I'm not obligated to do shit. :) But, I will say one thing. If CFB hadn't accepted my application, I wouldn't have tried to write anywhere else. They've been my favorite Magic site for as long as I've been playing. Their shop UI can be clunky at times (if you don't know about their Wishlist...

In another thread we were discussing Living Death, which I consider to be an awful cube card by virtue of having no home. Sure, it's a "build-around", but there's really no redundancy. Lack of redundancy leads to lack of incentive to properly build-around the card, as, if you truly commit, your...

I was thinking of something more general, kind of a discussion behind the philosophy of including custom cards, player reactions, etc.

Are people really that familiar with these examples?

So what you guys are saying is that I need Precursor Golem for my Pod decks?

Hah, don't worry about it, I don't think anyone was offended. And what is this, somebody apologizing on a Magic forum? Did you not read the rules???

Happy Backwoods might also be too strong, considering Loothouse is strong(ish), and that's just straight looting. Like the idea of more card draw in GB though.

Err... cube errata and custom cards. It'd be like a Skype call or something style, I'd record it than transcribe the good parts for an article. I'll make a list of topics sometime.

This is pretty elegant design, I approve! I also really like your quote about errata. I think I may write a CFB article about cube errata in a couple months, would you be up for an interview?

I think there's a big discussion to be had on the subject, but I am considering removing all "must remove" artifacts / enchantments from my cube, and stripping nearly all the artifact removal with it.

Hey, thanks for joining us! I hope you enjoy your stay!

Well, I mean, consider how good of a finisher Creeping Tar Pit is, and it doesn't gain life and can be bolted. And needs to be activated on your turn.

I like the Scrollhouse. Yagmoth's House seems massively unplayable. I wonder if Deathrite Wastes isn't massively OP.

Is it mainly the colorless bomb thing that people are having issues with? Because I love opening a Pack 2 bomb in another color and weighing whether it's worth it for me to jump into a new color / abandon an existing color to get there. If everything is flat power level, this doesn't really...

Okay, so, you say it's bad because it's a 1/1 temporarily, but, Christ, it's not for blocking anyways. Almost all cube removal that kills a 1/1 also kills a 3/3, and turning Black is actually a form of protection against black removal. The life loss is almost always irrelevant. And people run...

My personal emotional response was along the lines of "does it even matter", followed by the lack of satisfaction in knowing I had made a sweet / correct pick.

Power-level wise, how do you think it compares to white's other 3-power 2-drops? Cloistered Youth Daring Skyjek Accorder Paladin (in cube, obviously)

To be clear that doesn't shut down things like Dark Confidant, correct?

That's strange, I think I would cut Jitte on power level concerns way way before Jace. Jace doesn't even top the list of most oppressive cube Planeswalkers.
