This is probably far from optimal, but it did beat miracle rogue (polymorphing both Shaku and an Auctioneer ^_^), and it's fun to play! I still have to counter a quest with Kabal Lackey into Counterspell though :)

I found a Hill Giant I like <3

Ok, I built elemental shaman without the OP legendary, which is still a sweet deck, but I only played two games with it, because I pulled Lyra Sunshard from a pack, and built a priest control deck around her. My god is she awesome! I won an epic slogfest against a priest deathrattle quest deck...

That's why it's a cool alt-win. You have to work for it! Also, this is really neat as well!

I like Cruel Reality, maybe curses will be a playable theme. This seems like an awesome fetch target for Bitterheart Witch, for example. Obviously lower power, but if there are enough powerful target, the Witch looks legit. (translated from Spanish, hence the weird font) This is a cute...

Man, I don't know what to build yet. My 6 Un'goro boosters were crap, and I lost so much o_O On the plus side, I got 3400+ dust for the HoF cards, so I can definitely craft something. Legendaries are so expensive though... maybe I should go for rares and epics?

Eh. Since when has Air Elemental been good enough for our cubes?

Holy cow!

I am utterly confused as to why it grants lifelink to other cats and also creates cat tokens with lifelink, but doesn't have lifelink itself...

I'm really liking this one!

Oooh, I missed that one! Nice cards!

Eh. Modern, legacy, and vintage are all beloved by enough people that I feel they've done a well enough job. Each format sees cards played from all different periods, it's really the old creatures that have (mostly) fallen out of favor, the spells are certainly still competitive. Really, they've...

Ask CML about vampires in cube ^_^

No doubt. There's an interesting article by Rosewater somewhere in the archives about what he would change with the knowledge of years of making Magic, and there's some pretty interesting tweaks. Ha! Found it! The interesting part starts halfway after the long winded, self-congratulatory...

Try playing Beta in constructed or limited and tell me how fun that first (technically second) set really was compared to modern sets if you factor out the nostalgia. Magic today isn't the same game as it was back then, but still, it's amazing how close to its roots the underlying core of the...

Yeah, I would definitely categorize Workshop/Village/Gardens as an engine deck. And slog decks... well, in my experience I would lable most decks he defines as slog decks failed engine decks (because your opponent's attack cards fuck up your strategy) or engine decks (Duke/Duchy is just another...

They're changing how split cards work starting with Amonkhet: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/amonkhet-split-card-rules-changes-2017-04-04 This right out kills some modern decks like Expertise + Beck/Call.

I'm curious as to what other routes you are talking about. I mean, some people like to just buy random stuff, but that's hardly a strategy, and certainly not a consistently succesful one. There's of course the famous Silver strategy, I'll concede that that one's not about building an engine, and...

Attack cards can be really good as well, the Witch really messes up the flow of your opponent's deck and is great for your own deck if you happen to have a few action doublers (Village, etc.) Imo Seaside is definitely worth getting because of the awesome duration mechanic. It feels a bit more...

Trump rated every priest card 1 star out of 5 as well. Goodness gracious, the cards really don't look that bad to me, and Dragonfire Potion is still an amazing board clear, isn't it? Even if isn't really one-sided any more, 5 damage should clear almost anything that's played in the first five turns.
