    Modern Archetype Cube

    LD has kinda shifted focus in my eyes. Keeping your opponent off getting to 2 mana hasn't been fun for anyone. As stated, this usually ends with you getting run over by 1-2 drops because your whole hand got expended to stop them from casting hellrider or fact or fiction. Keeping them off of 5...

    There is also the problem that charm also produces a threat. Also, +2/+2 and trample seems a lot more blowouty to my mind than indestructable. I dunno. Could be good, I did actually run reprisal for a while there, so maybe. 4 toughness is a lot, and I cut reprisal because 4 power was so hard to...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I don't think it's shitty, but I wouldn't say it's that great. Take impulse for example. Card's alright, better and worse than ponder/preordain in a few ways, nothing too huge or splashy. Unless you're specifically finding one card to complete a combo, you're trading sorcery for looking at a...

    Yeah, I think I thought you were saying "If worldknit is good, you must be poison/spikey power level"

    Okay, maybe this is just me but has demonic tutor really been that insane for people in draft? Does it need to be that much shittier?

    Damnit you're right. Ah well. Suddently I'm not expecting anything good from this mechanic. Hopefully it's on spells I guess? That might be cool

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    I kinda disagree Eric. Even with a flatish power level there's still outliers and synergy you can use to overpower people. A lot can be done when you don't have to worry about color requirements. Also this might be different if wasteland is your land of choice rather than it's alternatives And...

    Pfft you need a 1 drop and it ALWAYS goes on your smallest creature. I think that's doable. Look at the 2 cost bloodthirst/raid guys, similar restriction

    I love me a good +1/+1 counter mechanic (of which outlast itself is not) 7 mana is probably too much, even for 10 total p/t, but I'd love to see cheaper versions of this guy. Ooo! Can we get a white 2/1 for 2, bolster 1?

    Oooo hadn't seen that yet! I think C1 is a bit too much to pay to protect a creature, but psudo-reprisal might make it good enough. I dunno, I could never get people to pay 1 mana to protect a creature, let alone 2

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    I dunno. Every now and again I think I should remove the pods or survival of the fittest, someone comes along and destroys us with them :P some notes: The conflicting aims of pod and prowess is real sad I keep telling myself pod is a horrible deck to play in 4 person drafts. Then again...

    Hallowed Spiritkeeper Swapped this guy in, took out my second Blade Splicer. Looks promising, I love the idea of wrath protection/sac synergy/self mill/pod all coalescing here Containment Priest I'm giving her a shot. Blows out pod, sweet with flickerwisp, decent body etc. Would probably be...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    Oooo, love the diregraph ghoul guy! I think he needs to be a 2/1, but yeah, he's awesome. I like that your opponent has some control over when you proliferate, so they can throw a wrench in your plans, and that basically every color has a way to do so. That's a grand slam card :D About the...

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Sounds like a plan to me mate. Is 2 pods the right ammount for a 360 list? I know it's a niche thing, but how many does one want in a deck? I'm a little out of touch on this subject since my friends basically refuse to pod.

    Card/Deck +1/+1 Counters

    Honestly I want more cards like volt charge. I love that card is something you want to be doing in basically every deck, but the synergy of adding a few counters goes from cool to devestating. Maybe a boomerang with proliferate? Or a doom blade? I can't really think of a green or white card...

    Eric, ask yourself this honestly: Would people really think you sold out that underground cubing spirit if you got foil 8th/9th ones? :P
