Ok, lemme try spinning one up with my list. Hope it doesn't come up with something too embarrassing Bloodbraid Elf Scorched Rusalka Alesha, Who Smiles At Death Rune-Scarred Demon Wake Thrasher Kitchen Finks Anger of the Gods Compulsive Research Fleshbag Marauder Molten Vortex Bloodstained Mire...

Yeah, Restoration Angel seems head and shoulders above the other choices, though this is a really strong pack overall. Both of those planeswalkers would merit consideration if this were p2p1 and you were already solidified in an archetype, but it seems too early to jump on those trains pack one...

I think you're just pining for more Aleksi Briclot artwork... which, to be fair, I am, too. After his illustrations for the original Lorwyn Five, almost all of the planeswalker art that followed hasn't lived up to those lofty standards. What I like most about his style is that it resembles an...

Super excited about Eldrazi scions. The spawn tokens had a surprising amount of impact last time around as 0/1's, and giving them an upgrade in power while still letting them sacrifice at will for mana (!) is huge. Reeeeeaaaaallllly hope there's a draft sac theme supported in at least two of the...

Great idea, love it! Mulldrifter and Aetherling stand out the most to me in terms of raw power level. The latter puts you pretty far into a blue control deck, whereas the former has some flexibility as a control, midrange, or blink enabler. Also, I feel like Aetherling is more replaceable -...

Far // Away vs. Silumgar's Command

My secret hope is that they'll one day change what the keyword 'protection' means entirely, and maybe limit it to just the hexproof-from-colours part. I don't think that can ever happen, though, otherwise they probably would've fixed regeneration by now.

Is that a rare? If it is, it seems way worse than Talus Paladin :(

I run Niveous Wisps! My playgroup makes fun of me for it, but just wait till I blow them out with it...

Green Sun's Zenith vs. Chord of Calling

Oh, also, all the spambots seem to be of the female persuasion, and they're totally helping to balance the skewed gender ratio here. At this rate we're on track to be 50/50 by 2019.

I've tried making the sign-up questions harder and harder, but to no avail. These spambots clearly play Magic. Pretty soon I'll have to amp up the questions some more. "You have an Opalescence and a Humility in play. Describe in 100 words or less what happens."

If you're asking if more than 50% of the Treasure Cruises cast here have been for {U}, then yes, I'm quite certain that was the case. Blue tem- uh, aggro disruptive control something something was the best deck around here for a while, and Cruise played no small part in that. It was exactly this...

I would say the median Cruise was :u: and the mean Cruise was :1::u:

I cut Treasure Cruise because it was certifiably insane in the tempo and aggro decks here - U/R Delver did not need the extra help - and swapped Ancestral Vision back in as a "fairer" one-mana draw-three. Dig Through Time has been similarly powerful, but as it's better suited to control lists...

I really want to give Gifts Ungiven a try... anyone got any good sample Gifts piles?

As LSV likes to say, to him the Holiday cube is like ice cream - great as a treat once in a while, but probably not something that you would want as a main course. (Or is it?!) From my own experience, playing a "broken" cube with powerful interactions that are difficult to answer does make for...

The number of times I Ponder, see three cards I don't want, and throw them back is substantial - not quite 50%, but also closer to that than I would've guessed when I first tossed it in. I think some folks might be underestimating how good the "scry ALL of these cards away" option is, as well as...

Priest of the Blood Rite vs. Sidisi, Undead Vizier

I've always thought that Ponder is better in combo and synergy decks, where you're looking for a specific card to break the game wide open, and being able to dig up to four cards deep for {U} is a heckuva deal. Meanwhile, Preordain tends to be better in straight value decks or leaner decks with...
