    I realized I'm so hype for Amonkahet: Sekhmet by Sandara Tang Also, I had to make sure I told you all about the best named image I've seen: This is "yo bro is it safe down there in the woods? yeah man it's cool" by Tomislav Jagnjic Yes really.

    I will say I'm a lot less excited when I noticed he could accidentally be pumping your opponent's creatures. I think he's probably be fine if he just had elesh norn's wording

    Dumb idea: What if all the removal is like chastise? :D

    There's so many good pieces in this series. I personally love the drowned one, and I've been trying to get it on some card in my cube for a while now :D

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Actually given the lack of combo demonic tutor is downright fair in my list :P It's like bad impulse

    It's planar chaos, so whatever happened to her happened to him :p Mirri the Cursed took his origional place in the story IIRC

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Well Hermit is in the next post responding to grillo so consider it an honarary mention :P I totally agree (in theory). Spending lots of cards to ramp out a huge creature only to have it EoT pathed is a shit feeling, but I've usually tried to shore up that weakness in ways that aren't "Well I...

    One of the things I like about crovax in the higher powered enviornments is that he turns all your opponent's doom blades into souped up vapor snags since he can bounce himself so easily. It's a bit conditional on the white player having a few life to spare, so it might not be the most...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    A lot of your assumptions hinge on green having a sort of token theme present, which I've never really convincingly been able to pull off. While green does have some solid payoffs in Overrun and friends, the actual multi-body creatures are leagues behind similar white cards, with basically only...

    Though on the other hand we never really considered elesh norn a white weenie card and she did just fine. Maybe if the anthemn isn't really the selling point?

    Also flavor wise, I'm thinking corrupt cop, but I probably can't name a card "Corrupt Official"

    I always felt it was weird he didn't have flying :P I like that he protects himself in a really fair way. Has anyone tried it?

    Alright one more: L.O.R.D - Eagle by Xiaodi Jin Dude woah Also someone tell me if I should be spoilering these or shrinking them somehow, my monitor is pretty can handle most of these fine but I imagine that might not be true for everyone.

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    It's such a cool card, but it's not actually that great :p It tends to play a little closer to Sleight of Hand than Brainstorm, power level wise, which I felt a little disappointed by. It's also got enough text on there that I can't really try and change it to power it up without making it...

    So not everyone around here uses ranom art on the internet for cards, but I figure all of you can appreciate some of the cool ass stuff I find :D Here's some bomb ass shit: "Beneath" by Abrar Khan Reminds me of Dandân, but this is probably close enough to magic's current art style to not...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    As much as I understand that aggro has been overrepresented, It's been my cube mission statement to oversupport aggro :) I find the aggro mirror really interesting to play, much moreso than the control or midrange mirror, and I've been an aggro player all my life (in more than just magic. I'm...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    This is actually the base problem at hand: I've spent so long cutting things from my cube that I'm not really sure what G/x is supposed to be doing. Ideally, I'd love each color pair to have 1-2 options available that aren't Control, Aggro, or Midrange. Green aggro might be rare enough to...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    So I've got the beginnings of an idea here: Probably a Black/White card? "At the beginning of your end step, investigate Whenever an artifact you control dies, each opponent loses N Life" There's a lot of ways you could take this. Maybe N is 3, and it's designed to be a powerful finisher on...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Alright let's put this longform esoteric rambling in my cube thread because it's related to a problem I'd been having: Are Green's Cards worth a card? That's probably more confusing than inflammatory like I intended. So, there's a lot of cards we just don't add to our cubes; things we've...
