    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I think these cards are really strong in a deck that isn't in your Cube. If you had more of the delve/self-mill/delirium stuff these would be pretty important cards.

    "Fast" multiplayer cube

    You gotta get the 2/3 Misprint!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    This is a good magic card if you’re doing prowess and artifact stuff. I’d play it in addition to the second Chromatic Star (and the third Chromatic Star as well, tbh. Grillo had it right all along, play more Chromatic Stars for Artifacts! But also this card.)

    General Fight Club

    Personally I think Master of Waves is cooler and less parasitic. I’m not convinced a player is going to be able to leverage the Mentor’s abilities in an average game.

    General What is your stickiest glue card?

    No one is saying your Cubes work the way I described, I was simply trying to illustrate the scenario where Pteremander is less desirable. The big thing with Delve threats is that they can exile anything from the yard to cast, indiscriminate of card type. For example, if I want to cast a...

    General What is your stickiest glue card?

    I literally have a spells graveyard deck, and Pteramander still takes too long to come online. Pteramander is a cool card, but it's hard to scale fast enough to fully leverage it if your games end before turn 6 or so. It's not like Dragon's Rage Channeler, Delver of Secrets, or even Tarmogoyf...

    General 2022 Standard Rotation Cube Retrospective [Lucky Paper]

    Do you know what's weird to me about this data? Omnath, Locus of Creation This card was the 23rd least tested card (as a percentage of responses) in any set from the sets in question. It was also the least tested mythic rare from any set. Skyclave Squid had more people testing it than Omnath...

    General Rehabilitating Parasites

    I have not, but I think this sounds like a good idea. They basically did that in Guilds of Ravnica (when Surveil debuted), so they could get the density they needed for "Surveil matters" as a draft/casual constructed theme. Because Surveil was in the set, no cards with scry were printed.

    General Rehabilitating Parasites

    Man imagine if this card's last ability was somewhere between Eye Gouge and Cut Down... I'd love that.

    Velrun’s List of TV Shows Everyone Should Watch

    HOTD is based on the book "Fire and Blood," so the showrunners won't have to create any portions of the story. They will just have to adapt the rest of the book. I think Game of Throne's downfall was that the last two or three books in the series weren't written when the show was being finished...

    Good, we're on the same page! I think WOTC was doing this from like 2015-2018 when they were really going hard on lowering the power level and complexity of Standard sets, and only providing reprints established players wanted in what eventually became the bi-yearly(!) Master's sets. This...

    Yes and I'm convinced it's not as fun or powerful as other options.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I mean if it can consistently be 2-mana divination it's pretty good. I'd play it in a low-power environment where it's always "turned on" for sure.

    I think Minecraft's free updates are part of what drives further sales for them, though. According to this source (which is roughly equivalent to other information I've found on the topic but this one has the best chart), Minecraft sells about 25 million copies per year, plus or minus around 5...

    General (M30) M30 Previews / Spoilers

    I would be surprised if this particular card costs $30 given the fact that it's going to be a common and the normal version can be acquired for as low as 8 cents currently. Even the Beta version is "only" $20. I don't think anyone could charge that much for a card no one cares about that isn't...

    General Fight Club

    I've been playing both of these lately, and I think channeler is both cooler and better. Easy Huntmaster. It's a cooler, more iconic, and more powerful card that your drafters are more likely to recognize. It is harder to deal with 1 for 1 and still provides value even when you aren't doing...
