    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    It's a pity you don't, because I can tell you from experience that fastlands with basic land types are great! :)

    The Magic Crumble Pie

    Recent printings have made me contemplate changing my color wheel again, and I need a space to visually put up interesting three color cards for each shard/wedge. I'll put them roughly in order. Feel free to chime in if you think I'm missing a card, or considering one that is unplayable. I...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    The card I always suggest when someone brings up Cataclysm is Tragic Arrogance, which is a 100% more fun to play, indeed oftentimes better, but has none of the "don't even try to play Magic" downsides Armageddon-like spells have on the game.

    Card/Deck land destruction

    I think Avalanche Riders is better in most cases?

    I don't run RB, but this seems like a really interesting anchor in BR madness!

    Don't listen to Brad, he's clearly biased! :P I've missed with Sin Collector plenty of times, and a 2/1 for 3 isn't exactly a stellar body. In my experience, the card can be a sweet value play against the right deck, but at three mana, it's no Thoughtseize on wheels as far as wrecking people's...

    With an instant in hand or a noncreature, nonland card on top of your library even! :p

    White doesn’t really need the discard outlets, it just wants to cast the applicable cards twice. There’s a few really excellent flashback spells in white and w/x pairs, the best of which even makes spirit tokens for the Geistcaller! Besides, any color you will pair white with, assuming you’re...

    NICE! This extends the "cast from your graveyard" theme to white, for those trying to craft a Jeskai identity :)

    Good lord that Apex Altisaur is hilarious as a ramp/reanimation pay-off, and it fits the dinosaur enrage theme in my cube to boot! :D

    Venser is really fun, in my opinion at least, unless you have a way to reliably bounce it every turn, much like Mystic Snake is a delightful cube card until you also run Crystal Shard...

    I find you don't actually want to run too many CC cards. I also think these play similar enough that you don't really need both. Harbinger is a bit more flexible, in that it can be cast as a 2UU card, but I personally think Merfolk Trickster is more fun, as you can ambush random evasive...

    Except the FedEx arrow is a beautiful design :)

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Same, except I don't run Welder. It's just such an easy p1p1, and it is definitely exactly the card a black-based control deck wants to pick up, because it does everything. Kill a creature? Check! Gain life? Check! Leave behind a big body that kills in a few turns after you've established board...

    Pokemon TCG: the budget Vintage you didn't know existed

    Just checking some prices on https://www.cardmarket.com/en/Pokemon, and these cards are still pretty rare on there. The Alolan Raichu starts at €0.70 (8 offers) and seems to be the only "worthless" one of those four. Aerodactyl goes for €20 (1 offer) That Keldeo goes for around €20-25 as well...

    Comparing Garruk's untap ability to Treachery doesn't feel right to me, in the same way that comparing Pore Over the Pages to Frantic Search because they both untap lands is silly. A two mana rebate is not nearly as powerful as a full refund of mana invested. I've seen Garruk's untap ability...

    Keep me updated if you don't mind, because this is a dealbreaker for me as well :)

    That's probably a conscious choice then, since there's a bunch of playables (even without the planeswalkers) in Lorwyn, across the power band. It's quite the treasure trove really! ;) Cloudgoat Ranger Crib Swap Galepowder Mage Goldmeadow Harrier Knight of Meadowgrain Mirror Entity Oblivion...
