywhere else) without being the Cube's "curator." in the classic CS problem of "is it worth it to figure this out,"...

    Card/Deck Counterspells

    the average consumer of MTG is an idiot. you don't need this to be true for your cube! though to be fair i used to think the same way, until i played with and against the standard mono-black deck. i do not know why some of my friends pissed away an entire day playing that bloody stool of a...
