    General Unstable Spoiler Unthread

    So what (if any) cards from Unstable are people looking at? I have my eye on a few: Amateur Auteur - An upgrade to Ronom Unicorn and Ancient Kami in most cubes due to the creature type. Shadows over Innistrad is my preference for the version. Jackknight - I don't currently support the artifact...

    Card/Deck The Orzhov Syndicate (WB)

    I do remember him saying that he cut it but I can't quite remember why. In any case, BFZ block might have given it a small boost, and I know Jason's cube is a high power level so it might be more effective in a lower powered environment.

    Lifegain and specifically repeatable small lifegain triggers are everywhere in BW: Soul Warden Soul's Attendant Auriok Champion Mardu Woe-Reaper Student of Ojutai Orzhov Guildmage Blood Artist Zulaport Cutthroat Blind Hunter Drana's Emissary And anything with Extort. The trouble I have is...

    You could try Drifter il-dal My suspicion is that the upkeep cost means it's not going to be any good in that archetype on turn 1, but it is still relevant later in the game so it might do the trick.

    A card that encourages you to try and make your opponent laugh? Sounds like dour serious time for me.

    I had Urza in a draft today, I -6'd him once and got Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker's ultimate. He went straight in the cube after that.

    How close is Subcontract to playable do you think?

    At the moment I have a mixture of all different styles so each drafter can take the one they like, but then someone will take the ones I like before I get a chance and I have to cancel the draft and go home. I'd like to avoid that situation which is why I think I might get uniform basics.

    Why is one of the arts different on Very Cryptic Command?

    That's why Unstable has those double-faced tokens Wait I misread I thought you said token creature. Oops!

    The solution is clearly to have all of them and include a different random one each time Or transform it if it's a double-faced card!

    Top tier forest and I use Mirage plains in legacy D&T. I rate your basics choice a solid 4/5 (losing a point because you don't have any islands apparently)

    Just for fun I was working out how much it would be to get all Gurus, and assuming you'd want 30 of each it'd be a mere $20,000.00

    General Basic Lands

    If you watched the Top 8 of the WMC, you will have seen that all the players were given Unstable basic lands to play with as a way to promote the new set, and they look super cool. I currently have a hodgepodge mix of basics but I'm seriously considering upgrading them all to Unstable once the...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Equipment

    I've been running the Swords for a while with the protection errata'd off, and whilst they have gone down a bit in terms of desirability they're still very good cards. It just means you have to work a little bit to get the full benefit out of them. A curve of 2 drop, 3 drop, 4 drop, sword +...

    I cut Bloodline Keeper because he's pretty slow, although unopposed he'll take over a board by himself. If your cube is a bit lower power level he can be a legitimatebomb, as he was in Innistrad draft.
