oh man

the booze cube is brilliant! this is my favorite

the spells matter deck blows in my cube and i like the pyromancer suggestion ;[

yeah, when i was like 8. it's a sweet cycle though, the cards are strong even by modern standards erebos is very playable and is better turned-off than Nylea and Heliod

not always true, the best walker in any format right now is Legacy's Liliana (followed closely by Modern's ... Liliana, though Jace AoT is a great standard card right now; recall that nobody played walkers a year ago). they often need support just as often as other cards do.

hahah yeah i was gonna ask ...

mazel tov!

link please "balance'd" cube is another good term

most definitely. run it anyway, it's a lot of fun and contextually good i once tried tezzeret's gambit, but nobody wanted it, though it is abstractly a strong card. should i try again? edit: tezz's gambit is worthy of consideration before volt charge because 1. it's a colorless effect...

whoa dude be careful there that card is nuts as for land tokens, no, but nothing's stopping you from powering out another mutavault with Phantasmal Image

I like Geddon and Smokestack and Upheaval and some traditional griefer cards and would not be opposed to giving Winter Orb a try, though I would say that what keeps those cards fun is an aggressive environment, which may make Winter Orb a little much. I should give the MTGS lists a once-over...

i agree with most of this -- after all, this forum was birthed when someone decided typical cubes were in poor taste and that our subjectivity was something both to be recognized but also analyzed, and not used as an excuse to substitute whatever our fetishes are for the elusive moving target of...

nah, i limit enchantments because their marginal type limits the quality and density of the cards that interact with them, and i limit artifacts for that same reason and their colorless versatility making them difficult to balance. it's not so simple!

"I've learned over the years that if you try to make everyone happy on every card you end up with a boring game—one that no one hates but no one loves. The key to making a trading card game work is to make sure everyone loves something and not worry that they hate something else, except in the...
