    General Embrace the Chaos / Cube Occasionals

    I'm gonna start by saying this was way too much text for my tiny monkey brain to read all of. I did, however, read this. The idea of being given some parts is something I've noticed lately. Well, I've kind of noticed the opposite... Glowspore Shaman Izoni, Thousand-Eyed Grisly Salvage Drown...

    General Companions, Yay or nay?

    Maybe they can add these into the next Commander product with proper text. I was hoping they'd do some sort of Errata Spellbook to re-release a lot of popular burn spells with the newer wording. Bothers me having stuff say something that it doesn't do.

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Did a couple drafts and left notes on the decks.

    Sets [M21] M21 Previews!

    BW lifegain really coming together. I might make a post in the life gain thread when this set's done, because that thread's way behind. If you're slow enough to run a dedicated cycling deck, I can see this being real. Alhammarret's Archive already covers this and then some for a mana more...

    General Life Gain as a Thing

    We don't even run Divination. That said, this thread could use some development from someone running some sort of life gain deck. I see a lack of several key cards even being mentioned. Maybe it's something now? Or close?

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Entirely depends on your design goals. I really liked how ED did it with just a bit more than average, I think. Gave it a bomby feeling without going overboard. If you want haymakers back and forth, maybe japahn's numbers are right. It's hard to say. I've personally felt very restricted in...

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Well, I'm really unsure of what the goal is here, but I'm pretty sure you need this Irencrag Feat I'll also note that the Eldrazi Domain cube was based off some very high CMC threats, but not a load of them. Having the bombs be colorless is pretty nice for universal access, but you may want to...

    General Fight Club

    I hate Druid. It's very unclear to anyone inexperienced with the game that the card is bonkers. I also don't want my yard decks dumping most of their decks in a couple turns, anyways. Even if you're looking for that higher powered option of Druid, I think a lot of people will go ahead and kill...

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    Reading your list of threats, I want to ask what you're after here. Lyra will blow out any slowed down aggro deck if it gets to a combat phase. Atarka totally ruins opposing boards when it hits. Ilharg will similarly end many games where it gets to attack once. Whelk, Deep-Fiend, and Golos...

    General Battlecruiser/dragon cube theory

    @ the question about PTR considering all cards, it's likely because the rares in the sets make up such a small percentage of a retail format. For a cube, I'd do the whole thing. Another thing is to include removal that is effective against your non dragons like Smother and Jaya's Greeting. You...

    General Fight Club

    Totally forgot about this card, as I'd opted out of split cards quite a while ago for this format. The additional text to read and questions about CMC (relevant here) for the casual players who often play with me seems like a bit much.

    General Fight Club

    Safewright Quest vs Elfhame Palace Wondering how you guys feel these stack up. Quest can grab a dual but isn't really a land, although it does play similarly to Ash Barrens. Then Elfhame can basically be any lower power GW land, as I'm considering Safewright as a land slot.

    General +1/+1 counters in 2020

    This is a little stupid, but I think it's really cute to proliferate your Vivid lands.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I like it if you have a GB sac deck. It's an under costed (unless you're at powermax) reanimation spell that makes you work for it. It can also act as a counter for a kill spell, which is a very green thing to be. It's an over costed blink, as well. Seems super flexible but needs a little set...

    General Tap/untap Archetype

    Inspire pairs well with vehicles to tap them without having to attack. Retraction Helix Gets better with the possibility to multi return. Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker Has anyone ever repeatedly untapped this before? Could be useful, I dunno. Twin not as good here because it's ineffective to...

    General Fight Club

    Of those four, I think I'm only running Healer. 2/2 for 2 is plenty respectable in my format and I suspect it is in yours, as well. I'm running quasi because flash is too strong in my format and I prefer to enable a faster second use that doesn't plus, but I'm low power. I think Onder was on...

    Card/Deck Wx Cycling

    My current WIP contains a blink deck around Astral SlideAstral DriftEscape Protocol instead of the typical enablers. They're also there to pseudo morph things. I've got all the green ramp stuff inscho listed. Worth noting that those green dudes are reanimation targets, as well. I'm looking...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Yep, and I've already got 'em. :) I think I've got a good density of falsely high CMC cards now. Been trimming cards from the list little by little. It's super bloated as is.

    General Fight Club

    Stitcher is fucking ridiculous as this kind of effect. This one isn't close for "mill me" effects. Now, if you wanted to compare faerie to another ninja enabler and say it can enable dredge as a plus, that might be a fight.
