Signed for the Cube Cobra Content Creator program and got approved, published an updated version of my B/W Humans thread from years back. I'll be cross-posting anything interesting I end up writing here in the main forum or in my cube blog over there in some form. Hopefully we can get some more...

Riddleform, I wouldn't even touch Skywise Teachings. Too expensive, too restrictive a window, and just doesn't do enough.

Glimpse is a bit too narrow and fights with a ton of cool options in Dimir for that gold slot. My poison of choice is a Riptide Lab classic: Mesmeric Orb Gives you a win-con for grindy games, fuels self-mill strategies, and you can pull off Lab Man/Thassa's Oracle wins more readily. I added...

I'm in favor of removing it. It never really made much sense to me in the first place. Trying to have discussions sidestep already known information to avoid spoilers, especially in narrow threads discussing specific aspects of cube or design questions, is downright pointless. What the point of...

This an EDH only card, specifically for Aminatou and other blink decks. It's just way too slow and clunky in a regular match as a 2/2 factory which just isn't all that impactful. Unless you're using stuff like Aminatou, the Fateshifter, Thassa, Deep-Dwelling or Venser, the Sojourner to blink and...

Sent it to you in message, enjoy!

For once there are pretty sparse inclusions to my cube. Kinda thankful for it with the flurry of cards we've gotten in the last year from Modern Horizons onwards. This is what I'll be adding in: Nothing too exciting here. I'm just not a huge fan of a majority of the modal land cards and the...

I didn't actually make them on my own; a buddy of mine who's good at Photoshop made them for me a while back. Afterwards he just printed them out at Office Depot on some cardboard stock. I have zero familiarity with Photoshop and can't really help you out with specifics, but if you want to use...

I agree that modal cards are great in higher powered environments when you're still getting a decent rate of return. You won't get the most efficient version of a given effect, but the flexibility is what makes cards like Collective Brutality or Thassa's Intervention worth the slot. I don't...

I agree with Train, for cantrips and card filtering effects the cheaper the better. I was all aboard with the heavier impact higher costing cards for a long time thinking that it wasn't worth it wasting time on little effects, but practice revealed that you just needed greater mana efficiency...

The vast majority of these imposter land cards don't quite get there in most cubes. I'd say the only one that interests me is the Landfall Elephant, but even then it's mostly as just a beater to push through damage. In a lower powered format utilizing bouncelands however? I think these are...

I just think if you attach that Bonesplitter to a 1/1 to get that 3/1 you get a ton of value just by having a decent body to pressure life totals and trade away without going down a card. Ancestral Blade is just the safe spot they settled on I guess. It's a little surprising that BS hasn't been...

Fair. It's an option and I've got nothing against customs in general, but I just prefer using real cards and filling in the holes as things get printed. More fun to solve the puzzle little by little.

Congrats Wadds, good luck! Enjoy the next few months and try to get sleep when you can!

Give me my Enemy BFZ Lands you cowards!

Probably jumps to one of the best equipment at +2/+0, it's just Bonesplitter at that point with the same equip cost. It's solid as is at +1/+1. Being a second copy of Bonesplitter and the token coming in as a 3/1 would have been pretty damn strong imo.

There are a handful of options, most are viable at a lower power level. I do think this card is the shit though: This is the perfect power level for a high end equipment imo. Getting the free equip when it ETBs is clutch in making this a real beating when it lands. The equip cost being a...

She's perfectly average. I don't know if you're actually going to spend much time utilizing the token aspect of it; it reads like a card you just ultimate ASAP to get the most out of. Gameplay patterns aren't all that interesting and I'm not sure which deck actually wants her. I think all three...

The lower your power threshold, the more viable a Landfall archetype is. I don't think you can quite get there at a higher power level, but if your cube is middle of the road power wise you can likely make it work. There are just so many cards that have been printed that interact with lands in a...

Pretty interesting set, didn't see anything too egregiously busted yet as far as cube goes which is good. Seems like they've toned down power level a bit. That said, there are so many cards in this set that just feel bloated. A lot of these cards just don't read very pretty. For every cleanly...
