I love the Crater Hellion suggestion. Squee, Goblin Nabob is great too for expanding red's ouvre. Tuktuk the Explorer is an all-star that works in the right context (Greater Gargadon, etc.). I will personally say that I LOVE Goblin Bombardment in red. Pyreheart Wolf deserves mentioning in that...

Eric and I were talking about it, and basically you guys are free to make submissions of whatever you think of. We'll set up an email account for that. The other thing we'll look for is a slight touch up to go from a casual "forumy" tone to something more "websitey". We don't want people to...

Well, this whole conversation is really getting me excited to make a more graveyard-focused cube, but I still need to finish churning out that Eldrazi-Domain monstrosity first.

Also, I can't believe you don't have all my articles mentally cataloged... :P

Too lazy to type it up again. This card puts the Eternal in Eternal Witness.

I'll give Tombstalker another look. It's one of those cards that is "bad" by conventional cube wisdom, but, I'm pretty far from conventional at this point. Zombie Cutthroat was a suggestion for jumping from 3 to 6 with Pod. I am skeptical, but that's not going to stop me from testing it! I...

Vibe, it may be useful (if you haven't already) to cross-reference with the MTGS thread on the topic. If we're going to publish something on it, we want to be at least as comprehensive as what you could find elsewhere. I also think we want to consider whether this is a complete primer, or more...

We are launching a frontpage content site! These changes will roll out over the coming weeks, but for now, feast your eyes on this prototype: http://moxmoxbalancego.wordpress.com/ RiptideLab and You! With a new front page, we will need new content. This is where you all come in! RiptideLab...

From your list, I really like Loaming Shaman. Green is shallow on 3's anyways, and the stats aren't too embarrassing. I think this is in the good compromise region you're looking for of "narrow effect on a card that has other value". Dryad Militant does some work here. You could always...

I love this thread, but it's smack dab in exam season and all my regulars are tied up at the moment. This deck looks awesome Chris. I always liked Sewer Nemesis, and I just don't have room for him at the moment. Liliana + Deep Analysis is pretty awesome.

When I used Kher Keep, I kept copies of these ugly-ass guys around: Your list looks pretty solid. I do wonder how often Pendelhaven is relevant, but since it ETB untapped I suppose there's a pretty low bar.

Welp, CML's cracked the case. No need for an article after all. :)

I will say, I cut all Reanimation from black and gave it more of a recursive-aggro focus, and it's been a lot more fun to play with (opinion, obviously), and the overall power level is more on par with the rest of the cube. I'll probably put back in reanimator in some capacity (likely when I...

Hey Vibe, if you have one, I'd love to see a decklist from a recent Storm deck.

For reference: Consuming Contract At the beginning of your upkeep, choose one—You draw two cards and lose 2 life; or destroy target creature; or __________*; or you lose the game. You can't choose the same mode twice. *This ability originally read "Cast a spell without paying its mana cost."...

I was about to throw a flavor fit about a non two-color cascade card, then I remembered these guys:

Interesting... I'll keep this in mind if I get there, but I imagine I'll be playing with the pre-cons for some time.

Well, I'm not actually proposing a new system, just trying to reveal the underlying mechanics behind competition for cards at a draft table and what you should really be thinking about when designing these things, as well as a case-study at how these concepts have been applied in retail draft...

http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/247b Anybody a fan of any of the YMTC4 submissions? How did you all vote?

I will say, I hope we didn't come across as overly negative. This is something that I think is a really innovative idea, and I look forward to using it for cards that I really am unsure about. Stuff like Blood Scrivener comes to mind. One of the best things it does is that it forces you to...
