I thought about the counter problematic too and I really like your idea to solve it, Rowan. How about this wording: Hungry Hippo can't attack or block unless it has a tame counter on it. Tap any number of non-beast creatures with total power 3 or greater: put a tame counter on Hungry Hippo...

That sounds on point to me. Do you like my taming mechanic as it is? I feel like it makes sense when the tame number is related to either power or toughness, not sure which one though

That Swarm Mechanic would fit perfectly into {U}{R}{G}, we would just need to find a new flavor fitting that. ANd for the initial idea of having them be alchemists, I think that would be much better fit for {G}{U}{B} anyway, so I would move that there. I also have a idea how to capture that...

Okay, another suggestion for {B}{G}{W}. This mechanic does not capture the flavour of an animal be mounted, but it shows the giant beasts you need to tame, so they folow your orders. It is a bit like crewing vehicles, but you have to do it only once, like turning a creature monstrous was in...

Great to get so much input! That scroll emchanic sound interesting, but I'm not sure I quite get it. Is it like a sorcery you can cast from exile? Also, I totally love swarm. We could make it the invaders faction actually, question is if it fits flavourfully? Also, I'm not dead set on mount...

No, critical is exactly what we need to make this awesome! And I agree totally with you that the draw mechanic (it's not sultai, it's Temur, color wise) is dangerous and probably bullcrap. Also, morph is probably not great as a wedge mechanic. Any ideas for {U}{R}{G} and {G}{U}{B}? I"m a bit...

An idea was growing in my mind: How cool would it be, to see, if I could create a deep, balanced limited environment - not with the cards wizards print, but completely out of nothing. It would be a hard task, but also a very fun one. Then another idea came to me: What I could need, was a team...

It's an incredibly hard to evaluate card. I will inform you as soon as I got some testing done :) Another question: I figured that Vampire Nighthawk would be too much of a stat monster for my cube and decided not to add it. What I wonder now is, is this guy here maybe okay because the lack of...

Isn't there a better synergy card in Izzet colors? What about Desolated Lighthouse?

Problem with all the sweet enchantments and artifacts is, that I have to keep the count up of instant and sorceries for the spells matter guys in red :)

Thank's guys, I'm leaning towards Mizzix's Mastery. Seems like a nice recursion/finisher in one. Only problem, this would probably still flashback a kill spell of sorts in 9/10 cases, but eh ... :D

That looks like a pretty fresh approach to {B}{G} May I ask, which changes you have applied to your green section to makes these decks possible?

I have a tough one. I am looking for a red instant or sorcery a control deck would be interested in play BUT it can not be another kill/creatureburn spells, cause I feel like having enough killing in my red section. I'm already running these: Faithless Looting Tormenting Voice Act of...

I have no experience with this archetype, but I'm pretty confident, that Merfolk Looter and Looter il-Kor would be incredible for it, while being generally good and draw-smoothing dudes. Also, Deep Analysis is a card I'm always happy to discard. You probably have a reason to exclude these...

Have you gotten any results so far?

I'm going to test it too :) Could also imagine, that one being good in a aggro/tempo deck, in my cube maybe {R}-Aggro splashing {U}. Imagine dropping this on turn 3 or 4 on the play alongside a small creature, while the opposing midrange or tapout-control deck just tries it's best to stabilize...

This format made me hate hexproof even more

I prefer Cratermaker. I'm always happy to get some artifact (or enchantment in other cases) removal that is maindeckable and even good with 0 targets. This guy not only has a cool cat in his art, he also fits well into every aggro deck and works with recursion. Also, since he's a goblin, you can...

Looking for blue cards that interact with Landfall/Lands matter I stumbled upon this: Overburden I'm pretty sure that card would be nice in the lands deck, no question. But how good is that in a control deck with counterspells, removal etc. and only very few creatures? What you guys think?

Yeah, supporting a linear mono color matters strategy is definitely bound to some downsides from a gamedesigner's point of view. It gives less choice options to the drafter and has some slots being blocked by payoffs, that lose quite a bit of value in other decks, making them pretty narrow. On...
