    That's... a bit passive aggressive, isn't it? You've never struck me as abrasive online, quite the opposite really, what's up with that remark? Now I'm wondering group dynamics and how the rest of the team reacted to that remark.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I've drafted two mono blue decks already in Dominaria (vs AI), and I think the 1/1 statline on Artificer's Assistant is misleading. In a dedicated deck, you can scry 1 almost every turn, and that's actually a fairly strong effect, as Contraband Kingpin has shown us. Meanwhile, it does chip in...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I've gone from two, to one, to none. Delver is often a trap, and as an anchor for the spells matter archetype, it's one of the least interesting ones, and completely out of blue's comfort zone as well.

    You two should play games with nothing on the line more often :')

    Step 1. Open a golden Darius Crowley. Step 2. Dust it and craft Baku. Step 3. ??? Step 4. Profit! Also... Fair enough, nott every card is for everyone. I actually like Darius, and despite Jason's misgivings, I think he could see play as is. Maybe I'ld initially want to test him at 3/3 just to...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    So... Blame Chris for this batch. I went through a few Hearthstone sets to see if there was something worth stealing for our cubes...

    Meh, wither also lowers attack. There isn't really a good analogy in MtG for how damage is handled in Hearthstone.

    This is going to be the best thing in a while :D

    Definitely a build around me type of card. Gets better if you have library manipulation (Brainstorm, Sensei's Divining Top). To answer your question though, one ;) Edit: I did probably make it a bit too fragile, cutting 3 health was probably a bit too drastic. It's harder to trigger for sure...

    Hearthstone

    I'ld totally draft Dollmaster Dorian <3 Darius seems a bit pushed with its Hearthstone stats, honestly. I shaved off 3 health on most of the other minions, because health works differently in Magic (and all of those cards would be silly with +3 toughness), but a 4/1 Darius would be pretty...

    Hearthstone

    I'm curious for Tempostorm's meta snapshot coming Monday. I'm seeing a lot of warlock (cubelock and zoo mostly), paladin (dude and odd), and warrior (specifically odd fireplume warrior). I think the best even deck is warlock, but cubelock is still so powerful there isn't much of an incentive to...

    General [DOM]Dominaria

    Yeah, here's someone opening packs proving just that: Edit: You have to wait for the sixth booster, but there is actually one where none of the uncommons are legendary, and the rare (*cough* mythic *cough*) is. I did notice all of the other five boosters had exactly one legendary creature...

    General [DOM]Dominaria

    I really wonder how they are going to implement the "at least 1 legendary creature in every booster pack", since historically these gimmicks have replaced a common or basic land card (see dfc's in Shadows over Innistrad and mana fixing in Fates Reforged). I did some drafts vs AI under the very...

    The Priest did! It narrowly edged out Shadow Servant: http://riptidelab.com/forum/search/1929642/?q=CFB+Design+Contest&o=date&c[title_only]=1&c[node]=5

    Hearthstone

    Yeah, that's true. I like Guldan because he's one of the ways you can keep up (and come back from behind). I run him in an Even Warlock build that's fun to play. The demons it can get back are the 2/4 taunt, the 4/4 hooked horror, and the 6/6 that deals 1 damage to everything else as a...

    Hearthstone

    True, but at least they need to get to 10 in a deck that's full of self-damaging effects. It was always a race. Now Lackey or the Legendary weapon puts a 3/9 taunt on the battlefield that turns into three 1/3 taunts if you manage to kill it. If you don't, congratulations, they play cube on the...

    Hearthstone

    Technically the Mage can also Counterspell CtA ;) But yeah, the card is really, really powerful. Haven't encountered it too much yet, though. To be honest, I find CubeLock way more disheartening.

    Hearthstone

    Well, technically Call to Arms is a sorcery, so not quite CoCoCo, but it's still insane. Also, unlike in Magic, this actually improves your future draws by a serious margin because of the lower deck size and alternate mana system.

    Hearthstone

    It's telling that Paladin can still put up such numbers when it can't play ridiculous all stars like Tarim, Tirion, Call to Arms, Consecrate, and Spikeridge Steed. Like, Paladin has been a long time favorite of the devs, I feel, when you look at the legendaries the class gets compared to other...

    I gave my likes to the first two posts, because that Lotus Cobra and that SDT are amazing! I run no alters myself, so I don't really have anything else to add, but feel free to post more sweet alters :)
