    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Looking for UW card which is an artifact payoff or support card. Glassdust Hulk and Aerial Engineer are a little low power level. I'm thinking of adding either Thopter Foundry or Dovin, Grand Arbiter but open to other suggestions.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It's a bigger better Nekretaal but really, how interesting is Nekretaal? I think you can do better at 6 mana in black for a midrange/control finisher.

    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    Well I'm sold, I'll definitely be giving it a try. Between this and Spikeshot Elder, I can see maybe the seedlings of a red "power matters" or "grow power" theme being possible. Anything else that might work with these? Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin maybe? Spikeshot Goblin, Bloodshort Trainee...

    General Cube cards - Negative Surprises

    The Grand Calcutron I thought it might be funny, if not necessarily good, but it just made people miserable.

    General Cube Cards - Positive Surprises

    Oketra's Monument I tried it on a whim not expecting it to do very much and now it's one of my favourite cards in the cube.

    General How to buy cards in bulk for Cube?

    If you're doing an order from a retailer, see if you can join it with someone else to split shipping costs. I mostly use Magic Card Market as well now, and I think TCGPlayer is the equivalent in the US.

    I didn't, and I had to look it up because it sounded so wrong. But this comment on Gatherer confirms it:

    You could have a riff on Recurring Nightmare Repetitive Dreams {2}{B} Sorcery At the beginning of your upkeep, you may return Repetitive Dreams from your graveyard to your hand As an additional cost to cast Repetitive Dreams, sacrifice a creature. Return target creature card with...

    Anyone had any experience with Thopter Foundry This would be in a cube without Sword of the Meek.

    I'd rather lose than cast a Snapcaster for no value. At least my conscience would be clear.

    I went to the local legacy monthly tournament this Sunday and as it's unsanctioned and full proxies are allowed, I brewed up a deck myself for maybe the first time ever:- Ones 3 Phyrexian Dreadnought 4 Brainstorm 4 Ponder 4 Stifle 4 Crop Rotation 2 Worldly Tutor Twos 4 Daze 1 Sylvan Library 2...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Purecast is my favourite, followed by Affinity for Basics and Primal/Basic. I don't really like Monofuel. Empower I find hard to work out how good it will be in practice, but my instinct is that it's too swingy, in that it's either not much of an extra cost or you can't even cast the card...

    Also call it "Dye the Soil", which I think is what you were going for in the first place.
