yep, feel free to crib anything i've written (that's coherent), and ping me if you want anything else written.

hehe, if you're dumping enough stuff in your yard for sewer nemesis and gravecrawler and goyf to be good, well... yeah i hate char, at least psionic blast had the good grace to be absurd and anachronistic.

mill as an alternate win-con is actually an easy enough thing to support. toss in slam-dunk utility land drownyard and righteous 1-drop hedron crab and you've got a mill thing going. (i'd be very interested in a mill MCD thread, with cards that of course effortlessly fit in multiple archetypes...

be careful with BTE, she's really really strong zombie cutthroat is just terrible :[ people would tell me it was droolworthy in OLS draft and even then it was a bad, bad card i'm gna try brimstone volley ghoultree is sweet but consider tombstalker instead of or in addition to

ow, i sprained my brain!! i wonder how people who dont play on modo learn the rules?? it'd be as impossible as memorizing 10,000 cards without playing for me at least

phaven is powerful yo

yeah try electromancer. enablers that work in other decks make me drool. i share jason's concerns but you knew that already, am excited to see what a list looks like!

no love for this thread? love for this thread. (edit:jesse: contagion engine)

yep, the tappedout bots have a hard-on for blue cards and no love for lands at all, i dunno why -- i guess they're trying to spite me or something. decks here look more like the ones in the "3-0" thread (i'll post another one in a bit). it's a hard problem for me to describe, but i think the...

pfffft happens in modern all the time. in all actuality i love this idea but its implementation has been a bit problematic. not in the sense of acquiring the lands or putting em on the table or drafting em or putting em in the decks, which is fun, but jesus some of these things are powerful...

identity crisis: memento mori reanimation is actually fun as a value thing, i remember telling you before that i'm of the opinion that you can include 1x of the best reanimation spells and all the best targets excl. g'brand and jin-g and still have a fun and balanced reanimation section. it...

really! i guess i don't understand the rules. (i've heard something like this before and would be surprised if you weren't right but i have no idea why.) JUDGE???

d'oh, sorry, was gonna put this in the last post. my good friend was briefly back in town and graced last week's cube with his presence. as i was loaming him he said two things: 1. the durdling is sweet but somewhat non-interactive (i.e. the time it takes to loam and stuff is tedious and the...

yep, another (positive) unintended consequence of this is that blue is the color that needs the other colors the most, so fewer gold cards curb its intrinsic power.

re reanimate: haha, exactly. subtlety, discrimination, discernment, and individual judgment are not really within the mtgs purview. i was gonna say i love bob in cube precisely because he _isn't_ that good. (do you have figures for your cube's average cmc spellwise? mine is ((0*3 + 1*71 + 2*78...

ah, we don't NEED to but i like to! so like ~8 lands / player / draft packs + 6 lands / player / utility draft = ~14 lands per player = ~11 or so actually played? an average of 5-6 basics is about where i want my cube decks to be (obv some will have 0 some will have 16)

i think so. (it's not a trigger but a replacement effect, but i'm pretty sure when the draw resolved you'd mill 5, get the imp, draw another card, and lose 1 life, in that order but all at the same time, if that makes sense w/r/t how state-based stuff works.) funny if you cast sphinx's with x=5...
