    General Emotional Spikes in Cube Design

    Can I just say that it's really fun to transform a magic card? I love how Wizards has been pretty creative about the different flip conditions. Definitely feels better in paper though, love sliding the card out and flipping it over.

    General Gift Shop Draft

    Good call with the Burning Vengeance. In addition to format suggestions I'm up for card / package suggestions too. Probably going to include every 2-color and 3-color charm, some mono-color incentives. Maybe even some sideboard cards? As long as they're not too hateful, I could see it being...

    General Gift Shop Draft

    The thing I like about the varying value idea is that it brings an interesting draft dynamic. Or maybe it doesn't? I agree that it is added complexity, and not necessarily needed for the initial proof of concept.

    General Gift Shop Draft

    My issue with ordering is that the forum is already very slow when it comes to taking picks in "order". Pack passing is already a bottleneck, I don't want the gift shop to be another bottleneck. Much rather have it be first-come, first-serve, regardless of what that brings. Would you still...

    General Gift Shop Draft

    Problem is we'll be using card-image tags, so we can't really create our own "blank cards" here.

    I mean, probably it's a dumb idea. Maybe.

    General Gift Shop Draft

    Suggestions for streamlining? My plan would be only to run this format online for forum drafts, where there is more time to ponder and brew between picks.

    Yup. Gone gone. First come, first serve.

    General Gift Shop Draft

    I had an idea for a modified draft format I'd like to call the "gift shop" draft format. It takes inspiration from the Utility Everything Draft and the mtgcube blog's crazy format. Format: the following cards will be seeded into packs. Mox Ruby Sol Ring Black Lotus Blacker Lotus These cards...

    I think Volley is more interesting.

    Manlands can make for super interesting games. I don't think the hellbent scenario is the only one that applies.

    General Emotional Spikes in Cube Design

    Haven't been able to read this whole thread yet, but I would like to mention one of my early cube experiments. Flash Woodfall Primus When I put these two together, I just felt bad for my opponent. Sometimes it's hard to know how something will play out emotionally until you run it.

    I was gone for a week and riplab was blocked from the internet I was using. What's the best post that happened in the meantime?

    If they print this on MODO I'll let you know.

    The TV Thread

    I like it, about 5-6 episodes in. It's a fun show, but for me it's the opposite of binge-watch material. One episode and I'm set for a few days. Probably more a fan of her stand-up than her show though.

    General Expensive Eldrazi Domain Cards

    I don't know, Kytheon almost never flips in my main cube, interested in seeing how it performs here. Last time I played E Domain, Kytheon hadn't been printed, but it seemed on-theme, so I'm testing it for now.

    Just for anybody who hasn't been following, we're building the Eldrazi Domain cube on MTGO. Most of the cards that don't overlap with the other cubes are either cheap or have already been donated, so we'll have a new cube in the lineup for the next forum draft. If you've ever wanted to draft E...

    General Evolving Wilds in the basic land box

    Evolving Wilds To simplify the E. Domain cube, I was going to replace the Utility Land Draft with a huge pile of Evolving Wilds. The cube has a big emphasis on playing multiple colors, and there is double fetch / shock / dual in place, which is more efficient mana fixing. Or maybe a fixed...
