Do you enjoy the general play style of Gruul though? Not saying this is the case, but I've seen more cube designers call Gruul boring or mediocre, when in fact there are plenty of people who happen to love Gruul. Some potential "fun" (depending on who you ask, I feel most these would be too...

Ok, did a real (Silent Auction) draft yesterday, and some of the WAR adds saw play. Law-Rune Enforcer Verdict: Great addition. More interesting than Gideon's Lawkeeper for the expected reasons. 1) It doesn't hit everything. 2) It has an additional toughness. 3) It activates for colorless mana...

I hosted a four person Silent Auction draft today, and won the finals by casting a Saheeli's Artistry on my Marionette Master and one of my three etherium cells :D Edit: That whole game was a beauty. t4 Phyrexian Scriptures to set up the t5 Tezzeret the Schemer, creating an etherium cell, into...

I am at home and can take a picture for you ;) Boss art by the way. As far as reminder text goes, you still need to know what a Signet does, which is kinda not what Chris was looking for. Maybe... "Trade this for a Signet of your choice. (Each Signet costs {2} and has: "{1}, {T}: Add two...

I have ran it in the past. It's pretty slow, but cool when it works. Just feels a bit lame if they don't have a good target out, because a 4/5 flyer for seven mana isn't exactly a good deal. On the other hand, a 6/7 flyer for seven feels like something green shouldn't be able to do, so in the...

I started running a storm package, with the pay offs being: Crow Storm Empty the Warrens Hunting Pack Sentinel Tower These two customs are there for support: You already mentioned Goblin Electromancer, but one other option in that vein is: Baral, Chief of compliance If you get to run the...

Well, that one obviously is my second five drop in red already, what with me having a dinosaur sub theme in RG :p

Note that the new Ashiok also work really well in a self-mill deck. While it always exiles your opponent's graveyard, it actually mills any target. Laboratory Maniac fans rejoice! ;)

It only mills 20, I don't see how that equates to winning on its own? I think new Ashiok is pretty sweet as part of a mill package that doesn't run the risk of handing your opponent all kinds of goodies through graveyard recursion on their part. I know I'm not alone in this sentiment in my...

I currently run Demanding Dragon, which is serviceable but a) not all that interesting, and b) can be a bit overbearing sometimes. My other five drop of choice in red is Neheb, the Eternal, which is way more exiting to me. I run two Wildfires though, so I picked those drops because hey could...

Crimson Honor Guard?

Sigh... Back when she wasn't driven batshit insane by all-consuming anger.

Well, that's my point. I don't know how experienced my opponent is, exactly, but I've seen him at various prereleases for a few years now, and he plays well enough. As for me though, I'm a tcg fan, playing other games like Hearthstone and Eternal, besides Magic. I've been a rules advisor (when...

I always liked... Sunblast Angel Even though I don't cube with it anymore. It was great when someone got in under their Mimic Vat that one time though :) Nowadays I actually run one of the already suggested cards: Sentinel of the Eternal Watch This is a great card for control decks...

Same here, except I run two Bloodsoaked Champions :)

My example happened at the local prerelease. Where both players where paying attention, and both players missed not one, but two! static planeswalkers abilities.

Truth, Ihad this at the prerelease, where we both realized we fucked up the game state because I cast a Band Together eot that I couldn't actually pay for thanks to Dovin, Hand of Control. I then cast it on my turn, only to have my opponent realize, as he was moving his creature to his graveyard...

I just traded for one (in a bulk trade, it's worth a pittance so why not), because it looked interesting. Then I started second-guessing myself, because reusing this to keep denying your opponent an untap, upkeep and draw step seems utterly unfun. And finally you post this. Poor Clocknapper, I...

Yup, still disagree. But I don't think these two camps are going to see eye to eye on this issue. Again, Commander's not badly designed, it caters, on purpose, to multiple play styles. Yes, you could design CommanderA (for competitive people), CommanderB (for people who want to have a fun...
