    General When Is Fixing Too Good?

    My benchmark (it's probably somewhere in the preceding posts) is 12-15% of the cube should be fixing. I don't run a ULD, so trend those numbers downward if you're handing out free lands people don't have to spend picks on, but keeping 15 card packs. So at 450, thats 54-67.5 lands, so 60 seems...

    The Riptidening—Building my Cube from scratch

    I think that sentance made my head explode :P Is there a lantern of insight in the ULD? That thing isn't too slow/expensive?

    Well, I've heard good things from Loading Ready Run. I like their idea of a banlist actually. Nothing is actually banned, you just have a certain ammount of points to spend on your deck (7), and all the broken cards cost a point or two (Flash, for Eg, costs 4)

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Customs: Hopefully this becomes the white Bestial Mask. White's definitely the color that wants an attacker early and an equipment that forces through damage late, but it doesn't blow me away like Mask does. Maybe that'll come with time. Also all complains leveled at me for Mistral Charger...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Weren't we all saying last draft how it was really broken because you could just hold on to your 6th land and get a cheaper eternal witness? I think you made the suggustion to change it :P

    Probably? I'd lean toward it being better when you miss, like a 2/1 but smaller or static pump

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    This is basically all hypothetical, since Act came in just a day ago, but hey, those are the reasons why I added it! :P I think I'm on the Marsh Flats stay open train here. Garruk is a strong signal for green being open, but Green/White dudes isn't really my bag. I think Flesh Carver is an...

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    See these are the kind of sentences I like :D Blasphemous act interacts better with our picks than you think. Mom survives it, or lets a crucial threat survive it (The Mom in my cube only taps 3 times), as does Valerous Stance, and Battle Screech makes it cheap. There's enough ways to get...

    It's just phrasing you hear a lot in the powermax crack a packs. "Well, there's not really a decision here, so lets try and suss out what there would be if some of the cards in my cube weren't drastically more powerful than others"

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    I love that I most often hear this when there's Power or Jitte in the pack :P Probably murderous cut? I don't think there's anything here that really blows my lid on power level, so cut is the card that keeps me the most open

    You're probably right, but I'm hoping more for an earlier spell that specifically doesn't trade all that often, rather than the slightly later spell with 2 power. You figure 1 would be okay? Colorless Flying Sylvan Ranger? I guess Sylvan Ranger kinda sucks... Super Greedy :P Again, it just...
