I think rogue actually is very very playable all by itself. It's such a utility card in that it provides a lot of bodies (some with evasion) as well as granting whatever fatty you have a way to become a very short clock.

zendikar's roil I drafted a really sweet GB control deck using this and a languish among other things. Is it worth running in cube? I'm really not sure if its on the strong or weak side. During the draft I got a good 4-5 bodies out of it and plays nicely with ramp cards, so I think it does...

So I saw Quirion Dryad (arguably a poor card) and Managorger Hydra (arguably a pretty good card) and thought to myself, is there a subtle theme here? Green cards that can be splashed in any of the Jeskai-colored spell decks? Are there any good green cantrips that you'd wanna splash? Vines of...

Is this just like, a general abstraction of how you want the packs to be perceived or are you actually seeding the packs?

I'd actually think it'd be sweet if we get an updated serra angel. A 4/4 vigilance beater but with some smart upside that makes it a bit more exciting and gives it more play. Not sure what, maybe a tithe or some way to manipulate the game in the control players favor?

Is there an overlap in making ub an interesting color pair as a tempo/control player by looking at black's capabilities as a control color? I'm considering moving somethings over into different sections of the color pie in my cube, and making blue and black more stand alone control colors (ie...

Personally I'm a big fan of defining color pairs by taking one game-mechanical aspect of each color and mixing them together. The classical UB one would be control, where blue card advantage and counterspell pairs up with black removal and hand disruption. I'd like to talk some about how much we...

What would the spell oriented aggro decks look like?

Uhh he doesn't?

I mean neither brimaz nor crusader are especially interesting cards imo, they're both "very efficent 3-drops" and it's not like theres a shortcomming of interesting options there right?

I think the -1/-1 ought to be a -1 ability?

Ainok Survivalist does uh, trigger deathmist. edit: and that's why its even up on the table I see when scrolling up two posts :p

It sounds like a sort of durdly prowess trigger-enabler?

Bandwagon time I believe, I've heard wishes for more control cards in my cube.

Fetch Shock Bounce Scry sounds like an almost new-school throwback to the initial power cube mana base. I like others have found the bounceland-scry package pretty intriguing but I don't know if I got room for it in my cube. Tell me how it ends up working!

The last one they made was pretty good though. If we are to judge by that card, they have certainly touched interesting design space using the landfall mechanic.

Eew! Make that command "Where X is the largest power among creatures you control" or something otherwise it's going to be a real pain to do all the combat math. Otherwise, kinda cool command.

What about moving it all a turn behind? Elvish Mystic becomes leaf gilder

Double deathtouch!

I could try that out. I have pod still in the cube. There's of course a slight danger in clogging things up, but running a few more pod-friendly creatures in green and white to help solidify the theme?
