    Yeah, Game of Thrones' last season was a bit of a stinker. Let's hope Season 6 picks it up as they venture into the unknown. On the plus side.... no:

    To be fair Goblin Bombardment is fairly narrow, as far as cards go. Underpowered... well, that depends on the context. Obviously it can hack it in Legacy in the right deck/hands, but it's not an obvious bomb.

    Just thought I should chime in that if you are going to put more Flash in your environment, conditional counterspells become more valuable. Stuff like Negate is great when you have alternative plays if the condition isn't met.

    Instant speed discard is no joke.

    *SPOILERS* Star Wars: The Force Awaken

    I should point out that Death Star blowing up planet in A New Hope also happened super early, but the way they sold it with Leia's reaction was way better and made it feel more impactful (also Obi Wan's reaction).

    I think Baloth is a pretty important card in my cube, the lifegain is pretty invaluable. I don't really see a need for Smiter in my environment though.

    Just putting this out there, if you at all like Girls you should watch Please Like Me. It's kind of the gay, Australian equivalent (written, produced and acted by one talented twenty-something), but the characters are far more endearing. Every episode has wonderful dialogue, and there are three...

    This Gideon looks like he wouldn't have lines if he appeared on Fargo.

    Having put a dozen or so hours into the multiplayer now, I will say that Halo 5 is the best one since Halo 1. Sure the campaign is a turd, but I didn't like 2's campaign, or 3's, ODST's, etc. This multiplayer has tight mechanics, great level design, and a little cosmetics "card opening /...

    Masters of None seems pretty wonderful so far, which I didn't really expect because I haven't previously really been on the Aziz train.

    Putrid Imp fails my "would I actually include it in the final 40 of a Gravecrawler deck" test, which would indeed seem to suggest a false synergy.

    This seems like the type of card that would possibly see some play in constructed with counterspell wars, but being uncounterable is so much less relevant in Cube. Especially if you are a deck that can pay :u::u:, the density of counterspells you will face is super low.

    My solution would be to add a "Triland of <choice>" slot, if you want one. The full cycle of 10 is too much, but letting one player get their on-color tri-land is generally fine.

    Card/Deck Eldrazi Spawns/Scions

    Ah, I thought this was going to be a discussion comparing the two. The Spawn cards I've included in the main cube have played pretty well. Growth Spasm and Nest Invader are great, and Pawn of Ulamog is useful, but in a more narrow capacity. For the E-Domain updates I don't think I'm...

    I like this argument. Basically, your fixing will be pretty aggro-friendly if you already have double shock/fetch, and what you do from there kind of adds texture in terms of how you want playing / drafting to play out.

    I like that Oath of Nissa being Legendary is super duper irrelevant, but is there only for the sake of the cycle.
