Nivmagus Elemental is too vulnerable to be channeling cards into, blue doesn't want rogue elemental, and Talarand is very slow. If young pyromacer has shown us anything, it's that landing before you do the majority of your spellcasting is key. Favorable winds could work, but I'm not the guy to...

6 is really powerful. The only thing I don't like is the verse at the end where the lines keep repeating "crystal meth" over and over and over. I think it would have been a much more powerful message if the drug in question had gone unnamed, and the cynic in me kinda wants to believe that verse...

Delver and cloudfin raptor fit in very different decks. You should pick one, since they don't synergize with eath other. Since Raptor is easy and given the title of this thread, let's focus on delver: 1cc Triple Delver I think. I'd add less, but I don't think there's another 1 drop this deck...

Also, how do we feel about this? One in a Million :1::w: Instant Instead of paying ~'s mana cost, you may exile a white card from your hand Target creature gains protection from the color of your choice until end of turn.

Another Blue Stahli Fan! :D Personal Favorite from that kinda style right now: also anyone who even remotely likes hip hop needs to take a look at Hopsin yesterday:

I think cube has enough for a few of these effects, and squee is my favorite of the bunch.

Post the runners up, of course

Well, she's slow

Small checklist: Survival of the Fittest/Fauna Shaman Smallpox Birthing Pod (Okay that's kinda loose) Looters (Good ones, not that shit compulsion) Spellshapers (Okay these are far and few between thesedays, but could be added in if there was a graveyard or madness theme. Braids, Cabal Minion...

So Chris, do any of the blue cards in your cube do anything, or are they all just durdles to get better cards in other colors? Cantrips, Intuition, Frantic Search, Mystical Tutor (Sidenote: the fuck is this doing here?), gifts... Now I know why people say blue sucks in this cube. Blue's about...

We're a classy crowd :p

Ace/Crusader = Don't cut double strike! Though I would swap crusader for either another paladin or fabled hero, if only for feelbads. Mindcensor = he's kinda Eh for me. Does pod need this hosing? I know it leads to sweet moments where they find it anyways, but has he actually been good? Gideon =...

Sphinx of Jwar Isle AEtherling Consecrated Sphinx Upheaval Frost Titan My favorites Man this got so derailed :p RE: Jason Not so huge of a fan of Stitched Drake personally since blue usually ended up threat light, but I love me a good serendib efreet. Fettergeist might be the start of a...

From the for delver thread: Shift might be too expensive. What's your opinion of favorable winds?

Not every card in a delver deck needs to flip delver. The aim is to make delver fine in those decks because most of your threats are also instants/sorceries, so you could have a defensible threat density without making delver never flip. If we have a deck of 2 delvers, 10 midnight hauntingish...

I'd argue UW or (with some tweaking of green) UG decks are possible, as I've suggested in the original post. Less of an "All in on Delver" deck, and more delver being a support to an anthemny tokeny deck. It'll take a few less Cloudgoat Rangers and a few more raise the alarms, but From what I...

Do you think the un-fun-ness of the deck is inherrent to the card delver of secrets, or the cards around it? I think delver is just a reasonable clock for a deck loaded with instants and sorceries. Ensuring your opponent never has a threat from turn 1 onwards not only doesn't seem possible in...

This is why I'm going the token cards route: I feel the threat light blue deck is a fools errand. It might be possible, but I think even if it were it wouldn't really contribute to good gameplay. Have you seen how legacy rug delver games play out? When the delver player is drawing according to...

Sucking I'm not so sure about, but it is arguably worse than ponder/preordain if you play it and don't have any way to shuffle your library. The basic mode where you don't shuffle is fine, but the (much more broken mode) where you have a fetchland essentially turns it into draw 3 discard 2...

The No ammount of cantrips bit was from CML's thread: That's what, 15 cantrips at 400 cards? That's an insane density, and if that wasn't enough I don't know what is.
