    Safari on Laptop user here! I tested the images, and have to say: This works correctly! There is very little lag as well, the overall process is very smooth. The card back loaded after about a second the first time I loaded the page. Each subsequent time it was virtually instant. All of the...

    Thoughtseize Inquisition of Kozilek Duress Agonizing Remorse Collective Brutality Brain Maggot Kitesail Freebooter So you know, I run a bit. I'm mostly running all of these to replicate the Thoughtseize and Brain Maggot that were common back when I started playing Magic. I want to make sure my...

    Sets Ten Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Cards I'm Excited About for Cube!

    In this article, I discuss my ten favorite Cube cards from Adventures in the Forgotten Realms! Keep in mind that this has less to do with card playability and more to do with why these cards are so dang interesting as compared to the many other options in this amazing set. There's something here...

    General [CMR] Commander Legends Previews

    Apparently, the rocks CAN hit players. I think the original translation may have been incorrect. I still think this card is bad, though.

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

    This card seems really weak. The fact that it's a 4-mana do-nothing that dies to shock and has no way to recur itself seems very suspect, even for a synergy Cube. This feels like one of those Commander cards that was designed with a purposefully underpowered body so that people wouldn't target...

    I would assume the usual suspects are pretty good.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Some potential good fits for you might include: Incubation Druid A good way to help convert mana from your 1-mana dorks into enough mana to cast the big things like Thorn Mammoth. If you want to support a deck that ramps past 5 or so mana, it's beneficial to have these sorts of cards that can...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    This is a card that makes Johnny-minded players happy but causes them to lose Cube matches through tempo loss. This card is only good in very slow, very low-power environments where sacrificing a reasonably large creature isn't going to necessarily swing the game too much.

    It's good, but it's far from stupid. It's a good midrange value engine that helps to showcase any potential land shenanigans you might be supporting. I think if you compare this to another fair card like Primordial Mist you can kind of see how Felidar Retreat isn't necessarily stupid.

    Man, it's almost like the base rate for creatures has improved over time!

    I don't really see how this is pushed. It's a bear with two-mana firebreathing. Sure it can give other gobbos a boost if they exist on the board which is nice, but I don't see that advantage being too big. I think the card looks decent, certainly good at lower power levels, but I think in 2021...

    You get to block with it and attack with it at least once, plus you get to draw 7! Is that really not enough?

    You and your creatures represent a Party, and you Venture in together. So when you only have Fifty Feet of Rope, that just means you're playing a Solo Campaign like in this Stephen Colbert adventure!

    Think smaller! Play this with a sacrifice outlet like Viscera Seer or Goblin Bombardment, activate the {B}{B}{B} ability to draw 7, and while the Trigger is on the stack sacrifice this to the outlet. Since this card disappears before the draw 7 resolves, you never exile them!

    Stoneforge Mystic Ranger-Captain of Eos Recruiter of the Guard I'm mostly running these cards as a value plays for White decks. White doens't really get a lot of ways to generate hard card advantage, which is totally fine for 1V1 Magic, but I really like it when players have lots of options...

    This is a testing/includes thread. Post pictures or a text list using /c with what cards you plan to include and what cards you plan to test. Including: (I really hate the art on Power Word Kill, so I may end up not including it in the end, but it is good enough to be worth inclusion in my...
