Hi kev! You've inspired me to make a cube with heavy morph support. I am going in a different direction, but i would love to chat about some things that affect us both! 1) have you considered duplicates or triplicates of key morphs? One of the defining aspects of ktk was pinpointing which...

Some of the higher cmc cards can be played as morphs, but i have no insight on the actual curve at the moment. I need to make an evasion-power-toughness matrix and an evasion-color-cmc matrix to look more into combat and game pacing. This draft was actively "balanced" solely on mechanical...

Jason : Only CubeTutor drafts have occurred this far. I might build it on MTGO after a bit of tuning if there is interest! (Should be cheap.) Grillo: I take lands pretty highly when in non-Orzhov, so it may skew the bots. I have been thinking there should be a bit less Orzhov-only lands...

Ecumenopolis Enslaved: The Orzhov Oppression Cube Check out the visual spoiler courtesy of CubeTutor The Idea A color-pair-skewed cube constructed to operate similarly to other cubes (shuffle up 360 and deal 15-card packs) with a heavy morph focus. Think Judgment if it had been made...

What are you using to draft? I have bookmarked this thread to revisit it when my brain works and offer advice. I can say that promo and foils were terrible last time I tried something like this on MTGO (and that I used the method Dom described).

I have Ugin's paperweight in a fantasy set based on Scars of Mirrodin, and it hasn't seen much love :( Even Lighthouse Chronologist and Time Sieve get borked by it! Good luck getting players to draft & play it, Grillo; I want to see that terrible tempo loss live! Ripwad, does this cube have a...

Hi Modin! I wondered if you were still working on this recently, as I just made a third one... Glad to see that you are :) Let me preface this with I will be overly brief until sometime after tomorrow; I aim to comment on more of your issues and help foster discussion, but I have an obligation...

Wooo! Exciting :) Just perusing the colors at each rarity, I notice a possible issue in green. While all other colors have a 5-5-creature-spell split (which seems correct +/- one card) in C1, green has 8 creatures and 2 spells. Since C1 cards are represented so much more frequently than other...

Reading this helped me overcome the final hurdle of selling my "competitive" MTGO collection, dismantling the shell of a belief that tournaments populated with the average MTG competitive enthusiast could ever create a positive experience for me. And the reddit link brought me back to riptide...

I think that this was the case, and it really showed which strategies and cards were "premium". Also, the game speed involving decks at the high end of power distribution was often so fast that few "cool" interactions occurred; the gameplay was more-or-less face pummeling and/or heavy domination...

Jeskai Elder Don't cut! ...please?

I always CT draft w/ 7 bots + 15-card packs. Am I doing it wrong? (If not, then each draft should have all of the 50 lands.) Also, I have been thinking a lot about UW auras/heroic and am going to try out this as a card for creature decks: Mystic Veil RE: targeting: In my experience, Eel...

Depending on the speed of the format, the swarm, salvagers and codex shredder *could* start in the SB. I have no idea how much of turn 1-3 is spent under aggression (but seeing some of my other decks, I could see a pretty brutal early game followed by turn 4-6 reactive protection of threats).

It may surprise you to discover that I have sporadic "drafting problems" via MTGO 8-4s; in my FKKing experiences, I wanted at least one Tormenting Voice in almost any deck that was playing but not splashing red (okay w/o if deck was 16-lands, non-Monastery Swiftspear CMC1s or used Bitter...

I must've been tired last night to forget to ask this question: what about 10 trilands over 20 gainlands? Yes, I am obsessed with "modal duals" :eek:, but after a draft or two, players might draft them as such! You are probably right to keep the 20 bouncelands. With a few drafts, a player...

Right now, I am smitten with the following lower-powered cards: Tormenting Voice Temur Sabertooth Ainok Survivalist Honorable mention: clan trilands! These open an interesting design space with ALA's shard trilands. Honorable mention: Impact Tremors. I know y'all have been waiting to jam...

I have been drafting some on CT with the newer edits, and almost all of the decks seem reasonable and fun! Though without human minds (and only the dumb CT bots), I have felt like there are too many lands. Maybe it really is just a bot thing, but I never prioritized taking mana-fixing lands and...
