Man I'm gonna miss core sets But I've been missing white boarders for a while now so I guess I'll get used to it.

So did it turn out everyone is pretty happy with the demolition golem design? Also I just realized pack seems to be more or less a green card crammed into black. Would everyone cube a green pack rat? Some designs I came up with over the last couple days Bog Lore {1}{B} Sorcery Return a...

Done and done!

I liked Saviors but maybe I'm the only one. Future sight was cool, Dissension was neat, I'm rather fond of Apocalypse, especially the role it had in the draft format. Man does this mean no more 3 set drafts?

I more or less consider cycling a control or combo theme. I haven't thought of it at all for aggro. I like green and black (sometimes white) cycles because I like seeing more cards in those colours and there is reanimator support. I'll tell you this is a peasant magic tactic in its heart and...

Hahahaha yeah colour issues are weird with those cards. My initial response to any statement like that is that you'd be playing a very different deck if you were in green. The blocking aspect would be way more relevant but you might also not be able to kill or bounce the equip target in response...

I sware I saw memory's journey and suffer the past in your last draft deck though!

I think that's the scary part to me. It's the shock. It's not really the protection. If it weren't shocking my idiots I could still be racing or forcing it to block because red is actually really good at forcing large creatures into defensive positions, because it's removal, if ineffective...

Yeah I made a huge post on this subject Grillo! About how Monolith cubes naturally evolved around taking advantage of the class of high power level cards with the most redundant names: OP Mana Rocks (And their best buddies unsymetrical sweepers and natural orders) The natural evolution this way...

Yeah you totally get my red control issue of often seeming like just a splash to make a different control deck's removal better. I actually really like how much pressure red can add in this era of every deck having high pick efficient bodies at most mana costs. I've played a lot of decks that...

Yeah I more or less see the sword as a card advantage engine that makes your elves not useless in the late game etc. Onderzeboot: I don't know what to tell ya, we've all lost like that. Did you feel like you would have won feeding it red 2/1s the rest of the game until your killed your...

Hold on, I had a thought.... Does Grim Monolith rely completely on synergy? I mean without big expensive idiots it's just like the worst land ever. Can you imagine playing a deck where most of the spells cost 1-2cc?

I wonder what that helix is flavored to be for.

Yeah if you read my response you'd note I covered the removal side of the protection too. Remember I played with these cards in constructed formats where you'd be thinking about having to see them over and over and over. Sword of fire and ice is an issue if you've made red's removal mainly...

did you see my post in the thread about whether or not a bunch of cards should be sold?

If you really wanted to be fair you might include wargear on that list. Souls is super good when there are a lot of nuance ways to use it, but it seems kinda like a 2-3 turn fog against a lot of decks in some cubes if you aren't pairing it with something. I'm really in the "include wargear"...

I kinda want you to be playing at least a little reanimation. Necromancy is super cool man and pretty fair. You have enough stuff supporting it right? Thought about that discard owl and upping your equipment power a bit? You have the blue cards to make attacking blue decks. Although light on the...

See I missed the sets with all the newer posts so I'm kinda lost. Cloud post quickly fell out of favor for the rampy decks of my era in favor of Tron for a number of reasons I cannot recall after a pint. I have a lot of experience in block battling 12 post decks which was absolutely zany to...

I'm gonna devote a little time to making a bunch of top of library ideas for this project again soon but I had a couple thoughts before I feel like responding to my own call for ideas: - In broad strokes kindles and rune snags sort of collecter effects have synergy with shuffle and card...

Unfair things I learned about this week: Phyrexian Reclamation Kitchen Finks Grafted Wargear Lingering Souls
