    If you've only got a small number it doesn't play like poker, it plays like echo Specicially echo where it's more vulnerable initially

    General Build Arounds - new angles to your draft

    I might add back in wildfire again. Sometimes it feels real unfair, but I like that it adds. Asically a whole new deck to a cube for all of 2 slots. for anyone looking, I wrote an article about this a few years back: https://riptidelab.com/wildfire-primer/

    Synergy wise no, but there's always the possibility a card or two could be self contained: think exalted angel or scion of vitu ghazi

    Good catch! It used to be based off North American Thunderbirds.

    Could do. Is this the kind of effect a 1 drop should have? It was originally a 4 drop and I didn't change the wording. At the moment it keys off each instance of counters being put on, so decree of savagery is 1 card, but 2 creatures are a card each. Maybe it should just draw one card at eot...

    Throwing ideas at the wall: Basically the +1/+1 counter theme is in Bant in my cube and the density of blue effects is WAY too low. oh the joys of searching for blue cards that counter no wait not that kind :P Shiting benthid probably has way too many words on it, but I think the end result...

    I found scriptures absurdly powerful. Even delayed, duneblast is a house at 4 mana. I just put an artifact theme in and passed on it :P

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Now two drafts in with the artifacts theme, and its been incredibly well recieved. However there are still problems :p Retrofitter Foundry I love this card, it really scratches the same itch birthing pod did with this cute little minigame, and it's a mana sink which we all love. But why god...

    Dominance on cheap cards is a cool idea because having the only creature in play is a decent possibility, but also your opponent might just have a savannah lions to your llanowar elves. Plus I've got a soft spot for cheap cards like this that create fewer nongames. Speaking of ways to create...

    And now, to interrupt your regularly scheduled programming: Glacia This set was likely a bit too powerful on the numbers side, but there's some interesting ideas here: Fabled is basically Kicker: Transform, but it works surprisingly well. Spells -> Enchantments leads to some cool narrative...

    Sets [M20] Core Set 2020

    Bouncing 4 of your own permanents is a big ask though. I think if I want a 6 mana sweeper like this, considering it's implications as a ramp spell, especially in a format as fast as mine, probably not actually going to move the needle at all :P And yeah upheval is too much :P

    Thinking more about flood of tears, mini fight club: vs Rivers Rebuke vs Cyclonic Rift I was initially excited for flood, but I've never really been happier with the other two, and making it weaker doesn't really fix that.
