This is definitely a contender for the best piece of art in the set, which is really saying something considering the high quality of many of the Mystical Archive and Japanese region exclusive artworks.

This card is really good, and not just because the warlock is wearing a killer outfit! A black Young Pyromancer is surprisingly useful. Black is very removal heavy and will usually be able to trigger this on a regular basis. Sedgemoor Witch seems especially good in discard-heavy Dreadhorde...

I think we agree about the MDFCs, but you are severely underestimating the power level of the other mechanics in this set.I also have a high powered cube, and Magecraft looks like it is going to be great in mine without requiring any archetype adjustments. I also know people with decks-not-cards...

Well, I think your current avatar is a bit iconic at this point. That said, I like the pun that your name means submarine and the first avatar is a picture of a submarine sandwich, and I think the second avatar looks cool. Of course, the obvious option is to make your avatar your Minecraft...

OnderZeeBoot? Nah, Onder C Boot.

This card seems great: Make a 5/4 and wish for a spell? Sign me up!

I heavily disagree with you on this point. While the limited environment for this set seems to be promoting the casting of large spells, the majority of the cube worthy cards out of this set are efficient creatures and cheap interaction. Of the cube worthy cards I remember off the top of my...

You could try something like Dinosaurs where your decks focus on making a few large tokens as opposed to an army of 1/1s. Tokens, generally speaking, are not conducive of unclogged boards I'm afraid.

The big issue with the DFCs from Kaldheim and Strixhaven is that too many of them are wordy. The best thing about the MDFCs from Zendikar rising was that they were flexible and they were simple. If you knew what Tangled Florahedron and Tangled Vale did, you knew how the land side behaved for...

I think there is definitely enough here to justify a lesson/learn package for some cubes.

So it looks like my Simic section is going to become a Quandrix section. They've printed a ton of great Simic Quandrix cards in this set that are of effectively the exact power level at which I wish to build.

Grillo's article on the matter. It's the precursor to all modern design.

If you want to see something that's actually from Harry Potter... It's not quite the same, but an Owl-Shaped Letter is only like one degree away from a Letter delivered by an Owl, right?

I think you still have to be a couple of tiers below powermax to build a traditional Riptide style cube, but it is entirely possible to build decks-not-cards formats higher these days. I actually think a true powermax cube (a powered cube that's not running Bad Cards or 90's Nostalgia in favor...

"Baneslayer" in this sense just refers to a large creature that is only played for it's body and not any passive/activated abilities.

We found Timmy.

That's a massive bloody baneslayer o_O

I think you may have misunderstood what I was trying to communicate here. I was not trying to insinuate that high power formats lacked flexibility completely several years ago. Rather, I was just trying to make the point that new cards being printed has allowed for more strategies to become...

Yeah, it started around that time period. The evolution into low-power with things such as the Penny-Pincher cube didn't truly take over the site until 2016-17, when WOTC had finally gained a grasp on modern limited set design during a streak of several powered-down standard sets. For example...
