    Sets [M21] M21 Previews!

    Baneslayer's not legendary, but I doubt she will see more play than Lyra.

    That art on Massacre Wurm is massive, by the way. RAWR!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    It all depends on your mana base. I remember Cloudthresher being played in Standard, with Cruel Ultimatum and Wrath of God in the same list :') When that list got refined though, the Cloudthresher was dropped for being too difficult on the mana...

    Sets [M21] M21 Previews!

    The aura reads a bit too strong for my liking. +3 power and evasion and recurring it is quite a beating.

    General M21 Madness

    Thirty-one different options matches the number of different color combinations exactly: 5 x monocolor, 10 x double, 10 x triple, 5 x quadruple, and 1 x all five colors.

    General Embrace the Chaos / Cube Occasionals

    japahn, you're an absolute madman, and I applaud you for coming up with something that looks both elegant and refreshing! While I haven't experienced draft fatigue in my own cube, in part because I can't draft it even once a month, I can definitely see how much of a blast occasionals can be...

    General Companions, Yay or nay?

    Really unelegant solution considering the reminder text, but I think there wasn't really a way around that without them still being broken. Mind you, starting the game with an 8th card that's a 3 mana tutor for a specific card (your chosen companion) still seems really, really good.

    General How to execute a minimalist Artifact theme

    japahn pretty much covered it! If you can suit it up with Bonesplitter, or upgrade it with Steel Overseer, one of the heros, or a battlecry creature, it can chip in for quite some damage, simply because it has evasion.

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Well, let's look at two hypothetical sets with five creatures at cmc < 5 each. Set 1: one 0/6, two 2/2's, and two 2/1's. Set 2: one 2/4, one 2/3, two 1/2's and a 2/1. Now, simply looking at the numbers, I would call set 1 an aggressive set. There is one big blocker, but it can't actually kill...

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Rise of the Eldrazi is a case study for this question. It's one of the best limited formats I've ever played, radically different from any other set, and WotC perfected the battlecruiser format there. Here's some of the principles that made it work. Ramp in many colors (thanks to the Eldrazi...

    General +1/+1 counters in 2020

    Back when I still ran {g}{w} as a color pair, I had to dial down the +1/+1 counters theme twice, because it was so snowbally. Hardened Scales and Elite Scaleguard were the biggest offenders for me, with the first just exploding your creatures out of "I can still deal with this"-range for your...

    Shards of WBGRU - A Khans style cube

    I use an old program called Magic Set Editor. The program doesn't do HD, so your pictures will be a bit grainy, but I've found that they are more than adequate for cutouts to put in front of a land. You'll need to download MSE and the templates separately...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    You're welcome :) Under Arrest got the attention of XRS as well, and I've posted two possible fixes for this card in his thread. Click here :) Note that Pawel Mielniczuk does not seem to be the artist for this piece. Instead I've seen it attributed to Bryan Sola on various sites. Paweł...

    Shards of WBGRU - A Khans style cube

    Under Arrest really needs some work. It's all one trigger, which means your opponent doesn't get to react in between the creation of and the check for Soldier tokens. Also, as far as I can tell, it's attributed to the wrong artist! I couldn't find the art on Bryan Sola's personal ArtStation...

    General Tap/untap Archetype

    If you want to go really deep, there's the inspire mechanic, the merfolk from Lorwyn/Shadowmoor block, and the untap symbol ('{ Q }' without spaces on Scryfall), e.g. King Macar, the Gold-Cursed Pain Seer Fallowsage Stonybrook Schoolmaster Hollowsage Wake Thrasher Merrow Reejerey Order of...
