Even with such a minor spirit theme, I feel like both, Screech and Devotion are better cards than Midnight Haunting on a pure power level ... level. That card was pretty weak when I tested it. This would certainly change with heavier tribal support though.

I run Battle Screech in my lower powered list, and it is strong but absolutely fine there. I think the evasion makes Battle Screech also a little better than Devotion. You could obviously run both, but white has so many good token producers, it is pretty hard to include them all if you want...

I was always on the edge for Debtor's Knell. Never got my hands on a copy, but next time I order some singles, I will add a copy. Does anyone cube with this? Gerrard's Verdict

Orzhov is an interesting guild. You can build WB decks in all styles easily, from heavy aggro to super defensive control. But when it comes to real themes, I feel like white and black have little in common. How does this effect the gold section. What are you running in your Orzhov sections...

I'm fine with cards being vulnerable. I'm more in fear of the things it can do in a BCS, ramping it out with multiple other 4+ drops in hand. It seems sketchy for tight high power lists, but in a fair environment it could be, well, unfair maybe :p Just a guess, I probably have to see her in action

I can confirm that Snakeform is good. But I slot gold and hybrid cards seperately, and when I weht down to 1 hybrid per guild, I cut it instead of Spitting Image without much thinking. In which decks is Prophet of Kruphix at it's best? Midrange with Counterspells? Ramp with mana sinks?

One of my all-time favorite mana sinks hasn't been mentioned yet. So I'll just leave this here ... Sprout Swarm

Drafting Peter's. P1P1 Glen Elendra Archmage. Was unsure if I want to draft Control or some kind of graveyard deck, so I kinda did both. Not sure if this deck would actually be good in your meta, but I for sure would like to try it. Maybe I could need another finisher and more card draw...

It is not the fastest engine ever, but it can take over a game. Most decks don't need more than 6 mana anyway, so having the option to start copying the best creature on the board with every land you topdeck is gravy. When the opponent has the biggest guy, you can copy it an trade. If doesn't...

It's an elvish visionary that ramps you ~46% of the time. That's enough to earn a gold slot for me. I guess I wouldn't play it in a high powered cube, but in a peasant-like meta, this guy is pure value. Always feels good to cast it. And the comparison with Steve seems odd to me. Tribe Elder is...

The thing is, I don't have and want super powerful unbeatable enchantments. Mono red should be able to beat them too. But just because you might be able to beat a crystal shard, it doesn't mean you could not have a better match up with a removal for it. That's important. I try to have every card...

Does he see play outside of straight aggro decks? I try to keep the number of pure aggro cards low where I can. Olivia would probably better, but I fear she might be too pushed for my meta.

Simic is a guild that offers a lot of interesting options imo. What are you running in your Simic sections? What themes/archetypes do you support? Did you have some surprising successes? What do you want the Simic Combine to do? My 2 cents: Like with every guild, I have 1 hybrid (only true...

Because at best the half of the players will have a reasonable number of death mark targets with maybe one Person being totally screwed against it, because he or she drafted Selesnya. But when my whole cube would be drafted, 9 of the 10 players would have probably more than enough cards to make...

I guess we have to partly disagree here. I don't think my creatures are stronger than my disenchant targets, but I still want my Terror effects. Maybe it is a meta thing, but I can't remember the last deck with less than 3 artifacts and/or enchantments. I want my cube to be skill testing, and if...

I tried Tymaret, but he was a bit disappointed. I felt like the Guildmage was a better 2-drop and Lyzolda the better sac outlet. Now that you mention madness, though, can anyone recommend Bloodhall Priest? It looks neat, but I have a hard time evaluating it. Like, I can't tell if it would be...

I haven't Seen threads like these where we can have discussion on how to design out guild sections, what cards are worth running and why etc. I think this can be pretty interesting and lead to new ideas and points of view. So Rakdos has been a tough guild for me, because I try to avoid boring...

I don't understand why every card should be equally maindeckable. Good sideboard cards are an integral and necessary part of MtG. Also, creature removal can be useless against decks with (almost) no creatures or such, so where's the difference? And when you run enough artifacts and enchantments...

Will all unstable cards have silver border at the top and the sites and black at the bottom? Because if this is the case, Blast from the Past might continue to be my only Un-card ...
