One day bevor new years eve we had another 4-person draft happening at my home. It was a great conclusion for a year 2023, that came with a lot of cubing and magic compared to the previous two years. Here are the results: 1. Mono {B} Sacrifice Midrange 2-1-0 (5-2) Ones 1 Ruthless Ripper 1...

It's not really been tested yet, but the one game was very fun and super deep. https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/TheBazaar

Yeah, I will probably go for the Shadow. As Ondeer pointed out, it kinda fulfills two roles for the ninjutsu tempo decks. If I had more space (blue is really tight) I could also see the Thief for some overlap with artifacts. Nah, I don't think so. Man-o'-War sees play without being incredible...

Thousand-Faced Shadow Prosperous Thief moonsnare Specialist How do you like those ninjas? I am already running all the good blue ninjas except Mist-Syndicate Naga, which would be too much for my cube.

So, my second entry is for the Azorius senate. They've had three pretty mediocre mechanics, so I though a lot about what really embodies the guild for me. It is the fact that they enforce the law in a magical way. So, the way I found to capture this in magic cards wasn't a traditional keyword...

So, for my first submission, I designed a new golgari keyword action, that works in a similar space as explore and connive do, where a chosen creature executes the action. This keyword lets them do everything the swarm loves - fill the graveyard, profit from it and grow your creatures. And, I...

But that's not entirely true. They have guidelines of how certain species, buildings or armor looks like, but the art styles are more connected to the artists involved. Artists like Zoltan Boros, Wayne Reynolds or Rebecca Guay habe very distinct art styles, you can identify their works easily...

Okay, a little update to the update. Colors other than red and white haven't been base colors for an aggro deck for a while. Those other colors could be part of different aggro decks, as they had enough cheap cards that support some specific micro synergy, like {R/G} madness, {B/R} aristocrats...

But your cube is only Urza's Block, right? You don't have access to nearly as many good discard and self mill outlets. I mean, it might still be a little rough to make it work on turn two in a singleton draft environment, but it's possible. Faithless Looting and Haggle are currently my only two...

I want to bring up a card I've overlooked again and again while doing scryfall searches, but now I realized something ... Harvest Wurm Isn't this technically a pretty decent madness card in disguise? You don't have to discard it but instead a basic land, and you don't even have to have mana up...

The upcoming winter update will be pulled ahead a little bit from january. I have a draft planned for the 30th, and I've heard rumors that my significant other got me some shiny new cards for christmas, so I just ordered the rest to have it be ready for that appointment. Elite Vanguard ...

Even if "No" wins, I'd say ~43% is pretty good. Two reasons: 1. Among the "non-enfranchised" players, who buy packs but don't know what blogatog is, I would expect more to be in favor of reminder texts when they fit (and remember, these players are the majority). 2. Even when more people don't...

Help me get a good result.

I like the Ozolith better. If your counters decks are very aggressive though, I would take Scales. If your counter decks aren't aggro but the Ozolith proves to be too slow anyway, I think your power level would be too high for a counter-tribal deck to really work.

I cube those already. They are great. I even have more although less aggro-playable versions of this effect. Levitating Statue Haunted Plate Mail Fountain of Ichor They're great to support wildfire-style decks too.

Thanks a lot for all those suggestions guys. However, I am complicated. Thran War Machine, Heraldic Banner and Welding Jar seem a little weak. Nettlecyst and Stonecoil Serpent seem a little pushed. Lodestone Golem and Monoskelion are already in the list. Others are too un-set-ish, too specific...

That's a good one, although I would say that's only technically a colorless card. I for one would feel inclined to slot this into my red section.

Are there colorless artifacts, low-middle power levels, that aggro and control decks would both be interested in? At least being fine with having them as their 24th card or something like that? I have a few in my list, but really not that many. Pacification Array Scroll of Fate Clockwork...

Roar of the Wurm and Honored Hydra are of course staples of my cube. Wouldn't ever cut them, as well a Call of the Herd. For this Fight Club, I think Grizzly Fate will be my winner. It's close with Beast Attack, but I already have some Bear token makers, so it wouldn't increase token creep, and...

Grizzly Fate Rise of the Ants Beast Attack Which of those big token spells with flashback do you like? Which you don't? And why?
