Wow this has been one of the best exchanges all year!

Not annoying enough to make me avoid the card. A 2/2 creature that draws a card is pretty good, even if it draws something that won't always be relevant. Also it searches for any plains, not just basics. So you can fetch up an Indatha Triome or something in a pinch. I think if you want to...

I'll just stick to... Chromanitcore Soulflayer

This was widely considered to be the best draft common in Kaldheim if I remember correctly. I think if your power level is low enough that it mirrors retail limited and you're ok with playing a foretell card, then go right ahead and give it a try. On a related note, Spore Crawler from Crimson...

I like that this Un-Set is black-border now. I wasn't going to be going out of my way to get any of the cards from this because I don't have a need for land upgrades beyond my Theros basics that I currently use and I already have a full set of shocks. But, now that there are some cards that will...

No, that's a good number. The shocklands seem a bit more powerful than the rest of this bunch but otherwise I like the spread. Perhaps you could replace the shocks with pain lands?

Ditto. Might be good if it cost 3, though. Or was a 2/1 for {1}{U} or{U}{U} like Young Pyromancer.

That's very surprising in the case of Murderous Rider. That card is always super premium in my Cube because it can remove an important threat and then "draw" a decently sized creature. I'm guessing the reason why you might be seeing different results than me is because your threats are a...

Always getting the two cards you want is generally going to be better than having to choose between two piles that were purposefully designed by the opponent to be sub-optimal. There are so many cards these days that are better than FoF that there's not really a reason to play it unless you...

This card looks extremely boring and quite swingy. It seems like it will either needlessly extend games without advancing them in any meaningful capacity. When it's not being annoying, it's going to be a bad "finisher" in an aristocrats deck that will feel oppressive with token spammers like...

Dying to be Good {2}{B} Enchantment Whenever you discard one or more cards, create a tapped 2/2 black Zombie creature token. It's the other one but good!

I'm pretty excited for this set. It's a really cool way to merge the draft experiences for MID and VOW while keeping the contributions from each set equal to 50/50. There's a lot of overlapping themes in these sets which look like they would play well together but wouldn't otherwise exist in the...

Glasskite looks like the best control finisher of these three. Sphinx feels very underwhelming and Ephemeron requires expending tons of extra resources to keep it from dying. Glasskite is difficult to remove, but not frustratingly so, and only requires a one time cost to play.

Plot twist: I'm actually not going to argue for Dig Up in your Cube because you convinced me on discord that it's probably too slow for you. I thought that was a very salient criticism of Dig Up and defenitiely removed some amount of my bullishness towards the card. I still want to test it in...

Yes, yes, let the maple syrup flow through you!

I don't think WOTC would do this specifically because they want to avoid this reaction ;). And even if they do, most of the good ramp targets require at least two pips of colored mana these days. Playing tron would either mean waiting until turn 5 to cast anything big or using bad mana...

I wanted to write a reply to @Onderzeeboot's post but didn't want to make a massive wall of quotes, so I put it in a spoiler instead! You have many interesting ideas, Mr Bootman!

Yeah it was a little annoying that someone else posted a thread after I had already started putting mine together. I didn't see it until I had already clicked post because it wasn't there when I logged on. The full spoiler had only been up for like an hour at that point! I do not mind people...

I love all of these wedding cards. Inject them directly into my veins!
