Say what you want about the B/W Saga, it still isn't better than Dennis.

We're seeing more of the Uncommon Land Cycle today: Karfell Port Land Karfell Port enters the battlefield tapped. {T}: Add {U} to your mana pool. {3}{U}{B}{B}, {T}: Sacrifice Karfell Port: Mill four cards, then return a creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped. Surtland...

This is quite possibly the best card in the set. It's a really powerful aggro dude in the sense that it can create a board state all by itself. While I think it's a little fragile as a 2/1, that's not really important on a Savannah Lion that makes an army by itself. It usually adds at least...

Pact of Negation plays poorly in my experiences with the card. Even if you pay the mana, you still often lose the game on the subsequent turn(s). It is literally only good if it is protecting a winning card or combo that will finish the game before the {3}{U}{U} comes due.

This is one of the better cards we've seen spoiled so far. It's like Young Pyromancer, but it makes flying tokens whenever you cast any second spell as opposed to only triggering off of instants and sorceries. I think this is going to be good in aggressive White strategies in cube. It's probably...

Thanks, I hate reading those.

This seems pretty good. It's not great by any means, but a steady stream of card draw in black midrange decks that can also be a finisher that draws a card if you can't keep it online seems like a nice meme to me. This feels a lot better than Thor on its base rate in my view.

Soul-Scar Mage's prowess is way more relevant than any of the text on Thor's front end. It was the best aggro prowess creature other than Monastery Swiftspear when it was printed, and it goes a long way to making Spells Matter decks truly viable. Only one Prowess dude has surpassed Soul-Scar...

MmmmmmMMmmm good cards. Archon of Sun's GraceRestoration AngelBasri's LieutenantAngel of CondemnationAcademy RectorArena Rector I was hoping to list off like 10 awesome cards but I forgot how shallow White 4s are :( Luckily, I think this new White 4-drop card is cool and will be great when...

This card hasn't been good in 10 years.

This can copy Planeswalkers, but you can't control both copies. I wish this was templated more like Spark Double where it can copy walkers and both versions stick around. However, this card is an absolute meme because it can copy any permanent. Want to copy sagas? Done. Broken artifacts...

Honestly you don't need to go deep on utility for them to be good- if you have landfall and whatnot they are fine for themselves especially because they become big beaters afterwards. If you want to add more powerful utility lands to complement these, I think Inventors' Fair, Maze of Ith...

Some other cool cards that can lead to Simic draw-go style decks: Void Grafter Prophet of Kruphix Fleetfeather Cockatrice Horizon Chimera

I wonder how many equipments one would need in their deck before this card becomes viable. The art on this is too fun to pass up!

How? I just said anyone here would probably already know how to do that. Heck, that's arguably what I'm trying to do with my cube right now! Granted, I'm simply trying to evoke the feeling of a specific standard format and not any one set, but I think the same basic principle applies. There...

I upset some guy on instagram because I said this probably wasn't good in vintage cube. He didn't listen, which is fine, but then he called me close minded and my cube (which he has never even seen) boring. Because I said a 7 mana 6/6 that doesn't immediately do anything was not going to be good...

That's also what I was referring to, I should have been clearer with my verbiage. Sorry for the confusion!

I feel like that's something you'd want to find a larger outlet with which to share. I'm not sure anyone here (who isn't lurking) would really have an issue with making a set cube. Perhaps apply to become a CubeCobra content creator and post it there?

If I remember correctly (which I do because I checked :p) we had like a 9 day back and forth about this. Side note: I love the World Tree. It's a hilarious card.

I kind of like this card. It's like a reverse Tiana, Ship's Caretaker. It's a bit unfortunate that Koll only gives Tokens +1/+1 when they are enchanted or equipped- it would have been nice if he also gave that benefit to normal creatures. Still, he may be a playable equipment lord.
