    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    i am looking for wedge and shard cards that have a similar mana requirement to Thopter Foundry Tasigur, the Golden Fang I’d like to have a cycle or 2 of these easy to use 3-color cards in my cube. Have any new ones released since the Alara and Tarkir blocks?

    Card/Deck Topdeck Matters: The Heart of the Cards

    Good morning lab maniacs! The Scry mechanic has always been really enjoyable for me and for others I’m sure. But when I started to make my Evolving Wilds cube, I got the hair of an idea to make a deck archetype that gave you a payoff for scrying and knowing what your next draw would be. The deck...

    yeah, i thought it was intentional and quite deftly crafted!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Riddleform Is this actually any good? I’m seeing a nice intersection of “spells matter” and “top card matters” and “fliers” for my cube, but am i wearing rose glasses here?

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    there has been a lot of top deck support in recent years! so a big update is happening on this cube: i’m downsizing it to focus on designing for 2-player dark draft and 4-player normal draft, with upsize modules that have nonbasic lands and multiplayer scaling cards. general themes i’m looking...

    the tempo hit is a really valid point. my cube tends to be a little slower, so he might have more value there, but then again maybe not. i think that burning prophet is just better overall though! definitely getting a wishlist together of all these nice new cards!

    i REALLY like pteramander and burning prophet. why are people so cool on Abbot? just too generic or...? personally i am very excited when i see him in a draft, but i may have some kind of bias?

    Do people still use Abbot of Keral Keep? Or are the more recent 2-drops in the posts above preferred now?

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    Draft report! Bwr Sac and Smack vs UGb Mill. Both decks won 1 and then we switched to anime for the night. Big all stars were: Tymaret and Blood Artist for Bwr Trepanation Blade and Consuming Aberration for UGb. Posting decklists as photos, hope that’s OK... MOD EDIT: Kirb here, just wanted...

    Sets [M21] M21 Previews!

    so many cool themes have been getting support while i’ve been gone! i love the “draw a second card” theme, but i kind of agree that Green doesn’t need it. if i ran it in my cube though... yeah i’d probably use it in RUG. and the theme that red caravan girl pushes is so nice for encouraging a fun...

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    Okay, after running a bunch of draft sims, there are some cards that just seem really awkward even in their “home deck.” So i’m hoping some cool stuff has printed since 2016 that maybe can fill these slots? Here’s my short list of cards to replace: Galvanoth - was supposed to tie together...

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    I have just returned to this forum after FOUR YEARS, and it is so good to see so many of the same people here! This cube turned up while I was cleaning out my basement last week. I have been drafting it on CT and did a couple IRL 2-player dark drafts... I can’t help but wonder how it could be...

    General Too Many Lands

    This is something I like about the Wilds method: you can easily throw in a singleton Lightning Bolt and Doom Blade for your UW Control Deck, but if you try to go ham with 5C Superfriends you find yourself staring at a hand full of amazing spells as your life total reaches 0. There's plenty of...

    Ooh hoo hoo that deck is DANK. I think you got the two biggest bombs in the cube there. I guess I never trained my bots to draft that one.

    General Too Many Lands

    I think my low-power list based loosely on INN is still on CT somewhere. Just search by user and you'll find my cubes, I have the same name over there as here. Having Wilds does favor slow decks, but turn 2 Aggro is a very real thing that wins games as long as you don't give control crazy tools...

    General Too Many Lands

    I've been running all-Evolving Wilds manabases in the last few cubes I've made, and it has played fantastic! It also pushes my formats in directions I want them to go, such as giving the format a ton of flavors of "the graveyard deck," making deck-shuffle effects relevant a la Legacy/Vintage...

    General Making control decks more interesting

    That is a fabulous set of packages. I applaud you, sigh. That's pretty much exactly what I'd want my R, U, and G sections to be doing in a high power cube with graveyard themes (i.e. Pretty much every cube I make to play). And you've pieced it all together and put a neat little bow on it. Thank...

    General Making control decks more interesting

    I have to wonder what effect running multiples of library would have on greens identity within an environment. It's in color pie for green (except the life pay), but it's such a rare sort of effect, especially at such a high quality (see foster, cream of the crop, etc) that having it be a common...
