#5) Make your cube over 50% black cards dread shade ayara, first of locthwain defile tendrils of corruption

The image worked yesterday. Vel probably took it down to keep the secret...

But I'll tell you

It's a MONO white Phyrexian Arena that costs an extra mana and can never draw you a nonland card. It might as well cost like 1WWW to get maximum effect. It's NOT an aggro curve topper, which is what you asked about. You don't really want the game to still be going on turn 8-10, after this has...

ETB, make no impact on the game. After your fourth upkeep, you've earned an unplayable Shard Convergence that only works in mono white. Gonna be a a lot better off playing a threat than that. A 4/4 or something is gonna get a lot more mileage than making your draws 40% better in exchange for...

A thread would naturally transition from speculation to official spoilers to "I'm including this" as time went on. I don't see the issue with one. I do, however, see the issue of me not even knowing there was another thread and I guess I posted in the wrong one? I put it in spoilers because I...

I didn't even realize there was another thread. Gets confusing when there's 3 threads for every set. The cards are pretty sus, but, who knows.

Conversely, if you're not giving them ETB triggers, you're tempoing up to 15 mana on curve.

1. Ramping into a 7 seems totally viable, but, you're right, it needs to be a good one. I'd try to make any kicked removal spell able to kill the 7s when possible. KIlling a 7 for 2-3 mana is a beating. ETBs, death triggers, and protection to ensure value will be important here. 2. Do it if...

1. Fair within the rules. I can't imagine wanting TOO many X spells, anyways. 2. Might as well. 3. If they look like they make sense to run, do it. Agree with whydirt that shifting card evaluations is fun. The Black Cube is full of that kind of thing. 4. As unfun as usual, I guess? Also, RR is...

It's gonna be hard to make it come together at 700, but maybe Wort is fine just taking legitimate goblins back.

9?

Love weird designs. You could overwrite the CMCs on CC for kicker, etc, to get a better idea of the real curve and later export as text and reupload to get it back to all 237. Is there a reason someone made it 237 and not 146 or something else?

TFW your entire cube is a sign you should be in black. That said, I've been doing this for a while. Not particularly intentionally, but I relaxed on removal power band a bit. Like you said, the "worse" removal tends to get an added benefit of some sort to balance it out. Also, one removal...

Holy shit. I totally thought I clicked into CBS lol.

What removal write up? I don't see anything in this thread like that.

When I look at nonblack cards, that one always appeals to me. So does Urban Evolution. Both seem like a cool way to reload and continue ramping at the same time. That said, I've played neither.

Yeah. Lorwyn and Onslaught were thematically really nice.
