    I'm voting for splinter twin, but not for the reasons the author described. I think it adds an interesting tie for red to the classic (usually bant) blink deck, and twinning reveillarks or Acidic Slimes is bound to lead to some interesting decks. It also solves both problems that crystal shard...

    So if I Mask of the Mimic my face down Meloku "Illusion" Token to go find Illusion // Reality and put it into the battlefield, what happens?

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    You kidding? I hate loam! All it does IMO is lead to repetitive board states a la wastelock, or justify otherwise shitty cards which are heaps upon heaps of card disadvantage for not enough power (See sphinx above) I'll admit the engine with cycling lands is cool, but I still haven't found...

    General Auras: Do they all suck?

    My answer is the make more of the removal sorcery speed, so that you at least get one good swing out of a given piece. The absolute worst case on armadillo cloak being Kinda like a sorcery Moment of Heroism, but guaranteed to resolve. Problem is there's really only one good doom blade...

    Some big thing about the prevelence of midrange and green I bet

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    what if it were like a 1/4? That would emphasize the rampy aspect and not make it so much more than raging ravine

    yeah I'm not sure what the correct cost for "some damage, rampant growth, buyback 0" is, since the cards not mine :P It seems a little low

    How are we about :1::b::r: it becomes a ball lightning? (Not for constructed, obviously)

    General 'walkers and "everything costs 4"

    Yeah it' intentional. If you want to ramp more than 2 turns at once, it'd better cost 4 or be easily killable (Joraga Treespeaker, etc)

    General 'walkers and "everything costs 4"

    Not uncastable, just hard. Also didn't you cut relic? I've swapped it for worn powerstone for power reasons. Actually I think it's palidium myr right now because creatures are sweet :P

    Oh, I should also mention both Sheoldred and Mikeaeus "The Podfather" Unhallowed are awsomesauce.

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    This is hilarious, my buddies are the exact opposite: They kinda loathe playing out the games :P It's never even a forgone conclusion, they just love the draft process with all the sweet sweet cards

    General Cube supplies (sleeves, storage etc.)

    Dragon Shield, though I've not used KMC. I hear they're both awesome, so whatever you can buy easier in bulk. In terms of boxes, while the typical white longbox is a solid cheap standard, the Holiday Gift boxes they sold last year (and again this year, with theros packs) make for some really...

    Man, am unlikely to traverse Toronto :p (Sorry Eric!) Edit: To those wondering, given our respective places on the subway line, it might take as long as 2 full hours for me to get to where Eric usually holds cube drafts. Edit 2: BECAUSE CANADA'S... REALLY... BIG!!

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    I like to live on the wild side anyways. At one point my cube had a card in it that said "Creatures you control are clone" They can clone different stuff, they can be themselves, they can clone creatures that have since died... ALL YOUR DUDES Needless to say it was removed due to memory issues

    oh man who was doing the manlands? It's actually a way for a GU land to ramp! (And be a wincondition :P)

    Massacre Wurm is the boss by the way. Sweet with pod, usually domes them for 6 when he comes into play, huge synergy with wrath (So....take 10? :P)

    General Giving White things to do

    Triple, but close enough :P You guys are all 20/~360, so I'm 30/540, with duals, shocks and filters to round it out.

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    True. Really I just don't like skyshroud elite because if it ever really matters in the early game, it's a 1/1 at your opponent's request (most of the time. Some people have the 14 nonbasic draft, but that's less likely unless zach is involved) Is there a nice middle ground? Street Tough is...
