Basically Explore plus 3 life. That's not nothing.

No, aggro definitely likes the pain lands better than midrange and control do. In fact, aggro likes painlands on the other side of the table as well, because if your opponent starts at ~18 life, that's 2 damage you won't have to deal yourself! Painlands don't fix better than temples, or any of...

They definitely wouldn't be too good. Whether you need them depends on how color-intensive your aggro deck's spells are, and how low your curve is. If you run CC spells (e.g. Goblin Wardriver and Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit) or a very low curve, where you expect your aggro decks to run 5 or more...

Are you considering rare lands in your Peasant Cube then? Since you mentioned painlands. I think your cube would play better if you use great mana fixing, which isn't really available at common/uncommon. Also, if you want to support multicolor decks, running somewhere between 12 and 15% mana...

There's honestly not a lot. I used to run two Necromancy and a custom when I was on the 3 cmc reanimation plan still (that's been a while). Bone Dancer Corpse Dance Gruesome Encore Recurring Nightmare That's it, and while Bone Dancer is a really cool template, it hardly counts as you have...

Spitebellows Shivan Meteor There is a limit to how much flexibility is healthy for a given format, but in principle flexibility is good! Honestly, I think I will at least need to test it out, given that I even run an elemental theme in Temur colors.

Wish the front side was a tiny bit better though. I mean, four mana for a Spark Elemental isn't exactly the pinnacle of efficiency.

They did update CubeCobra to a new version yesterday, and they changed something in the images, so maybe you were just there at an unlucky time? I asked my players, and so far the consensus seems to be: "keep the broken stuff in, more broken stuff will happen, and we can always remove cards...

Kitesail Freebooter (PS I also thought you were looking for one drops)

This is basically the only forum I visit and post in, and it shows. I’m dedicating all of my forum time to you guys and gals :)

Only 18/40 mods are available in any given draft, embalm simply didn’t show up. I’m pretty sure it would have been picked otherwise :) Are the images still gone? Because I can see them just fine? I did reupload all of the images as jpegs rather than pngs and changed the img url in CubeCobra to...

It looks like I forgot to take a picture of Jeroen's deck :oops: That's unfortunate, really. He managed to draft his own Izzet Really? and improve it even further! Not a bad deal for five mana, a steal at four! People are building their own Prophetic Bolts here :) All in all I think the...

Ok, time for the second tournament! I thought it was awesome that we had time for a second go on the same day! I immediately got to see some of the interactions between drafts in action, great learning moment, but more on that later :) Seats 1 Jeroen (Grixis tempo) 2 Jannes (Golgari...

This.

First up, Jeroen's Jeskai deck. Jeroen went undefeated, not even dropping a game in his three matches. Ones 1 Frenzied Goblin 1 Signal Pest 1 Slip Through Space Twos 1 Watcher for Tomorrow 1 Burning Prophet 1 Goblin Wardriver 1 Mogg War Marshal 1 Young Pyromancer 1 Immolating Souleater 1...

Love it, I'm glad my shitposting paid off this year :') Worthy winners as well!

Haha, it's not bad advice, honestly, it's just advice that goes against the purpose of my cube ;)

Ok, time to write up a tournament report, since I've run my first two drafts with this beauty! We decided to time the rounds this time around. Last time we drafted my (other) cube, we had a lot of matches going way over time, but we just played them out. It was a lot of fun, but we also ran out...
