Yeah I knew I remembered it from some top 8 so I was wondering whether that was the case. And the format did have its issues and, if we look at it as a form of inspiration or guideline for where the game should go, a huge untranslatability problem that results from a decade (uf...) having passed...

I don't have anything to add except for a thank you for such a good breakdown of those wonderful Kamigawa-Ravnica years. The format had its issues, yes, and certainly some of its particularities are impossible to emulate nowadays: Japan's innovation that sweeped Worlds in 2005 seems to be...

Would that allow for a sort of crossover from an aggressive WB group of cards into a sort of niche WRB Enduring Ideal list? It's certainly tempting to imagine some kind of controlling game between things like Crippling Fatigue, Read the Bones (or Painful Truths) and the RB Talisman and, while I...

Thraben Doomsayer is very interesting and made me think of Minions' Murmurs as a way to refill your hand after dropping your cheap creatures while still advancing the life loss plan. Is this a real deck? Go-wide Suicide WB? The card advantage engines are certainly interesting: Pain Seer is a...

Can anyone report on the results? I can't see them without a twitter account...

(I haven't had any time to work on my cube but I still follow the forum daily.) I once saw an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras where there was a category open to all ages. So of course there was a 30-something year old competing with the young girls. She won. That was almost as ridiculous and...

Allright, so following up on my previous posts I decided to definitely, and now in full possession on valuable knowledge, try and define the archetypes for each color pair and shard. I decided to provide a better support for allied colour pairs and definitely guide people into drafting the...

It's a great bet. Adder-Staff Boggart is actually interesting because - since you know what's on top - you can choose whether to play it when you're sure you'll win the clash or not. But it gets even more interesting: since both players can choose whether to send that card to the bottom or keep...

The real question though is whether clash is finally the great mechanic it was always destined to be. Adder-Staff Boggart

So the actual tension of the emblem is, perhaps, wanting to keep a certain card on top of the library? So a simple Flamekin Harbinger searching for, whatever, Living Hive actually turns a bad tutor into a kinda reanimator strategy. And then you try to skip your draw step? :D

Hey dude, I'm glad you found my journey interesting; I felt very confused while putting everything together : D Yeah I hadn't made the official decision yet but I think that was inevitable. Maybe I was classifying it more as a role rather than an actual card-effects-thing since I don't know...

Allright, so this is a pretty lengthy post - and for that I excuse myself in advance - but after reading the thread that sigh recommended, and basically just thinking about it for a long time, I have arrived at a, possible, solution for two problems: Why are some themes not working? How to find...

Hey man, thanks for the quick reply. Yeah I wanted that every conceivable strategy was forced to deal with the fact that, at time, the board could be wiped. That they had to play with it instead of around it. I noticed that as well. It becomes an even bigger problem when I try to narrow the...

Hey everybody. This is my first post on a forum - I hope I'm doing everything right - that has already helped me a great deal with my cube. I'm always looking for different and original cubes; recently I had the idea of building a cube that would be drafted with a very particular set of...
