    I’ve used Facebook groups for selling high value cards over the last year with some success. Serialised cards appear there from time to time. I’ve used a UK based group to avoid international shipping, but other groups are available.

    This is intriguing. Please can you share where can I read/hear this report? Thanks.

    Thrive would probably not be printable in an actual set: if it didn't break standard it would probably break an eternal format. In cube it seems like an excellent way to explicitly support token decks, with the occasional opportunity to do something absurd.

    Boros Charm is great for protecting your creatures from Wraths when you have overcommitted to the battlefield. Firemane Avenger is a lower powered card that clearly signals a go-wide aggressive strategy. Lorehold Command is a bit over-costed but can add to the board and pump your team. Not as...

    I like Cryptid as a creature type. The idea that the multiverse, with a plethora of bizarre creatures that may live in your neighbourhood, might also have yet stranger creatures whose existence is unsubstantiated, is very evocative. Old One Eye becoming a creature wit lots of eyes is funny...

    There are two 3s in the collector number on the paper version :cool:

    Ring may well be better despite the echo because it comes down a turn earlier, which can be crucial against faster decks. Both are showing their age against modern creatures, though.

    So the answer to my question "should I run card A or card B" is "run card A, card B and card C".

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I don't think the card is strong enough to fit in my cube, despite touching on the discard, graveyard and land themes represented in green. The pen, ink and watercolour art is charming, though, and reminds me of fantasy art styles that were more prevalent when I was young. I love how the card...

    Hardened Scales Ozolith, the shattered spire One can enable itself and be cycled away when it's not needed, the other is one mana cheaper and has less text. Two cards enter, one card leaves. FIGHT!

    If the cube gives me tools to enable threshold I’d want Grizzly Fate. Otherwise Beast Attack.

    What about Necrophage, which refers to feeding on the flesh of carrion or other animals that are already dead. This is based more on knowledge of Ancient Greek than English, but the point stands.

    General New Spell Type: Chorus

    I don’t mind the mechanic: it reminds me a bit of the kindle spells in Coldsnap. I like how the spells will scale up as the game goes on. Getting sufficient density for it to be worthwhile might be difficult in cube.

    General New Spell Type: Chorus

    If I’ve understood correctly, you would just need to use dice or tokens to keep track of your current intensity level. The only issue is keeping it clear which of your dice is for intensity, poison, experience, energy, life, etc. Isn’t it a subtype rather than spell type?

    The only other card I’m looking at from LCI. that has a showcase version is Malcolm, Alluring Scoundrel. The regular art is fine if a little generic. I’m not sold on the showcase version though. The card isn’t too expensive so I may get one of each and see how they look f real. This article has...

    Thanks folks! In my heart I knew that the normal version was the better choice (his posture l very unnatural in the showcase version) but sometimes it helps to have my thoughts confirmed. It’s a shame, as I’ve been enjoying a lot of the showcase treatments in recent sets.

    Which Inti do people prefer? I like the showcase frame, but the standard frame version has nicer art.

    I want to sacrifice the vampire tokens to the Bombardiers, because then they really will be canonized.
