I mean neither brimaz nor crusader are especially interesting cards imo, they're both "very efficent 3-drops" and it's not like theres a shortcomming of interesting options there right?

I think the -1/-1 ought to be a -1 ability?

Ainok Survivalist does uh, trigger deathmist. edit: and that's why its even up on the table I see when scrolling up two posts :p

It sounds like a sort of durdly prowess trigger-enabler?

Bandwagon time I believe, I've heard wishes for more control cards in my cube.

Fetch Shock Bounce Scry sounds like an almost new-school throwback to the initial power cube mana base. I like others have found the bounceland-scry package pretty intriguing but I don't know if I got room for it in my cube. Tell me how it ends up working!

The last one they made was pretty good though. If we are to judge by that card, they have certainly touched interesting design space using the landfall mechanic.

Eew! Make that command "Where X is the largest power among creatures you control" or something otherwise it's going to be a real pain to do all the combat math. Otherwise, kinda cool command.

What about moving it all a turn behind? Elvish Mystic becomes leaf gilder

Double deathtouch!

I could try that out. I have pod still in the cube. There's of course a slight danger in clogging things up, but running a few more pod-friendly creatures in green and white to help solidify the theme?

I think I might let my drafters invent the GW deck (since it usually builds itself in terms of being aggro-ramp) and just sprinkle it with some cards like wolfir avenger and similair good aggro 3-drops. I might try out the enchantress theme now that we started the subtheme-thread! But I'd rather...

I didn't even realise I wanted to see more focus on black control on this board until now! My question is, is there even a door open for black control to be able to use the graveyard for value at high power? Too durdley?

Yeah, milling essentially reads "shuffle your opponents deck". Does screw with scry nicely though, which actually is a thing sort off in a few games.

Sometimes I think about if Theros would've been a little higher powered. In retrospect I think I like almost all the mechanics but they were pretty lackingly pulled off.

Might be because of limited and/or NWO, playing exiled lands might be a foreign concept?

Enough of my players seem to have poked at me to motivate me to actually reassemble the cube and get a draft going. I have a new found love for very mechanically oriented color parings, and will follow someone here's advice (can't remember who!) who suggested we all should run less gold colors...

bonds of faith It's removal and a heroic enabler!

From a top down perspective it's nice as well. I hope they showcase more mechanical representations of world eating not-cthulus

I'm glad you put that out there. I've been giving my defiant strike lusty looks on my desk every now and then but it just doesn't feel like it makes the cut, and the rtr first strike life link one I did play doesn't cantrip. This is a nice middle ground. First strike feels crucial.
