I like the idea of making lorwyn and shadowmoor sectioned areas instead of just the obvious day/night cycle, it feels inspired and kind of works with the "suddenly you're in fairy land" trope that's in line with the setting, and the evoke elementals are mechanically cool, but there's a lot of...

Sygg is blue now?

Spectral Restitching The House Grows Hungry King of the Coldblood Curse A Trail of Teacups Giantcraft Helm Mechanically speaking, these are the most interesting cards to me. I don't think I'll be able to find a place for the Lizard, but I like him a surprising amount as a green beatstick that...

Clearly what's being defended against here is that people play it solely because of nostalgia and not because the format might have any inherent merits disassociated from reminiscing about days gone by.

I read a wiki page, but that seems beside the point.

aren't the infinity stones just marvel flavored generic random bullshit, a set of mysterious obelisks requiring obscure rituals to activate feels about as resonant it not more so to me than a collection of magic stones

Half card draw, half reanimate, half foretell, half remand. I really like airbend, it had a lot of cool applications. Unfortunately it's stuck with an unprintable name.

Walking Ballista was, for what it's worth, an eminently playable card while in Standard without requiring much in the way of support, so you probably don't need to depower your list all that much.

I think Sigarda's Vanguard is kind of neat.

I hope the legendary tag isn't very important in your cube in that case.

I was about to suggest that, but it sounded extremely broken. I would make you draw a card for each counter if it costs you a life each turn though. I also think such a mechanic might overshadow the gameplay experience a bit too much. In limited I also think it could be cool to have you mill...

why would I pick a shock over a land better than a shock

They had this draft format in the commander set and the sentiment from I think Seth was negative. It's much quicker, and a lot more committal. I also think 4p drafts are prone to deck quality problems this doesn't really solve.

Eerie Gravestone Scout the City Kind of neat, theming aside. The names are very reprintable at least, although it's not all that obvious why scouting a city would kill a flier.

what do you mean I start at 0% coolness

Anticausal Vestige All-Fates Stalker Starfield Shepherd Emissary Escort Uthros Psionicist Some of these probably. Not a big fan of the direction a lot of the warp cards have, would much prefer it they were just another batch of evokes instead of discounted one-turn build-arounds.

I'm feeling pretty vindicated. Kind of annoying that I've now twice been dismayed about a card I want to cube looking overtuned, and it goes on to get banned in standard. We could've both been happy wotc, and instead we're both sad. I'll still keep playing up the beanstalk though, just because...

Deathleaper, Terror Weapon Ardoz, Cobbler of War Saproling Burst Anything with attack triggers.

It gives the opponent a priority window to remove it before you can play a land.

Funny how the etb can be a drawback in fairly common situations.
