    General Fight Club

    I'm having a hard time choosing between these, but I'm guessing the front side of Djeru's Renunciation is by far the most useful effect in the same decks you want to play the aggressive RW cycling cards from Ikoria in. On the other hand, if all you're looking for is a card to cycle away cheaply...

    General Fight Club

    What themes are you supporting? :) Quasi is good in discard matters, Part is better in blue based flash decks. Do you expect this slot to end up in decks that get to seven mana? If they don't, Part might as well not have flashback.

    Oh, nice, including Nameless Inversion and Crib Swap is pretty clever here!

    General How to execute a minimalist Artifact theme

    There's big daddy construct, which I'm willing to give another try now that it's a bit harder to cheat it out in my cube: Myr Battlesphere Other good options: Scrapheap Scrounger Steel Overseer Chief of the Foundry Treasure Keeper Stuffy Doll

    General How to execute a minimalist Artifact theme

    I think I got there :D Here's two decks from testing my most recent cube updates. I added Scapyard Recombiner for some additional artifact tricks, and so far I'm not disappointed. Ones 1 Gingerbrute 1 Hope of Ghirapur 1 Vault Skirge Twos 1 Brain Maggot 1 Kitesail Freebooter 1 Walking...

    General Fight Club

    I originally settled on Arena over Connections when I first added the effect. I like that you can't shut off Arena, so sometimes you will be forced to use your own removal on it, or die if you can't. Connection might still be right over it, because it offers more decision points, but the...

    General Fight Club

    That much I figured out, that's why I'm asking :oops: I guess Arguel's Blood Fast can lead to more interesting games. Phyrexian Arena is very good, but also pretty... generic.

    General Fight Club

    Phyrexian Arena Arguel's Blood Fast Which of these two is more interesting? I run Zur the Enchanter and a minor historic theme in white in my cube, but almost no land destruction. PS I know about Underworld Connections, that's not the card I'm looking for.

    General "Lower-Powered" Pivot Cards

    Thanks for suggesting this one. It somehow escaped my radar. In the second game I playtested it, the only flyer my opponent had out was a Stormwild Capridor (which I added to have more synergy in white for Wildfire and Pyrohemia). It fit really well into the {g/u} self-mill shell I had drafted...

    Sets [2XM] Double Masters Spoilers- The Set That Makes Me Cry Tears Of Salt

    Oh whelp, Commander Masters confirmed then! As for From the Vault, I dislike foils. My preference goes nonfoil new border > nonfoil 8e border >> nonfoil old border > nonfoil alternate borders that are close to normal (Time Spiral timeshifted, Planar Chaos colorshifted) >> foils (in the same...

    Sets [2XM] Double Masters Spoilers- The Set That Makes Me Cry Tears Of Salt

    Well, they want to lure all kinds of players into buying the Masters sets, so of course there are going to be Commander staples in there. Let's just wait and see what else they will reprint. Any of Deftblade Elite, Pianna, Nomad Captain, Waterfront Bouncer, Complicate, Compulsion, Probe...

    General Companions, Yay or nay?

    I bet they're testing out potential rules changes to the companion mechanic like crazy right now, so they're no longer effectively an 8th card.

    The Wheel of Change

    So, after receiving some of my Ikoria cards yesterday, I noticed I forgot to test one particular card. General's Enforcer I don't support tribal humans anymore, but there are a lot of incidental human legendaries, and those legendaries really benefit from being indestructible. There's this...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I think Stampede Driver is better in general, mostly because it's a one drop, which is a lot better than a two mana 1/1.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Well, ackchyually... (ugh... sorry, I'm :rolleyes: at myself right now ;)) According to MaRo's most recent in-depth article about the color pie from 2017, white in fact does have tertiary access to counterspells. I admit it's from a while ago (and I'ld love for him to do an update), but it's...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Thanks! Yeah, I'm of the opinion that Magic needs more of Mana Tithe and Lapse of Certainty. Conditional counterspells that exist as an extension of taxing effects and temporary removal that are already part of white's color pie. Blue doesn't need to hog all the counterspells!

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Today I wondered, what would happen if you put Mana Tithe on an adventure card? Immediate consensus on the MTG Cube Brainstorming Discord was I created a broken card, but going back and forth a bit led to this beauty :)
