    One Pack One Pick (p1p1 thread)

    I think in that pack I'm on pocket the temple garden and run out of the store :P Oh expeditions. I love that you're the default art now I keed I keed. Yeah I think I'm on metamorph too. There's good cards there, but even in the deck they're designed for, metamorph is probably better. Like I...

    General Draft Strategy

    For those who don't know 10 year old draft Advice, BREAD is thus: Bombs Removal Evasion Aggro Dud It's not a bad little acrostic, but as you'll notice it's a bit old. Recent sets have played around with just how bad removal can get before we'll stop first picking it, (See Rite of the...

    General Draft Strategy

    P1P1 is the least important (Well, almost) pick of the draft, so the forum game (While fun, and a great way to get people exposure) isn't really much help in learning draft :p I mean, if drafting is about being in the right colors/deck so you get all the cards while everyone else has to fight...

    General Draft Strategy

    May I heartily recommend the limited resources podcast! :D Great guys, a lot of really great knowledge there, but here's lessons from old uncle Chris: -There's (99% of the time) no card powerful enough that it makes your deck better than being in the right colors will (Ie: Grave Titan is...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I tried him and he was sadly just really awkward. Perhaps my playgroup just doesn't want to read what haunt does, or maybe the ammount of setup for the full -2/-2 on your opponent was too steep (Sac outlet, spare creature, pontiff, mana for above) but he never made a maindeck.

    Ink-Treader Cube (312)

    Ponder: Actually, given prowess Opt might actually be a sweet one. Not sure you intended that comparison, I'm not sure you meant it in that sentence as a card name :p Stormblood Berserker: If this guy ends up being too good, swap a copy for Gore-House Chainwalker or War-Name Aspirant, other...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Hmmm. It's certainly a unique effect, I'll give you that. I don't suppose this fellow fits the bill? Ascendant Evincar Or maybe this, if you want it on a smaller scale? Minister of Pain I'm not sure the permanence, cheap cost and noncreature body of engineered plague is something you can...

    What's the end goal with this? Like, do you just want a cheaper Curse of Death's Hold?

    That's because despite knowing that article was intended as such, I couldn't get more than ten sentences down before I saw my fucking optic nerve my eyes rolled back in my head so hard

    Good joke sir, this is about equipment, not draw engine/sac outlets :P

    The Riptidening—Building my Cube from scratch

    On the other hand, in FSR's cube most of the themes are spread more or less evenly around the colors from what I can tell (Haven't drafted it myself) so perhaps he's the one to talk to? Assuming you want to keep this direction I mean

    General Fight Club

    Sword of the Animist? o.O Sigil of Distinction is interesting. I don't love that it's so soft to removal (I think we've learned from cards like Magmaquake that the difference between CCX and CX is huge, so removing 2 charge counters makes the equipment quite a lot worse) but hey, I have...

    Maybe we want to open this up to "Equipment that isn't Jitte/Swords/Batterskull that doesn't suck" Here, I'll start: Bonesplitter Grafted Wargear End of list? FWIW I'm not sure any of the cards you've listed are ones I'd play

    For reference, killing a goldfish updates more often than when people on here post about it: http://blog.killgoldfish.com/2015/09/a-reasonable-discussion-of-possibility.html I love every bit of this article, not just because the comments section is so delightfully salty, but because it puts so...

    Sets Battle for Zendikar Spoilers

    After my prerelease, I really wish Wasteland Strangler worked in my cube. I always forgot how insane FTK was for having a passable on curve body, unlike nekkrataal or bone shredder (Shriekmaw less so)
