    Affect or afflict? I remember last time they abolished the declare blockers step (Zendikar limited)...

    Your preference is antithetical to mine :eek: Nice, uniform basic land art, everything black bordered, that's what I like!

    That was pretty much my reaction. I started playing with Invasion, pretty much right before the grand finale of Urza's storyline :) In the (cringeworthy) video, they're hinting Dominaria has had time to recover, lush forests and all.

    Unrelated, but Wizards just anounced that the first standalone set after Ixalan is called Dominaria!

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I was thinking a bit about that scroll mechanic I thought of a while ago and wondered if maybe I could turn it into a nice energy support/spells matter theme overlap with something like... Aether Researcher {1}{U} Creature - Human Wizard When ~ enters the battlefield, create two blue Aether...

    The {w/b} and {u/r} ones are already in my cube. Long live the power of customs! But, if we're wishing for completed cycles, I wouldn't mind if Wizards decided to print enemy color Borderposts in the near future!

    Sweet! That's one of my designs! I don't have it in my cube anymore because the RR was a bit too taxing in my multicolor cube for a custom spell, but it's sweet to see one of your customs pop up in someone else's cube :) I've since upped the fixing and successfully reintroduced a select few CC...

    Hahahaha, I completely agree with that sentiment :D

    While I'm not excited by the card, I can completely understand why others would be. If you're in the market for a good three mana wrath, Toxic Deluge is a real winner. Of course you might already cube that, I wouldn't know :) In any case, there was a time when my cube still ran shit like...

    Sorry, believe me, I know the downsides are very, very real. Savor the Moment was as unplayable a rare as they get, like really, really bad. Bontu's Resolve has a much more relevant effect, and a slightly less bad downside (artifact mana still untaps), but the downside is still so severe it...

    It is, but I still don't want my black-based control decks to easily counter an aggro start on turn 3, and this lets them do that.

    See! This is what I'm talking about! These are super sweet and probably both auto-adds to my cube :D Now what the heck is Eternalize?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Cool! I remembered the card from back when I still played 60 card casual decks with friends. One of them had a really cool Guided Passage deck, so when I was looking for a replacement for Maelstrom Wanderer (which didn't get picked and was actively disliked by some) I went looking for a copy and...

    I don't like any of these three cards. Bolas' +2 is filthy and I much prefer the old design, Samut is a boring Planeswalker in a guild that's teeming with interesting planeswalkers, and I've been moving to five+ mana wraths on purpose in my cube, so I'm not looking for a new black wrath at cmc...

    You know, Genesis is definitely on my (pretty short) reprint request list. It's one of the very few old border cards in my cube. Necromancy Genesis Stormbind Guided Passage Chimeric Idol Smokestack Ha! I bet people won't guess those six when I ask them which cards in my cube haven't been...

    Fair enough :) Don't project that preference on me though :P

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    That completely depends on how you build your cube though, doesn't it? Genesis certainly isn't going to win the fight against the Wurmcoil Engines and Path to Exiles of this world, but those aren't mandatory, and certainly not mandatory for a good Magic experience. If you like Genesis so much...

    Are you suggesting Genesis shouldn't be in the cube? It's such an awesome slow value card in green. Love it!

    If you're hellbent on pursuing this silly design [:p], here's the correct wording. Unless otherwise specified, permanents you put onto the battlefield enter the battlefield under your control by default. You don't have to specify that. Since you aren't searching, you can't fail to find, so...
