I think there'd have to be some reasonable restrictions on picking teammates. Like, each team member has to have 2 pro points on the season so far, so captains aren't just picking their three best buddies from their LGS. The author furthers his argument with some good points in today's...

I think the article series as a whole is great. Like Jason pointed out, a lot of his initial assumptions are anywhere from slightly askew to way off the mark. But in today's article, he still makes a lot of strong arguments for how the entire program could be restructured to maximize viewing...

I need to get on this decklist tags thing. Those spoiler tags are hideous :(

Vibe's thoughts on Shadowborn Demon: http://riptidelab.com/m14-shadowborn-demon/

Those are FANTASTIC suggestions, Vince. You're just a fountain of good ideas today!

#2 is ready: I personally feel that cubes need more camels. I personally feel that cubes need more camels.

For a Magic forum, decklists are definitely a must-have at some point, and I agree that card tags alone aren't enough.

This is great feedback, Dom. For the last question, I'm not sure if you mean something other than just quoting someone's whole post, which is something this forum software supports but unfortunately hides behind the not-very-descriptive "Reply" button. Changing it to "Quote".

#2's a great idea! I'll add it to my to-do list. I've wanted something similar for a while - sometimes I just want to type Jace, and have it link to the correct version of the walker, rather than having it pick one for me. #1's possible as well, though from what I've gathered, it's a little...

Dark Tutelage? Maybe Graveborn Muse over Greed?

You got most of the common ones. Relic of Progenitus is a bit boring, but has good utility. Gaea's Blessing, or Primal Command? Was gonna suggest Stonecloaker before I forgot you don't run white!

But but but.. BG Zombies at the beginning of season no Sign in Blood! And c'mon, Vampires was a weird deck. Only Goth kids and Twilight fanfiction junkies played that. You know, now that I think about it, Staggershock is mostly just a slower Pyroclasm. So why does it feel that much more...

Miasmir, out of curiosity, do you write professionally? I ask that with complete seriousness. Because goddamn, brother, that was one hell of an intro. I chuckled loudly enough at this that the wife assumed I was watching puppy Youtubes again. You know what, now I've talked myself into going...

The old cards look new, and the new cards look old!

Here's the part where I bug all of our new members to drop by, make themselves comfortable, and say hello. I'd love to know how you all got into cubing, how you ended up here, and what you're doing with your cube. In particular, if you're not shy, let everyone know what city you're from. Both...

I've got five of those in a 405 card cube. They're Modern-bordered, even! I'll bet it was the Mirage Stone Rain that threw him off. Or Finkel. Doesn't staring at Finkel throw everyone off?

It's this red/black aggro deck, which took down the draft last time we had one: http://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/decks-that-have-3-0d-your-cube.47/page-2#post-1074 On a completely unrelated note, I was amused at how my group's supposedly most experienced player, himself the owner of a...

In the deck I linked above, though, I wouldn't cut any of the creatures or spells for a draw two. The entire deck is on Plan A, which is Crack Skulls. I guess that's where we fall on different sides on the divide. What would you remove for the Night's Whisper? In fairness, I suppose I might...

Denyx (sp?) was there, too, and he drafted a really sweet black/white deck with a lot of synergy. Reveillark for Nekrataal, don't mind if I do. Brian was the one with the blue/white tempo deck, and unfortunately, it's been lost to the wind (read: I shuffled that whole mess in... whoops). From...

Glad you enjoyed it! I think your analysis of red decks, and aggressive decks in general, is on the money. Against the slower, durdly midrange decks, your best bet is often to go under them, by playing enough cheap threats to keep them on the back foot all game. I find that having an ultra-low...
