Drafted ravnics cube. Firstpicked a Dimir Signet, which kept me open, then saw Dralnu and tried to build around him. Wound up with this sweet spells control deck: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1014572[/url]"] Ones 1 Unsummon 1 Vampiric Tutor Twos 1 Chainer's Edict 1 Diabolic Edict 1 Dimir Signet...

I started running an artifact theme in my cube a while ago, and so far it works pretty well. It's a midrange deck, that plays a lot of artifacts and has cards that profit from it. Stuff like: Etched Champion, Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain, Thopter Spy Network, Darksteel Juggernaut, or Jor Kadeen...

my landfall archetype is more landfall synergy value style than being a true combo. It has a Loam compjnent, but it's only a small subtheme with LftL, World Shaper, Cycling Lands and Worm Harvest and stuff. The main thing contains cards like these: Hedron Crab Budoka Gardener Tideforce...

Oh yeah, that is perfectly. How could I forget about him, when I have him in my Ravnica Remastered box? He'll do double duty from now on, thank you! :)

I'm looking for a black creature, that's hard to get rid of and will eventually win a game. It could be recursive, regenerating, an enchantment, something that creates multiple threats. I'm talking about a card, that works as a control finisher in a deck with very few threats. I'm currently...

It's good at ending games, though :p But if your format is at a power level, that it doesn't forgive a 5-drop that needs a bit of set up, than maybe it's suddenly not good enough

Maw of the Obzedat Best token/aristocrats crossover payoff imo

How much value has this snek girl besides landfall shenanigans? Sakura-Tribe Scout I am running already Budoka Gardener, but he can be a brutal win con in different green decks. The scout has no other abilities.

All the time. All the decks in my cube that want an aggressive discard outlet at 2 mana would want another. I'm even hoping for more variants. Gruul Madness Aggro wants them the most, followed by Golgari dredge. Other beat down decks like Selesnya Aggro also highly appreciate both of them, but...

I'd cut the Wall too. And then replace the Explorer with Wild Mongrel, whose absence hurts me.

I'm not a huge fan of the wedge idea anymore, at least not as the main idea. The overarching idea? I don't know, we could call it the rough, wild world maybe, like a more believeable, authentic, deeper, all colors involving version of Jund. But that's something we should adapt based on the...

This time I managed the title without an akward typo. Things get better. Okay first: I don't wanna stomp in everything we worked on so far! Our last thread seemed to dry out a little bit lately, which was probably partly my fault. First, I was busy, but second - more importantly - I felt...

I"m just putting out a few numbers for the core of a design skeleton. This here would still have our groups, but leaves more space to show that there is stuff beyond these going on in Vakeztan and it's format is not just "pick a faction and draft accordingly". The factions can also be hold...

I don't know about these. But Ravnica usually has an offbeat deck (enchantments, defenders) and some 3+ color madness, but most of the decks are just versions of guild XY and you know at some point in the draft what to look for. I know that Innistrad is hard to reach, but that doesn't mean we...

We will have approximatly: 5 wedge gold commons 5 wedge hybrid activation commons 5 wedge tribrid commons 10 wedge gold uncommons 10 enemy guild gold uncommons 10 wedge gold rares 10 enemy guild gold rares I think having 5 allied gold cards will not confuse anyone or make the factions identity...

They go into just as many wedges as a 3-colored cards would and they will probably see 90% of their play in their wedges. They just give the drafters a little more options by being easier to splash for and indicating little sub themes. Also, you can create cards for the wedges, that would make...

I wouldn't insist on them, but I still think they are a good idea. Look, if we have a lot of monocolored and flexible stuff at common, we can probably easily allow for 40 uncommons with multicolored identity, maybe even more. Shards of Alara for example only had 4 actual monocolored cards for...

I will now make a sketch with some theoretical card examples for all 5 wedges and the 2-color combinations to clarify, how they might distinguish in draft. Please critizise and improve, where you feel the need or just come up with further ideas. Also, don't focus on every card in a single card...

Hm, you might be right ... But on the other hand, this set is not like Ravnica or even Alara, where (almost) every living being (and more) would be connected to oine of the factions. They are more cultures/ways of living in a deep world than factions, that can be seperated like with sports...

I like the Factionmage design, I'm in! On the commons: Don't you think 10 is enough? I don't know, but a lot of multicolor at common comes at a price of variability. I'd vote for more uncommon and/or rare gold slots instead.
