May i ask why you dislike morph so much? My playgroup loves the poker-like element it provides

I could see green being in neither madness nor flashback. But I really really hope it is in one at least. Also new morphs are always welcome too.

I think the highest power version of Wildfire is this card in my experience, because it leaves absolutely no way back for you opponent(s). Devastation If you combine it with some kind of finisher that doesn't die to it (Tuktuk the Explorer, Chimeric Mass) it works out like a 2-card win combo...

This one is really interesting. I don't want to include a 5-color domain archetype, but having a single build around seems like it could bring more variance into drafts with ease. I once had this guy in my cube: Etched Monstrosity He didn't got drafted a lot, but I could see bringing him...

That artwork is so ... prehistoric. Could be from an old "dino-book" I've had as a kid. Damn I love old mtg art.

Reclamation has been really strong for us, even before the life gain theme went in. It works great with both, dredge and sacrifice strategies, which are common for black in my meta. In the right deck, it is like a reuseable Eladamri's Call. In black. That gets the same creature again after it...

People define build-arounds very differently. For some, they are just cards, that can work as signposts or payoffs for an archetype. I for one prefer a little more strict definition. For the sake of this thread, lets agree on some characteristics: - It completely shapes the way you draft...

Phyrexian Reclamation Slaughter Two of my favorites, because they are so easily scaleable. That makes it so, that they are useful without but become better with more life gain.

Captain of the Watch

Reserved for deck examples and more

I've noticed that some users here are interested in this archetype, but are also unsure, if they want to add it to there cube. So I thought I could share my experiences a little bit and list the upsides and downsides of this archetype, and how it can be realized successfully. Basically, the...

I'm pretty convinced it is a great card. When black was still an aggro color in my cube I ran Tormented Soul, which was already strong. And I still have Soltari Foot Soldier in white. People always how much damage 1-power 1-drops with evasion can make. Even without pump and equipment, they...

Okay, I finally figured it out, I'm going to give these cards a run: Watcher for Tomorrow Bogardan Dragonheart Mother Bear Rain of Revelation Goblin War Party Winding Way Watcher is a great blink payoff and a 2-drop that's useful for every deck. The Dragonheart might be the Nantuko Husk red...

Upheaval

Hard to evaluate but testworthy is my judgment. There's another "pile" card that I like more than e.g. a regular edict. Do or Die

No idea. M20 is really not as resonant and elegant as a core set should be

I'm afraid of this, since I like aggro, and I do 3 things to prevent that from happening: 1) I try to limit the chunks of life you gain to smaller ones. That means Martyr of Dusk or Syndic of Tithes instead of Nearheath Pilgrim where possible. So it's more about triggering the Pridemates...

Itsa me again, ravnic! Drogskol Reaver How low-powered is this guy even? I mean it is a 7-mana gold card, so t should be good, but I fear the double draw could be a little harsh maybe? The good points: I think this guy could make people add white to the mostly {U/B} or {U/R} control decks...

I copypaste them from the card image gallery from wizards

life gain surely is a little more narrow than lets say a token theme, but not as much as one might think. We just stumbled upon it basically, realizing how many sources we had already in the colors, mainly for other reasons. Soul Warden was in there for tokens and to some degree blink, Blood...
