    Sets (AFR) Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Previews- Dripping with Flavor, and Excess Words!

    Is it? I liked Kaldheim way more than Strixhaven, I find Strixhaven a bit too much repetitive since there are only 5 color pairs (let's say 4 because RW doesn't really exist), and the fact that a lot of Lessons are colorless or hybrid makes it in a way that I feel I see always the same cards in...

    I remember something said by MaRo or somebody else that went like this: the ZNR team said to the AFR team: "we have a party mechanic if you are interested", and the AFR team said "no thank you". I don't remember where I read this but I'm pretty sure it's real

    Oh yeah please, the m15 frame is the ugliest ever. I prefer the amonkhet invocation to that But maybe this new one is worse. I don't know how I feel

    True, but MH2 had only one "new" frame, since the other three were already used

    Oh wow, I saw this spoiled and didn't realize it was a Magic card until now

    General Using Cube Cobra statistics, what are the most unique cards in your list?

    Oh wow, my 0-1% cards are: Latchkey Faerie Mistbind Clique Day's Undoing Unmask Lake of the Dead The first two are there for a Faeries tribal theme, Day's Undoing is a budget Timetwister that works well with Narset (but I wanted to change it to Commit to Memory sooner or later), Unmask and...

    General 180-card "Twobert"

    Thank you! Yeah all of these seem interesting, I think I'll try some of them, but it feels strange to own a 360-card cube if I never draft it with 8 players Oh well, me neither I didn't consider the idea of cutting some colors, now I'm really interested! If I build a 2-coloured cube, I can...

    General 180-card "Twobert"

    Good morning everyone, I hope I'm doing it right since it's the first time I post a new topic in this section, so... anyway. I searched for this topic but I didn't find anything, and I wanted to see your opinion about it. I've read in the past few days some articles by Ryan Overturf...

    Sets (MH2) Modern Horizons 2 Testing/Includes Thread

    I think it depends on the power level of your cube... if you play cards like Snapcaster Mage, Dark Confidant, Vendilion Clique, Young Pyromancer, Arcane Savant, Eternal Witness and so on, probably it could be an interesting high-risk high-reward card. I don't think there are enough reasons to...

    General Actual contest: Design a 360 card cube with 100 unique cards

    This is my bad submission: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/alvoi-zoo The idea comes from: less unique cards implies more chances for archetypes that need a significant volume of cards of the same type. I love aggressive decks so my thought went to an aggro cube. Then I thought of putting a...

    So, Legendary would become just a flavour thing and not a mechanical aspect (besides some Karakas things)? And Mirror Gallery would become a five mana Darksteel Relic without indestructible?

    Alvoi's Cube

    Thank you! You're right, at the moment the cube is just some union of collections of cards, I need to find some more glue between the archetypes. Varolz and the scavenge cards are good ideas, I forgot about that mechanic but feels good with the dredge archetype. I think we can find some counter...

    Alvoi's Cube

    https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/alvoi-mma This is a 500 card list, for now. There are four cards missing but they are MH2 commons, I will add them when they’re available. So, now I’m not sure about what I want to do, if it’s better to cut some cards and have a smaller cube, or to add some cards...

    Alvoi's Cube

    So, now I'm missing only Urw Arcane, BG Dredge and WUbr Affinity. Let's see if I can build something, and afterwards I can begin looking for all the cross-pollination we need (when cubecobra will be back up):
