It strikes me as similar to onslaught analogues the symbiotic cycle. Much worse than the phantom or penumbra cycles. I'll remind you how rare good morphs are in cube and how little value a grey ogre has in most cube formats. (I think my point is unless you try to give it some cover with nantuko...

I'm very curious about what some niche cubers see in memory's journey. I find cards like that are useless at worst and very oppressive to niche strategies that work hard for their advantage at best and that there is usually very little room in between. I've always found cremate is a more fun card.

yeah i think the opalescence emblem idea is a bit ludicrous but I like enchantment and permanent themes bby.

I don't like 8+ drops usually. I guess 8 is usually okay though if you have a little reanimation. Don't just think of lands as a free eventuality of a reasonable game, those are 8 or more CARDS you are invested in playing this thing. How many of those does the average deck really need to have in...

I kinda feel like your cube is too big for the number of lands in it but maybe your land draft fixes everything.

Hey if you don't mind cheap answers that pick feels like the best Think Twice in the world. I guess there is more of a risk of decking! If you have a lot of 4cc spells in your deck 2 mana can be more of an impediment I guess.

Was thinking about cards for a format/set thinger but also for cube. Warp Wisp {2}{B} Creature - Elemental Horror Flying, deathtouch When Warp Wisp dies you lose 1 life and draw a card Evoke {B} 1/1 Warp Wisp {3}{B} Creature - Elemental Horror Flying, deathtouch When Warp Wisp enters the...

Rafiq seems like a hard question card like sower of temptation or wolfir silverback. It sorta just reminds me of voltron strategies really, and he doesn't do anything particularly cool with the naturally forming bant decks that already have a lot of well built creatures in the 4-5 slot. I'm...

You may wana draft more packs or more cards? Make this more like sealed. Or make your land draft supes good.

I made this once, I'm not entirely happy with her: Paranoid Edict {2}{W}{B} Sorcery Choose one - Each player sacrifices all creatures with power 3 or less; or each player sacrifices all creatures with power 4 or greater. You can make this card vastly different by including the 3 in both options.

Did you guys see this one: Grazing Grove Land Grazing Grove enters the battlefield tapped. {T}: Add {G} to your mana pool. When Grove enters the battlefield you may pay {2}{G}{G} to put a 3/3 beast creature token into play. Thinking of making a series, the raise dead one I made seems absurd...

Sick cube lands tell me how they turn out. This is what making your own format and making the rules is all about. Where did you get a handle on that super-magic-lookin art? Pirate Island Land Pirate Island enters the battlefield tapped. {T}: Add {U} to your mana pool. When Pirate Island...

@Jason I think we might be likely to see counter themes and stuff that is closer to what the eldrazi domain cube was like (maybe?) if they are making a set to be a draft hit. We may also see more crossover with the last one than you'd think. My main wonder is if they are going for hard sell...

whats the deal with multipicks like AK

On the subject of walls I'm kinda super shaky on those too because I find a lot of people have really bad times when they are being blanked by walls, so that's something to keep an eye on. I also find they are less interesting cards because they contribute very little to control and spells...

As long as I'm asking blunt questions to everyone: To the people who cube #Cabaltherapy what the heck is that about? You know what to call most of the time in your draft singleton format? Do you have a lot of hand peeking? Like do you guys play a million free sacrifices or something? I can see...

@Grillo How controlling would you say my list was? ; )

Yeah 2x in small cubes is enough to make an impact and not really put too much of a dent in other archetypes. You don't want to shoe horn people into delver, it doesn't work with everything the way zombies do, but they fit in a lot of places. Don't do this if you are running enchantment themes...

It actually kinda wasn't amazing! Like it was really nice being able to trade up all the time but I felt on the edge of my seat most games and like I couldn't spend all my mana, but couldn't cut down to 16 because of colour requirements. I could have a lot of good trades, I could keep seeing...

Starship Troopers has always been a favourite movie of mine for it's parody and embrace of jingoism but I find I am also really enjoying the novel for entirely different raisins.
