    Mordor's Cube (The Ship of Theseus)

    Plot twist: I'm actually not going to argue for Dig Up in your Cube because you convinced me on discord that it's probably too slow for you. I thought that was a very salient criticism of Dig Up and defenitiely removed some amount of my bullishness towards the card. I still want to test it in...

    I don't think WOTC would do this specifically because they want to avoid this reaction ;). And even if they do, most of the good ramp targets require at least two pips of colored mana these days. Playing tron would either mean waiting until turn 5 to cast anything big or using bad mana...

    I wanted to write a reply to @Onderzeeboot's post but didn't want to make a massive wall of quotes, so I put it in a spoiler instead! You have many interesting ideas, Mr Bootman!

    Yeah it was a little annoying that someone else posted a thread after I had already started putting mine together. I didn't see it until I had already clicked post because it wasn't there when I logged on. The full spoiler had only been up for like an hour at that point! I do not mind people...

    I love all of these wedding cards. Inject them directly into my veins!

    I like this design and the fact that it always provides a little bit of value. It is unfortunate that it doesn't have reminder text for any of the tokens. This is a good one drop, even without the Disenchant ability. I like how it gets bigger when attacking with your 2/1s, 3/3s, and so on...

    How did I miss this was a mana dork lol. I don't like how it specifies needing creatures in the yard instead of caring about normal threshold or delirium or something, I think that makes this card a lot worse than some of the other "Tarmogoyf" variants we've seen over the last couple of years...

    I'm also happy about the white discard support! It really helps tie the color into graveyard shenanigans that it used to not be good at despite having some decent payoffs. I think as far as Fleeting Spirit VS Seasoned Hallowblade is concerned, the Spirit is better against spells and the...

    Can we make this the most liked spoiler post of the year? That would be funny, and this card is cool enough to deserve it ;)

    I remember a time (roughly 18 months ago :p) when I would have gotten really excited to see this card be printed, and then promptly dissapointed when it turned out to be way worse than Drake Haven. I think the fact that this can start making tokens the turn it comes down without an additional...

    I'm from the United States, but from a state that's just South of the Canadian border. I'm actually closer to Canada than any of the other major US states (unless you want to count Wisconsin as major). Culturally, Minnesota is closer to Canada than a state like Texas or Florida, being known as...

    I mean, most of those words are just synonyms for interesting. I guess I could use a different word but it doesn't really change the meaning at all beyond some small semantic differences. Ulvenwald Oddity looks like it's going to have some really great gameplay patterns and fills a hole that...

    A lot of the cards in this set aren't particularly great, and many of the cards with interesting abilities are way overcosted or mostly for multiplayer (I love that in-text citations for new cards work now, thanks @James Stevenson!). Ulvenwald Oddity maybe doesn't have the most interesting...

    I’m on both Ramp and 4 power matters. Plus I have a couple cards that have attack triggers. They’re not exactly rare. He’s also the lad who leads your country in Civilization 6 ;)

    Ulvenwald Monstrostiy is the Canadian card every printed. It’s a cross between a Moose and a Grizzly bear! To top it off, it’s surrounded by Maple Leaves! I can hear O Canada! Playing just looking at this card. Wilfred Laurier/10 will test. This is easily one of the most interesting cards in...

    Yeah our previous options were a little underwhelming... I mean, I like the original art from Fate Reforged, but nothing about it says "kill spell." Likewise, the Clash Pack art looks like a kill spell, but not all that much like a protection spell. It kind of looks like you just wrap the...

    Honestly this is not a bad card! It has a raise dead tacked on when it dies, so it's kind of a cantrip dude, plus it enables itself with some mill. I would probably play this if it was a 2/2, as is I think my black section in my main cube is a little too tight for this. Having said that, I...
