    Shrinking a cube that gets this many reps is bad for business, it needs variance.

    Needs to be on cast. What if you don't draw it?

    I had Amrou Scout sharpied to say Human, and it was decent, but it was the only effect of it's kind in the cube Andy went one step further, adding the rebel text to various random white creatures, and a few tricky ones, like Oblivion Ring, AEther Adept, and Kor Skyfisher IIRC he's since dialed...

    The Riptidening—Building my Cube from scratch

    Eh, not all themes need to be whole draft archetypes. You can have tokens and anthems without the ability to draft a deck made of nothing but tokens, anthems and removal. As you mention Kirb, Mill as a control finisher probably is comprised of like, 5 cards max. (I hear Ashiok is pretty sweet as...

    Card/Deck What human tribal incentives do you run?

    Being able to choose doesn't make it not an aweful topdeck when you're losing :(

    Sets Battle for Zendikar Spoilers

    Here's the best I could find: Not much, a lot of these are super reliant on the ally thing. There's also who pitches to force, but I doubt the ACS of literal grizzly bears is good enough. Blademaster at least holds the fort really well

    My point is that in standard, it works because either A) you can run other allies, since there's even an elite vanguard. That's not usually a tribal piece we get, or B) you can treat it as a one time ETB guy In retail draft it makes sense because there's plenty of random allies In cube, I get...

    I had this in my cube for an update or two. It's good, possibly too good, and there's lots of nice little things about it (It's arc lightning with goblin bombardment in play, does a great job just blocking, reach is relavant, etc) One small point though, in order to MTG-ify it a bit, I had it...

    Interesting article. I think a lot of people are putting a lot more weight on some things that there ought to be: PV is down on devoid because it's basically flavor text to him and that there's not many cards that interact with things being colorless. To which I would rebut: that's the point...

    General Does It Takes Two to Tango?

    Huh, I wonder Customs I frequently double up on for testing purposes/for lack of other ideas (Seriously I've designed about 1.75 good blue 1 drops in my life, but my cube wants about 8, so there's gonna be some repeating), but in terms of real cards: Seeker of the Way: Adding white to the...

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

    Some Ideas I've been bouncing around: Mother of Runes can be miserable to play against. Maybe this is a good way to keep the spirit of the card in an enviornment? I think this is what I wanted Horribly Awry to be, assuming I can't just sharpie out "Noncreature" (which would be insane)...
