At the very least, ways to incentivize players to draft specifically the fetches that are for their pair of colors. Wastelands seem perfect for this, because when playing against them you do want on-color fetches and don't want off-color ones. Any sort of non-basic punisher would work well...

Even though cube tends toward singleton, most of the cards in a given deck don't vary that much from one another when compared to a format like Vintage, where you're talking about Mana Crypts and Force of Wills and Time Vaults. We've discussed before how Demonic Tutor is decidedly not close to...

Grillo just hates cards that draw 3 for {u}

She's like a white, baby Grave Titan.

I've always loved that card. People often seem hesitant to draft it, but I can't tell if it's because they're underestimating it or they're intimidated by it. Tricking people into giving you one of the cards they shouldn't is highly satisfying. I'm currently running Intuition instead, which...

Yes

I go through phases. I've been more pro-shitpost lately.

I'd try Twincast over Redirect.

Agreed. Happy to see that Ingest explains why Oblivion Sower looked so terrible at first.

Just picked up a copy. I'm going to give it a go this week.

OK so I think this sort of highlights the issue that I have had with certain curve-toppers. Inferno Titan is straight-up the main offender here IMO. I'd start by addressing the goodstuff cards that don't have a difficult color-requirement before getting too concerned with the fixing...

If anything, this would provide even more justification for Wastelands and non-basic removal spells. I'm in the camp of letting players have access to lots of fixing, and including tools to punish that strategy.

goblin welder + hammer of purphoros + faithless looting + draco = GGGGGGG

I've been considering Twilight Struggle because I need another good 2-player game (my friend refuses to play magic), and it has occupied the number 1 spot on boardgamegeek for some time now. Anyone have any experience with that one?

I do!

That card would be great with that cost. Here's my current ULD setup: http://www.cubetutor.com/viewsideboard/34

Ha, I run all three. Delver is double-squaded to increase build-around incentive. I'm surprised that people don't like the bear. He's been fine. You can't equip it but in blue aggro people tend to focus more on tempo anyway, at least over here. I might even try Frost Walker. I just added...

Stoke the Flames is definitely strongest, then the other two are at a very similar power level I think.

I'd definitely go with Verdict first, then Sculler. Sculler is such a groan-inducing card, in a good way. Plus it's a zombie and an artifact!

Though I agree with the general philosophy that's been suggested, I disagree on a few points. A. Gold cards shouldn't always be color-pair incentives. Sometimes it should be rewards. I would try to plan on having half or more than half be more open-ended incentives like Kiora, but you also...
