See link in my sig. The colors will be different, but the composition and power level of the cube should be fairly comparable. Edit: Also, number four: Edit2: This should probably be a sorcery? Or more expensive?

Is this too good?

Fuse is awesome :) I have to get a little more creative too with the other options, there aren't really a lot of options that make sense when fused. It's time for some real customs methinks!

Looking for awesome cards for my gold cube ("soon" to turn {w}{u}{b}{g}{r}) I came across the split cards and though, what if... what if I mixed these up and shuffled them around... and gave them fuse. Would that be cool? Then I though, why does it have to be split cards? I can also put normal...

I like the explanations, but any aggressive deck usually has room for more intricacies than the archetype usually gets credits for.

Sheesh, how could I forget Military Intelligence, that's even in my cube :oops:

What do you hate about it?

Coastal Piracy But that's just downright inferior to Bident of Thassa. Aqueous Form Sigil of Sleep Mirror Mockery Ordeal of Thassa I think that's about it? Blue isn't really about attacking...

Meh, you bunch of old curmudgeons. Innovation doesn't just become unoriginal when it's based on previous ideas.

Haha, that deck looks so bad on paper. Love it :)

Then how about... Both players begin with 7. The player going second starts with a Gold token in play. Starting player gets to scry 2 before the first draw step.

I love interactions like that, but it certainly is loophole-y :) Sweet!

You share that aim with many Riptiders. That's why you usually won't see things like Wurmcoil Engine or Grave Titan in our cubes. I agree that obvious picks make drafts less interesting. I don't think that has anything to do with the size of your cube. It has everything to do with the cards you...

You didn't answer my main question: @Worldknit: Well, the point is that, if you run a cube larger than 360, you're not going to see a specific card every time. In my 450 cube, a singleton card would show up in 80% of the drafts, not 100%. Now, you might feel that that's too much, but I would...

So... If I understand correctly, you have a 720 cube because you want to arrive at ~23 playables after a draft? ... First, why do you think you need 720 to arrive at ~23 playables? You can arrive at the same ratio of playables in a 450 cube. More importantly however, in my mind more playables...

I think you're putting too much emphasis on the stock 360 list. Riptiders are notorious for not having average cubes, there's a lot of experimentation here (including your cube), and there's not a lot of cubes on this forum adhering to the power max philosophy, meaning there's room for cards...

I have no words :)

360*360/1080 = 120, or 66% fresh cards between drafts. Yeah, that's insane, no theme will hold at that size. Edit: Also, the impact will be even greater if you regularly draft with fewer people. 6 drafters, 450 cube: k = Kn/N = 270*270/450 = 162, or 40% new cards between drafts! 6 drafter...

Rise was truly awesome, and a breath of fresh air especially after the cutthroat speed and goldfish mechanic (landfall) of Zendikar.

I used to have a 360, and didn't mind it myself, but I expanded to 450 to add a little variance. I don't think you need to go much bigger though for variance's sake, but let's see what statistics (link) say! If we rewrite the following formula, whe should be able to calculate the (average)...
