    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    yeah but you have 4-ofs and stuff. it's a tough one to support. a lot of the fun in legacy comes from trying to guess what they have to have for their very specific plan then stripping it or their hiding it or not having it or maybe having multiples or screwing with you and then ladies and gents...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Cards that create Subgames!

    meh, i think therapy's the perfect card for a well-defined and somewhat slow-changing metagame as legacy. with all the one-ofs in vintage i expect it would be bad there as here. i initially skipped over your definition because sometimes i'm lazy. i think it is a great definition. here's a bit...

    jason: nope. in legacy GSZ spawned a new archetype or two. in EDH it's just a guy.

    General Ways to run an online cube draft

    its part of the quintessential idiocy of modo that they think proxies and free tournaments would reduce the amount of money they could make. Thea is friends with some wizards employees, who have access to 4x of each card on modo -- my best guess is that she was able to run these drafts with...

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    mystifying maze is pretty good, i may cut it but who knows there are a lot i wanna cut beforehand. the pool of 36 / 27 picked (or whatever depending on if people are lazy, which is often) seems good. here let me work it out. ok, i typed this like six hours ago when i was drunk and i ahvent...

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    alright, cube was massively successful tonight. not only were the decks sweet, but we also drank a lot of beer. winning deck (x-posted from 3-0 thread): possible design flaws: -too many colorless lands (this may be a minor effect of moving volrath's and ruins to the main, and vice versa...

    revised duals + your printer panoramas are anything but etb the answer beyond that is "it depends," like the defects range from tolerable (IA / AP painlands) to "shoot me" (cloudcrest lake and friends). there's also the relatively cheap LOR tribal ones like murmuring bosk and gilt-leaf...
