    Blacksmithy's Cube

    I'll humor you with a few more drafts :) Sol Ring remains the most insane thing in your cube I think. It's probably better than the original moxen, and that says a lot. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/332140[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Iterative Analysis Ones 1 Land Tax 1 Sol Ring 1 Swords to Plowshares 1...

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    I can vouch for Clan Defiance. It's useful in the mid game, but downright ridiculous in the late game.

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    CubeTutor still doesn't respect the Recurring Nightmare!!! I have to admit though, this Golgari deck looks pretty sweeeeeeeeeet! www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/331796[/url]"] Ones 1 Elvish Mystic 1 Joraga Treespeaker 1 Warden of the First Tree Twos 1 Lotleth Troll 1 Reassembling Skeleton 1 Satyr...

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    If you have a sacrifice theme going I would opt for Falkenrath Aristocrat. It's also a faster clock, and I think appropriately powerful for your cube. Unburial Rites is awesome value, but Sculler is also really good. I'ld pull Mortify to be honest, which is just generic removal at the end of the...

    I suppose there's even less modern cards in powered cubes, because the average 360 doesn't even include moxen, black lotus, etc.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    This piqued my interest! Last 5 years is M11 and Scars of Mirrodin and up. I took a look at the 360 avarage cube over on cubetutor... Surprising results! "Only" 115 cards of the last five years (32%, which is still much, considering this game is over 20 years old), 245 older than five years...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Hmm... I'm wondering, say you want to play the ridiculous cards like Brimaz and Hero of Bladehold simply because playing with powerful cards is exhilarating. How do you build an interesting environment around that?

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    It's just a screen name, so I'm fine with you shortening it :) I think five is probably fine. Remember you're also running some rainbow lands, so you'll end up at around 60 lands. That's a good percentage I think. Fetch/shock/shock looks like a fine start, since those are good in every...

    It's a matter of time before CubeTutor won't pass Recurring Nightmare and Grave Titan this easily anymore. Behold this awesome 4-Color Wildfire concoction! Muzzio's Preparation on Brimaz makes sure the kitty survives all kinds of firestorms! Meow! www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/331511[/url]"]...

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    Like I said, five color-fixing lands per guild (plus some 5-color lands) ought to give you a playable mana-base. If your group is a bit like mine they will bemoan the enormous amount of mana-fixing floating around at first, but don't let that deter you. Explain that at a certain point, picking...

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    Immediate Action on Grave Titan obviously, because that card is not already powerful enough. This deck contains some filthy, filthy cards that I would not personally run in my cube, being Recurring Nightmare (which is just impossible to deal with) and Grave Titan (which hits at least twice as...

    General Fight Club

    No? I mean, I love Voracious Hatchling, and Chromanticore is a cool payoff for 5-color, if you support that archetype in your cube, but looking at your cube they are not going to be particularly powerful. Sudden Spoiling seems like an improved Fog / Smite entwine card, which is... okay-ish? I...

    Blacksmithy's Cube

    A few notes: Faith's Fetters Brainstorm Cyclonic Rift Vampire Nighthawk Goblin Heelcutter Flame Slash These cards should never ever disappoint, except maybe the Heelcutter in a non-aggressive deck, so I don't get why these are listed as bottom end, when more suspect cards (in my mind) like...

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    Deck looks lovely and focussed to be honest. Good job! (Given the parameters of a powered cube. I wouldn't want Wurmcoil Engine anywhere near my cube, for example.)

    Card/Deck Planeswalkers

    Are you saying not playing Kiora, Vraska and Ral make for a better environment? I actually like what those three planeswalkers bring to the table. None of them are overbearing the way the "best" planeswalkers are, though Kiora's ultimate is totally game-ending :)

    Card/Deck Planeswalkers

    I currently run (in a 450 cube): Liliana of the Veil Chandra, Pyromaster Garruk Wildspeaker Venser, the Sojourner Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas Vraska the Unseen Xenagos, the Reveler Ajani Vengeant Ooo, even less than FlowerSunRain! I do run a few powerful ones though, but have no problem cutting...

    If you're in the market for a Remove Soul // Pestermite (without the useful ability) split card, sure! I like the versatility, but I don't know how good it is.

    General Cutting cards people don't play

    Haha, yeah, that wasn't the reason. Basalt Monolith accellerated the top end of a ramp deck a bit too quick (who would have thought?). I wasn't entirely comfortable with a t3/t4 Elspeth, Sun's Champion or Karn Liberated going forward. In addition to that there was the 2-card combo with Wake...
