oh god there are always TONS of five-drops you can run in your cube, just because mono-black is sparse on them (and it is) doesn't mean the Merch doesn't need to justify his slot over Underworld Cerberus or Havengul Lich or Obzedat, Ghost Council or whatever. IMO the merch begins to be...

violoncello yeah i'll probably be in seattle if not in ljub or somewhere. i hear eastern europe is where it's at these days.

"MBC is a thing now though, Mike Flores was right all along" Seriously though, the latest development (and design?) teams have done a shit job of balancing colors for Limited, I'm doing a Modo III draft right now (having phantom RGD drafts -- not DGR, RGD -- would be a good way of apologizing...

wadds surely sinkhole is cooler than nether traitor

anyone go for the classic Sinkhole?

when we critique formats for staleness of gameplay we always come back to "not enough activated abilities" or "sparseness of decision." so throw in some tutors and stuff with ":" in rules text and see what happens

this was drafted by our token black guy who always tries to brew Merchant decks that are light on permanents; i will therefore never tire of jokes like "Jamal, I question your devotion to black"

re. the whole "reward for extra" yeah i love stuff like Gatekeeper of Malakir but the development does not work well for Cube. BB for a 2/2 is terrible and BBB for an edict bear is insane but in the same way (albeit to a lesser extent) as Mind's Desire or whatever. my theory is that they've...

i don't mind having white do a little of everything. this means it matches well with every other color and has a lot of fun gold cards that people will fight over, but not too much.

Fans of mine (there are about 3?) will know of my contempt for the Modo-style mono-colored support feat. Cabal Coffers, Phyrexian Obliterator and other cards that nobody else would ever pick in a million years. They will also know of my love of Eventide, the best "set that was a commercial...

yes that is connoted by "Pure Tempo"

ah, but what about "decks that have 0-3'ed your cube" Ones 1 Spell Pierce 1 Ponder 1 Brainstorm 1 Thoughtseize Twos 1 Wall of Omens 1 Thalia 1 Remand 1 Hymn to Tourach 1 Counterspell 1 Baleful Strix Threes 1 Flickerwisp 1 Mentor of the Meek 1 Oblivion Ring 1 Frantic Search 1 Lingering Souls 1...

yes, yes it is :)

Believe me once I've cashed in on this book I'm gonna join you for bumming around Europe for a few years. Ever been to Ljubljana? This deck is so sweet I had to post it here http://cubetutor.com/cubedeck/50648 is this not proof of riptide's genius?

trying to brainstorm a small "mono-white" reward since there are really no devotion cards, anyone given Shrine of Loyal Legions, White Sun's Zenith, Spectral Procession and/or Angel of Jubilation a whirl? one small thing i've been enjoying with the Devotion theme is that Eventide cards become...

out — 5, 2, 2.5, 1.5, 3 (18) temporal isolation, sunlance, suture priest, nearheath pilgrim, hallowed burial, gifts ungiven, grave titan, curse of shallow graves, rancor, veteran explorer, garruk PH, primeval titan, avatar of discord, orcish lumberjack, diregraf captain, psychatog, sin...

it is with much depression that i announce rancor is getting cut. goodbye my childhood. (mother of runes lives on, womb-like) the devotion stuff was a hit for Jund colors. i think i wanna toss in a little more explicit Blue support, not sure what that would be. i guess ill try patched-up M. of...

YOU ARE EXCUSED STEVENSON. i actually like the Trostani idea but I don't think the bad girl needs explicit support. i am hard at work on the novella, so hard at work that i'm blowing off tutoring emails and responding to a call for a job at wizards (that i have no intention of doing for more...

i like the Staff and Bounty suggestions a lot (Staff is Vintage-playable!)

if you hardcast that puppy that's two iterations of "GG" right there which afaik is a match win
