    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    What do you guys think of effects like Stone Rain/Ice Storm? My play group was whining about basic land destruction spells so I removed them, but I kind of miss them, personally.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Well, my thought is that the most feel bad Stone Rain can be is "lose a land when you're already screwed for mana." It also allows this card to be a tiny bit stronger later in the game than Stone Rain, which is an upside for the card IMO.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    A less feel-bad replacement for Stone Rain: 2R, Sorcery Destroy target land. Its controller reveals cards from the top of his/her library until a land is revealed. Put the land on top of that player's library and put the other revealed cards into his/her graveyard. Or, alternatively, a...

    General Unpopular Fun/Effective Cards in Your Cube

    In the vein of Laz's suggestion of Magnetic Theft, I would imagine that Enchantment Alteration would be pretty busted in your cube. I once 4-for-1'd someone during a Saga modo draft with that card. I had two creatures on the ground and my opponent was attacking with a flyer and a creature with...

    Setessan Tactics is very cool. I think that will end up in my cube.

    I'm continually looking for new cards to exploit for the sake of keeping things fresh and interesting. When I look through people's cube lists I always find a bunch of new cards that I never would have thought to consider. Here are some unusual cards in my cube that have been interesting...

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    I noticed that on your List page you have Brood of Cockroaches at the top of the 1 cost creatures. Is that a custom change? Also, how has that been for you? I can't decide whether to include that card or simply double up on Reassembling Skeleton.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I recently added Forgotten Ancient to my cube, and people seem to be enjoying it. Goes nicely with Persist, of course. Also, I've been toying with cards like Preacher and Old Man of the Sea as part of the "sacrifice effect" theme. What do you guys think of Undercity Informer? Too poisonous?

    That's great news. I look forward to trying it tomorrow.

    General Breaking Singleton

    So, I'm about to experiment with "draft one copy: receive multiple copies." Some players in my group complain about the boredom of seeing a selection of mostly-vanilla aggro creatures to choose from in a pack, but I still want aggro to be a thing (and I want it be competitive, also). Would...
