    General Inspiration: Environment and Card Design Ideas

    Well kinda. Different holes I guess (Dirty!) I'm more like "I need a blue 2 drop that supports spells matter" or like "I need a white removal spell that isn't op and costs 1", and less like "Man dredge was awesome. Moar dredge cards!" Narrower I guess.

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    it can be a beeble weird for all I care, I think it'll work. What I'm wondering is if he can be a 3/2 a la vithian renegades

    [Design/Construction] Lets build the Scuttlemutt Cube!

    Badderskull? (Stolen) He seems cool, but less cool and less good than other 5c options in my opinion

    That being said, anyone have any sweet ideas for blue decks? :P

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    the rebel thing is an idea that has been floating around for a while now, and I mention the zombpyre thing because (IIRC) it has the same author (I think he mentioned it on Kranny's Podcast once?) The full custom cube maybe. It makes a fine counterexample of a (perfectly valid) thing we don't...

    General Squadron Build-Arounds

    Yeah, the single copy of oppo is fine. The difference between this approach and the gravecrawler approach is better for some cards, worse for others. People won't play a single copy of squadron hawk, but they'll definitely play a single pod or a single gravecralwer. Maybe Kindle and co?

    General What websites do you use to order cards from?

    For local Toronto people: MTGIsland.com. Low prices, half decent selection, and not only is there a go pick it up option, there's a "fuck paying with paypall, show up with cash and we both get more" option if you're nice to the guy The business is different for Canadians. It took WAY too much...

    General Fighting Disappointment: Lets fix some cards that were almost sweet

    I dunno man. Are there any flash 187s?

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Proably best to ground it something people might recognize: Andy Cooperfaus' Rebel Erratta and Undead Erratta (Zombies/Vampires ==> Zombivampires), and maybe touch lightly on Ali Antrazi's custom cube project. Where you go from there I'm down for the ride, but starting with that should give...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    Also, for a spells matter idea: 1U 2/1 Instants and sorceries you cast cost U less super broke for constructed (goblin electromancer) but for cube?

    Card/Deck Artifact/Enchantment destruction

    This is where I get nervous too. Birthing pod is a fine card, but I still want people to be able to fight it. Eldrazi monument kinda has a similar feeling to it, mostly because it makes your creatures indestructible, so the ONLY way to fight it is with artifact hate. Jitte has it's own...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Sure. what about errata?

    Card/Deck +1/+1 Counters

    Well, unless that card has a mana cost (which it doesn't). they pod like tokens do too

    General Jitte and assorted GRBS, P1P1, etc.

    it's all cube dependant, and drafter dependent. I feel fine passing have tms, nervous passing jitte, and never pass origional elspeth. I can only assume y'all are different

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    I think I'm going to take my cube down to 450 cards. I've found I'm doing less and less full 8 man drafts, and I've become increasingly frustrated with the inconsistency of the synergy based archetypes like gravecrawler, pod, and other less likely archetypes like blue tempo. I've had kinda a...

    General Inspiration: Environment and Card Design Ideas

    Sadly, of the (what, 4? 5?) people who post about custom cards, at least one (me) doesn't really give thought to sweet environment concerns, since I'm much more focused about hole filling balancing cards. you might have gotten responses from both people interested in environment design :P
