    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    It frustrates me to no end that all of the LTC nonbasics cycles are incomplete and that nobody else seems to have picked up on it. I know, I know, great place to make your own, but you'd think WotC would make the missing lands available in set boosters or a secret lair or something for the fans...

    General Iconic big creatures

    Rampaging Baloths Wolfbriar Elemental? I guess this shows my age for what I consider classic, lmao. Hornet Queen Iconic, but stronger than the rest for sure.

    General Aesthetics Debate Club: Optimizing Art in Cube (Daily!)

    I'm with you that I really wanted the LotR one to be good but it just...isn't. The flavor text is also a baffling choice on that one. Magali all the way!

    I think a lot of the bullshit has moved to the discord and that people tend to use the forums more for longer-form content.

    Card/Deck Cheeky Token Deck

    Big ups to Tchotchke Elemental. It just works! People complain that it can't get bigger than 5/5 or 6/6 in most circumstances, but I think that that worry is overblown--if your 1-drop needs to be bigger than a 5/5 (or even a 3/3) then you have bigger problems.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    2 damage to any target and a 2 damage to yourself, or maybe even 3 and 3? Jessie and James *are* known for their plots blowing up in their own faces, after all.

    Look up the Torumekian army for more! Seriously, don't sleep on the Nausicaa Manga for art if you can stomach black and white.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Love these, but I think you might want to specify on Auditor's Eye whether or not this affects deck size because if it does then it's crazy strong. I'm also unsure how Stash differs from Conjure in a meaningful way apart from Auditor's Eye. There are probably cool things you can do with the one...

    I love the quality of light in that one, but is it just me or does she look uncomfortably like Taylor Swift?

    General (LTR / LTC) Lord of the Rings Testing/Includes Mega Thread!

    Certain adds: Reprieve Minas Tirith Barad-Dur The Shire Mines of Moria Rivendell Theoden, King of Rohan Wizard's Rockets I genuinely like all the lands. Bard-Dur stands out as being potentially problematic and Rivendell and The Shire might be too weak. I'm curious to see if Mines of Moria might...

    General (LTR / LTC) Lord of the Rings Testing/Includes Mega Thread!

    For Minas Tirith, I don't know if it has to be particularly efficient to be good. I see it as a card that aggro decks only activate when they're out of gas and need just another card to close things out, and at that point the efficiency doesn't matter all that much. It also helps disguise a...

    Sets (LTR) The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth

    Some cards in the image gallery are pretty cool. Shall we? Nobody is talking about Old Man Willow, and I think that's a damn shame. He's a Golgari Goodstuff critter through and through and suffers from needing to untap, but is the cheapest "p/t are equal to your land count" creature yet and...

    Moralist/Sorry Cop reporting in, just as expected! I have mixed feeling about that game, but it's a great novel.

    Sets (LTR) The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth

    Blistering hot centrist take here, but I think I need to try The Ring Tempts You before I make any decisions about it in the same way that I needed to play a bit of AFR to understand Dungeons--and I mean this on both mechanical and flavor axes. There are some mechanics we can draw good analogies...

    General Basic Lands

    The first one stylistically looks like the remnants of a skyship like the Predator and the Weatherlight, but I can't be sure of the rest. My best guess is that it's the Predator, which crashed into the Cabal Stronghold at the end of its arc. However, there are other things in the background, so...

    Sets (LTR) The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle Earth

    Looks like a cycle of utility lands! They all look pretty dang strong, too. I have only a few 1/2 cmc legendary creatures but I like the idea of having legendary as a slight buildaround. The art is also great. Looking forward to testing these.

    That's Rivendell--Lothlorien is where we see Galadriel.

    General Aggro-specific removal; or, Lightning Bolt vs. Lightning Strike

    How do you tweak a removal section to buff or nerf certain kinds of decks? There are some obvious answers--Wraths support control decks and creatures with ETB triggers support midrange decks--but removal designed to slot into aggro decks has been harder to pin down for me. There are, of course...
