    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I like the name Onyxwrits, but I agree with you that the Plural "writs" is not good. I would change it to Onyxwrit, Onyxwright, or Onyxwrought, personally. I like the other names you came up with, especially Rootspire!

    Yeah, it really hasn't been a main point here over the past ~3 years since MTGS has been so diminished in popularity as of late. When people here think "Powermax," they're usually thinking of poorly-balanced Vintage Cubes that are essentially just a pile of generically "good" cards in a box...

    General What can green do that's not ramp?

    Green is very effective at inserting your library into your graveyard: Satyr Wayfinder Mulch Winding Way Grapple with the Past It tends to use that resource as a source of card or mana advantage: Honored Hydra Call of the Herd Voracious Typhon Hooting Mandrills

    Oh gosh golly I made a boo-boo. So assuming an 80 card deck that boils down to ~18 lands and 8-ish ramp spells (I'm counting the Quandrix Cultivators and Binding the Old Gods as ramp, although I could see not counting binding in this grouping because it also doubles as a kill spell). And like...

    General Fight Club

    Falkenrath Aristocrat more because it has haste, doesn't grow unless you specifically have humans, and is all-around easier to deal with. Immerstrum Predator snowballs out of control really quickly, and I don't find that play pattern to lead to good gameplay.

    Both are very fun. They 0ffer very different play experiences, but are both nice because they're not particularly bomb-focused. As long as you draft a good deck as opposed to a pile of random cards, you can win.

    I think you're kind of missing the point. From what I understood, the point was that 7-drops are not cards that every deck can be expected to play, because not every deck can naturally support getting 7 mana sources into play over the course of an average game. In all of the examples you gave...

    It seems like it could be interesting in your multiplayer environment, but I don't know if it will be actually good.

    Dom's Stream of Consciousness

    Apparently the reason why they name Core Sets a year ahead but keep Commander products on the current year has to do with how big-box retailers like Target and Walmart stock their shelves. If a product has a name with the past year, those stores will tend to stop stocking the product and might...

    Honestly I'm not sure I like the idea of using member emotes at all (especially since 3/4 of the people with emotes right now aren't even active users anymore and might not even come back ever).

    General Forum upgrade: tomorrow at some point (Sunday, April 25th)

    Can we remove the "Last Edited" feature? I liked being able to go back and fix spelling mistakes on posts from two years ago without anyone noticing ;).

    That's not a difference between Classic Riptide and Cube Brainstorming Discord (CBD) philosophy in terms of outcome, that's a difference in individual design goals. Sirfunchalot's Cube is definitely focused on allowing players to draft decks that kind of feel like constructed decks, while a Cube...

    I'm not sure what I have to say is relevant to the main argument here, but I may have something to contribute. 1. Young Pyromancer isn't needed everywhere anymore. He's a good card no matter what, but cubes without a spells-matter archetype or a billion cantrips and burn spells won't necessarily...
