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

    Yup :) that's a great way of putting it. I think what most designers are worried about is when they're trying to increase the momentum of the pendulum. Basically only wotc does that comfortably, if at all. people flipped thir shit when savannah lions became uncommon in elite vanguard, let alone...

    Rob's unpowered cube - with primer

    Always Sucks when you can't get a full draft in. Can you get 4? By giving each player twice the packs and having everyone shuffle out a card from the pack, you can get the feel of 8 person drafts a bit. As for the actual changes, I like most of them in the dark, with slight worry about how fun...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    took a look at the articles jason, and I have a few ideas. I'm pretty clear about what the general game plan is for the pod deck and how to layer those with the existing archetypes. I'm a little more confused when it comes to what a good pod deck looks like. Tried a few more drafts today, got...

    Card/Deck Mill in cube: yay or neigh?

    Nephalia Drownyard is (I think) the best way to do this. it certainly wont spawn a mill deck, but it'll help with the graveyard interactions. Also, isn't the correct spelling in this context "Nay", and not the sound horses make? :P

    anotak's cube (budget-ish)

    Hmmmm. If I had to guess, if your drafters like it, I'd assume it's preforming well for them, right? Are they getting back 3+ creatures when casting it? Are they ever dying before they get to use those creatures? Your removal seems to be at about 18% of the cube, which isn't horribly...

    anotak's cube (budget-ish)

    Obzedat's Aide does seem like worse 2 color zombify 99% of the time, and unburial rites probably does what you want 5 mana reanimation spells to be doing. dawnglare invoker -- This card is all worst case sinerios: Either 8 mana is too much, or they don't get a combat step, or they remove it...

    Card/Deck Fencing Ace

    Unsurprisingly I am :p (Though no drafts yet, still new) Blood lust looks bad :( 9/10 it will just be worse fists of the anvil. I like the idea of Titan's Strength, I'm not currently testing it. If people like it I think it's my next add, I like it better than Brute Strenth

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Alright, all request live time: I'm having trouble with Birthing Pod I'm running 4, but since I've never played the deck in constructed (mostly due to a lack of playing constructed) I find it really hard to jam an actual pod deck together, and part of me wonders weather that's my fault as a...

    Guys, guys, guys, we're all missing the point on Ruhan. He's George Bush! Randomly attacking people, not knowing quite where he's going, and rather unpopular as a general. Zedruu the greathearted is Obama, constantly being accused of giving away too much but the restrictive cost of him doing...

    Card/Deck Life from the Loam

    Yeah, that's basically mah jam :p I also tried :1:{R}{R} 3/2 seismic assault, only with a {R} activation instead of just flinging lands. It's waaaaay worse.

    Card/Deck Life from the Loam

    I actually think Seismic assault would be a fine card at like :1:{R}{R} or :2:{R}

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

    I've got another one that's vaporkin with bestow U4 might be able to make it 4 mana, but every time I think I have bestow figured out it gets better. Maybe UU2? Edit:
