    Those are not bad things (well, other than the walkers, I don't think there's a single white walker I really like, except Kytheon). Other than that the past few years have added quite a few interesting, to me at least, cards that break the pattern you describe. Seeker of the Way Selfless...

    Ripjaw Raptor made me fall in love with the two Wildfires in my cube all over again <3

    Preliminary testing has me enthousiastic about: These are the only cards I've tested so far, but they've all been excellent. Savage Stomp being a mana cheaper than Hunt the Weak apparently makes all the difference, and if you get to use it with one of the two excellent dinosaurs...

    Boneyard Scourge, Patron of the Vein, Vindictive Lich and Shifting Shadow didn't make the cube after all. First cube night with the new Commander cards that did make it in is scheduled for the 30th this month! I have been playtesting on Forge though, and Taigam is amazing! Curse of Opulence has...

    I counter your best pirate with Hostage Taker! :) But I do think it's pretty amazing they actually had pirates in Kaladesh, and they were appropriate to the story line as well! Edit: I remembered Skyship Plunderer being a pirate as well, but apparently those are the only two in Kaladesh block o_O

    That one's pretty good at sniping aggro 1 and 2 drips and utility creatures like mana elves, Grim Lavamancer, Blood Artist, etc. Atzocan Archer has to be a good tool for slower green based control deck. It's also mega lulz with Giant Growth :)

    This is a rather interesting variety of this effect. It's not super good or something, both the mana cost and sorcery speed make me not want to run it, but still, two bodies with lifelink is cute. I'm disappointed there's no playable red rare with enrage :(

    That back is super good though. Three spells is kinda hard but not impossible, especially when the card itself helps you achieving that goal by giving you a potential extra spell on each of yoyr turns!

    Sooo... the red one does not disappoint!

    You obviously don't run enough Demonic Pacts then :D

    The problem with both Perilous Voyage and Vapor Snag is that they can't return Demonic Pact to your hand, which is at least a very real downside in my cube :)

    Ah right, I probably should have mentioned my cube supports only five color pairs, and {b/r} is not one of them, so your mana fixing is going to be a bit awkward. All the funnier when it actually works out though :) I like Hollow One in the list. I mean, I pushed the discard theme a bit more in...

    Oh yeah, for sure. I hardly look at the draft data most of the time. I always ask my playgroup for input though. Stuff like, was there a lot of back and forth action, were there any card that felt overwhelming, were my customs in line with the power level of the real cards (ideally they're a bit...

    Woo! My cube's finally up to date again! Let's go! :) inscho's cube greeted me with the following starting booster. I'm going in blind, so I have no idea what to expect, but the two cards that pop out to me are Kolaghan's Command and Clan Defiance. Artisan of Kozilek hints at ramp being a...

    YES! Ben has restored my champion account including the custom images! Also including apologies for the slight delay in answering my mail :) I have greatly enjoyed my champion account, the ability to upload custom card scans especially is a boon for those running custom cards like me. Also...

    Is that ogre a mythic too? It really is the most awkward design in the set. Who'ld be happy opening that as one of their box mythics?

    Oh, I bet they're all still in one of my (many) MSE projects. I tend to archive customs I don't use anymore, as well as random neat ideas I don't plan on using immediately (to appointed archive projects, of which I had to create a few because they were getting too unwieldy). I also usually use...

    For a minute there I thought this would turn ugly, but then everyone turned out to be a decent human being. Thanks y'all. Speaking about black five drops... Meh... Not exactly the card that answers our prayers, is it. Keep trying WotC, you'll succeed eventually!

    Frenzied Fugue is such an awesome card :) There's no reason red can't have multiple threaten effects though. Personally I run Dominus of Fealty, which is bonkers (in a sweet way) if you can land it. I have to say it's probably better in my specific environment than in most, seeing that Izzet is...
