    Is the idea to prefer cancel+ as the default counterspell?

    General Fighting Disappointment: Lets fix some cards that were almost sweet

    I actually think he's awesome :D The only regret I have is that 5 is a bit much for the kind of decks that want him (turning strangleroot geist and hell's thunder into dragons) Maybe if he made 4/4s and cost 4?

    I kinda don't understand you guys :P Mana leak seems like the last thing I would want to complicate in my draft enviornment. You don't need a huge X to make it good, as 2-3 usually does fine. Like why not miscalculation or something with a more useful additional angle? Or condescend? At...

    I think the idea is fairer tinker targets, not fairer tinker. personal favorite: Steel Hellkite

    Rolling Earthquake I can endorse. The not hitting fliers clause on regular earthquake is REALLY bad most of the time. Shame it's like a 200$ card. Most of the CCX quake effects are god aweful, black sun's zenith most of all, since it has bad synergy with anything that would survive it instead...

    You choose a creature during deck construction and can reveal them at anytime (They used sticky notes, which is probably the best way of doing it) They don't go in your deck, the start in the command zone, and trigger whenever. They're kinda the opposite of the utility draft actually: higher...

    They're also spirits, just in case you wanna go all kamigawa on us :P

    Yeah, but if packs get messed up it's not a huge problem. 44 card draft pools are hardly backbreaking, especially since you're missing out on last picks

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Hey, I wanted to try raptor. And I admit, sometimes it was awesome. But a lot can go wrong. The single wargear has been fine if powerful. Bounce is still really punishing, as are flicker effects, and the card can't go on manlands for the control punishing trifecta. But the second was usually...

    Yes, though given you get the first pick from the pack he should go highly You can either play a larger cube, or ask people to bring actual boosters. (Arabian nights anyone?). I guess that's one reason to bring it up beyond 360 :P

    I support this change. Smallpox is just so hard to get working in limited.

    Patch Notes! In: Out: Eric, I hate to say it but among the current card pool, delver and cloudfin raptor are kinda inferior to Phantasmal Bear as a blue creature deck anchor. I still think he's awful though. With this patch I wanted to dial my themes back a bit, let the format...

    This is basically how lotus feels :P Though I guess their argument is that you more roll a dice to see who gets 50$, so it could be you next week!

    I do, but said shenanigans are much harder to pull off with enchantments, (and most of my bounce is creature only) so I think the art upgrade is nicer. I basically added another ORing on the same logic before the set came out, and my drafters did enjoy it. On the other hand, I get flack for...

    Tatics has been sweet for you CML? It's kinda seperated from others in the sweet category. Also: Are people adding banishing light? I do like the updated wording, but my ORings look so much nicer...

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

    Another card for green's "Every part of the buffalo" approach to card advantage: Sage of Abundance :2::g: If you would draw a card, you may instead choose land or nonland and reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a card of the chosen kind. Put that card into your hand and...

    Gnarled Scarhide has been good, but I think we all knew that. Scourge of Fleets has pretty consistently been a one sided upheval, and replaying value creatures is usually not a life or death factor. Even against pod you're likely getting a few dorks with it and their current pod target. He's...
