    People win by tight play, optimizing the cards they draw. It's true that Battle Box does not give the player much agency over their deck, since there is no deck construction involved, however, there are a few things that I like very much about the format: It is compact and portable, making it an...

    Yes. I have one, and it's awesome :) https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/sbb I haven't updated it in a while, but the driving concept is sequencing tension. Roughly the following guidelines are in place: 1 mv drops need to be relevant in the late game. 2+ mv drops need at least two colored mana...

    We have those as well, but the fresh ones are better. Fresh, warm stroopwafels are a treat! However, if you fail to get hold of a fresh stroopwafel stand, literally every supermarket in the Netherlands sells prepackaged ones. Stroopwafel survival guide (or: how to prepare for eating a...

    It's like the Dutch being proud of "typical" Dutch products like ice skates (invented in Finland) or the cheese slicer (invented in Norway). Stroopwafels though? They're Dutch, and they're some of the most yummie "biscuits" you'll ever taste! Definitely buy some fresh stroopwafels somewhere when...

    Yeah, I wouldn't advocate running this in a cube without a decent number of other zombies, because the line can be misleading. That said, it still works in a deck without any supporting zombies, and I like that quality in a card.

    PS. Why for anyone wondering why they decided to make tribal a card type instead of a supertype: Q: troublingpath asked: Why isn't Tribal a super type? A Tribal spell doesn't mean anything by itself. A: magicjudge answered: The point of the Tribal type is so that non-creature spells can have...

    What I mean with "a self-contained tribal card" is that it is a card that rewards you for playing the tribe, but also works just fine on its own. For example, Cryptbreaker is a card I love, because while it is better when you couple it with a few other zombies in your deck, it also makes its own...

    Oooooh, I forgot about Grist! That's sneaky, because I did do type line searches in Scryfall, but you can't find Grist that way! :) Alright, we're off to the races then! Grist, the Hunger Tide Urza's Saga Commit // Memory Altar of the Goyf Let's goooo! {4}{U} for the maximum eight Spirit...

    I think Chandra, Dressed to Kill is sneakily good. Planeswalkers at mv 3 are always a bit more dangerous, because they can enter the battlefield before your opponent deployed enough threats to deal with the walker. When you pass the turn, Chandra will have 4 loyalty, which can be hard to kill on...

    Incorrect. I'll quote the official rules here, which you can also find when you search for Commit // Memory on Scryfall or Gatherer. "While not on the stack, the characteristics of a split card are the combination of its two halves. For example, Destined // Lead is a green and black card, it is...

    Yes. Your highest EV is paying {3}{U}, and discarding (for example) Commit // Memory, Urza's Saga, and Torrential Gearhulk, creating six Spirit tokens, or 1.5 Spirit token per mana spent. That's quite a ridiculous rate, but you are binning some pretty relevant spells in that scenario.

    It also depends a lot (like, a lot) on how consistently you can find your Tron pieces. Currently there are no ways to do that at all, but obviously we're only an Expedition Map reprint away from that.

    We've had Tron in standard before. It isn't a given that this leads to horrible decks.
