    There's also it having a 3rd toughness, I'm still not sure it's enough better :P

    I think the mark of a good multicolor card is one that I wouldn't run a weaker version of given it was mono-color. So supreme verdict, no. Just add another wrath. Sphinx's Rev? Well, it's an improvement on stroke of genius. This... well it's cool, but is it cool enough to be a better idea...

    I've been doing a lot of teaching over the years :p My playgroup is pretty casual, a lot of them only really play cube the once every 1-2 weeks I host it. Fetchlands are good, you need more manafixing then you ever will baneslayer angels, no color is stronger than being in the right deck for...

    Well I appreciate the 2/1 fail case. Renegade Doppleganger isn't a creature, it's essentially Flameshadow Conjuring, but with a pile of restrictions.

    Just don't make it too tall (Wurmcoil/goblin Piker) or too thin (All these cards are exactly equal in power level, what the hell do I do?) The non-height dimensions don't really mean anything in the metaphor, so I guess volume is cube size? Which is also kinda a matter of personal taste...

    See, I keep telling myself, but nobody ever wants sylvan in their final 40, and I hate the stupid, complicated for complicated sake wording it has because it predates good templating. So I switched to the far simpler Mirri's Guile, since nobody ever payed life for sylvan anyways. But this is...

    Basically everyone is using some amount of vertical space. Retail limited is near the bottom, and is wide as hell. Ancestral is at the top, and there's like maybe 10 cards that are it's peer. I think the pyramid metaphor is a good one for magic's card pool overall. Since cubes by their nature...
