That much I figured out, that's why I'm asking :oops: I guess Arguel's Blood Fast can lead to more interesting games. Phyrexian Arena is very good, but also pretty... generic.

Phyrexian Arena Arguel's Blood Fast Which of these two is more interesting? I run Zur the Enchanter and a minor historic theme in white in my cube, but almost no land destruction. PS I know about Underworld Connections, that's not the card I'm looking for.

Thanks for suggesting this one. It somehow escaped my radar. In the second game I playtested it, the only flyer my opponent had out was a Stormwild Capridor (which I added to have more synergy in white for Wildfire and Pyrohemia). It fit really well into the {g/u} self-mill shell I had drafted...

Oh whelp, Commander Masters confirmed then! As for From the Vault, I dislike foils. My preference goes nonfoil new border > nonfoil 8e border >> nonfoil old border > nonfoil alternate borders that are close to normal (Time Spiral timeshifted, Planar Chaos colorshifted) >> foils (in the same...

Well, they want to lure all kinds of players into buying the Masters sets, so of course there are going to be Commander staples in there. Let's just wait and see what else they will reprint. Any of Deftblade Elite, Pianna, Nomad Captain, Waterfront Bouncer, Complicate, Compulsion, Probe...

I'll just quote myself from February 2018 :) Actually, this is a relevant link for this discussion: https://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/grbs-colorless-pack-1-pick-1-cards.1873/

I bet they're testing out potential rules changes to the companion mechanic like crazy right now, so they're no longer effectively an 8th card.

So, after receiving some of my Ikoria cards yesterday, I noticed I forgot to test one particular card. General's Enforcer I don't support tribal humans anymore, but there are a lot of incidental human legendaries, and those legendaries really benefit from being indestructible. There's this...

I think Stampede Driver is better in general, mostly because it's a one drop, which is a lot better than a two mana 1/1.

Well, ackchyually... (ugh... sorry, I'm :rolleyes: at myself right now ;)) According to MaRo's most recent in-depth article about the color pie from 2017, white in fact does have tertiary access to counterspells. I admit it's from a while ago (and I'ld love for him to do an update), but it's...

Thanks! Yeah, I'm of the opinion that Magic needs more of Mana Tithe and Lapse of Certainty. Conditional counterspells that exist as an extension of taxing effects and temporary removal that are already part of white's color pie. Blue doesn't need to hog all the counterspells!

Today I wondered, what would happen if you put Mana Tithe on an adventure card? Immediate consensus on the MTG Cube Brainstorming Discord was I created a broken card, but going back and forth a bit led to this beauty :)

I love Rankle to death, it's really strong, but also really fun to build around.

o_O Have you been stalking me? I cut all of these when I first powered down my cube, like... /me checks CubeTutor archive... five years ago! (Okay, except Nissa obviously, she wasn't around back then.) I've dug a little bit deeper and found some more. In no particular order... Thragtusk...

Yeah, Stonecoil Serpent seems relatively reasonable, but it pretty specifically hoses my cube :')

You could take a look at my cube for some inspiration. I run Feather, and recently added a number of heroes, together with quite a number of things that (sometimes incidentally) target. Ha! I should have mentioned that one too. I cut Hangarback Walker as well for the same reason. I even...

I feel like there's superior versions to this Rhonas's Monument Deepwood Drummer Heart of Yavimaya Elder of Laurels Forbidden Lore Narcissism looks like a pretty bad rate to me, considering that it doesn't pressure the board, costs a whopping three mana, and requires you to discard cards for...

They did say they already //searched "costs" "less" and for "rather than paying"//, so I assumed they already found that card :)

Sue me :P For real though, I think the name is perfect. Naya is immediately associated with RGW, and Triome is immediately associated with tricycles. It's the perfect name as far as I'm concerned. You could even argue, from a flavor point of view, that the shards were by definition triomes! :)

I thought of another one from way back when. Roar of the Wurm Which inspired me to dig some more and find (only listing the ones that shave off at least 2 mana and with a cmc of at least 3)... battle screech prismatic strands spirit flare deep analysis echo of eons dread return traitor's...
