I think the ten two-color cards are definitely a good place to start when putting together a disguise package for a low-power Cube. However, I think playing more is usually better for face-down creature environments. You probably want to play as many disguise cards as possible to maximize the...

This isn't actually how the common disguise creatures play in limited. At least as far as Karlov Manor is concerned, almost all of the two-color disguise creatures are playable in any deck with at least one of their colors, allowing each card to go into 7/10 possible two-color decks. The power...

The nice thing is that the Teaser usually contains the things that MaRo thinks will be the most exciting for players. Most of the things that were leaked and also in the teaser are pervasive themes of the set. I think this could be a banger!

MaRo posted his teaser game! So, before I get into speculation, I just want to go over the cards which we already know are in the set. This is the "outlaw" batch of Assassins, Mercenaries, Pirates Rogues, and Warlocks, as seen on At Knifepoint. This is probably the Mount mechanic, as seen on...

Ok, so I have some thoughts about Tarkir's world-building that you may find interesting. A lot of the cultures on Tarkir feel weird. While they have real-world inspirations, they aren't necessarily logical mirrors of their counterparts. Specifically: 1. The Abzan are supposed to be inspired by...

Too funny!

Here is my OTJ Bingo Card! Will I get a Bingo?

I think this card is very good. It would already be great if it cost {2} to cast. As-is I think it needs a little more support density in order to be a non-parasitic Cube inclusion, but I don’t think it’s too far off! Definitely watch this one for the future!

I also think Goose Mom is great on three— 3/3 flying draw a card seems like an insane rate, especially if you have other food producers in the Cube like Samwise Gamgee.

I mean sure, but what about that makes reusing a token that already exists stupid?

I think the card is pretty good. I have heard Goose Mother is worse than Hydroid Krasis when X is greater than 4, but it’s more useful in the earlier stages in the game.

Why is it stupid? A bit of diversity in tokens is fun.

That’s the same set of cards froggy posted yesterday.

Hjonk

I think Big Ounce has the same ability as Hardened Scales, just only on your turn. Additionally, it appears to get a +1/+1 counter at the end of each turn you cast a spell from anywhere other than your hand. Biggerton seems pretty dece!

Mfw the leaker doesn’t show the entire text of the Big Ounce card so I don’t get to know what it does:

Brushwaggs Return, this time as Tumblewaggs!

I feel like "good creatures make the game worse" is a reductive sentiment. While it is fair to argue that the improvement of creatures over time has made games faster, I think saying that this has somehow made the game worse is an extreme stretch.

Out of curiosity, what were your top picks?
