anotak: said card has already been printed (and mentioned in James's OP!) since White aggro just murders everyone in my Cube every time (with everything from a single splash to 2-3 other colors), i'm not sure why it reportedly sucks in most other Cubes (to the point of the awkward rebel...

the mind-blowing thing is that Lin Sivvi was _not_ designed with that in mind but yeah the implications for eternal formats are 100% negative with the possible exception of JTMS on JTMS

in Cube it's harmless enough, I think however, i can think of nobody that prefers 2 jittes or lilies on board to 0. in standard and modern geist wars will be even dumber. where are these mythical people that like this change? they're as elusive as "those who dislike too much fixing in Limited"...

How horrendous is the new Legend rule?

oops, i think 2 were watery graves // http://cubetutor.com/viewcube/114

Yeah but one must admit that the Xathrid Necromancer is sweet, well, kind of, I mean ... I think I attribute Humans being boring compared to Elves or Goblins to NWO

0-2 back in time for the soccer game. GL indeed!

Tribal cards are designed with Constructed, and to a lesser extent traditional Limited, in mind. They just don't translate well to cube Drafting tribes in conventional Limited is similarly unsatisfying IMO

mmmmmmmm ob nixilis.

River Kelpie is super-sweet, but be wary of including too many high-CMC cards that just draw cards and otherwise durdle

Jason -- yeah, the Zombie thing is much more interesting mechanically, though maybe this is because I'm just lazy with Humans. on the other hand, there's just not much to be done? (check it -- http://magiccards.info/query?q=o%3Ahuman&v=card&s=cname ). Angel of Glory's Rise I guess? But nah no way

the other day i watched the finals of a legacy tournament for a mox. they decided to split and ripped it in half

you can just toss in champ and mayor into most aggro decks, they're good creatures with some upside for being 'on-theme' i wouldn't consider running midnight haunting ever given my "lower the curve" initiative, doomed traveler is just pretty good though. the whole point of human tribal is that...

CIPT Rainbow is pretty strong, isn't it?

i dunno, you could do worse than Seat of the Synod in utility land draft. pretty tame interactions here (trinket mage as borderland ranger; thirst for knowledge as instant-speed win, etc)

humans

yeah but every other deck wants those kinds of cards too. my deck would have been somewhat better with a siege-gang but i had to pick a bunch of lands so i didn't die to my manabase (though i ended up killing myself with it instead). so the main problem is that i had to jump ship from U after...

Going forward I dunno if I want to include the Pods, 3 did seem like the right number and the effect seemed fun and fair but god was it hard to draft it well enough to have constructive pod chains. X-1 Ones 1 Enclave Cryptologist 1 Mystical Tutor 1 Portent 1 Vampiric Tutor Twos 1 Oona's...
