I lean into the first approach, it makes the individual cards more approachable in other decks, instead of always looking to be used as an A+B combo. I'd never put a Zombify into my deck, but I could see myself adding Animate Dead to highroll someone off a discard spell or just to bring back a...

I opened a sealed pool of my cube and my immediate takeaways are: Have clear power outliers (that ideally require some commitment). You want signposts that signal the major decisions you have to make with your card pool to cut down on the noise. If you get a sealed pool of a "Jund cube" you're...

You mean you squintron it?

A sizeable portion of the cards omit a relevant part of how the mechanic functions. None of Besotted Knight, Ferocious Werefox, Giant Inheritance, Lord Skitter's Blessing, Not Dead After All, Unassuming Sage or Vantress Transmuter inform you that you have a limit of one Role per creature...

Werefox Bodyguard Gadwick's First Duel Hearth Elemental Raging Battle Mouse The Huntman's Redemption Up the Beanstalk Elusive Otter Questing Druid I feel like Werefox Bodyguard is wordier than it needs to be, and I'm partially holding out hope they will make an artifact creature one that's a...

Faun isn't much of a madness enabler considering you can only discard lands. More of a Loam payoff, if anything.

I can't imagine there are a lot of decks that want all three modes, but 8-rack comes to mind I guess. Which I doubt many people support in their cubes.

Let me just "sneak by" this inferno titan. Does kind of feel like it should have given skulk instead. I don't know what it is with adventures, I feel like it should be a slam-dunk mechanic, but the individual rarely ever end up being what I want.

It's only been like 1 day since I talked about how I'm not a Timmy, but don't be mistaken, I'm not adding this card for your sake. I'm adding this to cantrip off Murderous Cut, March of Wretched Sorrow and No One Left Behind.

I have seen way too many examples of people jamming this card in legacy, so it probably has some promise. Skeptical of how much staying power it has though. Being colorless makes it quite useful in a draft environment.

Yeah that was the basic idea, and I imagine it works pretty well just like that, but then I decided to get weird with it.

Probably a hot take but Elusive Otter seems broken. Really like this saga. Solid floor, some build around potential, gives you this pump effect that you really want to capitalize on.

It wouldn't have that if the text box was entirely different.

Yes, sure. My point is that if they are going to make a modal card, one side of it probably shouldn't be an 8-mana sorcery-speed Shared Summons with a downside. There's a myriad of other ways to approach the cards to make it less lopsided, like look at fewer cards, only put one creature into...

It's not entirely a shared-deck format, but I have been theorizing something kind of comparable. Haven't made an actual card list and playtested it yet though, but the broad strokes are: - Small decks, 10 cards, maybe a few more, with no lands - Lower life total, let's say 10 for consistency -...

Thunderous Debut might as well just say "as an additional cost", feels like a design with a lot of unnecessary text. Happy to see double-spelling coming back, I'll be playing the Raging Battle Mouse. I want to like Horned Loch-Whale, but it's a bit too much of just a good control win-con for my...

Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit I wouldn't mind another OuaT, personally.

It actually encourages you to specialize since otherwise you're forced to stone rain yourself every turn.

They're solidly playable, and maybe the card-version of them being horrible cards helps what would otherwise be a feelsbad for cycling them, but they're really not cards I can get very excited about picking. The troll sees play in legacy death's shadow as a reanimate target fwiw.
