I hate Werewolf with a passion, because I'm always the Werewolf. I'm like a statistical anomaly when it comes to that game. Is One Night Ultimate Werewolf any better?

Takebacks are a regular feature on my cube nights, enough so that some of my regulars old-schoolers call it an Ebony Horse. As the most experienced player I often find myself asking things like "Ok, I block your 2/2 with my 3/3. Did you mean to attack with that or did you miss the 3/3?" If they...

I miss the old legend rules. No, not that one. The old old rules. Do you hear that? It's Lin Sivvi. Turning in her grave because of the new legend rule. There can only be one!

Assuming Magic Origins has +1/+1 counters, the 3/2 will get a counter if the set is already on the battlefield. That won't be possible for a few more months though, and it might very well be that Magic Origins doesn't have any +1/+1 counters at all, in which case the 3/2 will never trigger off...

No, in the summer set. She's in the last core set. Also, that definitely isn't a triggered ability.

Yay! A second Doran for my cube! Now it really becomes a build around subtheme :D What's up with all the CC two-drops. Those are horrible for cube!

Green. And had he named the correct color, the entire spell would have been countered, including the mana ramp. That would have been brutal!

When I first read safra's post, I read "side decks", maybe that happened to Rasmus as well? I really had to look twice. But yeah, barely remembered sick decks are awesome. I used to run a Static Orb / Opposition deck in Invasion / Odyssey standard. Ran only 16 land, never any mana problems...

I'm glad damage on the stack is gone. That moment your opponent who is new at Magic realizes you just rules-lawyered him and he is going to lose the game because of some arcane rule? Yeah, been there, can do without it. I didn't have any problems with playing with damage on the stack myself...

So far I like Daretti, he was really good in a Grixis build someone ran in my first silent auction with the new (well, not anymore, really, but it was then) cube.

To be fair, the effect is far better in green than it is in red, which already offers haste on a lot of its more cubable creatures.

Yeah, sure, those are better removal spells, but they don't have a secondary use! This on a Mulldrifter or a Skinrender, for example, is insane, and Narcolepsy can never have that upside!

This is... an awesome removal spell! Basically this reads "Enchanted creature can't attack" for {1}{u}, but in addition it's awesome on your own creatures with etb creatures or sac outlets!

Actually, as uninspired as it may seem, I think Boomerang to Smithereen is excellent at what it does. It's two modes that pressure an opponent combined into one card. It's a tempo deck's dream card.

Well, yeah, but it's a 3-mana bounce spell, those are supposed to provide value, even more so if they're gold. See: Recoil. :) Anything would be great if it cycled.

Why would I hate that? It's basically Blightning in another color :)

I sometimes forget most people don't run 13 guild cards :) Uh, yeah, it's certainly not in the top 5 Rakdos cards or anything, but it is very versatile, and will be relevant almost any game it gets cast.

In cube this card is all sorts of amazing though.
