    General When Is Fixing Too Good?

    Not sure if it's relevant to the conversation, but my last draft deck is an example of a two-color double splash deck: Note that there was the cost of using picks on fixing to get the Tropical Island, Volcanic Island and Breeding Pool. Was a little surprised to get both UG lands, because...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    New Kiora's ability is better than Grisly Salvage. When I played with it, the ability always drew 2 cards. I really like the design. Kiora, Master of the Depths

    There's no way I'm going to pull this off. :(

    General When Is Fixing Too Good?

    I have won with my fair share of 4-color cube decks but their win percentage is always a function of the number of inexperienced drafters at the table. The color dynamics reach a good equilibrium with better drafters, so I don't really see it as something you need to explicitly design against...

    Card/Deck Loners

    I should note that the loner strategy was considered a design failure in Avacyn Restored. Even if you can swing it, I am not sure how you integrate it well with the rest of the cube.

    Sweet, I'm jealous. That must have been a fun era of Arsenal to watch. Wonder how well Leicester can finish out the season.

    Had to get a ticket from the ticket exchange. Been refreshing all weekend to find one, and finally nabbed this one: It's a seat closest to the midfield line, with a good view of the pitch. Would prefer a few rows down, but I won't complain. Should be a fun one. The Southampton ticket is the...

    If JW is me, then not exactly. I just have not a lot of room for Abzan cards. The big thing about Doran is that he neuters aggressive creatures far more than he pumps anything else. Cube is full of aggressive 3/2s and 2/1s and 4/1s that get way worse when Doran is on the field. Building around...

    Should be memorable either way.

    I wouldn't say mana never got addressed. Things are wayyy better with 25 fetchlands than with 10, and I am supplementing with Mirage fetchlands. I feel pretty good about the density of fixing in the environment, even though I'm on about 6.5 fixers per drafter.

    Visiting England for a week, starting next Thursday. Going to try to soak in as much live football as I can. Just got a ticket to Southampton v Tottenham on Saturday, and will catch Arsenal v Man City on Monday night.

    I could write a program that converts my list into a forum visual spoiler, would that be useful?

    Card/Deck Birthing Pod

    Oh man, I love my Google doc. Not sure what to do about CT because it won't actually have accurate list information. If I include all the cards people are going to think I have a weird 460 card clunker, and if I sample a list and hide cards in the sideboard I think people will only look at the...

    Willing to test this card. Suggest a cut?

    General Cards you want tested in the MODO cube.

    Could also add that multiplaneswalker slot people were talking about, or another tricolor slot. Or combine the two into 3 slots.

    Hall of Triumph sounds pretty underpowered. Cursed Scroll still plays fine, although it feels like another red card. Not sure what I want Spellskite for. I always feel like a turd when I make a huge Carrion Feeder and then it eats a removal spell. For the Wasteland... uh, I've played 4...
