I'm very interested in this one. Love the crossover of spells and artifacts, and being functionally mono-colored to boot!

A couple albums I've been listening to:

McDonalds in Philadelphia are literal manifestations of hell. So if I'm in the city, Burger King it is.

grand architect or sai, master thopterist

Oh, this is great. I like this more than Judith, the Scourge Diva. Feels a little more elegant, triggers on tokens....while putting some pressure on your opponent's decisions. I don't care so much about the creature buff of Judith.

That's kinda gross....two bodies on the first attack is the floor? Far outside of consideration for my cube. However, super funny with: Eidolon of Countless Battles

Red 2's are super stacked at this point. I'm thinking back to how slim the pickins were when I first started cubing... The cut won't be easy, but this is a must for me

Fblthp makes me think of a sound that Calvin would make at Susie Derkins

woweeeeeee

Someone interpreting a hyrbid card to be a signal of a supported guild, especially a card like the above Kiora that appears to outline some sort of archetype, isn't failed logic. The simple fact that the mana symbols being included together reflects a positive relationship between the colors...

The hybrid mana signals Simic to me even if it's functionally no different from being 2G or 2U. It implys a pairing and theme that should exist...like seeing a Tattermunge Maniac would lead you to assume gruul aggro is a supported archetype.

Nice series! I appreciate the thoughtful brevity. Is there a link to your list? I'm curious to hear about: Ancient Stone Idol Can you rank this among some common fatties in terms of oppressiveness? I sorely want to replace Artisan of Kozilek with a large artifact creature, but I feel it's...

I think it's mainly just the fact that Tradewind has a lot of modes, and it's not always obvious which way to use it: Attack opponent's manabase Tie up opponent's mana/tempo by bouncing opponent's permanents Save your permanent from combat/removal Bounce and replay your own permanent for profit...

I should spend some time thinking about why Tradewind's brand of repetitiveness is more palatable to me than say Oketra's Monument and Kor Skyfisher...which I loathe.

Thanks for the kind words! and welcome to the forum. Integrating those explosive/game-warping cards within a "fair" framework has been a long process of trial and error. I'm still not convinced I've got it fully figured out, but I'm definitely closer than I've been before. During the process...

Although it was sufficiently neutered when damage could no longer be stacked, Tradewind still requires a certain density of removal and at instant speed to keep in check. It's hands down my favorite card. I had to cut it from my cube years ago for being underpowered, but I've always had plenty...

Thanks! Thanks! Happy Birthday to you! I have to say that the handful of changes I made that were inspired by your cube have opened up some troublesome color pairings, and have really contributed to the cube's recent success. Doesn't always feel that way :D thanks!!

Got a full pod for a pseudo Birthday Cube. Good way to celebrate my 35th. Due to the special occasion, I required everyone to bring a random prize for support, heavily emphasizing the random. The prize pot included: 1 piece of Lapis Lazuli from Afghanistan 1 custom stamped metal Benjamin...

I've always been super intrigued by Necroplasm. I ended up sticking to Stinkweed Imp for the deeper dredge and to somewhat thwart creature-cheat strategies, but I should really test it out. I've never actually played with it before, but it'd be nice to have another answer to tokens that isn't...

I'm a fan of genesis chamber, but I support a variety of noncreature strategies...I'd like it less in a combat-dominant format
