    There's Also Consuming Vapors, which really does help with how much black hurts itself thesedays

    Card/Deck Kill it with fire (let's talk removal)

    I will say, Soul Reap has actually been really bad for me :( Black's usual doom blade wheelhouse has a bit of self synergy, in that since you're drafting black cards, you're less likely to run into opposing black creatures. Soul Reap has the that problem in spades, especially since I find...

    Honestly now that murder has been printed, I don't think we need murder with a downside and 5 times as much text as it needs to have

    MCMcEmcee's Cube~ [450]

    Having read that article on how ensoul is to be used in affinity, it gives me the jitters in cube. It either sits dead, or acts as a 2-3 mana 5/5 haste. That's a hell of a power differential! I try and dodge cards that are either insane or horrible, for the most part

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

    Maybe it's not. Maybe the first ability involves paying life somehow. Or maybe both abilities involve gaining life, and the ult involves paying it somehow. Maybe a hatred emblem? Kuro, Pitlord?

    Should it be "only black or colorless"?

    General Riptidelab mostly-custom cube attempt #1

    Literally days ago, I only recently started playing :P I GET IT NOW. THIS IS LIKE REALIZING THE WORD "Heroes" IS IN THEROS!!! Yeesh! I think the lifegain is a bit insane on this one. Even going land, this is double bolt + gain 6, and god forbid you have other landfall triggers. Without the...

    Good thought about frost lynx actually. I always wanted it to be :1::u: for a 2/1 because power level amirite? Man o War would be insane at that cost

    They do sadly, as I found out in my first arena. Enrage does indeed have memory issues, but I've got silence worded right now as it exiles the creature and gives a token with the same P/T That way it gets rid of all the auras, +1/+1 counters and such, and gets rid of abilities as well. Yeah...

    Nah not mana wurm, Mana Addict. The one that gets the temporary +2/+0. I got the choice of it (a 2 mana 1/3 in my warrior deck, it turns out, as I had only weapons and a single cleave as targets)

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    I fully endorse it. Goldmane is a little too good in creature mirrors Why on earth is that card 3 dollars? :P

    OFFICIAL HEARTHSTONE THREAD

    Yeah porting all the mechanics is certainly overkill, but there's some real gems here. Combo, Divine Shield, Silence, Freeze (Basically detain, but it's on more cards here), Stealth (Kinda), Overload (Echo on spells? Could be interesting) Hell, you could even do something like arcane...

    Interesting! Hearthstone is filled with some weird little idiosyncrasies like that I find, like how weapons are countered by counterspell (apparently more negate than envelop) but don't pump the game's equivalent of kiln fiend.

    General Riptidelab mostly-custom cube attempt #1

    I think it's probably against better magic to try and make taunt work in a system where everything doesn't have provoke. One thing I have to say about silence: Why is it destroying equipment? I know it "gets rid of bonuses", but if you silence a creature next to a flametounge totem (Creatures...

    General Making Aggro more inclusive

    Also: Ajani Steadfast sounds like it would be nice as well, as the +1 on a random creature will pump pridemates before they deal damage.
