"Create a 1/1 green Squirrel creature token. When it enters the battlefield, it Investigates. When a Squirrel you control Investigates this turn, it creates a Food token." Idk if we're just running around trees here, but it's cute! Besides, given that it's essentially a silver-bordered card...

As for the cards themselves, I really really like the designs. I know we (well, you and other people, I mostly watched) talked a lot about 'simplicity' and what it brings to a card. I don't have too much to add to that discussion other than to say that I think you struck a really good balance...

No, and that's a good point! Sorry, I should have distinguished those two segments more by picking a different example. However, I do think that the idea holds true, that more fixing leads to more splashing in large-delta'd cubes than that same fixing would lead to in cubes with smaller deltas.

Amulet of Vigor cube when? In all seriousness, I think one discrepancy we're not highlighting enough here might be the difference between actual sameyness and potential sameyness. Actual sameyness refers to whether or not the decks actually turn out the same, whereas potential sameyness refers...

Generally speaking I'd agree, but they tend to drive you towards one very specific strategy, as the benefit of getting a free card from not one but two cards in your deck that work towards that synergy is not so subtly very strong; essentially, "Partner With" reads "draw a good card," which...

This thread was inspired by someone over on the subreddit, so props to them. (Original thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgcube/comments/nvk2au/i_tried_this_in_my_cube_and_i_think_it_might_be_a/) I would never play any cards with the "Partner With" ability in my cube, let alone "Partner."...

No, he just puts that on the outside of his Magic boxes in case he loses them, silly!

I think this might be a little reductionist, if only because power level is self-referential. For example, Second Sunrise is by no means going to be great if you stick it in a random cube, and will be cut in this 'iterative powermax' process you describe. However, if you have a functioning Eggs...

Hatesealed? No no, this is Hatestart. Seriously though, I like the idea a lot. As to the collusion issue, randomize them or, hey, play with people who aren't going to be jerks (that is, who will all agree to be on roughly the same level of competitiveness and who care about competition more...

Yes. ...well, it would matter as a tag for Commander and for a spell being counted as Historic, but those are both edge cases (okay, one is a very large edge case). Kind of like the Tribal supertype, Legendary would be mostly decorative outside of these specific scenarios.

Sliversmith I would have thought there'd be more cards the Daredevil could go infin-ish with, but I think this is it. Still probably costs too much, but I think it could work without too much trouble in a cube that's both heavy on artifacts and discard. Could do work with Desecrated Tomb, but...

Summoned by all this talk of Balduvian Trading Post, no doubt.

Yeah, of course not--if I'm being honest, it's mostly to help me keep track of what I'm doing. Thanks!

@Modin Oh, yeah, it's super restrictive. What I'm doing for lands is like 32 Terramorphic Expanses or something and calling it a day. @Jason Waddell Are we allowed purely aesthetic customs? Because we have so many cards in multiples, I'd like to signify how many of each card there is in the...

You are <3 In actuality, "pog" is derived from the English "Play Of (the) Game," and grew to popularity with the video game Overwatch (2016). In this game, after each match the players are treated to a ~10 second clip of what was algorithmically determined to be the best play of the game from...

So....uh.... I dunno how you'll feel about this one. However, I'd wanted to ask--why TrainmasterGT? What's that got to do with anything? And I figured I'd better bring an offering.

Heart eyes emoji. While not being able to cast it as a topdeck stinks, I like that this isn't a bajillion dollars. Plus, two upkeeps is not all that long of a time, and 2 is a lot less than 4. I will probably test this, especially if I cave to adding some cascade in. This + the red 2-drop...

I was just about to suggest a BTP react! Seconded.

Did they "leak," or are they just using these tantalizing tidbits to draft cube designers for their cube designer cube? Are you really as innocent as you seem, Jason, or are you part of this dastardly scheme yourself??
