    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Hence why I say "arguably." Some people really enjoy it, and if people like a format, it can't be the worst. There is absolutely nothing wrong with highlander type formats- CanLander is probably one of my favorite formats. The problem also isn't the multiplayer/political aspect. Although getting...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    I recommend everyone steer clear of Fractured Identity. It is such an un-fun card to play against, and it usually creates huge swings in the play of the average game. It can also be abused with cards that transform due to State-Based Effects (I think) like Garruk Relentless. Basically, don't...

    What are our opinions on: Roalesk, Apex Hybrid I had this at the WAR prerelease and thought it was pretty cool. It seems to line up with my target power level pretty well, too. Any thoughts?

    It's because they wanted to make an actual reprint instead of a functional reprint.

    Beacon of Destruction This seems interesting... o_O Anyone tried it? Is it playable in aggro or does it require a control/midrange shell to work?

    General Fight Club

    I don't really like either of these effects. They are very, very weak. I think Threaten effects in general aren't all that great in most situations (although I have blown out my opponent with/been blown out by them before in a couple of very specific situations). I usually don't like...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I have played with it in the past. It is really, really swingy. It usually deals between 4-10 damage. It kind of feels like a red Murder. I don't like all of the "draft matters" baggage that comes along with it, and I feel it usually ends up being more trouble than it's worth. No. Run Char if...

    Card/Deck UB Zombie Tokens

    Thanks for your post! I think you're missing the point of my suggesting some of the "traditional" zombie lords. Not every lord needs a critical mass of other members of it's respective tribe to be worth the slot. Take Cemetery Reaper. It turns on itself, and it makes a bunch of tokens which...

    Card/Deck UB Zombie Tokens

    We're getting very close to having a playable U/B zombies archetype in cube. As is, I'm going to be adding a zombies deck to mono-black in my list. You're missing some of the best cards though! Most of these are more generic "Tribal Zombies" payoffs than rewards for Amassing an Army, but I...

    I know the answer to this question is probably going to be dependent on how my new format ends up looking, but out of curiosity, which one of these do you like better in a Vacuum? Despark Mortify I like Mortify for it's simplicity, but I think Despark is probably just a stronger effect...

    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    I had Saheeli, Sublime Artificer in my deck today and it was pretty decent! I often found myself in weird situations where I wouldn't really find the "Make a 1/1" ability useful though... which was a little unfortunate. I also had a Ral, Storm Conduit in my deck (which only had 3 instants and or...

    Ulvenwald Mysteries will probably end up in more decks than Fecundity if you don't overtly support a token-based aristocrats strategy. I think Ulvenwald Mysteries is just a generally safer pick because it only gives it's owner value. I'd say Reach of Branches is probably the most playable of...

    General [WAR] War of the Spark

    I don't know- I'd probably pick up a couple of them if they were in english. The Japanese-only ruined it for me. It's a real shame too, since some of the Anime walkers look better than their "normal" counterparts. Have you guys seen Karn and Ugin?? Far better, and more powerful looking...
