    General Innistrad: Double Feature -- A Double Whammy

    This set is great, I can skip it entirely! Honestly, I'm taking a "wait and see" approach with the black and white cards, because that Consider actually looks pretty cool to me and the gold frame doesn't bother me nearly as much as it does you, but it's definitely disappointing in terms of the...

    General Tournament of Champions: Community Sealed Event

    guh of course, reading the card explains the card. That's why you gave us so many lands, makes a ton more sense. Sorry about that! Updated decklists. Third time's the charm, right?

    General Poll: How many lands in your 360?

    For sure, variability is a big issue. Thanks, that's a good answer to the question I intended to ask! And yes, it's definitely 106 lands. 26 utilities and two full cycles of fetches, bounces, and completed horizons and bicycles makes 80 fixers. It might be overkill, but I wanted to force people...

    General Poll: How many lands in your 360?

    I know you literally asked us to only answer if we have a 360 card cube, but I'm wondering--why do you think you wouldn't get useful data from a differently-sized cube? Do you think that the ratio of lands to spells isn't the important bit? That's always how I've conceived of it, so it's...

    General Fight Club

    You don't think that any blue 1-drops are strong enough for your cube, right? I feel like I remember you mentioning that you only have cantrips on one. No offense, but I think we're operating under entirely different assumptions. I'm also actively looking to support those ninjas/curiosity decks...

    General Fight Club

    Silver Raven Artificer's Assistant Faerie Seer is a little too strong for my taste, unfortunately, so that leaves me with a choice of birds for enabling Ninjutsu. Both feel a little anemic, but how many artifacts do you think you'd want to run before you were comfortable playing the assistant...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I was also on the Monk Class hype train when it dropped, but I'm doubtful it's going to hold up. I'm still waiting to see it in action before I cut it, but it seems like a case of the card giving marginal bonuses in too many scenarios. It's a strong candidate for editing at some point, because I...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Late to the party, but Scion of Draco can work with DIY Seraph. Speaking of which, has anyone tried running this card? It seems like a decent candidate for 5C-enabler/fair reanimation target/slightly underpowered-yet-colorless-and-therefore-less-parasitic top end for 4C decks. Scion of Draco

    guh. This seems very strong and yet very fair. I'm loving W getting in on the graveyard value party, now all it needs are so enablers! Still, for those of us with graveyard-focused cubes, this seems like another step in a cool direction. My only issue is that it might be too good as a brick...

    Wow. Priest of Ancient Lore, eat your heart out. If, like me, you don't care as much about the lifegain and want to push Humans a little, I find it hard to imagine how one could do better. I'm loving all of these side grades. It's interesting that this makes aggro a little softer to 1-for-1...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Yeah, this absolutely needs to cost at least 4, and it's still a heavy color pie break. Introduction to annihilation costs 5, and this is just a blue version of that with extra steps. It probably wouldn't break anything for cube, but I'd err on the safe side. The color thing, however, bugs me...

    Sets (VOW) Crimson Vow

    In limited, probably not, but knowing that it can snipe a Clue or Blood token can be fine, I guess. Given that the artifact killing is going to be live a minuscule fraction of the time, it's probably best to just think about it as a replacement for Dragon's Fire. In constructed, we have a...

    Sets (VOW) Crimson Vow

    This looks great! A Flying Men with minor upside to help out my ninjas and blue tempo circa Ixalan is, quite literally, what I've been looking for. And if my spidey-senses are correct, it's yet another signal that we're going to see yet more Ninjas in Kamigawa 2.

    Dreamstealer Graveblade Marauder I run 2 copies of Ninja of the Deep Hours and a singleton each of Mistblade Shinobi and Moonblade Shinobi, but am anticipating adding more from Kamigawa 2. My U section is also angled towards tempo. Do people have clear favorites between these two or do they...

    General Secret Lair Spoilers

    Oh boy, if only. Twilight Imperium set me back $70 in 2017, and that was a bargain due to a new edition coming out. And don't even get me started on Gloomhaven or Frosthaven (which are definitely worth it at $100/$130, but are still very expensive). But yeah, Kickstarter-era board games start at...
