Well aware, I don't have Storm in and I'm very confident in that decision (far too parasitic, you end up warping the entire environment around it and I don't really enjoy the rituals and ramp it wants) - but yeah, the Stone Rain is hilarious upside for me, not downside. If that isn't the case...

OOZE ON FIRST Aave, Progenitor Ooze Biogenic Ooze Inexorable Blob Mitotic Slime shame about Uchuulon being a free graveyard hoser real shame about Biowaste Blob having Commander garbage on it instead of being a real card real shame about Ooze Garden doing the exact opposite of what we want it...

oh my god I didn't even think about the Warp trigger on Quantum Riddler and I'm the world's number one Up the Beanstalk enjoyer That means I also forgot Blitz and Dash: Sabin, Master Monk Flamerush Rider Which in turn makes me realize I forgot copies, and while I don't have Splinter Twin going...

While I'm talking about blue stuff and stuff nobody's doing and conditional stuff: What would it take for you (as an individual, the poster reading this) to put Stifle in your cube deck? Only 10 fetches in the cube. My thinking is that I'm not putting it in my deck unless I want to draw it for...

I loved Lorehold! Give me more like that and stupid Sunrise Sovereign... wait no I meant Hamletback Goliath... garbage (sure it's basically unplayable, but you get what I mean) or if not enormous idiots, something like Blind-Spot Giant where RW gets "undercosted large idiots with drawbacks" -...

in Cube I absolutely agree with this, but I've been finding in what little watching / 2 drafts on Arena (two too many) I did that "feeding your graveyard" is way less relevant than the last few years have conditioned me to believe: 3 good uncommon payoffs (Prison Break, Morbius the Living...

Of course! "Five to match the shocklands that aren't in this set". How did I not think of that?

They're doing the Lord of the Rings thing again, where they're selling new product 3+ months after the set came out with new cards in it. They announced the "Chocobo Bundle" and "Scene Boxes", coming December 5th, and just... silently added them to the normal FF product page without making an...

Oh, absolutely, I didn't post the old ones because they're all either too weak or Chronomantic Escape (king of the feel-bads*), but if you want a few ways to sideways-enable longer games without putting actual win conditions in... (which you might, if you want suspend in general) *a friend of...

Invitational (yeah ok I'm old, World Championship) cards continue to be sick as hell. I know Duelist of the Mind didn't work out but I'm absolutely putting this one in my cube day 0. Eat it, Fauna Shaman, even though you do totally different stuff. @MilesOfficial it was you reminiscing about...

Seriously though, there's some recent weird Commander suspend cards nobody knows about: Charnel Serenade Inspiring Refrain Sinister Concierge Venture Forth Concierge's a really interesting one, but I have no idea how it plays.

You gotta proxy the fake arena card. you gotta you gotta you gotta Call the Crash

Not entirely without issue unless they changed this, I haven't read all the lore: Groundling Pouncer Obviously there's the unchanged ones (of course 20 years later everyone remembers that Endry is the surviving third of the Vendilion Clique) but not all of them! ...also the faeries are all...

Of my 203 creatures, Scolding hits 150 of them! It's way higher than I expected. (of course it's also accurate to say 150/363 spells are creatures that Scolding can hit...)

This isn't strictly a relevant cube update, but an image of the Standard Pirates precon box on wotc's website has Spell Snare listed as a card in it. Welcome back, old friend! Now's my time to advocate for trying it in cube if you haven't yet. Maybe you don't have enough 2s. Maybe you do. Me...

This set has UW, UR, BG, GW, BR, and Edge of Eternity had BW, UG, RW, UB, RW. (not just on the bonus sheet, they're in the actual set too, thus back to being legal in Standard already - and everyone was wondering exactly this about those at the time too!)

on the one hand I stopped caring on the other, as I said to my old college roommate, they repeated the SpongeBob feat of "so ugly it wraps back around to an incredible shitpost" not once but twice: in summary

they're just doing that because it's fun. the Lorwyn goblins probably toss rocks back, too, inadvertently creating the only functional cross-border society this is a joke but it also fits ...actually, do we know how the thoughtweft works now? like, can the Lorwyn side kithkin thoughtweft into...

Worth noting, we got one enemy and one ally evoke mythic spoiler today. I'm really hoping for literally 10/15 of the mythic sheet being Evoke Idiots because hell yeah I love evoke.

Set code: ECL (and Commander is [currently unknown]) Release date: January 23, 2026 We got some leaks, then we got some spoilers, confirming those leaks. Evoke's back: Some callbacks to old friends: And a bunch of DFCs that are a pain in the butt to post when they're one card, let alone...
