    This is a thread for assorted Cube Bullshit. (Moved from GBS) So on Saturday I played in a PTQ (went 5-4. My deck was better than that, but "slightly better than average" just about describes me as a magic player). After 9 rounds I finally managed to get 6 people together for a cube draft! I...

    The Book Thread

    I think I need to find a book that I will enjoy reading. I recently reread the first three Harry Potter books in a few weeks, and blew through the Scott Pilgrim "books" the other day, but mostly I'm forcing myself to read shit like Moby Dick, which just takes me forever. I miss the old days when...

    What non-Magic shit are you up to?

    All of them, some of them several times. When I was a kid these were my favorite books for a long time. I think we should start a book thread. To the thread machine! wooooooooooooosh!

    What non-Magic shit are you up to?

    nooooooooooooo I haven't seen it yet. Though having read the book 4+ times you can't really spoil it.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I have never given that card more than a passing glance. Let me know if its play value outweighs how ugly it is.

    What non-Magic shit are you up to?

    Man, so many good gigs in London right now, and I am missing them all. I was at Trentemoller lat weekend, supported by Den Sorte Skole (free album this year, definitely my favorite album from this year). Yesterday was Mount Kimbie and today was Submotion Orchestra. I missed them both cuz they...

    Eric Chan's Modern cube (405)

    Looks like I'm a couple days behind on the Specter's Shroud thing, but I really want to equip it to Fencing Ace and attack on turn three. That's awesome!

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

    I say 4. It might be more. I'm just looking at Battle Mastery. Battle Mastery is not cubable though, really, it also doesn't give +1/+1 and doesn't turn into a creature when you lose it. On the other hand this feels a little similar to Angelic Destiny, so I think 4 is right. It would be neat to...

    General HWO MAENY CRTAUERE??

    Cubetutor says 197/418 = 47.1% My google doc says 211/418 = 50.5% I dunno what's with that, I thought the lists were the same. I once drafted Visions, which was so creature heavy I ended up with 20 creatures in my deck and had a load of fun. Lots of good combat situations, lots of attacking...

    Candy Crush Saga Review

    Yeah I gotta admit, I'm not all that interested in Candy Crush Saga, so I only checked your article out briefly. It takes a lot for me to play a videogame; it's not really something I care to read about. (usually a criterion is multiplayer. I game for fun with friends. Last night I played...

    Candy Crush Saga Review

    Man I loved Sharknado. It was the first SyFy film I saw that I was actually satisfied after. All the others are such balls I can't stand them. They're not even amusing bad. Sharknado was so over the top, and some of the stuff in it was seriously awesome. Anyway that's my own oppinion. I am...

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    Blue attacking decks used to be the best decks in my cube, but I haven't seen one in a very long time. I don't know why. It should be working now, but, as I always lament, the cube is drafted pretty rarely. Anyway the deck was all about T1 Isamaru, T2 a counterspell or 2 drop or hwatever, then...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    I run Scion of Vitu-Ghazi, but we draft so seldom that I haven't had a chance to try it yet. It works well with a lot of cards in my cube, theoretically.

    Sorry Jason, Lucre's post was more attractive.

    Yeah I really like that card. I had him for ages and nobody used him. Maybe it's time. Actually come to think of it Polukranos is a lot better.

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    Delver is something I really want to get working in my cube. To that aim I cut Delver yesterday. I want to work out what it needs and then add like three delvers. What do you think was wrong with it?

    HELP WANTED! (тȟᶒ Ůῇẗᶖƫȴәᶑ Ḉụḅẽ: A Journey of Wonder and Adventure)

    Well I finally ended up cutting my custom cards naturally, so here's the list on cubetutor: http://cubetutor.com/viewcube/1461. Recent changes are a push to make durdly decks work, with value reanimation cards in black and Birthing Pods in green. Removal was way too common after the last change...
