Oh, that's probably for the best. One thing less to distrct me from learning for my exams :D This set actually has the potential to keep me distracted quite a bit lol

Blood tokens in white would be more of a weird fit. I know there is one precedent and they've let off-color rummage happen for set mechanics, but still. I believe it's Junk. Btw, when today in European time will the debut stream start? Has been a while since I watched one of these with all the...

My entry: https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/c580b07c-a07b-4c8c-a748-60e5c05ba674?view=spoiler Work of the Wicked Wand of Vertebrae A tool made for growing graveyards. You know, it is quite hard to design a 180 card cube with a single card being 1/6 of it, because archetypes will quickly feel...

Personally, I am much more scared that, with the two hat-sets behind us and now an 80's world coming, and with omenpaths, that we'll soon see Urabrask and Chatterfang riding Skateboards together, wearing base caps and chewing bubble gum.

If you would've shown me that card five years ago I would've 100% believe it's from the magic multiverse. Now I know what the frame indicates and the set symbol has become known to me as another IP as well. See, I get that people are skeptical towards UB, so am I, for several reasons. I just...

Because it is nothing that you can tell by looking at a card. The mtg multiverse is such a broad concept, to be from it or not is totally arbitrary. East-Mark Cavalier Knight of Dawn's Light Illuminor Szeras Phyrexian Rager If you wouldn't have the background info, you could by no means tell...

But being UB or not doesn't really matter. There are so many, so different worlds in mtg, like Lorwyn and Mirrodin, even more so as New Phyrexia. If wizards would not use that horrible metallic frames, nobody who doesn't know anything about LotR or 40k could tell that these cards are...

I'll take a dozen D&D sets before I find the appeal in a single mtg set looking like the freakin' 80s. It's no rational behind this, I know, we've had sets playing on other past periods of our real world since forever, most of them are actually. But the 80s is just too close, non-mystical and...

Don't like that, takes away flavor, but whatever

Wow, I actually love all of this. It makes sense to have a core set for more than one year. And I like the Nyx frame used for enchantments. Minor nit-pick: Why does the cat say 'this creature' instead of 'Nine-Lives Familiar'?

Summer Update pt. 2 I think I found four more cards to change in order to improve the cube according to my goals. Out: Drowned Secrets In: Cryptic Command Drowned Secrets was never a good choice for the handful of cards that should push you towards mono blue and blue needs these cards to be...

As most of you might know, I try to make mono color decks possible in my cube, because they're cool. I do that mostly through ways that actually increase options for every drafter, like having a lot of colorless and hybrid cards and very few gold cards etc., but I also have 4-5 incentives per...

Do you want to have 'an Eldrazi cube' where at least two thirds of the decks care about casting some Eldrazi? because if you do, you should definitely include stuff like bouncelands and also colorless, because that'll be what people expect.In this cube I'd aim for the power level that lets me...

Leonardo Da Vinci is a really cool card. I like the full art and I don't dislike the idea of having a cool historical figure in my cube, BUT I can't run it. The reasoning that I see it as the next level of a spreading disease. I'd call 40 life sickness. This disease infests every card that has...

Cut white and add colorless. Last try ;)

I have considered the Prophet, but I decided against it for a very subjective reason: I loathe the artwork. It looks weird and also like the wrong kind of digital. Not sure if there is an artwork I like less in the whole of mtg.

You are so right, thanks for helping me understand the message of that data I've collected there. I am going to give Grim Haruspex a try. I don't like that it triggers only of nontokens, prefer the 'once a turn'-clause on stuff like Morbid Opportunist, but I like that the Haruspex adds another...

Thanks for all these sweet suggestions guys, wow. For now, I'll go with Unlucky Witness. It helps the struggling sacrifice decks in my cube and allows me to replace a 1-drop creature with a 1-drop creature. But there are certainly other cars here I'll keep in mind.

Thanks to @Onderzeeboot and his very true remark, I threw all the data I collected based on match wins out of the window. Then I went through all the decklists from the past two years again and collected data based on game wins (there were a couple drafts I had just tracked matches, but I could...

Ballad of the Black Flag The Arsir escape Valhalla If I reintroduce sagas to my cube, these two clunky graveyard value engines will be high on my list. But for the most part I am skipping this UB product like the others. Not because it is UB, but because of the ugly metallic frame.
