I'm super excited to be able to embed visual decklists. Makes it so much easier to do an archetype focused article when you can actually show off examples.

Oh man, CubeCobra Cube overviews now have full markdown implemented. Articles too! I remember there were only a handful of basic options before, but there's so much you can do now. I must have missed it being highlighted in recent updates, but now you can get some really pretty overviews going...

All good options from Onder, especially the ones that a little weaker and require additional pieces to work. I'd say that big thing that you should be aware of if you deploy this kind of system is what problem you're trying to solve. Doubling down on sweet cards is completely fine, but I think...

If you're looking to beef up your G/x Aggro or Midrange strategies, I feel like doubling up on either of these guys could be pretty nice: Experiment One Pelt Collector I think Collector is better in a vacuum and has better upside overall, but Experiment One can get spicy and really help...

The special versions of Foretell cards don't seem to have the reminder text. I just did a quick Scryfall search and the normal version of all Foretell cards have reminder text except for: Glorious Protector Quakebringer And based off the text box, it's due to space restraints. Every other...

For aesthetics I'd agree, but when I was going through my cube I just didn't see any cards in blue I'd actually want to double up on with this system. I can reach out and ask him, should be relatively straightforward with the .psd template What are the 5 cards you'd want? Alternatively if...

Best case scenario for Thing in the Ice is playing it on T2, chaining enough spells to flip it by T5, then going to town. This is hoping that your opponent has no removal, isn't paying attention to what's happening, and that they don't interact in any meaningful way. It was sweet in a few...

After having my cube featured on CubeCobra recently I've been getting more and more questions regarding my Duplicate Voucher system. I had this draft sitting around the last few months on CubeCobra waiting for some touch-ups and figured now was as good a time as any to finish it up...

I think the problem when you get too narrow with ULD inclusions is that they end up competing with everything else available and might just not stack up in an actual draft. You don't want so many options that your drafters are overwhelmed, but you also don't want anything to jump out power level...

I'd go with Go For the Throat, Ultimate Price, and Heartless Act in that order. GFTH is just wildly efficient and hits just about every target you'd need in Cube and of the conditional removal you've listed, it's the most universally applicable. I'd say 9/10 times it's just straight up removal...

Mad lads, they did it!

I'm gonna be so broke if they just continue trotting out Cube all-stars in that Timeshifted slot.

Wow. A lot of stuff I'll have to pick up and swap out of my cube, these old borders just look like such a natural fit.

Don't have as much time to binge or dive into shows like I used to, but I was pretty deep into watching television as a hobby through much of my college years into my mid twenties. It was mostly dramas and comedies that made up the bulk of my viewing. Two series that I'd recommend people to...

So much Boros talk but so little love for my girl: Winota, Joiner of Forces Flip over a Basri's Lieutenant to grow your board, maybe a Silverblade Paladin to smash even more face, or even just a Fiend Hunter or Zealous Conscripts to clear the way. The possibilities are endless!

Showdown is pretty much the best card advantage you'll get in Boros colors. Essentially a 4 mana draw 4. If your deck is built low to the ground, this usually means refueling with bodies, some interaction, and maybe a piece of removal to use proactively. The appeal of it is that it's more...

After years of running a ULD, I think I've come to the conclusion that having fewer lands is actually better in the long run. Yes, more choices theoretically leads to more open-ended deck refinement post draft, but I've found that most of my drafters aren't especially adventurous or trying to...

It's been a great 7 years, but I've met someone else.

Oh yeah, NFL Films are always such high quality documentaries. This is a good one. His longevity has been insane relative to his peers. I don't really keep up much with the NFL (Diehard NBA fan), but I'll be aware of what's happening through group chats with friends. I was actually shocked...

Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous to think about. 7 Superbowl wins (and 10 appearances) is just absurd in terms of American Football with the parity and how drastically teams' fortunes shift on a season to season basis. The fact that he went to a middling team and then just flipped the script and won...
