    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I'm thinking of three humans in green to extend the archetype into those colours: Antique Collector Sylvan Safekeeper Briarbridge Tracker Channeler Initiate Channeler would replace Incubation Druid. It's a step down in power, but it's a way of cramming in another human.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Want to hear something crazy? I'm thinking of cutting Flickerwisp. Yes, you heard that right. If I want to cut 1 blink spell, it's probably the best target. The reason is that it costs 3 mana, which is always the most overcrowded slot and it's white as opposed to blue. That said, I could just...

    I run almost all the cards you listed Inscho! I actually had Death Cloud in for a while but I found it was mostly a second or third copy of Wildfire in how it played. As for Nanonox's suggestions, I think Winter Orb is absurdly strong. Balance...I tried it but it's just too cheap. If it were...

    Brought Back Second Sunrise Do these cards to anything? Or are they exclusively for combo builds?

    Other than the obvious, which cards do you recommend me to support Stax in BW?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Haha, you guys are the best! I really love to see the decks you drafted, thank you. Dom making a decklist called "Save Cryptbreaker!" really made me laugh! And props to Nanonox for making the most powerful deck I've seen so far in my cube. I think you are completely right Nanonox. As I see it...

    How strong is Bitterblossom? And how annoying is it? Do you guys think it would add anything to my cube or am I better off looking elsewhere?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Ok, it's time to start making cuts. I keep coming across two different issues while drafting my cube. The first one is a handful of powerful cards that don't create any interesting archetypes or pull you into any interesting directions but that are so strong you feel obligated to abandon...

    Dom's Stream of Consciousness

    I'm with you. Ultimately, the issue I have with most of these cards is just how wordy and inelegant they are. Being digital doesn't make that barrier any better, it just allows them to be playable despite suffering from a massive design flaw. I'll be honest, I've played against a good bunch of...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Ok, some updates. First, I've loved the additions of all the cards I listed on my last update. Sure, I'm worried about Oath of Druids but drafting it has been a blast. The questionable picks are: Hidden Stockpile Fastbond As neither is doing much. But I did get some beautiful decks with the...

    "Fast" multiplayer cube

    I'm surprised you didn't run Vengevine, I thought you did! Can't recommend it enough, it's a great build-around and adds beef to the cube, which is always in too short of a supply.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    While I think about Nanonox's suggestions, I've decided to make some other small improvements or just try out some new stuff. It is not easy and I admit being a bit lost. These are the changes I'm most sure about. Stromkirk Noble > Falkenrath Pit Fighter Bygone Bishop > Welcoming Vampire...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Sorry, I was too succient! What I mean is that I don't know if my drafters will recognize the synergy. I can tell them a +1+/1 counter and a -1/-1 one counter each other, though. I did try a counters theme, but it was long ago and mostly in another cube. There's a bunch of cool stuff you can do...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I tried persist combo but it was either too strong or too weak and it didn't really add much. It's also hard for players to notice how the combo works, most won't know the rules or simply don't think about it, sadly.
