Hell ya, those ones are good, too. I looked at... whatever the BFZ instant speed one is, but that seems pretty dumb to ramp OR counter. Too much power there, I think. Anyways, that's five that are Rampant+ without being overwhelming, so that's spot-on!

Ok, I'm just gonna add Rampant Growths and keep an eye on it. I have more knowledge this time around. You still think Cultivate is a good idea? Really liking Beanstalk Giant, Spring // Mind, and Grow from the Ashes as a Rampant Growth with a later bonus. EDIT: Zacama gets so ugly when you're...

Crumble has 5 ramp sources for T3 Ripjaw Raptor. Wheel of Change has 6 sources for T3 Ripjaw Raptor. I'm still pretty scared of T3 Raptor, which is often worse to deal with if you're Rx aggro than some 5/5. I'm suspecting Tek may be right that the appropriateness of the T3 Monster is...

Really cool to see some hard numbers on that stuff. I am curious if the removal answers the green decks, which answer the aggro decks. But the removal answers the aggro decks as well and aggro just gets squashed either way. I'm specifically worried about the theoretical T3 5/5 and don't also...

These are PERFECT to finally finish off the archetypes in my incel theme cube! Holy fucking fedora, this is a great day!

Damn, ya. That equip cost probably kills it. Equips are a weird one here. THICC GRUUL Brazen Freebooter Centaur Nurturer Circle of Elders Crystalline Crawler Drumhunter Eyeless Watcher Karametra's Acolyte Oasis Ritualist Rosheen Meanderer Avatar of Growth Emrakul's Hatcher Golos, Tireless...

Didn't notice Nyxborn is a 2/1 for B, d'oh! Soilshaper looks a bit too 4/4 for G. Really hate the look for a lot of the old cards and avoid them unless they're really on-point. Pestilent got a long look but ultimately seems like a LOT of stuff for 2 mana. Phantom is cool but gets annoying with...

I'm not worried about dealing with Rakdos' body, which is powerful, but I'm VERY worried about all the coin flips going wrong and his ETB goes +3 and the game effectively ends for 5 mana. Removal options are as endless as the one drop options. Smother is a poor man's Fatal Push. Last Gasp is...

Ya. I generally prefer to have P>T on each mana cost so that they can fight +/-1 cmc in either way. But you can't maintain that for every card and those two in particular are beatings. Nim is kind of like a "must attack" Watchwolf with an extra toughness but you can not attack at hefty cost...

Ya, haven't gone too deep on the ogre/demon part yet. Was just in that part of the list. Tomb's a little rough, maybe not worth a draft pick until LATE pack. Not sure. Flip a coin massive ETB randomness is probably lame. The other two are probably about right. It'll likely be a light tie-in to...

HOW DUMB IS THIS??? Suicide Rakdos with a touch of Ogre/Demon because that's where the list started and it's still a little relevant. Erg Raiders Fireslinger Fledgling Djinn Fretwork Colony Gloom Surgeon Horde Ambusher Raving Oni-Slave Wretched Anurid Audacious Thief Blade Juggler...

For sure. Another class of spells that get cast twice and will get a resultant -2 overall cost reduction. However, definitely a class of spells to be weary of as well, as they're essentially down-payment-ETBs. Quite a few of the rare ones, especially, are obviously too much value. Several of the...

1. I'm going to do the untapped lands rule and won't go with shock/fetch. I'll likely be on maybe tri/vivid or something unless that gets obscene with 5c bases. Don't love the searching and shuffling or the investment. It's kind of a necessary evil of typical cubes, but I'll see what happens...

HEDGE-MAGE?! First of all, to reply, Snakeform seems cute for sure and possibly good. I've used it at 3cmc and it felt like it got stuck in my hand a lot but it's a lot better at 2. I want to start by saying that I actually really like the concept of these guys, I just think that the...

SIMIC POST Let's wrap this up. Hybrid Groundling Pouncer Sturdy Hatchling Little hitter with a twist. Hatchling posted, but probably not great in 10-guilds. Ramp Gyre Engineer Weaver of Currents Urban Evolution Spring // Mind Tatyova, Benthic Druid Prime Speaker Zegana Sagu Mauler Simic...

BOROS POST On a roll, let's keep the posts going. Almost done with 'em. Hybrid Fresh-Faced Recruit Belligerent Hatchling Spitemare Shattering Blow Arrows of Justice Recruit is a little pushed but I'm not too worried. Boros is an attacking guild, after all. Spitemare is a fixed Reckoner. Blow...

GOLGARI POST Hybrids Pitiless Gorgon Golgari Longlegs Doomgape Cankerous Thirst Death bear, bit of fat, REALLY fat and probably not good, and an interesting (maybe too strong in those tough combats) removal spell. Sac Poison-Tip Archer Golgari Germination Interestingly, this section is...

IZZET POST Hybrids Shrewd Hatchling Nucklavee Hatchlings are kinda cool but probably fall a bit flat in ten guild build. Nuck is sick. High enough on the curve plus below average stats makes me not mind the +2 that you have to work for on ETB. Spells Matter Bloodwater Entity Gelectrode...

Ok, let's reply to all this :) Haze is fine but I don't really want to get out 13 dice to keep track of one spell. Knell is cool but doesn't support my themes. Could make the cut as one of five guilds, but not in ten. Hedge Mages are pretty nasty ETBs all around. Liege is gonna snowball SUPER...
