    Article Top 8 Most Oppressive Cube Cards

    CML, I love the way you write and I love the things you say. Props, bro. Anybody here enjoyed playing with Jace TMS? I've played him in only one draft ever, in a friend's cube. I actually really enjoyed using him, though I dunno if my opponents had any fun. Actually it was a testament to the...

    Wow, this level of Smash Bros is something I don't even know about. I just jam Brawl with my flatmates and eagerly anticipate the one for Wii U. We don't even have a Wii U.

    General I actually played magic this weekend.

    I'm not at all sorry to be kinda necroing, but I Recently Played Magic And These Were My Thoughts. I've been on a massive binge of cutting powerful cards and trying to balance archetypes recently, and here were the results. We played a 6-man team daft, deciding to team draft while we were...

    It looks like I'm about to have a Myr Battlecube: Me and 4 other players, but we can't find the 6th person >:C EDIT: The phone buzzed right when I posted it. We have 6 people! Now, how to make a cube pun with Thopter Assembly or something...

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    I'm getting a draft together tomorrow in a kebab shop in Zurich. It's chilled place, they don't seem to mind. Every now and then we buy another burger or a cider or something, so it works out fine for them.

    I'm looking forward to the wonderful ironic day when we have 100s of people on here all the time, and someone goes and makes like balduviantradingpost.com where they talk cube and complain about us being closed minded because we don't redeisgn all our cards to be double faced or something.

    Article [M14] Lifebane Zombie

    Lifebane Zombie hits Thragtusk and Kitchen Finks, which are both pretty good against aggro. I'd say being on the play and removing Finks the turn before it comes down is pretty amazing for an aggro deck.

    General Fun Budget Cube Cards

    I really like Charmbreaker Devils. It's a lot of fun. In the right deck it'll get you a burn spell, counterspell or draw spell every turn, then attack for 8. In a lot of cubes it's probably not fast enough or powerful enough, but I like it. Also for fun budget cards, I really like Sphinx of...

    Card/Deck Fencing Ace

    How about Ear Bumbra? EDIT: That's not the one I meant at all, I wanted Oar Bumbra.

    Card/Deck Fencing Ace

    Have any of you tried Moldervine Cloak? I see it in some cube lists. Is it actually there to enable some other graveyard deck? I don't want to make people think there's an archetype that there isn't.

    In a Strange Land

    I really want to see that video! Magic sentences can be amazing outside their context. "So I plowed his mom and beat into the red zone with my wurm." This is all I know about the Oxford comma: EDIT: Thanks for the decent answer on the comma! It's such a pointless little technicality, but I...

    Card/Deck Aetherling

    My blue 6's are Draining Whelk Arcanis the Omnipotent Deadeye Navigator Nucklavee And Sphinx of Uthuun in the 7 slot. Actually I think it's about time to cut a blue finisher, since 5 already contains Meloku and Teferi, which is quite enough. The choice must be Arcanis, but I can't bring myself...

    Forum Aesthetics and Usability

    Hey I have a cool idea. On your profile page there should be a place to add a link to your cube list, if you have one online. Then on your posts you could have a little link to your cube list under your avatar. I guess it's redundant, but I made this masterpiece of a diagram, so this is what I...

    In a Strange Land

    Cool, let's all say "anthrocon" and "fur" a lot and get more of them coming here. Though I furget if that is actually how web searches work. I can't stand scrabble. My experience with it is a continuous series of let downs. I stare at my tiles for ages looking for a better word than "and" or...
