    Card/Deck Prowess in Cube

    I think Staggershock is one of red's best cards. It's excellent in certain matches and solid against everything else.

    General 180-card cubes in general and building one

    I have a mono-black theme cube that is about 200 cards. I only take it out a few times a year to draft because it gets stale fast. However, when we do draft it for those few weeks a year it's a blast. At such a small size themes definitely can work, but you may still have to break singleton...

    Card/Deck Green Noncreature Spells

    Yeah I like Bow in the ramp decks. The green decks we build aren't interested in attacking with lots of creatures, so Curse wouldn't see a lot of play. Primal Command has always been a way to put the game completely out of reach for the aggressive decks. It's basically the tipping point of...

    Card/Deck Green Noncreature Spells

    Primal Command has been one of our strongest green cards basically forever. What doesn't your playgroup like about it? How are they using typically using it? Other commonly run green spells that I enjoy are Harmonize and Sylvan Library. Two cards that I don't often see in lists are Bow of...

    Card/Deck Shit Thread: Planeswalker Tier List

    Elspeth: Impossible to beat. Kiora: Fairly weak most of the time but unleashing the krakens feels so fucking good. Sarkhan: Very solid. One of my favorite planeswalkers and red cards. Nissa: I just added her so I don't have enough info. Sorin: Seems good, but I don't see any reason to run him.

    Sets [C14] Commander 2014 Spoilers

    I had turn two Lotus Cobra, turn three fetchland, Titania, into Knight of the Reliquary tonight. She always made one guy and a couple times made more. It was a pretty good showing for her first night in cube. Dualcaster Mage was also good, it copied DTT against me and my teammate had it later...

    General How do YOU plan to use the various Conspiracy cards?

    How's Dack Fayden been? I run almost no artifacts in my cube but R/U is a very popular and powerful archetype. Is the looting alone good enough? Seems sweet at setting up the new delve cards.

    Sets [KTK] Khans of Tarkir Spoilers

    This set has tons of good cards for many different formats. Especially cube. I'm going to initially test out about 8-9 cards but there are others that different cubes would be interested in as well. On top of that, this set makes it easier to obtain the old fetches, making doubling up on them...

    Sets [KTK] Khans of Tarkir Spoilers

    That card looks very strong. I hope people on the other boards keep dismissing it so I can pick them up cheap. Dodges tons of burn, gives you two evasive bodies, blinkable, gains life, it really does it all.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Necro is one of my absolute favorite cards but I don't think it's good enough for typical cubes. It's too hard to cast and most decks are aggressive enough to punish it. I prefer Arena and potentially even Connections, even though i've never played with the ladder.

    Sets [KTK] Khans of Tarkir Spoilers

    How did they shit the bed so bad on the clan names? Mardu, Abzan, and Temur are just sooo clunky sounding. I guess Sultai and Jeskai aren't bad, but like Jason said, it's hard to distinguish them. I also think part of the problem is that the wedges already have sweet names that roll off the...

    General Best designed Magic card of all time

    The best designed card is: Blade Splicer And here's why. 1. The powerlevel is just right. Standard and Modern playable without being oppressive and a home-run in cube. Blade Splicer never feels unfair but it's always satisfying to cast. 2. A smooth casting cost of only a single white...

    General You Go Away Now

    Those cards have all gained tons of value over the years precisely because they are so popular. With the huge surge in player base they will only continue to climb, especially with modern becoming evermore popular. A good example of card that soared in price is Rishadan Port. The card has been...

    General You Go Away Now

    Yeah they really shit the bed in every way possible with the dodgy wording on that card.

    General You Go Away Now

    You should not sell cards unless you suspect a reprint that will damage the price. I don't think you will ever miss these: Sphinx, Balance, Hydra, Stunted Growth, Channel, Ball Lightning, Vexing Devil, Paladin en-Vec, Choker, Boots, Winter Orb, Ankh, Black Vise. I would keep these but not...

    General Fixing Mulligans, Improving Games

    Taking mulligans sucks. It's not fun to mulligan to five or to stomp an opponent who mulligans to five. I understand mulligans are part of the game, but so are Black Lotus, A-Call etc. and we don't cube with those. So with that in mind I started thinking of ways to improve the quality of games...
