    Would you play an enchatnment that does what it does at :g::g::1:?

    General Does Anyone Actually like Traditional Black Aggro?

    There are a few problems with this deck: 1) Nothing in it can block. From Shadow Guys to more traditional gravecrawler style guys, you suck if you are EVER on the back foot. 2) Everything costs you life. Until recently every black aggro creature cost life, so the downside of your isaumaru was...

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

    Yeah, but I don't like skyshroud elite since your opponent can play around it to make it useless (Ie 1 power). This is at least kinda a decision on your part. I'd run multiple experiment one FWIW. They certainly combine well

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    I'm running 4 wasteland, but that's less of a "I want this cube to look like legacy" and more "Man, tectonic edge sucks" Thats actually why you'll find people love the dual/fetch landbase, since fetchlands have an absurdly high ratio of decks they support (Flooded Strand in Naya for eg)

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    While I don't utility draft, everyone getting a wasteland seems a little lukewarm. It's not even a land every deck wants, given color requirements or control decks sometimes not caring. I doubt people will hate it (Assuming they're on board with wasteland in the first place, I know people who...

    How does this guy sound? Street Tough :g: Creature - Human Rogue ~ gets +1/+2 as long as you control a nonbasic land 1/1 Yeah it probably makes more sense if you don't control a nonbasic, but that's not the kind of behavior I want to incentiveize.

    FlowerSunRain's Cube

    Mark of Fury might be worth trying? People like fires right? I do have a 2/2 can't block with Bestow :2::r::r: who's been sweet. He hasn't been bestowed on an opponent's guy yet, but I imagine when he does it'll be sweet

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Sure, but I don't see much reason to overlap them. Sure honor the pure is cool with both Gather the Townsfolk and Fencing Ace, but it's not the reason you wanna play fencing ace. Double Strike is kinda like heroic but good Also I still maintain there aren't any good mass pump spells.

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    I support cackler #2 as well. Tattermunge maniac has been decent for me, but nothing over the moon. I've got a second Dryad Militant FWIW Jesus what is your multicolor density? And yes, count shit like that loam lion.

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Am I just using the wrong terminology or do you ligit not enjoy activating Spikeshot Elder for 5 point burn spells? :P

    Go figure, I thought it was just red and black.

    General Giving White things to do

    Admittedly Jason, Nacatl never outsizes a 3/3, so if he is actually becoming a 4/4 or 5/5, that might be the reason. That can be hard to beat, assuming conditional removal and all

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    In defense of spikeshot elder: he's a pump with the double strike deck. him into rancor or bonesplitter can be hard to beat. he's most of the way I've tied red to that deck. also keep windbrisk heights in. it's practically free, so even if it doesn't get activated all that often, it can still...
