    Card/Deck Someone sell me on Birthing Pod (but first, long backstory)

    Okay you might have just sold me on epochrasite :P I run the walls, a custom butcher ghoul, Geist and Myr, but Lone Missionary I cut because he never really did anything and temple acolyte seems much worse. Also mogg war marshal is in a weird spot for me too. One of those cards that might be...

    Card/Deck Someone sell me on Birthing Pod (but first, long backstory)

    That was an extreme example of my players misplaying it :P Like I said, I won that game off the back of a single removal spell. There's probably steps I could take to jam more ETB guys, but I usually have trouble at 2CC, which might even be a lost cause. There's only so many voice of...

    General It's time to put your cube on a diet

    I always wished flicker cards had more of an offensive use like emerge unscathed Like you can flicker a blocker, but thats not always enough and sometimes (Like with otherworldly journey) it's actively bad

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Well in a cube without aggro decks it'll be hard to nudge people away from durdly multicolor midrange decks won't it? :P What are they going do to, draft combo?

    Card/Deck Someone sell me on Birthing Pod (but first, long backstory)

    I wish feeder was good on it's own, but when he's good he's REALLY good.If I've got extra mana in my sac decks, putting 1-2 counters on him post combat is strong (Much less so with bloodsoaked champion)

    Card/Deck Someone sell me on Birthing Pod (but first, long backstory)

    I might want to cut down to 3/450. My drafters are seriously cautious about trying it, and try to commit a little too hard to it when they do play it. I mean I'm not an amazing player, but back when pod was in modern, I don't think this was one of those common lines of play: T1: Elvish Mystic...

    Thinking of deep cuts to 540 list

    I mean, assuming I can't convince you to proxy (Which you should do, cube is expensive and anyone who complains about your proxies should make their own damn multi-thousand dollar piece of paper then bring it to public spaces and draft it with strangers. I had a friend quit cubing when his pack...

    Why did I not think of this?!? Also InB4 Jason's super secret tech of taking a photo of your decklist to refer to :P

    General Terrible flavor texts

    For the lazy Eh. It could benifit from a healty dose of KISS, but I don't think its outright horrible, just mediocre.

    Thinking of deep cuts to 540 list

    There's plenty of cards (In cube or otherwise) that demand an answer, but the difference between problem Artifacts/Enchantments and problem Planeswalkers/Creatures is that every color can answer a walker (by attacking it) or a creature (since even green has creature removal). Having cards in...

    This basically. Birthing Pod is the Dark Souls of cube draft

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    I'm opting to actually work regeneration in there, so Wrath and Damnnation actually do kill it, but yes essentially :P

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    So this is embarrassing... Sturdy Gives the creature a shield counter, but removes a charge counter... Also it kinda doesn't work properly at present, since it doesn't actually specify you don't regenerate the creature if you can't remove that charge counter :P

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    Hey I never said you couldn't play control, just that nobody else had. For some reason everyone there gravitates toward Aggro (Well, the kind of aggro that has 3 six drops in it) or...bad pod? Dennix's GB Ramp deck was pretty good, if a bit golfishy. I think this was his only source of...
