Can I justify a 3MV slot in my cube for someone with a big butt that draws 1-2 cards every turn cycle in the right deck? Yes, right? This is very cute and very neat. I don't think it'll get there in power-level for my main cube but for my travel cube, I'm very interested. Red removal! Kind...

For when you're done making decisions! Look, I'm not posting this guy just because he looks like a fun guy. Descend 4 isn't terrible to hit, and this could realistically be a 5/5 trample for 3 that signposts the self-mill theme I have lightly in GB. It doesn't feel quite as powerful as other...

I like them. I run five in my 720: Esika's ChariotSmuggler's CopterNight ScytheSkysovereign, Consul FlagshipThunderhawk Gunship I like them quite a bit. I consider them in a similar space to Living Weapon and the like, and have not proven too complex even for newer players.

This set is going to singlehandedly lower the curve of my cube.

Love love love the Scallywag. Between this and Inti, Sun's Caretaker, I'm in shock. This set is unbelievably good for red 2s. When I first saw Inti, I thought "oh, is this finally Red's long-awaited iconic 2-drop creature?" forgetting the last 7 years of Young Pyromancer dominance by the end of...

Here we go, time for controversy: Please Don't Make a Peasant Cube

I really like this design and think it's a pretty ideal form of this type of big artifact creature they've made a few times (even if it's not as delightfully silly as the Myr Katamari). I'd probably be Cubing it if it cost 6.

I mean that I swapped out all of the BFZ man lands for the WOE ones, and I'm anticipating I'll do the same with the WWK ones if they're all as good as this Llama. Very stoked. I hate this so much, folks. The art is great on the A side Plains, but making a basic land unnecessarily a DFC is...

Beautiful art and exciting flavor, I'm really loving this set already. How many Dinos do I need to run this? Her being a 2/2 for 2 that also incidentally hates on yards makes her a pretty good contender without the rest of the text for being a top tier 2MV mana dork. The additive...

I couldn't have less interest in an UB set, but it feels inevitable. House of Mouse wins even when it loses.

The alienating part. That's my own personal reaction vs. yours, nothing more! I don't think it's a crammed release schedule personally either. Their internal data will certainly be deciding it, but what I'm saying is that I think it's finding a good rhythm.

I completely disagree but it was a terrible move to have this reveal literally the week after Doctor Who released. I would've done anything, anything, even disrupt Ixalan spoilers, to avoid these optics. We're at a rate of 2 UB releases a year, and a handful of SLs. It's honestly very...

Unbelievably lovely lands that tell a great story -- what a great way to utilize WUBRG order! Some all-timers across the board. However, I personally prefer these: These isometric-styled lands inspired by the first two Fallout games are a delight. Nostalgic and evocative while being valuable...

I wrote an article on the topic for Cardboard by the Numbers and it's gotten pretty heated discussion on Twitter. It's the article I've written I'm most happy with, which is frustrating when I made a dumb mistake on the first iteration (I forgot most sets have 30 set boosters per box, not 24...

Totally get why (article coming soon) but I'm sad that we're forced to get foils and random bonus rares in our drafts. They say they're designing with it in mind, and I did love MOM draft a lot, so maybe I'm being alarmist, but I do think this negatively impacts the integrity of retail drafts as...

Yeah, I ran it for a long time, but Monarch isn't the way I wanted to go in my Cube. It's a great pick though!

Necron DeathmarkDalek Drone I think they're close. I wouldn't particularly prefer the Dalek Drone in a vacuum, but I can't pretend I don't prefer nugging my opponent for 3 over milling (usually myself) a few cards. A 5/3 on the ground is generally worse than a 3/3 that's de-facto unblockable...

I didn't pick that one up yet, but DM me your budget and I can see what I can do - almost all of the sales for these I've been able to find have been in private FB groups and only ship to the US, but I'd be happy to serve as in-between for Europe now that I'm back here.

You missed my favorite, Really Charming Prince! It sucks that it's at random, but that also helps with choice paralysis, and I can have the 4 of them ready to go in my token box. Having this effect on a 2MV 2-power flyer is pretty fun, I think. I was able to snag original copies of Force of...

New round of Alchemy spoilers for Eldraine, it's been on hold for a while and I'm not sure why they started this back up, but as @Chris Taylor said in another thread a few days ago: It's worth looking at these designs, since they're not really being discussed anywhere from a design POV. As...
