    General Fight Club

    In what world is Reach an earlier pick than Spawning? SS's floor is fine and its ceiling is extraordinary. Reach takes 15 mana before it's a compelling play and doesn't even block fliers, which G has real trouble with! I'm happy splashing for either colour of Spawning, unlike the heavy green...

    If you like bite-sized stuff, Nate DiMeo's The Memory Palace is the best in the game.

    [Design/Discussion] The Spiral

    Okay, i think i get it now. I've been calling this 'gestalt synergy' in my blog thread for a little bit, selecting my strongest cards to be even stronger in archetypal decks (and trying to flatten the power band wherever possible). Notably though I'd consider a blink FTK deck to have gestalt...

    Card/Deck Start your Engines: A Temur Card Advantage Deck

    ZR feels not so much win-more as, like, durdle-more, imo. Try Zendikar's Roil in fetchland formats or Primeval Bounty anywhere for the safra seal of approval

    General The Draft Exchange

    As part of recording the Castle AI bot's picks for its corpus the site also records your packs and picks, too. But yes, it's a Champion feature, probably my second fave after getting to easily include my customs.

    4-P Grid Draft: Kirblinx/Dom vs Safra/Jason

    Ship it, crew - we're done here. Let's work out how we're trading between partnerships and come up with decks, eh? (column 2 but only because I don't need to worry about Dom taking Cruise)

    General Fighting Disappointment: Lets fix some cards that were almost sweet

    I don't think it's necessarily too strong to have 'target creature you control'. Sure, the card is good, but isn't that okay if we're trying to get people to play it?

    4-P Grid Draft: Kirblinx/Dom vs Safra/Jason

    Row 3, obviously.

    4-P Grid Draft: Kirblinx/Dom vs Safra/Jason

    Pack 14 is a great place to pivot into Mardu, right? Taking column 1.

    4-P Grid Draft: Kirblinx/Dom vs Safra/Jason

    Row 2 I guess? I already have a Lynx so passing on this one is probably okay given my fetch density. This is another one where I can't seem to get the code to post right but Dom you're on 13c2! Thanks for bearing with my handicap here.

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Savvy trader and Court Machinations are home runs imo, I might just proxy them! Way cool.

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    White brainstorm ideas from accidentally dreaming on it: Reveal top 2 cards of library, and either put them on the bottom of your library or exchange them for cards with the same CMC from your hand (these go to the top). W instant. Look at the bottom 3 cards of your library and exchange 2 of...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Yeah, you're supposed to hold up that card and use it in response to fetches or Pod activations. It's fringe here but the splash damage means I'll never cut it. It's also a two mana Griptide...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Top is good and cool and almost nobody plays it quickly enough. You don't need to play it optimally for it to be good (i often don't spin if I'm not actually looking for anything - those {1}s adds up quick!) and I think it's really critical if you want to enable Doomsday combo. I'd be sad to see...
