My favorite posts are the ones that highlight obscure but solid B-list cards that everyone else has either forgotten or never knew existed in the first place. The shitposts are a close second. For threads as a whole, I'm a fan of the classic "ask a question answer a question" threads--Fight...

Taking a step back, I think that what what you want these slots to do re: cross-pollination of archetypes is more important than the quesiton of which card is best in a vaccuum. The Dowser and Wall are really combo pieces for a Ghostly Flicker deck and will be 23rd cards in any other deck unless...

I run Ruination Rioter And have run wort, the raidmother With a lot of token makers (e.g. Krenko's Command) for Gruul go-wide. But these are a little unintuitive.

Stitched Together Liliana, Death's Majesty Profane Command At least one of these likely counts as low-powered.

What? Google is telling me that losschicken is at least approximately German for "send off," but from context I suspect that's not what you meant. Unless that's German slang for life drain??

As a cute Limited gimmick, stickers sound great. Sharpie cubes and the like are a huge hit for this exact reason. As an eternal mechanic played in formats with cards worth hundreds if not thousands of dollars, stickers sound miserable even if only for the grief potential alone. I know that MaRo...

Clarification--do you have to play cards in doubles? Or do you just get two copies of each card and then get to choose? Apologies if I am reading this wrong, I am both sleep-deprived and jetlagged.

It's the opposite of Flames of Moradin because it's a real card. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a sky to wave my old-man walking stick at.

Thallid is very slow (T5 before you see another body in the best-case scenario) and is a hard stop to aggro by being an 0/5 for 2. If you are okay with that it can definitely be powerful in that role--heck, many midrange decks will struggle to punch through that without spending removal--but I'm...

CONTINUED TOKEN CLEAROUT As fallout of my decision to simplify tokens, I've had to make some more cuts. Winota, Joiner of Forces Fight as One Each of these cards reference "Human" and "Non-human," meaning that you have to care about the difference between the tokens from Secure the Wastes and...

Oh, if you're at 180 then that changes things! This makes total sense, my bad for not looking up your cube before answering. Still, I'd argue that the Crab is a counterspell first that also happens to support reanimation/ramp and should be viewed as such rather than seeing it as a...

Hot take alert, but I don't think they compete for the same slot at all. Sure, yes, you can reanimate both of them relatively easily, but apart from that I think you can include both and be completely fine. For example, the Crab is perfectly fine as a Disallow variant alone; being able to...

I think the exercise gets to be whatever you want it to be! And that what you want it to be can change.

Big Bilbo energy from this hint.

If it wasn't for the "no constructed play" I'd think it's The joke angle makes me thing it's But that can't be right either, as I don't think it's a draft powerhouse.

I have made a pair of terrible mistakes. MISTAKE 1: After gaming out what going to 100 fixing lands would do, I'm realizing that I forgot one simple thing--fetches just don't do much in this environment to make the shuffling worthwhile. I'd rather stick with a 20/20/20 split of...

(so don't try to cube with mana tithe)
