I don't think activate only once is that much of an issue if it's on one or two cards in a game.

Neat boardwipe If {G/W} wasn't the most stuffed hybrid section already, I'd get very excited for this cutie.

I know, I said I'd only update the cube twice a year, but I had a really good and an okay reason to make an exception here ... I'm cutting: Lotus Cobra Steppe Lynx Akoum Hellhound Because I still have to balance landfall support since I went for 18 Prismatic Vistas last january. Cobra has...

Spawning Pit for me. I have in it my cube for many years, it adds a loz of small synergies. Multiple artifacts, threats that survive board wipes etc. Idol is mostly an aggro card. Might be stronger, but does less things.

Is this card too good for a mid-powered cube? Jessie's & Jame's Journey {3}{R} Sorcery Exile the top X cards of your library, where X is the amount of differently named lands you control. You may cast them until the end of your next turn. The format has a lot of nonbasic lands, so this can...

Wow, I've just seen Up the Beanstalk appearing in modern and even legacy lists. I was just wondering why this very recent draft build-around-me-uncommon was ~3€ already. Guess I should sell my copy soon lol. That was a card I didn't anticipate spiking.

This month I could really celebrate my cube's birthday. In addition to the 5 person draft recently, I yesterday had one with 7 people (it could've been 10!). After WoE prerelease I connected with dozens of magic players in Bremen. And yesterday, we met in a new location – there is a nice burger...

I promise, this is the last thread. https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/5ce3c87a-d756-4a7c-a5da-dce0c5f5c7cc I've tried to manifest my love for the original ravnica block numerous times. Actually, it was what brought me into the world of cube in the first place. But RAV block is tricky. It is...

I think just scry N would be weird for a map. I feel like it needs some connection to lands. I also wouldn't be shocked if Ixalan got a deeper lands theme this time, maybe more landfall as well (fingers crossed). Too bad, seems like a perfect opportunity to use a big mechanic for two sets in a...

How is your enchantment theme doing? I could imagine that WoE gave you some new tools. Even excluding roles – even people less restricting with tokens do often – there should be a decent amount? Virtue of Courage Bitter Chill Cooped Up The princess takes Flight Also, even though you don't run...

Looking for basic effects, maybe maps get you a basic land from the deck? Like Traveler's Amulet? If so, that could lead to another draft environment where you could easily go ham with colors. Also, does Kellan here mean, that we get advetures in Ixalan too? Would certainly make sense for the...

I've considered charming butcher myself. Bloodmage is clearly stronger to me, it draws a card without sac fodder around, makes a better token and wrecks a gy based deck completely. But ratatouille is cooler.

I've just recently realised, that my Cube was celebrating it's 10-year anniversary this month. I've checked cardmarket and found out, that it was the 6th of September 2013, that I've first bought cards explicitly for my cube. Before, in 2009, I had quit magic and sold all my cards, except those...

True, but take into account how subjective that is. For example, in our most recent draft I had a friend who had drafted a {B/G} dredge deck leaving Varolz, the Scar-Striped in the sideboard. He had a lot of self mill, beefy guys like Daemogoth Titan and Gurzigost and cards like Awakening Zone...

That's smart but could also be tricky, since you have to calculate the generically good stuff cards almost every real draft deck ends up with. But I really like the idea.

Should I look more into revolt cards? Absolutely. Have I considered this before? Not at all. Am I thankful for this inspiration? Certainly. But my G/X landfall archetype also wants to utilize stuff like Rampant Growth, Emergent Sequence or Void Snare. After my success with Ore-Scale Guardian...

It's not a party if no one laughs Demon's Jester (or bleeds to death)

See, with 18 vistas people can easily end up with 4 or 5 fetches in their deck plus maybe a bounceland. Vinelasher Kudzu is a great 2-drop and having it attack as a 5/5 flier on turn four without even trying seems too much – even with the risk of it being a bad topdeck later. Without or only...

Goblin Guide GG is less expensive and less of a menace in constructed these days, but what does that mean for a cube that hasn't that power creep going on and is still happy casting Rakdos Cackler, Jackal Pup or even just Flameblade Adept? Is the guide's drawback more of a thing in a cube where...

I have a very specific problem. I have a lower powered cube with a very fetch heavy mana base. I love my 18 prismatic vistas so farfor several reasons and don't want to change that approach. But now, I have to tame some of my landfall payoffs. I have already cut Plated Geopede, will definitely...
