    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    they’re fine. can beat in a bit early but make nice top decks outside of the “need a bomb now or i lose” topdeck scenario. both are also nice in wildfire decks- let them go off once or twice then hit wildfire

    Simplicity Cube

    one more thing after doing a couple more drafts... Spellbreaker Behemoth This card seems out of place. very opponent-specific text that’s usually trinket text. i assume what you’re trying to signal is a Ferocious/Stompy archetype? here are some suggestions: Gruul Ragebeast Mina and Denn...

    Simplicity Cube

    just did a draft and i think you’re really onto something here. with the Beginner version that is. cards are simple but don’t feel weak. i was able to dip into an archetype without having to put my draft on rails. fixing was just plentiful enough to consider splashing a third color. there...

    General Fight Club

    yeah i would KILL for a reprint/alter of Thought Scour that didn’t feature a screaming flayed head on it. even something more abstract or weird like Traumatic Visions Thought Scour is just gross. I want my cube to be pretty.

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    so that’s a great question, and it brings up something that i discovered as i developed the cube and did a lot of test drafts. i started out running 40 wilds. but, as i added more cool nonbasic lands to the ULD, i noticed a problem: i was ending up with more, or almost as many, wilds vs basics...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    i haven’t tried it but... outside a cube that has plenty of flippable cards? i think most of my cards in hand will be better than a free 2/2. maybe if i’m flooding?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    He’s extremely difficult to remove outside of exile/sacrifice effects and beats for 3 as a 2-drop, plus his discard outlet effect is almost completely unique in White. Most of the time your optimal play on defense against him is simply to let him swing in until you have an X/4 blocker. That...

    General [ZNR] Zendikar Rising Spoilers

    I want to echo Jericho’s sentiment that you can just double or triple up on the Bx bouncelands to maintain your environment. That sounds heckin cool. Also agree with Onder about how to evaluate these land DFC’s. They are so efficient for your deck construction needs!

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    For white, I see three creatures missing that would all be a high recommend for me: Adorned Pouncer Seasoned Hallowblade Soulfire Grand Master And for red: Tuktuk the Explorer Kari Zev, Skyship Raider Splinter Twin

    General Casual Format: Wife Pleaser (Working Title)

    Congratulations! My wife and i rebuilt our cube when we had our third. Best wishes to all of you! Also, we did custom Jumpstarts made from our cube cards and enjoyed that quite a lot. Somewhat similar to your concept, but i like the “all the spells are at the bottom” clause in yours!

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Yeah Lighthouse change is fine. For the discard lands, yeah i agree the concept of busy marketplaces is a cool theme. Just some off the cuff ideas: WU: Company Harbor (like East India Company) UB: Underground Speakeasy BR: Bizarre Bazaar RG: Trader’s Outpost GW: Produce Market ...i’ll edit this...

    Jericho, this is lovely. If you want to know what I think about the lands that have seen multiple versions... -i like both arts of Choked River, but the one with the boat in it tells a funny story so that’s a winner for me. -The UR land WOULD be the lighthouse for me except that i like the...

    the more i think about these, the more i want to run both cycles alongside fetches for the ultimate “Lands and Graveyards Matter” environment-supporting manabase. imagine the VALUE

    General Landfall and Landfall Aggro

    Blue can actually support a landfall deck with some interesting options to move into aggro-control:

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Haakon lands are my favorite. i just counted about 5 cards in white that can get the Wx ones into the yard. rules question; can i play one via Rampant Growth? EDIT: they need to have basic land types for cards like Abolish

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    it’s good. it’s no Bonesplitter but it’s good. better in a fetch or bounceland environment where you can get more landfall triggers. EDIT: i would say that if you are running Steppe Lynx and Red Steppe Lynx, you would also want to run this.

    General Fight Club

    every time i’ve seen Sublime Epiphany cast in a game, the caster won about 3 turns later. it’s a control finisher in disguise. such a great card. i don’t run Cryptic because it’s 1UUU and i like my cards to be splashable as much as possible. EDIT: the reason for that is because i want decks in...
