    Awesome! They should make that stuff mandatory in school! I started doing this a week ago, and it already makes me appreciate comments like yours more :)

    them's some positive thoughts! The world could use more people with your line of reasoning :)

    Kirblinx's MTGO Adventures + Sometimes Cube

    Yay! Congratulations! Yay! I got an untap symbol! I feel for Anton though. I have a player who consistently refuses to play more than 15 lands, 'because it always works out'. Well, he'll learn eventually! :)

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Oh man, you might have solved the removal "problem" in green, I would definitely keyword that! Tell me this does not totally look on color?! PS Also Naya Battlemage ;)

    Slovakattack's first cube attempt (Legacy-Lite?)

    Well, you're running Swords of X & Y, Opposition, Recurring Nightmare, Brimaz, and a lot of other cards that are very stronk, I don't think adding a few Ravnica bounces would be a problem. I do note the original duals are missing though. There is some great art out there for the online printings...

    Slovakattack's first cube attempt (Legacy-Lite?)

    I gave it a whirl, and have to say this looks much more cohesive, and your aggro decks a lot more playable! One worry though is that your fixing is still sub par. You might run 55 lands, but 14 (? quick count) of those don't fix, leaving you with only 41 fixing lands. I would say at 450, 50 is...

    Site News CFB Store Credit Contest: Design a Cube Card

    Aw, thanks! I did submit an entry though (through PM), and having to rate my own card would be awkward :)

    The Board Game Thread

    Oh, certainly. I mean, you do try to banish / defeat / acquire cards in the center row that would be interesting for your opponent, but not at the cost of your own deck. There are pretty good rewards for drafting synergies, so if I'm Mechana, for example, I'm going to buy that Mechana construct...

    Card/Deck The Gauntlet - Limited/Constructed Duel Decks

    I've been making decks like this for a few blocks, Innistrad, Return to Ravnica and Theros mostly, plus some theme decks. They're really cool to play as a change of pace. I think I used a somewhat different building blocks list: 24 land, 6 x 3 commons, 7 x 2 uncommons, and 4 x 1 rare. If...

    Onderzeeboot's Khans of Alara WUBGR Cube

    Well, this is one of the coolest decks I've drafted in a while! Naya control! I've been retooling green a bit, and added some support in all colors for colorless mana. Looking for a few final cuts, seeing if anything looks like it won't be picked or played all that much, and then I'll be...

    Ascension has very little player interaction, even less than Dominion actually, but I really like it anyway. It's a little lighter than Dominion, but the thing I like most about it is that it doesn't really matter what you or your opponent is doing, so you can chat away while you are playing...

    Does this look like a fun, aggro-oriented equipment?

    Alphez's first Cube! Suggestions are very welcome :)

    I currently run (edit: added Unstable Obelisk): pristine talisman seer's lantern unstable obelisk hedron archive hedron archive pyromancer's goggles Plus a Gem of Becoming & Obelisk of Grixis mashup. Of course the Goggles don't really count, and I'm looking for another spot to add another...

    The Board Game Thread

    Ok, I had to look up how the game is played. Seems pretty convoluted, but the level mechanic is actually a neat way to catch up, as the person on the back foot will level first and thus play his better cards at an earlier stage in the game. I swear though, I lose it every time I see a card game...

    Alphez's first Cube! Suggestions are very welcome :)

    I'm running only 3+ mana rocks in my cube (and not Worn Powerstone or Coalition Relic, which have a vastly different effect on the environment than two cmc rocks but still enable the artifact deck. Of course casting Daretti, Scrap Savant or Thopter Spy Network off a two cmc mana rock is way more...

    Card/Deck Astral Slide

    To be clear, I love the effect on Spirit Cairn, and making Lantern Kamis with every discard is a sweet effect, I just don't like the effect on a three mana do nothing card. Like, I would probably cube Lantern Bearer Creature - Spirit Whenever you discard a card, you may pay {w}. If you do, put...

    Card/Deck Astral Slide

    It's really odd for me to see Spirit Cairn hyped. I mean... Spirit Cairn {2}{w}{w} for one 1/1 flyer is a horrible, horrible deal. {2}{w}{w}{w} for two 1/1 flyers is still a horrible deal. {2}{w}{w}{w}{w} for three 1/1 flyers... Is still a horrible deal. {2}{w}{w}{w}{w}{w} for four 1/1...

    Slovakattack's first cube attempt (Legacy-Lite?)

    I'll let you in on a secret, don't tell anyone you got this from me, but these two reanimator spells are really, really sweet! necromancy Necromancy That's right, three mana is the sweet spot for reanimation spells in my mind, not too fast, not too slow, and this is the only playable option at...

    Card/Deck Astral Slide

    I think the difference between putting the tutored card in hand and putting it on top of your library (i.e. card parity vs card disadvantage) is real. It's definitely worth it if you're tutoring for crazy shit like Moat or Sword of Fire and Ice, but the less game-breaking your targets are, the...
