Sometimes Bitterblossom is super slow and makes you feel bad for playing it. It's no Lingering Souls, that's for sure. But then again you don't run LS so maybe things are different.

Yeah, Birthing Pod is a pretty solid 3. Did I not mention it? I know I suggested it to Eric at one point in time.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy not having Reanimator in my cube. It's kind of a one-or-the-other thing, as I want to play Entomb and friends for the black aggro stuff, and don't want hyper-consistent reanimator floating around. You can still get cool decks like this one, just have to be a bit more creative.

Yeah, on further inspection the Geopede was terrible. But I'm really scratching my head for 2's. This deck really needs Goyfs to apply pressure, and I don't have a suitable replacement at the moment.

I tried swapping in Plated Geopede and Geopede has been very non-terrible so far.

I see these 5-color zoo decks playing a couple Noble Hierarchs, but I only have one so I tried out Birds of Paradise instead. BoP is so much worse than Hierarch. The only real advantage is that BoP can get in for 5 evasive damage off of a Might of Alara.

Where did this UR Faeries list come from? http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Digital/MagicOnlineTourn.aspx?x=mtg/digital/magiconline/tourn/5798530 3 nearly identical lists in the Top 8 of a Modern Premier.

Hmm... with 12 packs each player only gets 30 - 36 picked cards. Then you get decks that are as terrible as Winchester decks (or worse). Never read the comments I suppose.

We'll throw this one to the audience. Which one makes you want to play five colors? Maelstrom Archangel Child of Alara

I like how Ryan became me halfway through the story.

You classify Murakami as sci-fi? I thought it was pretty squarely in the magical realism camp.

Yeah, but... it's not like you have to be doing nothing at the same time either.

We'll work on this, but audience feedback also helps. We did a sound-check and nobody told me that Eric was coming through so quietly. Let us know guys!

Interested in seeing his take on it. I think other people have done a lot more grid drafting than I have.

Psst, what are you, the Modern format police?

Holy 2-drops batman!

Thanks for posting here! Regarding classification, I wrote an article about it here: http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/cube-design-declassified-information/ However the ChannelFireball site is down currently so you may have to check back later. The article is pretty comprehensive and I...
