Ruric Thar, the Unbowed So, I've been running this card for a long, long time, and it's good! Is it fun though?

Yeah, it's funny how often you can use either the Inspector itself, or the clue as fodder for something else. I've gone games where I got three clues out of the little fellow, and cracked only one of them for a card, because I had a better use for the clues as they happen to be artifacts :)...

Ok, took another stab at Pete's cube! Didn't pick up any mana fixing, which is why I left some double blue cards in the sideboard, but the deck looks pretty sweet to play nonetheless. Basically it's draw, discard for value until you find your Living Death. Hopefully by then, you've got a stocked...

Ok, tested pretty extensively, and made a pretty substantial overhaul incorporating a lot of your feedback. Took a good hard look at themes and generally strong cards. Still not sure I've got everything, but I've played some pretty sweet games already! {b/w} sacrifice is in a better place now...

Seconded! Thraben Inspector is a super fun card, and it's much better than its 1/2 statline would indicate!

Oops. They printed a pro tour worthy 4-off buy a box promo :') Nexus of Fate You knew this would happen eventually anotak, right? :D

I play it in my cube, but I've never seen it come down on turn 3. The lack of trample makes it fair, and it's a nice recursive threat in dedicated decks.

Yeah, it's pretty good :) I do like how it plays so far though. Turns out a 5 mana wrath is well, a 5 mana wrath, and a 5 mana zombify is pretty underpowered. They do combine very well to make a spell that's almost always desirable.

Oof, that's really powerful! I'm now testing {3}{b}{b}, choose one: day of judgment Zombify

Only three creatures.

I think it is. Sun's Champion was extremely strong in my environment, I cut her after maybe two drafts.

I run Crux of Fate at the moment, and there simply isn't any other black 5 cmc wrath effect that unconditionally destroys every creature with a small bonus. I don't run any 4 cmc wraths on purpose, so Damnation is out, and the 6 cmc options aren't really enticing plus a bit too slow. Really...

I'm annoyed at the lack of 5 cmc black wrath effects :(

I just won a game with Even Warlock against Spell Hunter at 2 life because I decided to use Drain Soul on my own Twilight Drake. Correctly played around their secrets as well. What a super satisfying game!

Hah, I actually cut Rishkar because it was too explosive. Definitely more dangerous than Primeval Titan in my opinion :)

Great stuff, I'm going to mull over these a bit. I run no nonbasic lands other than mana fixing, so Primeval Titan has actually been okay in my experience. I've been struggling with green p1p1 cards, and the Titan has certainly provided one, without being too overbearing. The ramp (or rather...

Either that, or one random deck is really quite a bit more powerful than another random deck, resulting in uneven gameplay.

I'ld advocate removing basic landcycling from this (unless you like it) :)

Yeah, I'm curious and apprehensive at the same time. Looks like it would be perfect for something online, but rather... hit or miss for offline play. Can you combine decks, switch out cards, etc., if you buy multiple decks?

Looks... Weird? How's that supposed to work in offline? I imagine setting up a tournament scene is right out of the question, since you can't copy decklists?
