I can tell you when something doesn't work but that's usually because I broke it

Codex Shredder Considering this as a 'cog' with a unique effect that fuels graveyard synergies and late-game loops in control decks. How low does your power level have to be to make this a 'real' card?

The PT is tomorrow and I'm excited to see if Standard is more diverse than advertised so far as I'm playing two GPs and a RPTQ in this format. The guys I know who are going haven't found anything good other than the obvious UWR Saheeli and BG decks (not I was expecting them to lol). Things...

I still love Into the Roil: it's a clean and effective example of a nuts-and-bolts card blue needs to have. It's fine in any blue deck and you need a certain number of cards like that. Rift is amazing at creating memorable games: it's often one of the few cards in Magic (or the only card in a...

Sounds like you're whispering shade at every Peasant cube ever Sram is kinda intriguing. The problem with Aura or equipment (or Vehicle tbh) subthemes is that they are too shallow individually; between them you can muster ~15 solid cards that trigger Sram, but you can't play too many because...

I didn't write 1700 words in my thread in response to a normal comment in another subforum, no :p I find those starts amusing but YMMV

c/p from my thread:

Next on the docket are mini-primers for various archetypes I want to explore. The 'artifact deck' is a big one, but first: +1/+1 Counters

There are a few self-contained Energy cards that are interesting - namely Aethergeode Miner - but the most appealing ones to me are the unique effects offered by Dynavolt Tower and Aetherworks Marvel* which both require a lot more support than you can reasonably give *Though with Marvel you...

More free time now so lots of Magic posts/writing on the agenda! First up: 2016 Cube Review: - Oath of the Gatewatch was incredibly influential for Constructed and solid for Cube too. The big question is whether you want to include the colourless/Eldrazi cards or even acknowledge their...

I just hope I can finally justify running Arcbound Ravager

2016 Magic Review: The Magic year started with me trying to prepare for the Pro Tour. I was juggling academic commitments and personal stuff and wasn't quite sure how to prepare: to adapt a Rumsfeldism that's actually pretty insightful, I didn't know how much I didn't know. First, though, I...

He mentions a list of cards it doesn't hit in the article, and that list includes Wurmcoil Engine (forgot about Primeval Titan but w/e). I'm not sure what more you want from him. Even if he were just trying to hype up a card (true of some authors on some sites but I think PV's record doesn't...

I liked the Christmas episode and thought The Waldo Moment/Men Against Fire were pretty bad

Genius update: https://twitter.com/Lampalot/status/815011025539964928 it only takes one infected agent to cause an epidemic and TG is addictive af

Arcane Savant is the strongest Cube creature ever, IMO

There's a fun parallel world in which energy has been evergreen since Alpha

Am I missing something with Yahenni? Indestructibility is fine but worse than Cartel Aristocrat's ability a lot of the time. If you're setting up a Blasphemous Act or something it can be sweet but I'd wager Husk is more threatening in general.
