    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Crucible has proven itself in my cube. The main reason you don't see it much is that it archetypes its best in, like Wildfire, are so well-tested that I don't have to draft them anymore. More over, the decks I test the most tend to be ones that don't want either card so they are...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Yes, the question is: Do I need to spend three slots on this kind of effects? Or is two enough for my cube size? I like the variety, for me the question is if I really need the slots. Because a green 3 is a very contested space, for example.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Question. Do I need two or all three of these cards? Life from the Loam Crucible of Worlds Ramunap Excavator I'm thinking the last one might not actually be necessary

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Ok, I'm going to start with these two very small changes: Llanowar Elves -> Ignoble Hierarch Foundation Breaker -> Reclamation Sage And then see what more I can change.

    No matter how big and OP your Eldrazi is, there's probably some jank from 20 years ago that defeats it.

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    I don't think you need much to create artifact aggro decks. Strictly speaking, I don't support artifact aggro in my cube, it just comes up naturally. The reason is that I have a lot of good support for artifact decks in URb and enough versatile fodder that it just comes up naturally. The only...

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    White was the best colour in my cube and it might still be. You have great creatures, a good range of high-quality, broad interaction and it pairs well with all other colours. You actually run Skyclave Apparition, Swords to Plowshares and Path to Exile so I would be surprised if it wasn't good...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    The issue with Jolrael is that she keeps reading better than she actually is. Look at the deck you posted, there are only four cards that trigger Jolrael and one of them is a land. I've often found myself I just didn't have enough cards in my deck to support her, even if I tried. I soften find...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Talking about tribal, I don't think this card really works: Jolrael, Mwonvuli Recluse I feel I end up cutting her or that I run her in shells with so few creatures she would get blow up the moment she got into play.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Since my goal is to finish the current iteration of the cube, I'm going to add a few cards to round things out: Priest of the Blood Rite Cathar Commando Yawgmoth, Thran Physician The Antiquities War Yawgmoth may be overkill, but I don't know what else to add and it's a fun card. -- I want to...

    sam's 450: the second coming

    To tag a user simple put @ before their name, like this @inscho First, I'm used to very high quality fixing (Double duals, double fetches) but I feel you don't run enough. Many of your archetypes would be more varied and fun if they could extend into a third colour and the quality of cards is...

    Nanonox's 1vs1 cube

    Thanks for the shoutout Nanonox! First, before looking at the mana, I would look at what kind of storm you can to support. If you want to keep it as a small archetype, you should look at maximizing the impact per slot. I think the highest impact of all cards is in Dream Halls, then Lion's Eye...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Yeah, I think that if you had three supported combo decks using most of the same pieces, it could work. But that's a lot of effort and it leads to even more implications down the line. I also don't think adding spell-based combo to my cube would work. It really is based around gradual advantage...
