I've been playing this card in my Cube recently since it was a powerful standard card back in the day, and I think it's ok. A lot of this card's power came from having multiple copies in decks that were ramping a ton with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. It was possible to be making three 2/2s a turn...

That's not how WOTC designs enchantment creatures anymore. For original Theros only, the Enchantment creatures were all given enchantment-like effects to fit the "gift from the gods" flavor that they were attempting to capture. However, in subsequent uses of enchantment creatures, they've chosen...

I gotchu fam: This probably isn't exactly what you're looking for, but I have played with this several times over the past couple years and the gameplay is just really good. It's the only member of this Mage cycle I haven't wanted to redesign at this point.

Pretty easy companion here. Companion is: -A playable aggro card. -Not parasitic to any one archetype. -Has relevant types. -Is a dog. That last point alone is really enough to push it over if you can only pick one TBH.

{1}{G} or no guts.

I used to play this archetype back in the day, and it was fun, but it was always just small package as part of a larger mana-dork-based ramp deck. Arbor Elf, Utopia Sprawl, and Wild Growth are already cards anyone trying to make a consistent early ramp deck work would likely be playing...

I laughed out loud reading this :D

I don't agree with this assessment after having played with these cards over the weekend. Most of these cards are expensive enough to channel, even with cost reduction, that they can be a bit clunky to use as anything other than lands. I had Otawara, Soaring City in my prerelease deck, and I...

I mean, the only reason people are excited about this card is that it's a powerful engine that doesn't need a lot of extra support to be good. I would say yes.

I think my answer should be pretty obvious... There were so many cool cards! I can't fit them all!

Great post as always parker! This is actually something I've done in the current version of my own Cube to some extent. I will say, though, that I'm not 100% pleased with the results. But first, I need to give you some context because my decision-making process in this matter came from a...

That's basically where I am with counters. While there are a lot of interesting cards that have the word counter on them, they all just kind of feel a bit surfacy. Sure, there are plenty of good cards that just happen to use counters, which would indicate the mechanic is good for making into a...

Devoted Druid Swift Reconfiguration Infinite mana all thanks to cupholders.

That's arguably more of an upside than anything. It's really efficient for killing big chunky creatures, but it doesn't remove important engine pieces in synergy decks.

Mirrorshell Crab This looks surprisingly good with Daretti.

Syndic of Tithes is likely a little better and a little more interesting because you have control over both the life gain and the life gain. Suture Priest can drain or gain a wildly variable amount depending upon what kind of deck it is in and what kind of deck the opponent is playing. Syndic of...
