Holding up that much mana to reciprocate doesn't seem that great in much other than a control deck, where the anthemn would be bad. Sadly, being an artifact is a huge downside, since now it opens up red as a color that can answer it as well, let alone the viridian shaman crew. Also for those...

Also: Would you play a GG1 4/2 Flash? I dunno, I might...

I'll admit white certainly has it's glut. Elspeth, Ajani, x2 Armageddon, Wrath/Day... I've always found the creatures to be more interchangeable, since bloody nothing emulates walkers or Armageddon, but the exact difference between hero of bladehold and emeria angel is by inches at best. Blue...

This is of course fine if you consider anthemn to be a good magic card (Which I do not)

Horrible :P

I will say that since you choose the piles and they choose the cards it's patently worse (Since relying on your opponent to make an uninformed decision about the cards you want is easy) But then again, RU is kinda a wasteland right now, so maybe it gets played anyways. Worse or not, it's totally...

Part of my thing is that if you don't use cycles for everything, you're pigeonholing a color pair into a deck type (Slightly sure, but still) since if there's a RW painland, there's less likely to be a RW control deck. The horizon canopies were my attempt to find another cycle both aggro and...

What are people's thoughts on the scry lands? I love the idea of that much decision going into a land drop, but I'm sad they ETB tapped. Currently I have these: Shock/Fetch/Fetch/Dual Filter Horizon Canopy I kinda wanna swap out the canopies, but I'm not sure if this is the right swap.

Which ones? :P

The above "cheating" works like this: Activate Glaciers in the middle of your opponent's end step Since "end of turn" effects have already triggered, thawing glaciers will bounce during your end of turn untap and activate it again. Add Garruk Wildspeaker for fun and profit. Honestly, I...

I'm down with omenspeaker. Auger of Bolas never really lit it up for me, and the day they give blue wall of blossoms I'll gladly make the switch, but I think she seems good. Need more non 2/1's anyways. And yes, I could just double up on Ludvik's Test Subject, but that seems boring.

Blue is where I find the biggest glut of 4's (Every walker, value counterspell, draw spell and control magic. JEEZ) I think I need to take a chainsaw to my cube sometime. I think GR2 and BR2 are probably the 2 most common mana costs on playable multicolor cards ever. It really makes me sad...

Try some of the cards from coldsnap with recover: Grim Harvest

I know this is horribly biased, but my inital reaction was "Motherfucker, seriously? Another RG2 card? You do know there are other mana costs right?" Missing an ult is a big minus, as is being 2 colors, but his tokens are better in a goldfish. given the ubiquity of bears in the average cube...

If one of the gods ends up being playable, my money is on the red guy. He seems the closest to being playable just as an enchantment, as that trigger is practically unique in magic.

Other than force of will (Same Block) Edit: And Necropotence (Too many reprints)

Duals that mill you :P Eg: tundra, Mill 3 on ETB

Well sure, but that was just a mistake, back in the day. Grizzly Bears was in Alpha after all. What are people's thoughts on the Merfolk Token guy? I hate the pro red, but I think Sengir Autocrat gets much better if it makes 2/1s Sad that you can't blink it though.

I thought you were going to take out the sac clause too.

Oh into the utility draft. (Thing is sweet in green decks btw, that blew my mind) I'm aware the slippery slope argument is a nombo, I'm just wondering what your personal line is. I kinda like it being just lands. 2 drop accellerators are pretty insane, I'd probably leave them out. (I don't...
