    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Not a lot of changes going on, just adding multicolor cards I'd been shaving so that I can draft with 10 people again, but my latest crusade is revisiting the artwork on my customs and seeing if I can do better. Not every card has a storied history in my cube, but here's a few I've swapped out...

    General What is Temur doing for you?

    Okay I haven't read any of this shit and it's too late for me to start now, but I've had success letting people branch out into 3 color by making all the pairs do overlapping things. Like if :u::r:, :r::w: and :u::w: are all spells decks, but they go about it in different ways, people catch on...

    Card/Deck Dusk / Dawn

    The translation on mythic spoiler (Feel free to correct me if you actually know the lamguage) says return to hand at the moment, I'm not sure this is really an unburial rights type card, more creeping renaissance which I'm far less excited about. Also quick hits: Love the concept, hate the...

    There's probably a limit to how many evolving wilds you can comfortably run before you're not just root maze-ing yourself. Maybe that's not something I want my drafters thinking about, but then again I also don't want people running 15 basic decks :P

    You could also throw a bunch of Ash Barrens in there instead. I remember a lot of people being really excited about these when they came out and it all sort of fell off

    General Decks Not Cards--Synergy and Power Design

    I mean they are colorless. Would that similar power level cards existed, you'd pick these over their colored counterpart. Maybe something like Batterskull? Colorless, powerful, and as at home in control and aggro alike. Edit: Close on Solemn Simulacrum, but I don't think I'd play him in a deck...

    General Decks Not Cards--Synergy and Power Design

    Hey I'll be the first to admit my cube isn't really doing what I want it to, and I'd be a bit insane if I chided you for saying what I do, but in a far more detailed and helpful manner. Interesting thoughts about the scrylands. Good to note that you've got them prioritized as manafixing first...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I've been considering it as well. I think there's certainly some value in stallbreakers like that, but I worry the same as you do. If you were just straight swapping this for garruk I'd recommend against it, but I'm not sure if it's independently necessary. I'd say try it, and swap to one of a...

    General Decks Not Cards--Synergy and Power Design

    Here's what you're actually seeing Bident Wing Splicer and Chord are real though, and I'm willing to at least defend the first two (Cord you'll have to talk to grillo about) However, there's something interesting here: Brainstorm? That's something I've taken as a given in most of the...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Interesting card. Provided this isn't Rain of Salt (appropriately named) with flashback, it seems interesting.

    You know, once I muscle through the offhand references to people I've never heard of and your run on sentence structure, you can be downright insightful sometimes.
