hey ben, my apologies if someone's already said this, but my main beef is that I can't sort my cube by CMC on the main page, nor can i do the same on the analysis page. the filter lets me do this, but then there are no graphs, and i can't use the filter on other people's cubes. basically what...

hey sterling, welcome to the cube group! here are some quick impressions. i have had a blunt and i am always in fact blunt so it might be more fun to take this in a good-natured spirit. your cube, to my tastes, is plagued with the generic issues that plague conventional cube design, which are...

I love it. 'shrine to the warfather' is almost close enough to my own idea for that wedge, 'wolf's lair'

big domestic deal. too much of an east-coast bias, though. i have no idea why they continue to be hq'ed in some godforsaken hillbilly hamlet in western virginia. i'd guess it's because in that region everyone drives to every tournament. plus setting up in seattle is pricey. invis are much...

right, part of its strength in m-pod (beyond tutorability with chord / pod) is the range of tricks you can do with that deck's sac outlets. i'm not totally clear on them, but sam pardee's primer on cfb can't be a bad place to start. as far as 39¢ cards go, this one is pretty good: it annoys...

sometimes i forget how blessed i am to be in seattle. of course i always remember when i drive to portland or vancouver for ptq's. those are nice cities with no shortage of space but GOD are those tournaments miserable. here i can just show up to card kingdom and play a 4-rounder against fairly...

pontiff is a 1-of in 100% of melira pod decks in modern. probably not cube-able, though -- if you're looking for a strong (and also omnipresent-in-modern) effect like this, try zealous persecution

? SCG invis are always 8 rounds of legacy and 8 rounds of standard with t8 alternating. this one is gonna be standard t8 (but given my performance at the last one, i dont wanna get ahead of myself). i think i can shore up my chances by playing merfolk though block season doesn't exist, it's a...

i just really want wedge lands and have come up with inappropriate wedge names for all of them. them shard lands go quick in al'kaabah over here. i enjoy the signaling and direction they provide. after playing the excellent Modern Masters i am still more resistant to vivids. the counters on...

I like both Sarkhans and run them sometimes, the main problem is that there are too many sweet gruul and rakdos cards. if they made a 'sarkhan the izzet' or 'lawmage mr. sarkhan' i'd run em every time no doubt

yoyoyoyoyo kranny!

dom: I LIKE GOOD THINGS ILL HAVE YOU KNOW chris: ugh, this must be both why they blew it with the limited print run and why they had a limited print run. sorry to hear it. some fun drafts can still result!!

HOOOOOOLY SHIT it is good. I gotta run to a soccer game so i'll keep it short: the tribal synergies don't really result in linear strategies. like i hate tribal for the most part because it's so oppressively parasitic and lazy and easy but the archetypes work well with one another. the poison...

addendum: the mirage fetches are dumb, they're much much worse than the regular ones (if not quite strictly worse) and having them go begging is a waste of slots in a way contrary to the density of interactions and sweet cards you have in your cube. wilds and terramorphic are fine (they're much...

+1 to something wicked this way waddells gemstone mine is super-cool, i was a skeptic but then i TRIED IT. and that ladies and gentlemen is all the difference between us and the modo frauds you know what would be perfect? 'wedge lands.' i'd put 5 of those in immediately. i'm gonna try...

fuuuuuck man i wish i coulda made it over but i like being unemployed more than east coast trips i gotta make at some point. i'm pretty sure i'm headed to Jersey in late july for the scg invitational, yall should ping me if you wanna meet up and live in the area (if you live in that area, btw...

http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/cuberhauss-please-try-this-at-home-part-2/ jason: i think the rps thing still works, like if aggro is curving out against control it has a much better chance than if it's drawing bolts and stuff. looks like the modo cube clocks in at 6.25/person =...

can you describe how necrotic ooze ends up working in-game? now that i've seen it suggested i wanna try it REAL BAD

nah, i feel better about yelling at him to play faster when he's my opponent and not my teammate.

dom -- i'm looking forward to it, it's been frustrating including red cards that don't even go well in multiple aggro decks. ah, violent eruption, i'd love to run you but fuck you to death for costing triple-red.
