Ajani over Elspeth? Hmm... it's funny that you mention "clogged board", because that really doesn't happen in our cube. Well, it does, but it happens at the 0 - 2 table. Some people seem to draft decks that clog the board but they always seem terrible. The good decks produce punchy and swingy...

I think you always want a curve. What I've found from tooling with the Eldrazi Domain cube is that players (even me, the designer) want there to be variation in power level so that there are maximally say 3-4 cards in a pack that are "first pickable". You can also use the distribution of these...

To be fair Thirst for Knowledge's instant speed is a pretty big contributor to its value. I found Night's Whisper to be pretty borderline. I ran it at 420 but not at 360. I wouldn't begrudge anyone for running it or cutting it.

Well in that case, yes, it's a pretty fun profession. I basically get paid to make sense of things and have full control over how I make sense of said things and get to spend my days thinking of fun ways to visualize and communicate results and ideas. Also, Statisticians are needed everywhere...

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but in either case, yes.

Oh, yeah! Didn't see that one. Mana Tithe is Cube's best counterspell.

Respectfully disagree here Chris.

Context: In Belgium many people use AZERTY keyboards instead of QWERTY. Tim is a student in college, and is on a lab computer while studying for his statistics exam. I'm an American statistician using my normal QWERTY keyboard. He made his particular excuse to the worst possible audience.

I have no sympathy for these ridiculous excuses!

OP updated with current list (cubetutor) and my utility land stack. We're recording another 8-man tomorrow night. Wish me luck!

Yeah, these types of combinations are a lot of fun.

Looking forward to playing it. A local player is cracking a box and has invited me to join in his draft. He'll take all the cards home, and there's no cost for me, so it's pretty much ideal.

Because I'm really lazy and love this card:

I'm not serious about a lot of them. But it's fun to think about, right?

Possible replacements for Stupor: Go nuts everybody!

Hi guys, exciting news today! Eric and I have partnered with Matt Kranstuber as part of our continuing efforts to build riptidelab.com into the premier cubing website. Matt is best known for hosting the incredible "Joy of Cubing" podcast and StarCityGame's "In Contention" podcast. He is one of...

Oh boy, what don't they do? Well, I play a ton of sacrifice and threaten effects, and both Sarkhans are nuts. The last time I played with Sarkhan the Mad he spent all draft turning little dorks into 5/5 dragons. In my cube it's not uncommon to see either Sarkhan involved in a "steal your...

So Stupor is coming out, but I don't know for what just yet.
