Foolish man that I was forgot to seed it, so no

Now two drafts in with the artifacts theme, and its been incredibly well recieved. However there are still problems :p Retrofitter Foundry I love this card, it really scratches the same itch birthing pod did with this cute little minigame, and it's a mana sink which we all love. But why god...

Dominance on cheap cards is a cool idea because having the only creature in play is a decent possibility, but also your opponent might just have a savannah lions to your llanowar elves. Plus I've got a soft spot for cheap cards like this that create fewer nongames. Speaking of ways to create...

And now, to interrupt your regularly scheduled programming: Glacia This set was likely a bit too powerful on the numbers side, but there's some interesting ideas here: Fabled is basically Kicker: Transform, but it works surprisingly well. Spells -> Enchantments leads to some cool narrative...

Oh the red version is cool!

Bouncing 4 of your own permanents is a big ask though. I think if I want a 6 mana sweeper like this, considering it's implications as a ramp spell, especially in a format as fast as mine, probably not actually going to move the needle at all :P And yeah upheval is too much :P

Thinking more about flood of tears, mini fight club: vs Rivers Rebuke vs Cyclonic Rift I was initially excited for flood, but I've never really been happier with the other two, and making it weaker doesn't really fix that.

I'm testing gem tonight, if it's too good I'll let you know

Yeah who knew FoF was part of a ...cycle? Whatever this is. there's no green one! :P Bend or Break Fact or Fiction Death or Glory Do or Die Fight or Flight Stand or Fall

Yes, but your command zone is an extension of your hand, where your graveyard isn't. Hell, a ton of mechanics and sets exist to emulate that connection :P

Okay thats a sweet art for sun gem, I might steal that idea now :D Why doens't graveyard ninjitsu sacrifice the creature though? Edit: you have clearly chosen the wrong art for sun gem: :P

Stick David Bowie stickers on the sleeves for eratta! (Rebel Rebel)

It's the internet man, you can swear if you want to :)

I definitely do :P

This probably depends on the speed of the cube. If it's fast enough that no regular midrange deck is ever hitting 8 mana without investment, then they might be poisonous. If games are ending on turns 5-6, it's narrow because the only way it's hitting play is with heavy ramp or heavy control...

It's good people should read it :D

It is time to retire Aristocrats. Sad to see something that's been part of my cube since day 1 leave, but it's been a tough nut to crack. As my format gets more and more fair over time, the endless supply of 2/1s offered by black is becoming a real issue for the rest of the archetypes...

Okay, now time to make fun of things: Why is this so defensive? You already have a toughness matters aspect on the card, but this doesn't work on blocking creatures like similar effects? As a designer, you really need to encourage players to attack, not lean into the reticence newer players...

Apparently every designer contributing loves Raised by Wolves, because I've seen multiple nods to it :p I've always kinda wanted a more beefy green 6, and this works way better than a 6 drop that dies to pyroclasm ought to. This is a sweet little minigame. I like that it's on a creature, but...

Next up: Aftermath This one's a bit more like ice ace, both in theme and power level. A lot of the cards here seem deliberatly make weaker, with the usual exploitable angles patched out. An interesting idea. But again, the coolest thing you could do with this isn't allowed. Maybe that's for the...
