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

    Yes, title stolen from that wretched hive of scum and villainy, the MTG Salvation Forums (Source). As we all know, card design is part of design. And cube design is also part of design. Exercising one can help the other (In my case more directly, since some of these cards may make it into my...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Graveyard Hate

    Maybe Cremate? I dunno. I love scavenging ooze. If wizards prints more cards like that I'm gonna be a happy boy. I love the flexability: he's key against graveyard based decks, but as a decent value guy against normal decks he's still great!

    Blood in the watering can seems interesting. The thought of turning my fetchlands into raise deads seems sweet. However, since painlands exist, I can't see that card being less than 5 mana. :( I thought the Mummy card was sweet, but then I re-read it. It's less Sulfuric Vortex, more Eternity...

    Yeah I too mostly use twitter as a viewing platform rather than a communications one. I'm @TheBakaist

    I'm all happy for another article if it convinces people to be a little more flexible with their cube. I secretly think that everyone who has kird ape in their red section just wants another Red/Green card and can't bring themselves to just break their own rules. That comment about blue is...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    RE: checklands, you mean Glacial Fortress? I've always called them buddy lands (Bring your buddy, come into play untapped). That could work. They're the land I use when I'm less sure of what the color pair will do, like blue/black and green/black, as opposed to the fastlands for more aggro color...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    That's some high praise there, thank you! As for the custom card thread: I wholly support this endeavor (but need to go to bed) I may have some 40 odd designs here, but I've got a file stored away of less polished/not currently relevant designs that's probably around 200 strong.

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Planeswalkers are hard man! Good catch on Drakken. I'm wondering if I could make it so that he has no ultimate, making the card advantage plus ability a less relavant fact. The three of them (Drakken, Unknowable and Lyra) are all in here because bant has the lion's share of powerful...

    The way I have them worded, you can opt to not pay life for godless shrine's trigger, then pay life for the fetch's trigger, which will untap them.

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Yeah, you may be right :p Whelp, prepare to be BOMBARDED BY IMAGES! How do we feel about the shock fetches? Are they really worth having in, or do both control and aggro like the original fetches enough that I should just double up?

    My personal favorite is MTGIsland for online retailers. Eric, this is relevant to you since it's based in toronto, so in-store pickup is real nice. The selection is a little shabby, but the price is second to none. I don't even wanna count how many sweet cube foils I've gotten for under a...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Yeah I haven't uploaded them all yet ^_^ Patience! :P I feel that way about cultist ringleader as well. Not so huge a fan of rando-landwalk (since it's kinda uninteractive) or activated first strike (unless it's cheap. B might work, but 2 mana is just so painful for the curve), but like I said...

    Sweet! I'm doing a few on my lunch break every now and again. Gideon probably shouldn't come 8th. I'll see if I can get the discussion up on here sometime today/tommorow, since there are 52 cards missing from my cube list atm (Custom cards)

    Poor Ash Zealot :P Accidentally Hosing the Gravecrawler deck. Interesting to see Reckoner and Blasphemous Act coming in. Is that more for funsies, or was there a specific impetus behind that?

    Favorite Card Overall: Ancestral Mask. When I quit magic for the first time, the only thing I kept was a 250 card G/W enchantress aggro deck, based largely around this card and another favorite: Armadillo Cloak. Going back through gatherer and finding all the sweet auras I'd missed in my...
