    I'll try to better articulate the point I was making, and I'll preface by saying I'm only bringing this up as a voluntary liaison of sorts, because I'm genuinely happy to have you here, and hope that you remain a long term productive member of our community. I'm already incorporating some ideas...

    I should also add that I don’t comment on most cards brought up here, because they aren’t remotely relevant to my goals, and it’s often exhausting enough to maintain my own philosophy and standards of card evaluation let alone wear those of others like I’m changing out hats

    Fwiw, you’ll probably wear your fingers out here if you approach card evaluations from this perspective alone. A good 75+% of cards discussed here won’t sniff your list, and most cards aren’t brought up as considerable in that type of context I realized I was being dismissive in my first...

    The topic of feel bad effects occasionally comes up in low power settings...land destruction is the obvious bogeyman, but it may also extend to avoiding things like mill or counterspells. If you are running a low powered environment with these types of concerns you may run into a similar...

    Cunning Rhetoric reads pretty bad to me for most cube settings. I see the fun appeal due to the randomness and the mini head game...but it’s probably more at home in a casual multiplayer format

    General What can green do that's not ramp?

    Yeah the self-mill angle can be pretty high octane and scales reasonably well based on the support and payoffs chosen. I’ve had some pretty degenerate games that started with entombing a golgari grave-troll

    General What can green do that's not ramp?

    In addition to what’s been mentioned, there’s power matters/berserkers, land tilling (lands changing zones for profitable triggers), dredge, creaturefall, and creature toolbox strategies

    Thanks, but I prefer to just ram my head into a wall for 2-3 hours a day every day until I pass from this plane of existence

    Same. I don’t have the stamina to really jump into the thick of things, but I’m enjoying the back and forth outside of the momentary whiffs of dogma. :D My cube for the last several years has felt like a search for a power-max version of a riptide cube. I crave mana efficient spells and...

    Chain is at its best when you are doing super cheaty things with baubles and Sai, Master Thopterist and the like...I think dbs runs it. Directed at your opponent is pretty situational in a typical cube context, and I can only assume that quality increases in a multiplayer setting rather than...

    Focusing on a card like Champion of the Parish makes more sense to me in making that context dependent argument. YP is different to me...even at a lower power level you could have things like retrace spells, firebolts, blast from the past, etc sitting in the yard to profit from. It definitely...

    I have no stake in this YP discussion, but for the record I think that it can scale to fit a pretty wide range of power bands with the proper support. It’s a great card. I’m just started to feel like it’s getting squeezed out of my cube design
