    General Fight Club

    Of those two I think Genesis Hydra squeaks it out, Vastwood Hydra isn't bad, but I think Reyhan, Last of the Abzan or even Penumbra Wurm pull off the effect better.

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    (Disclaimer: I tend to define beef as something usually at a 6+ cost) Absolutely agree with all of that, my only addition would be that the selection of your beef is vastly important to how you want your format to feel. I love Rise of Eldrazi but if there's one negative that can be given to it...

    The Video Game Thread

    So to follow up on this, because the android release for Legends of Runeterra just released at the end of April and I have been playing it a lot... Geeeeez this is a good mobile and good in general game. Some of my biggest gripes with Hearthstone were the fact that 1. Games take a long time 2...

    General Fight Club

    I do think evolving wilds|roe has the weakest art of those 4, and that partly may be due to the fact that the art was a decade ago, but evolving wilds|rix has the weakest flavor to me because it's less that the wilds are evolving, more that they're being shaped by the Sun Empire. Maybe it...

    General Exes Archetype

    To me I think playing one card for unbound flourishing and rosheen meanderer can be enough because they are a narrower (but more mana) seething song or geosurge that sticks to the board. Although if seething song would more consistently fit into someone's deck, maybe I should just play that...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    With my brief experience with making custom cards I agree with onderz. I can see where Ravnic is coming from because yes we could finally get that red 1 mana 2/1 without trinket text BUT will that card play well in our environment? Should I make the card's tribe relevant? Should I then bring in...

    GBS

    Yeah that's been me these past few days as well, cracking away at MTG and trying to figure out how the heck to mod Dwarf Fortress without it crashing, but homework and social relationships have been "eh". I think it is always good to be mindfully aware of these activities, and while I quite...

    General (IKO & C20) Testing/Includes Thread

    I'm testing almost half of the mutate cards, but I do not know if all of them will stay. Since my Cube is very small I have a close ASFAN to how many mutate cards are in Ikoria so I'm testing that to see if it'll make a huge difference. I'm not going to list all of them, but I will put the ones...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I've been testing them, they work pretty well at around a Peasant power level, I think these ones will likely stay Teyo, the Shieldmage Kasmina, enigmatic Mentor Davriel, Rogue Shadowmage Tibalt, Rakish Instigator Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter Not that the other ones were bad, I just don't want that...

    Sets [IKO] Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths

    Man I completely missed that Eerie Ultimatum was permanents and not just creatures haha But at the same time, I rarely see many planeswalkers in these colors, although I don't play Elspeth, Sun's Nemesis, or Garruk, Cursed Huntsman so I could see it fetching those. Eerie could also be a sweet...

    Sets [IKO] Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths

    Ah so flipping cool, if the draft experience is good enough I'm seriously going to consider making my first set cube. Also, on topic Fight Club vs. Assume that drafters are familiar with mutate and there's not much confusion.

    General Alternate Draft Idea - Playset Draft

    My current in progress cube uses something similar to this to keep durdly decks from happening, but I've found that 4 of a card is way too much for a 40 card deck (especially if the card you chose is something super efficient like ponder or lightning bolt). That's just due to math when compared...

    Sets [IKO] Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths

    I ain't missing out on rules clarifications and Giant Adephage (I know that's a lot of rules baggage, but my players love Grusilda, Monster Masher so we'll probably be fine) And yes all of these keyword token cards are probably going straight into any cube I make.

    Sets [IKO] Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths

    Jaegers aren't until Return to Ikoria six to seven years from now, if or when the set does well ;) Also I would completely play Back for More if I had a Golgari section... maybe I should go back to wedge colors... but I've already changed my colors based on this thread like six different...

    Sets [IKO] Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths

    I was holding out hope for this and it turns out that the mad lads of the Riptide Lab were right! Now that I can get my thoughts on forum, this is basically MTG: Kaijudo Duel Masters, which is a great game! But I kind of hate its combat and spells when compared to the very rich Magic: the...

    Sets Ikoria Inquiry

    I'm down for all of that, I would also hope that we can give any creature these counters like recycla-bird and not just a creature with mutate. That would open up a lot of design space, especially giving green more trample. On topic, Godzilla isn't legendary because godzilla is a species not a...

    Sets Ikoria Inquiry

    Unfortunate, but makes sense. It would be hard to convince my friends to do a booster box at this time anyway "Yes, while huddling close together we open cards from a booster, observing, breathing, touching, and laughing on them, then we pass them to the person to our left." "I... think that's...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    They're a cute Exodia, but even in kitchen-sink magic I could never get them to work. The biggest issue is that you want to cast your cards on curve to keep on board with your opponent, but most token cards are less cmc than them. Yes call of the herd and increasing devotion are the dream, but...
