    General MTGO You Make The Cube

    From people who hang around on Reddit or wherever else cube is discussed, does anyone have any feel for how many entrants we might expect? I haven't really seen anything on a glance over at MTGSalvation but I could easily be looking in the wrong place.

    General Graveyard Cube Contest Entry

    Really pleased with how this one came out. First two picks were LED and Salvagers, but finding good ways to win with them was a bit of a puzzle. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/597658[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Lion's Eye Diamond 1 Mishra's Bauble Ones 1 Chromatic Star 1 Conjurer's Bauble 1 Dream Twist 1...

    Card/Deck Format defining crap removal

    You could just wait until you're ready to play Lab Maniac and draw from empty library all in one, and as all the removal is sorcery speed exiling stuff there's nothing your opponent can do?

    Another quick update. I think I need something to replace Precursor but I'm not sure what. Maybe another Heap Doll. E: actually I'd miscounted somewhere and was short a white card, Topplegeist is in.

    Alright I'm going to pick your post apart a bit to help organise my thoughts. These all seem pretty good, although I'm wary of repeatable removal especially if it doesn't tap whatever's using it, so Nezumi Graverobber might not be the best. I go back and forth on Roar. Is {3}{G} 6/6 even...

    That's all great, I'm going to go over it in detail tonight and make some swaps.

    General Great Games of Magic (Videos)

    Cedric and Patrick are great, I'd love to see them on the PT coverage team but I don't know if that's possible or not. I like LSV and Gaby Spartz as well, and I think LSV and Marshall would probably make a good team too as they're pretty great on LR. I think they usually team up with a third...

    General Graveyard Cube Contest Entry

    I want to keep the amount of anti-graveyard cards fairly low as if there's too much I think it will disincentivize people to make use of the graveyard. Right now, it probably is a bit too low, and stuff like Thraben Heretic and Crypt Creeper are things I've missed which should probably be...

    Card/Deck Super Ramp cards

    In a cube with lots of coloured mana symbols, maybe? Either heavily monocoloured or heavily multicoloured. It's not so impressive when your high end is Conflux or Griselbrand

    I don't know if it was someone from here or from the wider world but a person drafted my cube and left a very nice long comment. They pointed out in particular that Jace's Phantasm is a strange choice because it punishes people for filling their graveyards, which is counter to the point of the...

    I think you're right on Recurring Nightmare, and Tortured Existence kind of does the same thing without being so oppressive. I'll cut it when I update today.

    General Graveyard Cube Contest Entry

    Things I'm not sure about: Is Haakon good enough with only one Nameless Inversion to combo him with? Is he playable on his own? Are there enough creatures with varied abilities for Death-Mask Duplicant, Cairn Wanderer and Soulflayer? Is the lifegain theme playable, can you tell it's there from...

    The current version: http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/7045 I've been working on this over the last few days and I'm at a point where I could use some help. If you could take the time to draft the cube, post your deck and any thoughts - which cards seem too powerful, what seems out of place...

    Keldon Champion is good at triggering morbid. Hellrider, Hero, Ogre Battledriver and Shaman all reward you for scion/spawn shenanigans but imo Hero and Shaman are the most interesting because of Hero's interaction with defending spawns and Shaman's +1/+1 counter effect and activated ability.
