    Ok, time for numbers. I looked at the cube count by set, according to CubeTutor, listing a few of the most popular cards first printed in that set. Now, this took some creative digging, since top cards by set does not include the reprints in the numbers, so for cards with reprints my numbers...

    Also, I can see dbs running the card in their combo cube, but in a regular cube the mentioned downsides are only going to be felt harder, and the upsides less.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Considering that bestow changes card types on the stack, and Hallow actually turns Flametongue Kavu into a 4/2 that gives you 4 life (aside: show of hands, how many of you knew Hallow worked like that? I've actually had the interaction come up in Peasant before :D), I believe the following...

    Meh? I'ld rather run more specific options that signal a theme, like Oketra's Monument or Baral, Chief of Compliance.

    I filled out the survey and let them know I hate protection on permanents with a passion. Who knows, if enough people let them know, they might renege. https://survey.marketpointsinc.com/wc0719gb4/Welcome# Damn, I forgot to mention how much prefer "hexproof from" if they want a hard to...

    I contemplated that, but oof, Recurring Unearth that requires you to sac a creature is quite harsh. Don't think you'ld play that. I could make the second Guild Trip an instant, but always have the creature turn into a 1/1, maybe? Ha, too bad there's no room for flavor text: "You killed this...

    Oh shit, I totally read your original request wrong! I thought you asked for a discard spell, my bad! :confused: Uh, ok, let me think... Art link for the second piece This discard spell is a bit better I think. It misses a lot of targets, and I could see this card at a cost of {b} (at...

    Nerfed? For real? What's your nerf? Your CT page still shows the regular version.

    Well... Straight up Coercion is probably way too powerful. Compare to Nightmare Void, which actually saw some standard play. The effect I chose is a good deal weaker, but actually synergizes with the madness theme pretty well. Art link

    Sets [ELD] Throne of Eldraine

    These alternate frames will, in fact, be available in both normal boosters as well as in the more expensive collector's boosters! As it's an uncommon, I would think this one shouldn't be too expensive? Unless it's bonkers good of course.

    I'm pretty sure it has been like this for a good while now. The summer months are always a flurry of releases, and then in the winter things slow down again for a while. Also, not two months ;) Throne of Eldraine: October 4, 2019 Commander 2019: August 23, 2019 Core Set 2020: July 12, 2019...

    Well... Turns out the big announcement was about "Project Booster Fun"! Oh my! :rolleyes: Ok, kinda excited that the Buy a Box promo is going to be available in nonfoil in case I "need" one for my cube. https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/making-magic/project-booster-fun-2019-07-20...

    Checking my cube, and C2017 and C2018 actually tie the original commander for most includes in my cube. C2017 might very well win out if I can make room for Curse of Opulence again, now that Woodland Champion is a thing. The Curse has been a very sweet card for me in the past, and the only...

    General Supporting aggro without making it poisonous

    Who says aggro is only interested in vanilla cards? Just to name a few... Isamaru, Hound of Konda enhances the historic subtheme in my white section, which has an aggressive bend thanks to D'Avenant Trapper and Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle (which isn't itself aggressive, but provides a lot of...

    When my opponent flashes in a Snapcaster Mage to block my Borderland Marauder, I instantly scoop. No sane blue player would play Snappie as an Ambush Viper, unless their hand was so chock-full of value that continuing on would be futile anyway!

    General Supporting aggro without making it poisonous

    Emphasis mine. Sorry to be blunt, but that's a (very biased) opinion, not a fact. What you have to ask yourself is, are there other players in my play group that enjoy said one drops? If so, are you okay with a part of your cube not catering to your own preferences but to the preferences of...

    General Your favourite Draft formats/blocks

    There's four that stand out to me. In no particular order, they are... 1. Triple Khans of Tarkir Both morphs and wedges were really well integrated into this format. Tons of fun to draft, with a lot of guesswork (what does your opponent have...?) 2. Triple Rise of the Eldrazi This format was...
