    Jesse's Proliferate/Devotion/Miracles cube

    No, you're absolutely right, Top is kinda miserable and wastes a whole pile of everyone's time (because other people now have to wait for this one absurdly long game to finish). It does help the Miracles deck a lot, though.. so there's that. Crystal Ball? See Beyond to shuffle your uncastable...

    General Three-color cards worth running

    I remember in full block Alara draft, there was this urban legend of people who would go into Jund colours for the first two packs and hope to open one of these back boys in the third pack. Hey, LSV said he saw it, so it must've been real.

    Card/Deck Artifact/Enchantment destruction

    I think you guys are really underestimating the potential of a Disenchant land. There was a brief period of time that Mystifying Maze was Standard-playable, and that card tied up five of your mana each turn to take out a single attacker. The versatility of a land / spell split card more than...

    Jesse's Proliferate/Devotion/Miracles cube

    Hey Jesse, welcome back! I remember you as one of the very early members of this forum, back when we barely had any activity. Glad you've stuck with us for so long! I gave your list a look, and I like what you're doing with the doubling and tripling up on your anchor cards to solidify your...

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    Possibly altogether too complicated utility land draft idea, inspired by Jason's tier list, that I thought of while washing dishes (Jason insists on knowing when and where I come up with all my ideas): Separate all the utility lands into two tiers. When it's someone's turn to pick, they can...

    General Common/Uncommon Playsets

    I love how many 'formats' Conflux is featured in. Hey buddy, have I got a mediocre pile of domain cards for you!

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Not true! Now that it's at the forefront of my mind, thanks to the discussion on this thread, I'm reconsidering whether Ashiok could be playable in my cube. I'm usually interested in hearing people's arguments for or against the inclusion of specific cube cards, especially when the cards are a...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I remember first Sarkhan Vol, then later Elspeth, Knight-Errant, hitting $30 a pop back in 2008 being a Very Big Deal.

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    You know, double Silverblade Paladin is one of the better ideas I've heard in a long time. He'll go well with the fourth Champion that I just replaced Tiramisu with!

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Are the Squadron Hawks any good? I'm not even sure which deck wants them anymore, now that all the Swords have been excised. Back then, you could build a reasonable facsimile of UW Caw-Blade, and the birds were nice warm bodies to have around to pick up the equipment. Now... not so much. I've...

    Wait, only blue? What about the rest of the colours...? Oh right. BUFF CONTROL!

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    I have no idea what to do with white aggro. It's boring as heck right now, and jamming in more efficient small creatures doesn't seem to do much to change the texture one way or another. Sigh. Should I push all-in on humans? Does that create an interesting dynamic, or does it just cause people...

    Yeah, was just about to echo Chris's thought that this siren seems strictly worse than Air Elemental.

    Card/Deck Cheap non-creature ramp

    Yeah the walls are a little dicey. I just remember going Overgrown Battlement, Overgrown Battlement, Overgrown Battlement => Ulamog in Standard a few years ago, which was always a little sketchy, but fun when it came together. Probably not a thing I should try to recreate in cube, though...
