Sun Titan Goblin Welder Eternal Witness Trading Post Academy Ruins Yeah, there is a varying degree of randomness to the card. Some people are better at using it. I think that's a good thing, since someone who is decent at using it can be really excited when it comes around to them. It's also...

Yeah, it's definitely a personal preference thing. I do wish it had less variance, but people enjoy it in my cube specifically because of the physical actions it requires, which can be exciting. Honestly though, it's at a very reasonable power level. A colorless Vindicate (that can easily be...

The Giver XUUU Creature - Human Delve When ~ enters the battlefield, target opponent puts the top X cards of his library into his graveyard. 2/2

Is it really worse? Triple fixing > harder to cycle?

Gaining hexproof would cause the effect to fizzle since the target is no longer legal. Similar to this card: Ranger's Guile

This is why I thought it would be neat if they printed some morph cards that take this problem into account. For example: GGG Morph G When this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability, turn it face up. Hexproof 3/3

I see your point, though Stoke isn't truly unconditional either. EDIT: yeah what if they have TROMOKRATIS then what EDIT2: I mean as long as people think Oust is cool I think it's a reasonable include. I know it's not the same, but I do think the overall power level is comparable.

Hm, I had no idea it was a reprint. I didn't get to draft much of original Rav. It's no StP, but since people have been raving about Stoke the Flames, I figured it must be strong enough.

Devouring Light OK so this card is just nuts in M15 draft. I haven't really seen many people talking about it for cube, but honestly it's serious business.

I've enjoyed it. It's still a craw wurm even if its imprint is gone, which isn't nothing. It's pretty strong when it's craw wurm plus thing. It's worse than battlesphere but good enough, I think; it can be a fun card. EDIT: I still can't believe how goofy battlesphere is. It's been a while...

God damn I love this discussion. It's like you're inside my head! This sums up nicely how I feel towards games today. Video games are notoriously terrible at telling a good story. Unfortunately, a lot of the "classics" that became famous because of their story just don't hold up for me...

I was thinking last night about the decision to use 15 card packs and how arbitrary that is. Indeed, when you take into account that even retail limited only really uses 14-card packs, it makes even less sense. I'm going to pull a number out of my ass and say that on average the last 2 cards in...

derp I mostly agree with this, though they do still nail it occasionally. Hinterland Harbor is nice.

It's like they simply reversed the previous one. Sorin, Lord of Innistrad +1 make a dude, lifelink -2 help the team Sorin, Solemn Visitor +1 help the team, lifelink -2 make a dude The new one seems less elegant, though. It's better to want to + before wanting to - , which the former...

I've been trying Phyrexian Obliterator, and people like it. Also Dark Ritual, Erebos, Oubliette, Massacre Wurm, Nightveil Specter.

I run Jwar Isle, and it seems like the ideal power level to me. I'd like to try the other at some point. The standard cost for Spectral Procession is totally 2WW.

My personal favorite card: Mishra's Factory I still remember playing against this for the first time in one of the first ever magic tournaments I went to (circa 1995). I was like, "wait a second, whoah whoah...it's a land AND A CREATURE!?" It completely blew my mind. Throw in the fact...

I wasn't trying to make a power-level comparison, I was just pointing out that it falls into a category of cards where the benefits are little to nothing at first but add up over time. I agree that Greed is a better example power-level wise. Some of us do play with Erebos, God of the Dead. In...

Yah I would hesitate to put it into a more direct aggro deck. I feel like it belongs in midrange. Though, Experiment One is decent in midrange, right? I imagine he can get pretty large.

This I'd like to defend Ion Storm a bit. It does sound terrible when you say that it costs 3RR and a +1/+1 counter to do 2 damage, but I think that's a bit misleading. It's a long-term effect that gives you incremental gains throughout the game. That's like saying that Phyrexian Arena costs...
