    Stronghold, no question. Great lightning, composition and pose. I also like the colours and it has a great flavour text. 7h Edition: Awful, clumsy and amateurish. Onsalught: Like most of the block, ugly and poorly shaped. They didn't have an art director at the time and it shows. Funny flavour...

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    Still, would you say you have been increasing the power level since you first toned it down? I'm curious.

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    Can Vesperlark bring back Multani and Fiend Artisan? Or do they have different power while they are in the graveyard as well?

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    Inscho, is your newer version of the cube just an excuse to play Vesperlak? Just wondering.:D

    Inscho's Graveyard Combo Cube

    I've found Wildfire-like decks like to be WR. You can actually build many atypical control or midrange decks in that shell using cards like Sevinne's Reclamation, Land Tax, Cataclysm, Seismic Assault, etc. The main issue is that most WR creatures are not defensive.

    Any recommendation for green 1-drops that are NOT mana dorks?

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Venser is a great design. He is generically good, but he also costs four mana. If you play him as an expensive remand, that's not great. Getting the best out of him and his feeble body is interesting and fun.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I feel weird. I've been coming here everyday, trying to polish my cube. And now it seems it's almost complete with only one card up or down that I can change. Time to do just that and refloat my thread on the other one?

    Moonveil Dragon I'm sorry but this card has a kickass art. Is it actually decent or just a Shivan Dragon?

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    So I went and played my cube with two other people. It was fun and it was a real test of fire for my cube. The first was an old Netrunner buddy. The guy is a great card game player though he hadn't played Magic in more than a decade. The second was a newcomer to my club, who had played a lot...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Is drawing cards the best effect in gaming? At least I think so. I'm meeting a friend today so yesterday I took a list of all the changes I've done on my cube, added a bunch of random cards I thought of and went to the printer to make some proxies. Sadly, I did not print Valakut Exploration to...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Those are all great suggestions Nanonox. I've actually considered them before! I decided against Liliana and Flesh Carver because both are a bit too powerful, at least at a glance. This is why I run baby Liliana, for example. I'll probably add Call of the Herd right now. I did not include it...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Yesterday I did the full set of archetypes for each color pair: UW Blink UB Reanimator UR Discard UG Self-Mill WR Tokens WG Convoke (Earthcraft) WB Hatebears (Humans) GR Lands GB Recursive Rock BR Aristocrats Three color combinations are not as solid. I have shards that are great and...

    Ultimately,w hile Mask of Memory requires you to run through some hoops, it does give you card advantage. With extra filtering at that. Zephyr Boots is card disadvantage only to turn a creature into a looter and give it flying.

    General [STX] Strixhaven Spoilers

    This is the first time I've heard about these two cards! Do you guys think they are better/more interesting for reanimator decks than: Artisan of Kozilek?

    "Fast" multiplayer cube

    Robber of the Rich is probably better in your cube since you have more players to attack. My issue with the card is that it's often blank on the draw and even then has a 40% chance of not doing anything. Big Thalia is great and very versatile, I recommend giving her a try.

    Sets (STX) Strixhaven Testing/Includes Thread

    I'm not liking the set so far. Multicolour focus, two-faced cards that have nothing to do with each other and a spellslingers theme might be fun in other formats but there's little that. So far the only cards that have caught my eye are: Elite Spellbinder Callous Bloodmage Conspiracy Theorist

    General Nega-Cube on Magic Online

    I don't think so. If it went by ELO it would not pass Garruk Wildspeaker and other generically powerful cards. However, it might be part of the equation as the bots do overdraft Tinker.

    General Nega-Cube on Magic Online

    One factor I've noticed is that Cobra has very little "memory". If you pass a card for a couple of drafts it will sink to the bottom. For example, Garruk Wildspeaker should be picked by any gree drafter at the table but if I don't take it for a couple drafts because I'm not on those colours, the...
