    General Non Blue Control in Cube

    A few of my buddies play with pre-m10 rules (damage on the stack, mana burn, etc) All my non-custom cards use oracle text, FWIW. Sylvan Library in my cube is still sylvan library, but I do wish I didn't have to spend 45 seconds telling people what a card printed in english does

    General Jitte and assorted GRBS, P1P1, etc.

    Funny that I cut golem for not being that great :P

    That's all well and good, but I don't think it's play 3 colors good

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    You know, now that I think about it, most cube articles do really focus on "here's a design principle, lets talk about how to build a cube where you aren't ignoring it", even if the "design principle" is something vastly simplified like "Black aggro sucks" Maybe we need more of that?

    Preach. I was really hoping for the oppisite of holy strength bestow guy, but maybe that's hoping too high

    General Squadron Build-Arounds

    I think it relies on cards which as a single card are not worth the pick, but a playset brings them over that edge. It does seem like a short list though

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    if you're going to add it, add 4. Blue has no other 1 drops. From there, high toughness dudes are pretty key. Frostburn Weird, Seacoast Drake etc hopefully all the 4 toughness 3 drops you can get your hands on (my fav: Calcite Snapper)

    General Non Blue Control in Cube

    I've doubled up on sylvan library and it was so sweet! (Other than explaining to people what sylvan library does) I kinda just wanna give it cube errata thats says: Instead of your draw step: Brainstorm. I'm pretty sure that kinda selection would help people like green control. What about...

    General What websites do you use to order cards from?

    I never really got TCGplayer to work for me, it was always ordering 30 different cards from 25 different retailers, so I was paying shipping a million times over and it ended up being triple the overhead to try and make it work.

    General Fighting Disappointment: Lets fix some cards that were almost sweet

    So bounce or discard and +1/+1 counter? Weird modes man. If he's a 3/3 flying, can we skip the counter and just make his modes either half of recoil? Also Woo! World of Warcraft! (I'm currently playing again)

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

    I just figure while grey ogre is super embarassing, balduvian barbarians is a little less embarassing. I dunno, maybe with all the 2/1 1 drops in cube he'd be better as riot devils? Also yes, I know all the cards I just linked were red and the card we're discussing is green/white, but those...

    General Inspiration: Environment and Card Design Ideas

    It also doesn't help that BNG recycles quite a few of the mechanics from theros, so we're not really having the "Oh man what could be done with mechanic X" rush that normally comes with preview season. Inspired is without sarcasm or hyperbole a joke among magic players ("Yeah, but you have to...

    General Inspiration: Environment and Card Design Ideas

    Well kinda. Different holes I guess (Dirty!) I'm more like "I need a blue 2 drop that supports spells matter" or like "I need a white removal spell that isn't op and costs 1", and less like "Man dredge was awesome. Moar dredge cards!" Narrower I guess.

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

    it can be a beeble weird for all I care, I think it'll work. What I'm wondering is if he can be a 3/2 a la vithian renegades

    [Design/Construction] Lets build the Scuttlemutt Cube!

    Badderskull? (Stolen) He seems cool, but less cool and less good than other 5c options in my opinion

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    the rebel thing is an idea that has been floating around for a while now, and I mention the zombpyre thing because (IIRC) it has the same author (I think he mentioned it on Kranny's Podcast once?) The full custom cube maybe. It makes a fine counterexample of a (perfectly valid) thing we don't...
