    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I have seen this guy in some cubes here and I can't resist thinking of the possibilities ... Laboratory Maniac Have you guys really had some success with him? I don't want to give blue a Grey Ogre. How regularly can you actually win with his ability? How do the decks looks like, that utilize him?

    General The Draft Exchange

    Drafting your 375 ... p1p1 Reassembling Skeleton, then Spawning Pit. Get the engine going. But it turned out to be more of a dredge deck instead of a sacrifice deck. I love it, exactly my kind of favorite play style. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/885433[/url]"] Ones 1 Horror of the Broken Lands...

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    Braids is great, but I would pass a few cards that could encourage a similar strategy. So I'd go with Jace too, and I figured out the same reasoning Onderzeebot mentiones. I also had my eye on Hierach, Courser and Hero.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I think it is not quite Crystal Shard, but probably the best variant green has to offer. I had it shortly in my cube, but cut it because green simply didn't have the room for link support, since it already has so many archetypes it is involved in. Just make sure you run enough cheap EtB...

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    Really interesting answers, guys! I think there are at least 9 or 10 cards, you could make an argument for as a firstpick here. I'm surprised that noone has mentioned Earthquake, though, that's a really good sweeper, that can be okay as a fireball variant in an aggro deck.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It is definitely good enough. A huge flier, that is kinda removal proof, can act as a silver bullet for many things, and is often a 2-for-1. My favoriute white 5-drop is Geist-Honored Monk for it's archetype role in tokens and blink, and I will never cut my old school Serra Angel, buit if I were...

    Ooops, I'm sorry. Can a mod merge the threads maybe?

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I will also confirm, that Rise from the Tides is the coolest finisher for slightly lower power levels. With a high enough spell density, it could also work in a stronger environment I suppose. Beside that, I'm a huge fan of this card: Murder of Crows It's not only a huge flier, it also loots...

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    Since the last post is already three weeks old, I will give it a try with a pack from my cube: Got a pretty balanced pack here, curious what you guys woul do with it and why

    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    I would also pick Sneak Attack, usually, but there is also a Show and Tell, so it's possible that I would fight for cards for this kind of deck. So maybe, I would juts pick something like Abrade or Arid Mesa for a safe pick, waiting for the startegy that's open.

    General Maindeckable Graveyard Hate

    I have a really strong graveyard theme in my cube going on, cards like Reassembling Skeleton or Oath of Ghouls are legitimate first picks. As the title might suggest, I'm looking for cards, that can hate on graveyard starategies but are useful even when they don't. The power level doesn't have...

    General Fight Club

    It was good some times, mostly with a lot of bounce, but it's just not a cube card, I guess. Because mostly something simple like Murder of Crows would've just been better. Sadly, because Isperia is one of my alltime favorites, the artwork ist just stunningly beautiful. And I'm always keen to...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Razia's Purification Has anyone ever tried this or considered to do so? I love Wildfire.dec, but my powerlevel is not too high, so I figured, this could be a nice card for the deck. Maybe. I'm not sure though, if it is similar enough to really help the deck. Leaving your opponent with their...

    General Fight Club

    {W}{U}/x decks in my cube are usually Skies, Control or Blink, or sometimes hybrids between these archetypes. How would you guys rank the following multicolored 5-drops for such a cube? Cloudblazer Migratory Route Isperia the Inscrutable For further investigations, there would be a link in...

    General Interesting p1p1 white cards

    I am also interested in Enduring Renewal. How good can it actually be in cube and how can you get there?

    General The Draft Exchange

    Two propaganda effects, Crystal shard + Mystic Snake ... That's a mean deck, I love it! But why no Simic Growth Chamber? Drafting yours now ... P1P1 Sneak Attack This deck would've been alot better with a Crucible of Worlds or Magus of the Crucible, but I didn't see any. The cube is nice...

    General Optimal Draft Variants for Less than 8 Players

    We do it quite simple: With 2 players - 10 packs of 10 for both players - pick and pass regularly - discard the packs when 6 cards are left - 190 cards seen/40 cards drafted per player With 3 players - 7 packs of 10 for everyone - pick and pass regularly - discard the packs when 4 cards are...

    Card/Deck Artifact Sweepers

    I don't run any. I like keeping sweepers special to white, black and red. And blue can bounce multiple things at once.

    Drafting the Crumble Pie ... P1P1 Condescend from an unexciting pack, then drifted into {U}{R} for spells matter stuff. Considered a green splash, but the custom-tiger didn't wheel, so I stayed within two colors succesfully. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/877259[/url]"] Ones 1 Burst Lightning 1...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    And I think it is very important, that not every color gets good 1-drops/counterspells/efficient removal etc. Maybe I'm going to use the slot Wingcrafter holds at the moment to something else entirely. Unless I can get warm with the Stomrtamer maybe. I'm really happy with Cloudfin though...
