Cubers cut 4 drops and start playing 1 drops challenge

Personally, I think most of these cards are uninspiring. I think the only one I would actively want to put into a deck is Dokuchi Silencer, as that card is both decent in it's own right but also has a bunch of cool synergies with the discard deck. However, Dokuchi Shadow-Walker might actually...

I totally agree! Cycling should be evergreen, but it’s not because it’s “too generic” from a flavor perspective. I want more cycling more often!!

I’ve got some bad news for you…

Flapper Elspeth? Flapper Elspeth. Only way this card art could be better is if she was on a Train (which to be fair, she could be in the full version— this is an edited version for the pack art). Also, it’s nice to see Elspeth with a smile on her face, she really deserves it after being...

Theorycrafting some Improvements. Before we begin, It's important to note that the version of the cube I will be discussing can be found at the link below: >>Cube Version in Question<< So, first I want to go over several things that have worked well. What Worked 1) The Uneven Gold Section...

FULL ART BASICS RETURN!! THE PLAINS ON THE RIGHT HAS ART DECO TRAINS!!

New Capenna! Cycling Triomes! My wallet cries but my body is ready! Borderless treatment! Skyscraper frame! I love this look! Rest of the cycle!! New Ascendency Cycle too!!!

It's going to be happening on April 29th, 2022 when Streets of New Capenna is released :D

Oh I totally agree that Lunarch Veteran was a nice roleplayer in Midnight Hunt limited. I just don't think the price structure is really conducive to where my white creatures want to be. 1/1 creatures in this format need to have some relevant synergies or else they just get left behind in this...

Just wanted to stop by and say I don't think Saga is a particularly healthy low-power card. While it's definitely less busted in low power than it is in Modern/Legacy, I think it just provides a ton of value for something that can be played for 0 mana. I think if you want to try it (and...

Hey thanks for the input! I think you're correct in saying that the disturb cards I'm currently looking at aren't great fits for the Cube from a power perspective (there's a reason why I'm not playing them :-P), but I think they are the cards that fit the best with my goals. They all have some...

Right, it's hard to choose the right balance of utility lands to fixing to spells. I think my original theory behind the MDFCs was that they were going to be cards you wanted to play as spells roughly as often as you wanted to play them as lands, which just doesn't feel like the case. I think...

Digging Through Time Part 5&7/8ths I'm still not in a position where I'm ready to write the actual article series about this Cube so here we are again, talking about mechanics! I'm going to actually share the list this time because I already have a working version of the Cube that I've been...

All this deck needs is an Urza's Bauble and we'd be off to the races!

Currently, my most expensive card is the Tolarian Academy I inherited from my cousin. Tolarian Academy Fun fact, the idea that sparked my 360/100 Contest Storm Cube was an earlier attempt to build a "budget" broken cards cube to match with my Tolarian Academy. I promptly abandoned that project...

Why do you always accuse people of trolling when they disagree with you? You asked for additional evidence to pass the trial you set, and I did that. That's not trolling, I was trying to engage in this conversation in good faith. It's like you don't want to admit that my position has merit so...

Flavor is an integral part of Magic's design. Without the fantasy skin over the game, everything would just be a bunch of numbers and markers to indicate game function. That's not a flaw, it's arguably the reason why Magic was able to become successful in the first place. Likewise, there are...

I don't think this is a hot take at all, drafting this set has felt less like playing a retail booster draft and more like playing a Cube. They did a really good job of layering the archetypes and keeping the format open-ended while still having very in-depth synergy decks.
