    I've noticed that some users here are interested in this archetype, but are also unsure, if they want to add it to there cube. So I thought I could share my experiences a little bit and list the upsides and downsides of this archetype, and how it can be realized successfully. Basically, the...

    Sets (MH1) Modern Horizons Testing/Includes

    I'm pretty convinced it is a great card. When black was still an aggro color in my cube I ran Tormented Soul, which was already strong. And I still have Soltari Foot Soldier in white. People always how much damage 1-power 1-drops with evasion can make. Even without pump and equipment, they...

    Okay, I finally figured it out, I'm going to give these cards a run: Watcher for Tomorrow Bogardan Dragonheart Mother Bear Rain of Revelation Goblin War Party Winding Way Watcher is a great blink payoff and a 2-drop that's useful for every deck. The Dragonheart might be the Nantuko Husk red...

    Hard to evaluate but testworthy is my judgment. There's another "pile" card that I like more than e.g. a regular edict. Do or Die

    No idea. M20 is really not as resonant and elegant as a core set should be

    I'm afraid of this, since I like aggro, and I do 3 things to prevent that from happening: 1) I try to limit the chunks of life you gain to smaller ones. That means Martyr of Dusk or Syndic of Tithes instead of Nearheath Pilgrim where possible. So it's more about triggering the Pridemates...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Itsa me again, ravnic! Drogskol Reaver How low-powered is this guy even? I mean it is a 7-mana gold card, so t should be good, but I fear the double draw could be a little harsh maybe? The good points: I think this guy could make people add white to the mostly {U/B} or {U/R} control decks...

    life gain surely is a little more narrow than lets say a token theme, but not as much as one might think. We just stumbled upon it basically, realizing how many sources we had already in the colors, mainly for other reasons. Soul Warden was in there for tokens and to some degree blink, Blood...

    General Let's talk fatties

    I feel like I have a lower power level than most that have been posting here so I will share some thoughts on fatties I run or have run in the past. Honored Hydra I wished for this card exactly when embalm got spoiled and I'm still exited over such a flexible, strong but fair fattie. a 6/6...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    That's awesome and i wonder if wizards would've ever thought of that happening. Probably not. I have a more boring question, though. Is this card maybe just sweet? how hard can it be to get spell mastery, and with +2/+2 even 3-drops become really good targets. Especially in control decks, this...

    I don't like the set too much, but it has quite a few hits for my wish list. Almost the opposite from MH1, which was mega cool but didn't give me as much as others. Well, here is my M20 Hitlist: My slam dunk I was looking many times in the past for a gold boros 2-drop that is clearly...

    Dark Bargain Is that card as sweet as it looks? Is it not basically a instant speed draw three in black, splashable, for the little cost if 2 life? I mean, in black decks it should not be too hard to find 1/3 cards that you'd like in your graveyard. I also like the flavour :p

    Yeah two more includes. For me this set is incredible. Love both here. BUT It is embarassing that they printed the artwork upside down ... here's how it was probably meant to look like:

    I had Tangleroot in my cube for whatever reason many years ago. It didn't do anything. Absolutely nothing.

    Okay, guys, you helped me a lot to narrow down my white problem. But I need you one more time! I want to dedicate 7 slots of my white section to control cards. 2 of those slots will go to Rout and a similar sweeper, leaving me with 5 more slots to fill. So I'd love to know 5 white cards that...

    Sets [M20] Core Set 2020

    Yes I also like the simple, clean designes and sometimes more powerful 'nuts and bolts'-cards. That said, 2020 does not feel like a core set to me so far. Lots of legends, 3-colored cards, colored artifacts, really complicated cards with huge walls of text ... Ixalan felt more core set I'd say.

    If you have a lot of grindy recursuion and a lifegain theme in black, Bontu's Monument seems pretty good too.
