I'm an auditory learner, but I end up doing a ton of reading and writing because other people's verbal prose is often not great. Maybe I'll try Podcasts, but then it's only so often that board game night comes together, and it's even rarer that I know what exactly we're gonna be playing before...

right, i'm not sure when the mulligan rules were solidified in their current form but i'm pretty sure it was around the time urza's block was standard-legal. of course this was a combo-fueled clusterfuck. for constructed, there's no way you could change the mulligan rules (at least not in legacy...

So like I know I should be into them because then I would have more context by which to judge games, but actually just going over to a friend's house and drinking and wanting to learn the game is a major hurdle for me. Is there anything beyond the videos? I'm more of a text person, but the...

How do you guys surmount the difficulty of learning a complicated new board game, i.e. you have to understand the rules first (which may take one or two full rounds), and only then does it get strategically interesting? I think I err on the side of not learning new games to this i.e. the games...

ah yes this sounds even better (i think most of our contestants take peek 1 at liberty anyway after mulling cuz fuck it, they think they're entitled to and i agree). will try it next time. great suggestion

the utility land thing was a smashing success! everyone loves playing with weird lands. they shored up some archetypes and invented others that before were simply impossible. the 6 lands/person thing worked well too, it really encouraged newer players to take more fixing with their 'real' picks...

this thread needs an update from all y'all. i'll start: assault loam (not great) reanimator (pretty great)

yeah, the algs on tappedout are awful. i just end up drafting GRxx midrange with perfect mana every time

i gave it a try (http://cubetutor.com/visualspoiler/114), seems like its analysis options are more basic than the tappedout ones, the presentation is less pleasing to the eye, and the list software is buggy (i mean who can't handle a w/w/w/w/w, come on!) i imagine it'll get better though, seems...

scute mob is awesome. i found dragonmaster underwhelming. the difference between 5 and 6 is fairly big

ahh, they hate the modo cube because it's the same as their own.

haha, what i meant was that it seemed like the venom was no longer being misdirected. like the people of east germany no longer hating the running dogs from the west and tearing down the wall or something.

oh gosh you're too kind. as you guys know i love 1's in cube and since i don't want to waste a slot on a savannah lions ever, i've done a number of gatherer searches for every 1-drop dude that fit whatever i was looking for at the time. the pickiness led to some fun discoveries like scute mob...
