Yes! :) I would absolutely be interested to hear about that, even though I'm notoriously lax at visiting the cubes part of the forum. Daunting is the right word. It's why I've never finished the project. Well, so far.

Green is doing just fine in my cube without 1 cmc ramp.

There's a skeleton for exactly this idea here. I've been brooding on it on and off over the years, never completing it. But there's a bunch of cards already sleeved, waiting for me to devote some time to the empty sleeves :')

https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgcube/comments/d40skv/cube_cobra_update_21/ Cube Cobra just released a new version that supports custom card images through external hosting! :) Hype!

This sums up my feelings about the quadbrids pretty well. Everything about the casting cost screams: "Look at me! I'm special!", and when I do, I'm like: "that's supposed to be special? Meh."

Snapping Drake is a common, and approximately 598% easier to cast. 2CC is way less restrictive than this as well. In an average limited environment, people end up in two colors most of the time, though with adamant also in the set, it's possible in ELD for people to end up in monocolored, I...

I find it funny that it can't kill colored artifacts. Also not really intuitive. Maybe I should swap out Cratermaker....

Tangle Wire Nothing, this card is awesome, even if it's very powerful. I've found this to be a far more flexible and interesting crutch for aggro strategies than Sulfuric Vortex. I think this is by far the most contentious card in my cube, but I could be wrong...

Not that Feather is still a solid 3/4 flyer for 3. You don't need many tricks to make her worth it. In fact, I'm not sure you need any at all.

Oh right, devotion. Huh. Wonder if they're good enough in even that, but that probably did have some consequences. Also, while I obviously was wilfully biased in my comparison, I do actually think that the evasion on Gingerbrute is better. On later turns you often have mana to spare, and...

Hey, they previewed another decent-ish quadbrid! I'm beginning to believe they are making all the playable ones nonblack just to spite you. Also, here is a common that's approximately 327% easier to cast! Luckily it's worse... Oh, wait. No, that's definitely more playable than...

Ah, Vault Skirge, a card I've just added to my new cube! Vault Skirge versus Gingerbrute, FIGHT! Casting Cost: Vault Skirge is more expensive, whichever way you look at it, even though 2 life is not usually a big cost for aggro decks. You want to win before that 2 life matters. Still...

I don't think it's necessarily strong, but I don't think comparing it to Raging Goblin is right. Sure, it's a 1/1 with haste for 1 mana, but... 1) there is a real difference between a mana cost of {1} and a mana cost of {r}; 2) it is conditionally evasive, so in the mid to late game, when Raging...

I think CT is still the better site, currently, as it has had years of development time against CC's months. However, I don't see how a one man project on an outdated software stack is going to win out against an open source software project on an up to date software stack that already has...

I'm honestly expecting CubeCobra to come out on top eventually, seeing all the buzz on their Discord channel. You know what's coming up in their next update? Custom image URLs. You have to host them off site somewhere, but I am sure going to try out my cube on CC once that feature is released...

I think it's a good thing that there's playable CCC cards in standard. Dominaria's CCC rares did a lot of good to vary up the metagame. Harmonious Archon also buffs your opponent's creatures. It's a bucket load of stats, but not necessarily all on your side of the table. And yeah, that was...

Duh. Obviously a wordplay on Prince Charming as well. Couldn't be a more happy marriage of top down flavor, tongue in cheek reference, and MtG-specific slang :)

Oh man! These one drops are sweet! Legitimate aggro artifact one drops! I've got some nice interactions in (or lined up for) my cube, like... Corpse Knight D'Avenant Trapper Raid Bombardment Ranger of Eos Whirler Rogue Toolcraft Exemplar Master of Etherium Pia and Kiran Nalaar Steel Overseer...

I'm apprehensive about Outlaw's Merriment, precisely because of experiencing how brutal Assemble the Legion was. This comes down a turn sooner, and averages just over 2 power per turn (if the damage from the rogue goes to the dome). So, if we compare the total output of power: T5: OM 2 > ATL 0...

Squire !!!
