I still run a few "destroy target nonblack creature" removal spells in black. It is a nuance to make black kill spells a bit more effective in mono black than they are for the greedy 3+ color control piles. The logic is simple: The more black you pick during tze draft, the less black creatures...

Big upside over delve monsters is, that he keeps your graveard intact. I can turn him into a 5/5 and still recur my Last Gasp with something or cast a huge Rise from the Tides later. To be fair, just a flying men isn't the worst in my cube either. And I think most players still undervalue 1/1...

Pteramander You are a spells matter deck looking for some payoff? You are a ninja deck looking for some cheap fliers? You are a control deck looking for a finisher? I don't even support counter shenanigans, but still give my vote to this cute little salamander, because no other one-drop goes...

A great listen, like always! I was happy to hear I wasn't the only one who likes Nested Shambler :D I am very cautious personally, when it comes to cube changes, at least when the motivation is "these cards are new". Often I test just three cards or so that feel like absolute slam dunks and...

How much do they cost then and where can I get them?

Grim Discovery In a cube with 20 Prismatic Vistas, this card should be really solid, right? Edit: I guess it's still not that great.

I would actually love to get these sets

You guys never guess which Block I've started with ...

I'm tagging stuff like Flickerwisp as "Blink Enabler" and stuff like Wall of Omens as "Blink Target". A "Blink Payoff" would be an additional game piece that rewards you for having your thing entering/leaving the battlefield, like Soul Warden or Soul Herder.

Yeah, that might be true, but on the other hand, it's a very expensive proxy!

I'm on Channeler + Faldorn. Channeler appears to go into more decks, bridging discard and spell themes with a generally uselful play patter of a red Merfolk Looter. I also dislike how the Theorist just says "everything has madness", makes it less rewarding to actually do the sweet madness...

Seriously, I just hope, the game survives all that. I don't want to stand there alone with no one wanting to cube with me in 5, 10 or 20 years.

Looking for a colorless artifact.dec payoff, I stumbled across this card here, that I knew of once but then forgot it existed for a couple years or so. Mystic Forge Is it good? Let's assume you have ~12 cards in your 40 that you could cast of it? It also has that weird surveil ability...

I think the downside is mininal of any. The morph can really get people if there are at least a couple other morphs in most colors.

Wow, those are really some unique themes, Mown, sweet! Especially the first two of course. It's funny how I, Gruul Madness' biggest advocate, only cube one of the cards you listed there (Fauna Shaman). It proves imo, that the card pool is rich enough to support that deck in different...

What happens when Hasbro has activated that ability ten times?

What I'll try now is: 20 Vistas + a full set of painlands + a full set of bouncelands. 40 lands isn't much for 500 cards, but I have hopes it will do. I've done the above, to some degree, I even created a thread about this...

The problem with this approach is, that I want to support mono color decks, and having extra picks because you don't need to prioritize fixing is a nice reward.

The thing is, one of the reason I'm interested here, is the opportunity to free some slots for actual cards that do stuff. If have 56 Vistas/360 cards, I didn't achieve much.

You believe so? If during an 8-person draft, 24 Vistas are opened, it seems hard to not get at least 1 or 2. But yeah, maybe mono vista is a little too extreme, even for my cube. Hmmmm
