So Westworld finished up its first season with a big 90 minute finale, was a great watch. You've got a whole year to catch up on it before the 2nd season which apparently isn't coming until 2018. The show was pretty decent, not something all-time great ala Sopranos or The Wire but still a nice...

Yeah, there are a bunch of great Human typed cards in other colors. I find humans to function best as a "themeless theme" across multiple colors since there are just so many useful cards with that typeline (and my drafters can take advantage with a Utility Land Draft pick of Cavern of Souls)...

Good call on the Scrounger and Drana, I forgot those two existed since I haven't used either yet in my cube. Adding to the post under additional threats. Scrounger seems like a great addition to just about any B/x Aggro deck, but I think it ends up shining more in an R/B Aggro deck where the...

Archetype Spotlight: Black White Humans (Aggro) One of the more common problems that I've seen new cube designers run into is finding ways to bring enough support to aggressive archetypes to thrive in a midrange environment. The core idea behind drafting an aggressive deck is to apply...

Drafted Onder's cube, ended up in one of my favorite archetypes (currently writing a in-depth archetype primer for it like I mentioned the other day, stay tuned!): www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/644320[/url]"] Ones 1 Bloodsoaked Champion 1 Bloodsoaked Champion 1 Carrion Feeder 1 Champion of the...

While true, we need to consider the fact that creatures do tend to make up the majority of a cube, most draft decks, and that they are the primary card type within Green. The best way to think of Evo Leap is probably just as a static effect that grants "{G}, trade this creature in for another...

I find them fulfilling incredibly different roles in the decks they end up in. Sylvan Library is just better card selection off your draw every turn for slower decks where you can afford to take an early turn off, while Leap is usually just used to turn bodies into more bodies and accrue...

Had an idea earlier today. I like CBS for random cube discussions, but it's honestly tough to look up previous in depth discussions we may have had on specific archetypes. We've gotten used to the Riptide topic-jumping which has led to more organic discussions, but it would be difficult for a...

Sweet, cubetutor visual spoiler is up. The one on tappedout was unorganized had some weird overlay thing that was throwing me off. Way more inspired and interested now. Do you want us to post decks we come up with here and label whatever our final submission is when submission rolls around?

It's successful in Limited because of how print runs work, but it would be way too tedious to have to balance every single pack when it comes to a cube draft. You don't want one person to end up with a pack full of powerful rares and the person on the other side of the table to open up a pack of...

That's interesting, it's been the complete opposite for me. Pumping out blockers is a little annoying, but 0/1s aren't trading up with anything. If they are, then she's likely at a low loyalty by that point and dies to any single attacker that can get through blocks. It can be incredibly...

Agreed completely, new Nissa is a pretty sweet card. She's not gamewarping but is a powerful card that can do work. Sadly though, I really really like this one: Nissa, Voice of Zendikar And I try to avoid two of the same walker within the same exact colors.

I hate Hornet Queen. So much.

Which card do you dislike the most in an average cube? Let's say non-powered. I nominate: Hornet Queen Too generically powerful, good all the time, and it doesn't really have a whole lot of interesting play to it. You just plop it down on the board ASAP. It's a finisher that doesn't really...

Seems like this got lost in the middle of the draft replies. I've loved Ayli ever since I put her into the cube. She blocks really well as a 2/3 with Deathtouch holding the fort against more aggressive decks and any midrange fatties, the sac to gain life ability is pretty useful in bigger BW...

Anyone else watching Westworld? Show is pretty sweet. I'm loving all the reddit deepdiving that's been happening.

Knight of the Reliquary

Yes, I agree. I don't think he will be able to institute anything truly crazy (like the Muslim database or his stupid wall), but I 100% believe he will fall in line with the GOP and basically become a puppet president. He has many character flaws with narcissism being chief amongst them so I...
