That's what I'm asking: given that I want a certain amount of fetchlands and rough parity between the manafixing available to each colour, which colour pairs get landed with the fetches? Can RG 'afford' to have another Wooded Foothills over another Stomping Ground in order to make WR's mana...

Constructed thread is that way <----- ------> <(-_-)>

Lucas: Green has ramp/fixing, Blue has card draw/manipulation to find lands. R/W generally wants to curve out as fast as possible, so it can't afford to wait to draw the colour it needs; B/W suffers because black and white both tend to have stringent mana requirements. If I remove stuff like...

I doubt it, but Doranthem is a more fun card.

It seems like the shock helps that specific colour pair more, whereas the fetch helps every other colour pair more.

This is a question for my Cube, but I know other people run similar setups and I'm curious to hear your thoughts. At the moment I have the 20 fetches/20 [duals/shocks] configuration, supplemented with a variety of lands for each colour pair (some filters, some manlands, some bouncelands, etc)...

Doranthem seems much more fulfilling if it actually pumps your guys as well. You could get away with it at 1GW though for +0/+1 and the P/T damage switch.

Blue doesn't have much in the way of sacrifice effects, but someone tell that to Barrin.

I like it! If only Doran were easier to cast...

Technically this deck only 1-0ed thanks to time constraints but it's sweet and this is the first time my cube's been drafted irl in months, so deal. Yes, after years of mocking the Gravecrawler-Griselbrand menace, we can laugh no more. Decklist in case the pic's unclear:

Comp Sci?! nerrrrrrds everyone knows the cool kids do Philosophy/Pol Sci ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ

I think Thoughtseize is probably a good card to have in Modern, on balance. It actually makes it easier to allow a diversity of decks in the format: your fair deck now has a way to handle Karn Liberated and Desperate Ritual and Cryptic Command etc. without spreading itself too thin, so the...

For a game designer, Kibler says a lot of silly things.

He looks so happy to be here! Cascade is so much more fun in Cube than in Constructed.

It's giving too much credit to filter lands to say that they make mana 'too good'. You can't build your deck around the starts that filter lands enable because when you don't draw your one Rugged Prairie your R-WW-1RR curve looks really awkward. I'd also reject the 'too few...; too many...'...

^YES The Extended season in 2010 was one of the most enjoyable formats ever, imo, and it would actually be kept in check a lot more by some of the cards printed since then (Abrupt Decay, Rest in Peace, Stony Silence as answers, not to mention Birthing Pod, Splinter Twin, Karn...). It's a shame...

I suggest Cookie Clicker

I'd rather have content about non-Magic games than no content at all. The worst that can happen is that people won't read it.

terrible, imo

wanna try an Epic Experiment?
