Woah! My second booster box contained... smuggler's copter noxious gearhulk torrential gearhulk dovin baan steel overseer and a foil Blooming Marsh ... and some other stuff. I don't usually like foils, but those inventions are sooooo pretty!

Yeah, I would cut booster size before enforcing a higher minimum deck size.

Define discard heavy. Is there a lot of Mind Rot going on, or a lot of Fiery Temper? If it's the former, Nahiri's Wrath might be hard to pull off, but Key to the City might actually provide some protection, by discarding a card you were going to discard anyway and drawing an extra card next...

Hahaha, fair enough, apparently you have a very average taste in color wheels :D ;) This was a fun exercise though, and it made me reconsider my cube's setup! I'm going to miss the grindy BUG decks, but am already looking forward to the RUG energy deck and the return of BW Smokestack Humans! :D

Aaaaand done! I updated the previous post. Orzhov was the biggest winner of including off-color activation cards, as was to be expected with all-stars Lingering Souls and Unburial Rites.

Working on my Magnum Opus here :) What can we learn from this? Basically this is a popularity poll based on the quite extensive CubeTutor data. I chose to give more weight to true gold cards relative to hybrid cards, and more weight to pick percentage relative to cube count. Gold cards are...

If I have to field Naya, this is certainly the wheel for it. I want {r/g} and {g/w}, so I can run all the Wild Nacatls, Kird Apes and Loam Lions in the world!

Yup, one hundred percent behind this. I actually cut all CC drops from my cube ages ago.

I took the top 3 most played gold cards for each shard (rares and mythics only, to avoid pollution of the data by Peasant / Pauper cubes) and calculated CubeTutor's preferred color wheel based on that. The stats CT keeps for each card are Pick Count, Pass Count, Pick Percentage, and Cube Count...

Oh man, the memes are precious for this one :)

That was sick :)

On it ;)

Try "[ c ]cardname[ / c ]" without the spaces (and without the quotes). Also, quoting your post is hard, you've got font size and font type tags on every line o_O

And it can beat down when you don't need the mana. Don't forget that. This is possibly a 5/5 for 4 after all.

I found it much easier to rank the shards and wedges, so I calculated the order of guilds based on that. Guilds pairings ranked by coolness (objective rating, best to worst): {B/G} {U/R} {U/B} {B/R} {G/U} {W/B} {W/U} {R/G} {R/W} {G/W} I assigned each guild a compound rating, based on the...

Supporting all 10 guilds in a set (or in a cube) has some serious problems if you're pushing a gold theme. For one, if everyone's in a different guild, there's no competition for the gold cards. Also, each guild demands a threshold of cards in its colors to really feel supported, which means...

I think Crawler is comparable in power to Basalt Monolith, which brings it into GRBS territory for many cubes here.

Really? You have look-at-me-I-can-do-lifegain-and-wraths-in-a-million-different-ways Orzhov and sleep-indu-snoooooooore.... Azorius that high? I agree on Selesnya though, but there's no way I can axe it from my cube without giving up Grixis, a.k.a. the bestest shard in existence, a.k.a. Nicol...
