    TF2 actually has one of the highest player counts on Steam, far more than when the game was new!

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I haven't had the time to do this in ages, so I'm going to just plop down all the updates I had in my maybeboard: Painful Truths > Tendrils of Agony Once Upon a Time > Abundant Harvest Molten Vortex > Underworld Breach Thirst for Discovery > Brain Freeze Imperial Recruiter > Mizzium Tank...

    They simply seem to care less. Look at Bellowsbreath Ogre. Why is it an artifact creature? There are a lot of weird details about the Alchemist cards.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I'm too much of a coward to make larger changes so I'm just going to try this: Genesis Wave > Fastbond Basri's Lieutenant > Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle I'm still like "well, I could try to support storm again but..."

    "Fast" multiplayer cube

    I've looked at the whole card pool and there are no more good green graveyard payoffs. You have the same set I do and, after that, the options just aren't that great. Honored Hydra is a bit questionable already, even. You have Genesis (too slow), Hooting Mandrils (too fair, small and can't be...

    Bridge from Below Does this have a place in fair graveyard decks?

    I've added this card to my cube and I'm going to print its additional text so you can slip it inside the sleeve: Antique Collector I like this card for several reasons. The most important is that it's a good green two-drop. There are surprisingly few cards in that category, most are support...

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    Some thoughts after a brief break. First, I like the stuff you talk about your first bit and I'm glad you are keeping the Gearhulk for now. It just works with everything you have listed. Regarding the cuts, I think Metallic Mimic is not necessary. Like you say, it's needs Persist combo or...

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    I see no loss in cutting Angel of Invention but I've grown very fond of the Gearhulk. It's one of the few chunky creatures I run and, despite its efficiency, it has never been unfun. It has always seemed fun to me and the artifact synergies are big. With it and Esika's Chariot you can get good...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I think I'm going to do something unusual and that's to cut two sacrifice outlets instead of one. And I think my choices ought to be Flesh Carver and Diabolic Intent. Smallpox is not as well-supported as I would have hoped but I really like the card. So I thought about it and I like the 1-2-4...

    Sets (NEO) Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Previews

    I'm not into "the lore" so why are people upset about Tamiyo being "compleated"?

    What I mean is that you spend one card just to bring it to the table so it's card disadvantage. I don't know, I just tried to play it in draft so many times and it never worked.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    And which one is it? I don't know! I mean, I guess one of the spells is one, but I was thinking of the creatures. Carrion Feeder is out of the question. Flesh Carver is cuttable but he's a human wizard. Yawghmoth is OP and an easy cut but I also like that it's a bit OP.

    Arkbow just doesn't work as a card. It costs you a card and doesn't provide card advantage. It also costs more to use than to actually play the creature and you may not hit it so it ends up being as expensive as Arcane Encyclopedia.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I want to run Mukotai Soulripper but I don't know which card to cut for it. I run too many sacrifice outlets so as to add another one D: Mukotai Soulripper

    I don't know if this is the best place to talk about it but Boseiju, Who Endures is increasingly seeming like a massive mistake to me. The fact that all green decks now get a free mainboard naturalize/field of ruin at no real cost is the kind of warping metagame effect I hate in card games. It's...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Some small changes to improve card types or simply make everything more well-rounded: Add: Lodestone Golem Containment Construct The Golem is a beefy 4-drop that fits well in a wide range of decks. I hope it boosts artifact, taxing and ramp decks. Containment Construct is very much worth...

    It's a good card that gives Boros card advantage and ties into several themes. It's good for slower, big mana decks and also more aggressive ones as a finisher. I think it's a much cooler and more interesting card than Tajic. It is very strong, though. I wouldn't recommend it for lower powered...

    Sigardian Evangel Isn't this an interesting card? You can just have a supply of proxies if needed and it seems more interesting than a straight X spell. What do you think?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    A couple friends cornered me after playing at the club and asked me when we were going to play with my cube again. On one hand, I can just take it with the improvements I've made so far and it will work perfectly. On the other, I want to keep working on it! I just saw how you can boost...
