    Blue Gearhulk is very, very good. I love this cycle.

    I thought about which changes I could make to support it and cut it for another mana rock instead.

    Scepter is a trap, thanks for confirming it. I'll work on fixing the environment so it's better supported.

    Some selected decks from Cubetutor: AGGRO: CONTROL: COMBO: This is starting to look a lot more promising, I think. I'm not there yet but it's coming together. I'm actually happiest with the Swans deck so far, it feels strong.

    Snap is in, Toshi's out. He's a pet card I forgot to cut when I rejected the ritual package. This is good, and appreciated, thanks! Don't sweat the tone. I've been worried about balancing draw-7s with the rest of the cube; they're quite powerful. Future Sight + Top may be excessively cute, but...

    Great points. I think the bouncelands are being picked pretty highly by most decks and so 30 may indeed not be enough. I'll try 40 I guess and see what that does - I think there's a soft limit to how many a midrange deck wants to play though before it gets too slow to curve out. I'll probably...

    Quirion Ranger's a great idea, going in ASAP. Candelabra I think is a little too strong for the level of artifact/enchantment removal in the environment (which I'm still fine-tuning). That's why I'm running the Magus instead. Also in! Love the deck.

    The central conceit of this cube is to take the Penny Pincher cube's bounceland-fueled storm engine, splicer midrange package, and land-based combo theme and raise the power level. http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/63360 http://www.cubetutor.com/draft/63360

    sea drake used to be good but now isn't because stompy decks aren't reliant on 'mox sapphire, ancient tomb, sea drake go' (because you can't target two lands, the effect fizzles) I really wouldn't cube it, the drawback is VERY bad

    It's great but not overwhelming; include it post-haste.

    Not in the competitive scene, anyway. You'd be amazed at the variety of cool, fun people I've cubed with who're strictly casual players. Yet another reason the dominance of the tournament scene in MTG discussion stifles a lot of interesting stuff.

    I agree - you need a straight man to LSV's constant stream of jokes but Stark barely seems to notice them. BDM is a little the same way but he's said that he's refusing the give LSV the satisfaction of a response, which plays a little better in video than it does in audio. Stark is a one-note...

    A fun way to make Show and Tell safer is to run lots of planeswalkers as your high end b/c it can't cheat them in.

    I drafted the KYOOB and first-picked Griselbrand, as is my wont. Turn 3 Grave Titan off the Monolith also feels like a strong play. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/594713[/url]"] Ones 1 Brainstorm 1 Cryptbreaker 1 Enclave Cryptologist 1 Reanimate 1 Vampiric Tutor Twos 1 Animate Dead 1 Arc Trail 1...

    I'm a storm dork and I also don't see it. Ahadabans and I agree again! Must be a full moon e: duress, sapphire medallion/nightscape familiar, archaeomancer, peregrine drake, duress, ghostly flicker is a turn 4 protected storm engine (that requires 4-6 cards in hand by turn 4 since you've...

    What? No. No, no no, dude. No. How long did you spend trapped in a fetish art hole that you thought this was SFW? Or okay? Some alternatives: http://imgur.com/a/EKiLx
