Another one I would love a discussion about: Nevinyrral's Disk Besides being very hard to spell, how much worse is this than Day of Judgment? (it should be, as it's colorless) Is it better or worse than a Day of Judgment for {5} would be? I thought it could help motivate people to draft mono...

These decks look fun! Seems like you guys had a good holyday!

I think I'll cut all cards I said I was okay cutting except Prosperous Innkeeper – that guy has just overperformed too often. The eight cuts will be replaced by the following. Avenger of Zendikar Zendikar's Roil Courser of Kruphix Three more landfall effects. Lair of the Hydra Crawling...

Rampaging Baloths A 6-drop with ramp will always feel underwhelming or at least not super high powered to me – but I also notoriously undererstimate landfall cards. Is it crazy to run Baloths at lower power? Would you say it is worse/better than Honored Hydra?

Another thought that recently plagued me was how my green section might be a little too divers. So, for each color there are 3-4 themes that usually can only be a deck's main idea if you add at least one other color. For example, for white that is: Blink (mostly {W/U}, sometimes {W/B}) Tokens...

I once had an idea how to potentially craft a cube that allows for more-like-constructed decks being drafted. The idea might be shit but I'll share it anyway, maybe you could build upon. It was about a smaller draft (2×15 or 3×10, you'd have to figure that out) from a singleton draft pool. And...

Happy holydays to all my riptiders. And may the upcoming year be like a super fun 3-0 draft for all of you.

Are there ways to bounce or blink the trinket? Then synthesizer all the way. If not it's closer and I'd lean towards the card that doesn't create a unique token.

https://cubecobra.com/cube/deck/1d087f5b-a485-431f-b36b-41519442b4d0 You think that deck would be good?

I think I might try Temporal Spring. It has that certain elegance of Apocalypse gold cards. Yeah, I think it will be very playable. It's almost Vindicate if you squint, right? Nothing that makes you force {G}{U} but a reward for being on that track. And I don't mind the Uproot mode. As a gold...

Yeah, that's awesome, I'm running two copies in my RAV block cube to give simic some interaction. But this is for my main cube where I don't have 0/0s running around :/ Plaxmanta is cool, but what I'd prefer would be something that interacts with opposing threats in some way.

What is your favorite {G}{U} interaction? I currently only have good ol' Mystic Snake. I also really like Dreamdew Entrancer, but I found out it was the best card in BLB limited, A+ with the same winrate as Sword of Fire and Ice, so I assume it has to be too strong for my cube. Aether...

It's nice with ... Saber Ants Which actually was in a very early iteration of my cube as lower powered Wildfire support :D

Oooh, I keep forgetting about Orcish Lumberjack. I really want to try him, now that I run occasionals. Now I have to reconsider. Living Twister is cool too, but not cool enough for me personally.

Oh, right, I would love (!) to run Rydia. So far I only have not because I run 0 sagas currently – there are some cool ones but surprisingly few that do something with multiple themes in my cube. I guess I would like to change that before I add her. Or I could proxy a version without the second...

What are some cool {R}{G} gold cards that could be fun in low/mid powered cubes? I currently have these three that I like: Stormbind Meria, Scholar of Antiquity Escape into the Wilds I am also on Goblin Anarchomancer and Territorial Kavu, but neither one does really spark joy. And since all my...

Is granting flying maybe also enough for you? Because this one had really overperformed for me (looting strong). Zephyr Boots

Often I ignore commander releases. Too wordy, too powerful, too niche. But this one had a real gem for me: Mistmeadow Vanisher What a hit. A splashable hybrid that actually fits the art style and vibe of Shadowmoor, a nice blink enabler that isn't parasitic at all because it is at least a...

Stop reading my mind

That reminds me of a question I've had for quite some time now: How can Maralen of the Mornsong be queen of the fae when she's an elf?
