I remember from back in the days when we used to play Yugioh (before MtG took over) and I always hated the weird wording, that was inconsistent and sounded like they put the japanese straight into Google translator. Magic is great.

Check the spoiler in my previous post, I gave out a list of every white/black lifegain card I'm running.

Well, the repeatable life pay effects can become pretty painful in a deck with no life gain. Cards like Phyrexian Reclamation or Graveborn Muse actually do make me prioritize life gain more. And they make it less likely that I would pick up more and more cards, that cost me life. So a {W}{B}...

I'm already running these life gain effects: And these "pay offs": If I'd add also these three: Syndic of Tithes Karlov of the Ghost Council Greed Would that be enough in a 500-card cube to have an actual theme you could draft around? I try to figure out, if these changes would...

Would you guys run it over Haunted Plate-Mail? Because this card is in the slot, I would else maybe play the Idol in. I already run Chimeric Mass (not going to cut it, the flexibility is huge) and I don't want 3 dudes like this.

In aggro, going down to 1 card is nothing. In a grindy sacrifice deck, it seems a bit tougher, but still realistic in mid to late game.

I really like the idea of raising the number of cool black cards with life payment and combining them with white life vain. Kinda intrigued to try something like this now. There are just too many cool archetypes for one cube.

If braids and smokestack are fine power level wise, you should not worry about call being too strong and unfun :P

How likely is a deck with no non-zombie creatures in your meta? I think a lock with Reassembling Skeleton or Tenacious Dead is much more likely in my cube, even though I run a decent number of Zombies.

I considered adding this card a few times, never actually tried it. I like this card, because it works with Zombies or just with any sacrifice strategy. It is exactly the kind of tribal effects I enjoy in cube - not too linear and playable or even desireable potentially for decks with zero...

On a side note: What are the best payoff cards for lifegain I only run this one, which is good in Tokens/Aggro because it enables itself: Path of Bravery I also used to run this guy: Divinity of Pride Was pretty strong, actually even too much in terms of stats while having super narrow...

I vote for lone rider because signal cards for WB lifegain are sparce

@Onderzebots deck post: Well, I believe you it worked, but it looks to me like it shouldn't somehow. I bet it got some wins by casting Raptor or getting a Vinelasher big enough or even casting the non-aggro bomb PrimeTime before the wildfire? In a regular aggo deck, you're pretty likely...

Okay, next question: What does an Wildfire aggro deck look like? To me these two sound pretty far from each other, so I'm curious.

I designed a rakdos keyword, which encourages reckless attacking and shows flavorwise the anger the guy feels when he sees someone who has more riches - like the right parties who are telling their voters that immigrants get everything for free :D Rakdos Butcher {1}{B}{R} First Strike...

Isn't aggro super good in your meta now? You have a stronger aggro suite than me I'd say and I run a few green 1-mana accelarators and 2-mana mana rocks including als sihgnets, also some wrath's that can be cast for 4, and aggro is still winning a lot of matches

Oh, that's a difficult one. I also got one. I want an artwork of some creepy guy (or girl, human if possible) who's playing with marionettes of some kind.

Let's try to get this thread ontopic again :D What kind of keyword do you expect for the Rakdos? I liked the handsize matters thing with hellbent, but the mechanic wasn't popular. They brought "almost-hellbent" back for Shadows and Amonkhet, so maybe they would come up with something in this...

Yeah seems to be actually more plausible, because that way you would kill with mill before damage. I would still prefer an ability, that works without attacking. In Ravnica 1 Dimir often won games with stalling and using cards like Vedalken Entrancer. I wanna be mean and do this again.

That's a great evaluation tool, man. Why have I never thought of doing it like this? Sometimes even stupid questions can receive great answers, thanks :)
