    The 5 Dollar Fair 'Nuff Cube

    Cube looks indeed pretty awesome. Would love to draft and play it. There are some power outliers (resto) but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. One little note: You could be adding some less powerfull removal spells at 1 (Black not having any feels wrong to me). Dead Weight or Disfigure...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I am curious towards two cards. Golden Argosy Does this work? How consistent of a blink enabler is it, considering it has to survive attacks to do it multiple time? I guess a 3/6 often can safely attack and at least threaten to trade with something real? Hope of Ghirapur Does the second...

    General Fight Club

    Malcolm gives me PTSD. In the draft prerelease I was 1-1, proceeded to play my last round against some guy. Talking to him he stated that he hated cube, which made me mad because it's such a stupid thing to say, when you apparently like drafting, but hes wasn't open for arguments. Then he beat...

    Strong artifact payoff where the artwork actually fits the frame's style

    Today I've had my two best friends over for some games. We played a little sealed tournament for each of my three cubes. Turning cards sideways from 3pm to 1am, that's heaven guys

    Flame Fussilade might be a real sleeper. It's very powerful in my Ravnica Block remastered cube, where you don't have to build around it at all. But if you have a bunch of cards that make multiple permanents, creatures, artifacts, even enchantments, you could probably make it work at far higher...

    Ravnica Block Cube

    I got an 8-person draft in this tuesday night. It was incredible, despite some hiccups. I had my three most regular drafters at the table as well as four different people with experience level raging from old fogeys (I met another cube owner!) to someone who started playing two month ago. The...

    General Adding a single Kindred to a cube

    kindred is the card type, typal is the style of play and synergy. And yes, dinos are cool. I would aim for over 20 dinos and at least 7 payoffs in 450, preferably those that are both in one card, like the yearling.

    General Favorite cube cards from the late 90/early 2000s

    Yeah, the good times when overstatted creatures used to come with downsides - that you could then turn into advantages by putting the right synergies together. I miss that time. Shivan Wurm Masticore Gurzigost Call me an old fogey, but these spark much more joy for me than those. Sentinel of...

    General Favorite cube cards from the late 90/early 2000s

    Pianna, Nomad Captain Shelter Battle Screech Pacifism Death or Glory Pianna is a weaker Glorious Anthem (also cool card) but doesn't eat up a noncreature slot. Shelter is still just white's coolest trick imo. Battle Screech is one of the few good token makers from that time and therefor...

    But it's cooler if it also costs less that way. Like a much worse Roar of the Wurm :p

    Well, if you either loot or rummage it into your 'yard or mill it, then it essentially draws you card. Or rather doesn't cost you one. I currently run 24 cards that rummage or loot and 24 cards as well that can mill yourself or otherwise put cards from your library into your graveyard. A free...

    There are also two more cards I could see myself testing: Self Reflection I wish it could copy opposing creatures OR be one mana cheaper on the flashback, but whenever I see flashback < mana cost, I am tempted to at least try it. Vanguard of the Rose White sac outlets are rare, and this...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Has anyone tried this in practice? If so, how did it go? I think flip cards are less of a annoyance in draft than dfcs, but the latter is better known due to their regular use. So I am wondering if problems, like people not knowing how to play these, is something people have experienced...

    I feel like people tend to undervalue morphs, at least those with a good flip ability. Yeah, a 3-mana 2/2 is bad, but what if it draws you a Naturalize or Regrowth on etb? Nantuko Vigilante Den Protector (... and gets +1/+0 perpetually when you cast it, I guess.)

    I would like to add those observations/arguments 100% to my previous post. You perfectly described why I might end up just adding a single card from this set, even though it has cool art and flavor.
