    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    city is all kinds of sweet, the drawback ends up being pretty relevant as the games can go quite long and be very marginal. i'm surprised you think it's too good since its power level is far lower than that of a fetch or dual. it's hard for me to imagine grand coliseum being impressive alongside...

    Article [M14] Lifebane Zombie

    it's obviously a strong card that will be enormous in standard if not also elsewhere. since i hate protection, this might be the kind of mild color-hosing effect i'm looking for (though realistically it's not that mild. this card is nuts) worth a try i think that merfolk is also bonkers...

    my GB section: Deathrite Shaman Deathrite Shaman Abrupt Decay Grisly Salvage Lotleth Troll Dreg Mangler Maelstrom Pulse Pernicious Deed Putrefy i dunno i like them bitchin' utility removal spells. all of these are kinda non-negotiable. adding in varolz is totally reasonable, it's a...

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    i woulda explained more last night but god was i tired! my bad. the AP lands were not great fun to play with. jason: which lands (aside from depths)? i switched these to the main cube since i feel they're worth a pick (simplification but you know): ruins, cradle, township, stronghold

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    revamped the section in mine. 1 pick after each pack (27/36). design philosophy: colorless lands come with a high opportunity cost, as do CIPT lands, so use sparingly -- basically multiple players misbuild with manabases larded with these kinds of lands each week and it's just a perverse...

    General It could happen in any number of formats

    i dunno jason, i disagree pretty strongly. the threshold for colorless lands is very high in constructed (junk rites in standard, which runs ~24 lands that are all duals, can get away with 1-2), and in cube where the mana is worse and the decks are smaller the same is true. that being said the...

    i had to move my birthday after-party from the gay yupster hood to the straight yupster hood. i hear it was great, not my scene unfortunately and there's little i can do about that. someone in our cube thread went, though, and you guys will LOVE this: [Redacted] Ugh I should not invite people...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    this thread is a black hole. soon i'm gonna start thinking wizards sucks at not only paying its advertisers (like LSV) and making a cube but also at designing THE CARDS THEMSELVES. and when that happens i dunno i might get a job or something. so whenever i think about custom cards i think...

    Sets [MCD] M14 previews

    koth is a hard hitter on par with red hero or hellrider who demands that they react vigorously or die while you're shoving mountains down their throat. chandra is a 4-mana phyrexian arena for retards

    Forum Aesthetics and Usability

    So I like it all, but the extra font options are a pain in the ass when I just wanna c&p a chunk of text from elsewhere and then it's in something other than the default. Maybe we could pare those down a bit more, NWO-style, and thereby achieve a more successful if not superior product I like...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    sygg is wonderful, just make sure you have a place for him. jason's cube with its zombardment seems ideal. mine with its blue and black durdles was not a great fit

    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    pain's reward is totally incredible! i love it a lot. but then nobody drafted it. it's always try-worthy i'm surprised there isn't much of an animus towards protection here, as it seems like the opposite of a fun sub-game to me (or i guess it turns the game into that subgame). river boa on the...
