Oh man I missed this: I read "Kodama" and my mind immediately thought "Kamigawa is Jank," but I guess I didn't actually read the card because this is really cool! It kind of gives all of your spells a weird version of cascade.

We have even more bloody leaks from the same source as yesterday. Apparently this person bought the packs from the original leaked listing and is now sharing their pulls, which is pretty neat. I'm surprised this guy is a partner- he seems like the type of commander Timmies would love as a...

Don't worry, I wrote a big "put vs. placed" thing before I realized the ruling had changed as well. I only noticed the difference when I saw the comprehensive rules had changed to exclude the word "placed."

WOTC changed the oracle for those abilities some time between 2016 and 2018, so now all cards talking about counters say "put" as opposed to "placed." For example, this is the current oracle text for the Fairgrounds Trumpeter: So, for example, Hardened Scales|KTK with "placed" wording becomes...

They can't actually sac the treasures you give them with the trigger since the ability all happens as one unit. They never have a chance to respond between when they get a hold of the treasure and when they lose the life and discard the card(s). They can sacrifice any treasures you give them in...

I think your wording is good, as per this clause from the Comprehensive Rules: The way you worded this card is very clean and concise. As it stands, the card is perfect for Anthroplasming. You might want to change it to specify that a counter was put on a creature you control. The current...

The green artifacts deck is more of a green-based +1/+1 counters strategy making use of Modular cards and other good artifact counters payoffs, so I wasn't really thinking about this as an enabler when I was writing the article. Stirrings is probably a good option if you decide to implement this...

The leak sheet has been updated with more cards! Encore was apparently mis-translated in the original leak, it actually reads: So, that's actually better than the original translation, which only repeated the card's effect and didn't bring it back from the grave. I don't think this changes the...

Not really. Most creatures in cube die to Wicked Wolf, so often ends up being either Nekrataal or Impale in Green provided the target has 3 or less toughness. The food stuff is trinket text.

Flametongue Kavu Giant Killer Wicked Wolf :p

That's a deep cut...

I'm not a big fan of this guy. While he definitely has explosive potential, there are a few problems I see with him that I think will make him not very good in most environments. First, a bunch of cards leaving the yard at once still only make a single zombie (provided the translation on this...

We Have Leeks! Neat! We also have some cards leaks! Source Pictures I want to go over some of the good ones! Encore is a new mechanic which lets you recycle abilities from your graveyard. This seems good for cubes with a graveyard element. This particular guy seems all around a bit...

Ah, I see you're a person of culture ;)

I'm working on a post about kicker cards, and I'm wondering what some of your favorite options from sets other than Zendikar Rising have been. I'm partial to Burst Lightning and Kavu Titan variants myself. Wolfbriar elemental also seems cool, but a little on the strong side.

I think Shatterskull Smashing is extremely overrated. While the card is indeed very powerful, most of the card's ability to slot into any red deck comes from the fact that it can come into play untapped. 3 mana for 1 damage is not very good, and while the ability for the card to scale up to a...

It's not like this is a bad product- people are only upset because mechanically unique cards are being released through a limited release drop. If this were "Signature Spellbook: The Walking Dead," available online or at your local game store, I think there would be a lot fewer complaints about...

Worm Harvest Worm Harvest has been a very popular card here on riptide over the years, and there's not doubt that it can be a good card. Here's the thing- I've never had a chance to play with it before! I was wondering if someone who has played this before can explain to me how this card's play...

I would argue the opposite position of both Erik and Blacksmithy- I do not believe Primal Might is a worthwhile cube inclusion, while Inscription of Abundance is a fairly reasonable choice. I've cooled over time in regards to fight spells being reasonable removal in cube environments. While...
