    Hathaway needs help (cutting down to 405)

    I think I'd like a 2/4 Deathtouch for 3, and I think he's way better than that. I don't even have any self mill and he's been great

    Card/Deck Swords to Plowshares too good for my cube?

    Honestly marauder is fine. It's an unconditional 3/2 that blocks as a 1/2 instead of Not at all The only reason I'm not running a bunch of it is because of +1/+1 counter shit

    Anytime man! :p Having everything justified is the mark of a good cube :p Don't forget that you can justify stuff by saying "Fuck it, I like it" too. Equipment at it's core isn't insanely necessary, but if gives aggro decks a way to compete in the lategame, and allows them to commit to the...

    General Two headed giant cube

    Rampant Growth Can affect the team: Like "target player", or "you and your teammates"? I think the latter should probably cost more than 2, and "Target player" has some interesting implications for stuff like Misdirection, which is already more interesting in multiplayer

    I know I'm kinda missing the point here but I really hope this contest ends up producing more actual cubes and less circle-jerky tickling JW's pickle joes

    Amazing what a single colorless does isn't it? Also really? Flash Elvish Visionary with a bit of mana is good enough? I don't want it cheaper, I want it to do more

    Notes: I forgot to mention this last time, but another one of the issues with Sylvok Lifestaff is that the sacrifice deck tends to be the beatdown in most matchups, so the lifegain will matter less and less the more inclined your opponent is to block instead of race. It's not wholly useless to...

    I disagree on wildfire. I think the turbo wildfire of Kai's Worlds is probably a bad thing for your cube, but as a red control card that synergizes with manarocks you already want, I think it fills a nice role. If it's something you want, here's a few key things: Azorius Signet is a...

    Well, two quick questions: 1) Are your control decks blocking at all? combat tricks seem poor if they're sideboard cards for the aggro/midrange mirror 2) Does the difference between Demon's Grasp in normal limited and Doom Blade in your average cube make tricks fundamentally awful?
