    General Fight Club

    I'm not a fan of Loxodon Warhammer either. I mean, it is slow, but once it gets going, it feels so unbeatable. Anything turns into a clock and a huge life buffer. Racing is not an option, and because of the trample you often can't even effectively block.

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Someone wanted me to include that card because "it is a cool way to cast Cruel Ultimatum!" And I was like, but... things like Crystal Shard and sac outlets exist... (if you sac Arcane Savant in response to the trigger you can get it back with the raise dead part of Cruel).

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I still get a bit sad whenever I'm browsing old threads for some inspiration and come across one of his posts. Rest in peace :(

    Fair :D I did proxy fetchlands for a while in my cube because they were so expensive, but eventually bought real ones when they were reprinted in one of the Modern Masters sets!

    Watched it! Still not my cup of tea, but the tidbit about worker's rights was interesting :)

    I can't speak for others, but I think the original test cards look like shit. I like them for what they are, a fun, little experiment, but I skipped acquiring any because of their aesthetics. I would consider putting into my cube this version of Frogkin Kidnapper, though, since it looks so much...

    General Guaranteed Power - a real 'Vintage' Cube

    I was leaning the other way, since splashing with basic lands (which is essentially the fixing power of Moxen) is quite bad. Bear with me, obviously you run all five Moxen, and you run them instead of lands (unlike, say, Mox Diamond, which counts as a spell). That means you have 11-12 lands...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I think Merchant of the Vale is likely better, and Dismissive Pyromancer might be. It does have an activation cost, but it comes online a turn earlier and doubles as a removal spell.

    General [ZNR] Zendikar Rising Spoilers

    This is a rare, I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you. Usually, cycles don't include 6 lands (though of course there are a very small number of exceptions).

    Helm and Glare are nasty in a token deck like this!

    General Zendikar Rising - Magic Panel

    Is that a hedron floating just out of frame in the middle of the art?

    General Making broken cards fair

    I tried Glare of Subdual in my cube once, and it was still miserable. I have fond memories of my Squirrel Opposition deck (featuring Static Orb), but I don't like its effect on lower power cubes.

    General Fight Club

    Oh I don't know about that, I drew heavy inspiration from an existing cube ( https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/5d8416b5bc8ca26a572982f0]link[/url]), which in turn was inspired by two articles (linked on their overview). As they say, I stand on the shoulders of giants :) That doesn't mean...

    General Blue cantrips or "Why not run a billion Brainstorms?"

    I used to run a lot of one mana black discard spells (Thoughtseize, Inquisition of Kozilek, etc.), but over the years I've accepted grillo's wise words, and replacing them with 2 cmc alternatives has worked out great. Since draw and discard are two sides of the same coin, I wondered if good 1...

    Don't forget that you can cross out mana symbols as well :)

    General Fight Club

    Haha, cool suggestions, but honestly, I chose the proxy alterations to be low maintenance / easy to apply. Putting all the art through a filter means extra work, especially if you want to do a palette swap instead of an "easy" filter. I've been doing some Google searches, and palette swapping...
