LIAR! ;)

Short answer: No. Long answer: There isn't enough support or payoff there to support the theme in mono-white, but there are enough cards there to support it in {w/b} or {r/w}. I imagine it would take a bit of tinkering to make sure {b/r} isn't going to steal the thunder from the white...

Speak for yourself :p I honestly don't find Ancestral Blade boring at all, and it's a card I'm always excited to play, precisely because it's so versatile!

It's an imaginary 6/6 :P

It's basically morph, but card type agnostic and without the Grey Ogre body. I think your example is too straightforward. There will definitely be designs like that (just like there were with morph), but I also fully expect designs like this (if the mechanic will indeed see print as rumored)...

Don't you ever worry about Ancestral Blade being too boring japahn! Every aggro deck needs solid two drops to function, and this is one of the most interesting ones I've found. Like you said, it has so much play to it! Also, there is only so much you can do for two mana, these are never going to...

I cut the combo from my cube because I didn't find the repetitiveness fun, plus paying only a single {w} for each 1/1 soldier is actually a rather powerful rate in any cube where you have time to assemble and capitalize on a combo like this.

I cut him from my cube for being slightly too efficient. Flesh Carver is rather hard to interact with, and it's hard to get punished unless there's a bunch of exile effects in your cube.

Repeatable scry 3 is a lot stronger in formats with either a wide power band (where finding your bomb means you likely win) or with a strong combo element (where assembling the combo means you likely win). My cube is mostly synergy based with a relatively small power band, I don't think there...

I can't remember a single player complaining about the card. I don't believe it's significantly harder to interact with either, as Mystic Speculation can only be countered by counterspells and targeted discard, whereas my custom can be targeted by (sorcery speed) graveyard hate. With the...

Any archetype, since it's a one mana white cantrip?

It has been fine in my experience. Scry 2 is a lot less overbearing than scry 3, and 3 mana is typically quite a huge investment in the early to mid game for a card that doesn't affect the board. In fact, it hasn't been overwhelming at scry 3 + Invest either, but I did feel I needed to make the...

Yeah, Train sums it up pretty well! It's a really lovely card. 3/2 is a superb statline for interactive play, from a cube design point of view, but it can feel bad to have 3 drops trade for 2 drops, since you're losing mana invested in the exchange. Woe Strider nicely dances around that issue...

Yeah, the scry 2 version :) (in spoilers for those who don't want to see no custom cards in here ;)

This is amazing. I run more, but I have no overlap with your set! Condescend Witching Well Omen of the Sea Woe Strider Contraband Kingpin Hidden Stockpile Nissa, Steward of Elements Plus a custom card blue Squee, Goblin Nabob sorcery that scries and creates a Clue token.

Great post Train!

Re: Accorder Paladin; I encourage you to try out Rhox Veteran! It's so much more solid than it looks! Funny thing is I run both Signal Pest and the Rhox, but not Accorder Paladin :) There's always new mechanics I want to try out, and the white two slot is one of the most contested ones in my...

You can put the scryfall search patterns between code brackets ("[ code ]" and "[ / code ]" without the spaces). o:"you control a" -o:planeswalker -o:commander c=1 (o:white or o:blue or o:black or o:red or o:green or o:plains or o:island or o:swamp or o:mountain or o:forest)

Not everyone likes superhero stories :) (I'm not saying I don't, but I know there are definitely people turned off by the Jacestice League)

The "all ghosts are bad and must die" mentality is a bit one dimensional, and she joined the Avengers Gatewatch.
