i was happy to be spared the full chris taylor wrath <3

This card does have pretty funky templating in its oracle text: "Whenever a player puts a nontoken creature onto the battlefield" instead of "Whenever a nontoken creature enters, that creature's controller etc". Weird! I guess it preserves the original wording's intent.

I feel bad that I don't have a sexier answer than Satyr Wayfinder but it really is a perfect card. Could have been the most boring thing imaginable but some absolute genius decided to end it with "graveyard" instead of "bottom of your library in any order". So many awesome hooks with this guy...

the problem with trying to curate old border cube with the new cards but still maintain the "vibe" is that most people are pretty bad at determining vibe haha. ive seen so many lists that claim to do this and then you open a pack and it's got feldon of the third path in it or something.

I can confirm that Mirror Entity is stupid in limited-styled cubes and not a payoff for anything besides having a bunch of cardboard in play lol.

i have unfortunately been using the internet since i was a child in 2003 and i am stuck like this

Also my god I have never seen Cogwork Librarian more in his element. The irl roto is where that guy belongs. People picking it up like every time it gets put down, tossing it back onto the table later and making a big play like a chekhov's gun going off. So fucking cool. I'm so happy we decided...

Hi! Haven't been posting in this thread very much because I am pretty happy with where this cube is at and I've been focusing on other projects. I still make some swaps here and there when things are too shit or too good or fucking lame, but I don't think I am ever gonna make a sweeping change...

I've also gone down the "thinking about Pandemonium+Saproling Burst" road but I think the problem is just that when you cast Saproling Burst the game is almost always over anyway, which I think applies to a lot of cards that "combo" with Pandemonium.

boot is right I always come crawling back to splitter after cutting it

Wow Zombie Infestation rocks I might have to try that card. Some other cool weird stuff in this lane: stormbindhermit druidpatrol houndsterravore

I think we are at a point where curating an "old border" cube is a pretty different project than curating a cube that actually exclusively uses old cards. They have done so many old border reprints of new designs and so many of them are extremely powerful cards, that the card pool you are...

I think it isn't really that hard to understand, especially if you are a Magic player and read Magic cards all day, but if you barely think about Magic like most of the people I play with, the phrase "but not more than the toughness of the creature or the life total of the player Drain Life...
