Attrition seems like a bonkers card in a reject rare cube. Repeatable removal on a near unkillable permanent type (considering enchantment removal is pretty rare at rare).

It's often hard to draw a line when deciding whether complaints about issues like this are justified or not. At times such complaints can seem besides the point, petulant or unfounded*. In this particular case though, I would argue that Police Brutality is not at all a name that would sound at...

I was looking at that Entomb and thinking... What is wrong with this picture? :) I think I'ld take the Damnation here, card advantage in black!

I uh... What booster were you replying to? Because the four on this page don't have Bitterblossom in them >_< :)

I doubt you're not already doing this if you're a stats lover, but I often ask my players to write down their seat, their first and their last picks, whether those cards end up in their deck, and what deck type and deck colors they ended up with. This only works if you diligently remind players...

Oh, I know, but I still quite heavily support 3-color decks, so a CC drop is actually a real pain.

???

Noooooo, why did it have to be BB?

After a long hiatus I readded some to my cube because they play well. I now have the checkmark cards in the boosters, and the flip cards open in the middle of the table. There's a lot of room in the middle of the table since I cut the ULD ;)

So... Guessing, based on timezones... Grillo is from the US, Kirblinx is from Australia, Melty is from ehm... Lithuania (darn, there isn't really an obvious pick in this timezone!), Aston is from the UK! How did I do?

I did not like the name megemorph, but as a mechanic it was pretty decent.

Evolve and graft don't work together as neatly as you might think, because evolve has an intervening if clause. For example, if you cast a 2/2 into Experiment Two, evolve won't trigger, but graft will. So you move a +1/+1 counter from Experiment Two onto the 1/1 (making it a 3/3 and Experiment...

Wooooooooooo! Get into my cube!

Alas, no time to test. Priest of the Cursed Flame it is! Shadow Servant seems a bit too "Oops I killed you" for my liking. Basically it's a black crossover between Carrion Feeder and Lava Axe. Stoneforge Foundry interests me greatly, because I find it really hard to gauge how strong that card...

Hahaha, I remember the time I threw in Pack Rat because it was good support for the reanimator deck. This is exactly what happens though! People put it in a reanimator deck, play the Rat on turn 2, and then just ignore the rest of their library as they are making more rats. I mean, I guess you...

I agree. I laughed when I saw someone on mtgs lament that it was not a buff, muscle-bound dude, because "that's what werewolves are supposed to look like, you know, some races just look better as a man than as a woman!" Vampires should more often be woman according to the same poster... I guess...

Aw. That shouldn't go with a smily (unless you quit your job yourself because it sucked of course).

I think this was the first John Oliver thing I've seen, but he makes good points while interjecting some humor. I liked it :) I don't think I've seen the others you mentioned.

As debated in the cast, Experiment Two has some pretty serious grokkability issues. I like the card, but the counterintuitive interaction between both keywords is a bit of a let-down for me. I wanted to try the finalists out to see how they play to determine my vote, so I'll see if I have some...

I wish someone would do this for Wilders. Thanks John Oliver, that was entertaining!
